Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

South AfricaThat I couldn't stay longer.
I loved everything! This place was a so clean and comfy, I will defs be back when I'm in JHB. Sharon was amazing, she even managed to arrange a ride home from the concert we attended. It is clear that they know what they are doing at 49 on Cherry. Its quiet and beautiful. I loved that you could do your own breakfast at your own leisure time and not have to rush and get up early just to have breakie.

United StatesThe suite was a tad smaller than what we are used to but there was room for everyone.
49 on Cherry is perfect for a family stay. The spacious backyard/garden is the real highlight. Our little ones loved the trampoline and my husband even used the gas grill. Our only regret is that it was a bit too cold for us to use the large pool. Sharon was wonderful in letting us check in very early as we were on our way to Lion Park.

ZimbabweWe have just spent a wonderful week at 49 on Cherry. Sharon went out of her way to welcome us, and I don’t think we have slept in such comfortable beds with such quality linen before. I will be dreaming about those beds! Everything was spotless in our suite, laundry was done super fast, and the garden and trampoline a bonus. We highly recommend 49. Fast internet, secure property, and great facilities.

BotswanaHonestly, I loved everything. However, the host can provide kitchen towels just for one to keep the kitchen counters clean and dry.
I honestly like everything. The host was very friendly. The place is secure, with parking. The facilities in the room are exceptional. I was happy and the place catered for my toddler who enjoyed playing on the trampoline.
