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 AfricaThe location is bad, the area looks very risky and very dodgy i must say.
I did not have breakfast there; the dining area was not appealing. Too dull. The swimming pool was not functional. very disappointing. the bathroom door lock is not functional, and the main door lock is also malfunctioning. the whole place needs a good revamp.

ZambiaThe beddings seemed old. The whiteness of the sheets is lost. Water was a challenge The cistern cover in my room was broken The lock for the door need much attention The aircon was not 100%, for the cold period I stayed there it was very uncomfortable
The staff were helpful, responsive and very friendly. The ladies who processed my checking-in and the Gentleman who processed my check-out were angels. They are rare gems. The restaurant staff were equally good and helpful.

BotswanaThe facility is out dated. No plugs, we had to go ask. The interior is old and looks really bad. The pool was green on arrival *they did fix it the next day) There was a horrible smell at the restaurant, like dead animal or wrotten garbage bags. There were spider webbs behind the curtains ... floors polished with old car oil .. our feet still black. Food is way over priced. The food is ok but we could have found much better for that price. The rooms and restaurant does NOT look anything like the pictures.
The staff was trying their very best to accomodate us. They went out of their way. From all the places qe've been they where the friendliest.

South AfricaThe facility is in a poorly maintained, the rooms were dirty and water supply was intermittent and the location is in a run down part of town. The fotos do not reflect an accurate depiction of the current state of the lodge.
There is nothing that is note worthy.
