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...).

PolandFirst of all there were ants running across all of the walls, floor and even going to our suitcases, clothes, toiletries, personal things. Second thing is the water which was dropping from the ceiling in the time of rain (also there was water dropping from a lamp, which I believe electric and water isn’t the best and most safe combo!) - the owner told us that it’s normal, but I don’t think so :(

United KingdomGreat place, right on the waterfront, fabulous view over the sea from the balcony. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple but clean and very comfortable, town is just a short walk away. Would have no hesitation in recommending and we would happily stay again.

This hotel is a 10 in my book.I think it is a family run business and very home like.. Everything is efficient and friendly. They went over and beyond the ‘call of duty’ I would stay here over a big fancy expensive hotel .Will be back and stay longer.

South AfricaBed and sofas were uncomfortable. Better bedding would have been nice. The shower facility was poor. Hot water cuts off mid shower. Furniture was ancient. Not enough hangers for clothes. Instead of shower curtain, there could have been a glass shower cubicle. Guests ought not to be wiping water off the floors. 🙄
Unsatisfactory breakfast. Location to the bay was good, considering the proximity to the water.

New ZealandHad to climb two flights of stairs with 20kg of baggages. The WiFi couldn’t extend to the room - so in order to use, you needed to be in certain locations outside.
Breakfast on offer had no choice or option - but it was basic and okay.

United KingdomThere were cockroaches and ants found in the room. The TV is very outdated, cannot watch anything, property advertised flat screen TV but it was a very old box TV in room. The bed was very small for two people, not comfortable at all. The property advertised AC and electric kettle in the room but these were not available. Only a fan is available on the ceiling, which on the higher settings had such a loud sound, which was not bearable. The room was dusty with old furniture also. The bathroom was dark and not clean. Breakfast was included in our stay but the breakfast was poor, with just a piece of bread and coffee. Overall, the whole site was dark, cramped, not like how the pictures had been used to advertise. You can hardly find any staff for assistance. Check in and check out process was very slow as well.

EstoniaI would recommend looking for alternative accommodations. The property, though seemingly appealing in photos, especially the garden view, falls short in reality. The swimming options are limited to a small pool. The entire establishment carries a Hindu-style aesthetic, which may feel cluttered and chaotic to some. The breakfast area, resembling what one might find in a slum, does not inspire confidence in dining there. Additionally, the cleanliness of the rooms is questionable, with unclean walls being a notable concern. Coupled with outdated amenities, slow Wi-Fi, inefficient air conditioning, and a lack of elevator for upper floors, the overall experience is significantly diminished. The ill-fitting bedding, loud toilet, and the need for an urgent renovation further contribute to a less-than-ideal stay. I definitely would not choose to stay here again.
Nothing i wish i did not book it.

In reality it looks poorly maintained, water marks on the ceiling and peeling off paint, no AC, only one electricity port in the room, ventilator not fixed well to the ceiling so it looked like it might drop off as it was moving too much to the sides
