How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewBreakfast was excellent as was dinner and the location very convenient for our activities. My meeting location was just down the road. Facilities good and Donald is extremely attentive.
The bed in our room was extremely hard. The checkout was a bit cumbersome as my husband had to enter details of banking etc all over again despite having already settled the account on booking and only needing to settle extras.

Verified reviewThis was an oasis inside Johannesburg. 58 on Hume is a beautifully decorated, expansive (I would guess) former home that has been converted to a small hotel. It is absolutely stunning and the Proprietor Michelle has thought of absolutely everything you could ever want or need during your stay. Our room was very large and extremely comfortable. The living area was beautifully appointed and so inviting with a nice fire and views of the beautiful yard and pool area. Michelle and her team are incredible welcoming and accommodating. It was the perfect set up and we will definitely stay again! And the breakfast- exceptional!
Absolutely nothing.

Verified reviewLocated in a quiet street, the rooms are cozy and comfortable with high quality bed linen and towels. There are nice teas, coffee and small treats. The garden with pool and veranda is lush and beautiful. The staff is very friendly and happy to assist.
I booked the last room available and probably therefore got the least nice one. It was street facing and overlooked the parking area. There was no door to the bathroom, hence no privacy if staying with two people. Because there is no bathroom door, the room was light in the early morning despite the blockout curtains in the bedroom. The breakfast was excellent but although I had notified the guesthouse that I am gluten free, there was no gluten free bread on the first day. This was however rectified on the second morning. I didn’t appreciate the dogs begging at the breakfast table every day.
Thank you for your feedback; it truly helps us improve our services. I have taken note of your concerns regarding the bathroom blinds and will ensure that we install block out blinds over the existing blinds. We specially prepared gluten-free bread for you. Unfortunately, the bread did not rise properly on the first day, which prevented us from serving it to you then. However, after a second attempt, we achieved the perfect texture and flavour for you to enjoy. In addition to the bread, we also baked gluten-free snacks that were placed in your room. While it is true that our dogs interact with regular guests, particularly those who have previously offered them treats, I want to clarify that I do not support this behaviour. I sincerely apologize for any upset this situation has caused you.

Verified reviewI have stayed at 58 on Hume a number of times. It is an island of serenity close to the busy commercial hubs of Rosebank and Sandton, with many fine restaurants nearby. Michelle and her well-trained staff are always friendly, helpful and efficient. The rooms are spacious, well-appointed and quiet, and the breakfast is excellent. Importantly, the owners have taken all the steps necessary to counter the twin scourges of periodic power and water shortages that the city administrators have inflicted upon the inhabitants of Johannesburg, which makes for a very comfortable stay.
Thank you, Mike, so much for taking the time to share your wonderful feedback. We appreciate your acknowledgment of the measures we have implemented in response to the challenges posed by power and water shortages in Johannesburg. Ensuring a comfortable stay for our guests is a top priority, and we continuously work on solutions that enhance their experience. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another relaxing stay at 58 on Hume!

Verified reviewThis has been my fifth or sixth stay at this establishment and I cannot recommend it highly enough. It is set in a quiet leafy suburb yet very close to the bustling shopping and dining precinct of Rosebank. The rooms are large and beautifully furnished and the breakfast is excellent. Michelle and her team deserve the compliments they get. Importantly, the management has installed solar power and a generator to overcome the problem of loadshedding that besets the city.
Thank you, Mike, it is always lovely to see you and thank you for taking the time to give us this wonderful review. Your kind words about the team will certainly be shared with them. They take great pride in providing excellent service, and it is rewarding for them to receive such positive feedback from valued guests like yourself. We appreciate your recognition of our efforts in sustainability by installing solar power and a generator. We also have back up water. Addressing the challenges posed by loadshedding is important to us, and we are committed to ensuring our guests have a comfortable stay regardless of external circumstances. Thank you once again for your glowing recommendation! We look forward to welcoming you back soon. If there is anything specific you would like during your next visit, please do not hesitate to let us know.
