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 reviewThe street from the Main road to the property needs some serious rehabilitation. It's currently a hazard for non-Off road vehicles.

Verified reviewThe 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 🙏 ❤️
Nothing 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.

Verified reviewBeautiful 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.

Verified reviewThis 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 😍
Nothing! everything was just perfect.
