Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomBernie was absolutely amazing, very helpful and accommodating. The room was spacious and comfortable with all what could be needed for a couple days stay. I also got lucky that tenants from main property just moved out so Bernie gave me access to main living room and the lovely veranda by the water. Would totally stay there again.

AustraliaReally enjoyed my 2 night stay at Bernie’s place!! It was everything I would hope for at this price and I will definitely stay here again. I’d also like to mention that I’ve read through previous reviews and I am so impressed because Bernie has addressed them all, it’s clear she has put her heart into this place. For example: - ‘Room was hot upon arrival’ - made sure the aircon was on for my arrival - ‘No soap in shower’ - a great selection now - ‘Needs extra chair’ - 2 chairs available with full cutlery and plate setup ready to go! - ‘Hard to locate’ - has exceptional check in instructions, has really taken the time to ensure guests don’t get stuck or lost Thanks for the stay Bernie, I appreciate your hard work :) (ps. The bed is really comfy and the light switch is in the cupboard)

AustraliaLoved everything! Highly and strongly recommend these guys to everyone who's planning a trip to GC.
Bernie kindly sent clear instructions on how to get to the property and later checked if we successfully got to the place. The unit has all the privacy you may need with your individual entrance, spacious bathroom, and car park just outside the unit. I absolutely loved the availability of all kinds of little things a traveller may need including spray deodorant, cotton pads, toothpaste, liners, soaps, shampoos, teas, sugar, coffee, chocolate, milk, etc. Portable iron board and iron are also there. Very comfy mattress. Air-conditioning for warm/cold weather. We didn't use the AC as it was very comfortable inside with 10C outside at night.
