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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

South AfricaNothing really. Maybe the road to the guest house is a bit rough for a low suspension car. If the humps can just be lowered especially inside the gate if they have no control over the outside.
The place is clean and a home away from home. They have everything you need. Calm and peaceful environment. I'm lost of words to describe Lettie (kind, thoughtful etc). Wow 👌 👏. Self catering but she still bakes, provides goodies for you. We booked room 1 and 3 because room 2 was already taken when we booked. She accommodated us at room 1 and 2 which were in the same house. That's was thoughtful and accommodative. We appreciate that. May God bless you 🙏 ❤️

Beautiful property situated on the banks of a river. The two bedroom house with two bathrooms is an absolute gem. The fully equipped kitchen has all the amenities you need & there is an outside barbecue as well. The DSTV has a full bouquet. There is a lovely free standing bath in the one bathroom as well as a fitted bath & shower in the second bathroom. Lettie is a wonderful host & we had freshly baked rusks as well as scones, cheese & jam, upon arrival, as well as bunches of lovely flowers in the rooms. The beds are comfortable & we had electric blankets as well as heaters & some chocolates on our pillows. There is lovely walking trails on the farm. We cannot wait to visit again.

NamibiaNothing! everything was just perfect.
This property was absolute WOW. Out in the nature, spacious and very well equiped. Enjoying a cup a coffee early morning or a glass of wine / Amarula late afternoon next to the waters was the best medicine for an extremely tired soul. The homemade rusks were delicious 😍

South AfricaNot the hosts' fault but beware using the GPS location provided by booking.com - Google maps took us down the wrong dirt road (seems to think there is a connecting access road but there isn't). Rather get directions from the host upfront.
Beautiful location with great view of the water and grassy lawn. So peaceful at night with barely any noise despite the campsite across the dam. Kitchenette has all the equipment you need and enjoyed the complimentary muffins. Feels like you are in a rural farm location but felt secure and is not far from Heidelberg town. Host was extremely helpful and accommodating.

United StatesThere were two space heaters (much appreciated) but a third one for the shared area would have been nice - it was quite cold. The local Hadeda Ibises, which are very loud, woke my sister up at dawn.
The location was beautiful, next to a camping area. The rooms were comfortable, including a nice living room with comfy chairs and couches, dining area, and full kitchen. The owner provided muffins as well as rusks for breakfast.

South AfricaWe liked everything about the place and can definitely recommend it.
Ibis Nest is a very peaceful and tranquil place. We stayed in the standard twin room and it's very quiet and private if no one else is booked in the double room which shares the kitchen and the living room. Lettie is one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet. She made our stay as pleasant as possible and offered more than most guest houses in regard to food (muffins, rusks) and coffee etc. (although it is self-catering).
