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.).

United StatesThe environment was peaceful and relaxing. Very clean home and staff were attentive and caring and always happy to help. My husband and I loved the room and the food. There was no water at some point but that’s out of the hosts control and National water fixed the problem ASAP

United StatesIt was not clear that it is a room in a home or that they don’t take credit cards. There is no sign out front that tells you that you have the right place.
The staff and food are excellent. Host was very nice. Transportation to the airport was quick and efficient. Everything was good after I settled into the fact that I was staying at a home and not a hotel. I did not expect to see a private home on Booking . Com. It does say it is a B&B but it is deep in the description.

AustriaWe really enjoyed our stay. Aivilo Home is like an oasis of relaxation and hospitality close to the center of Entebbe and Victoria lake. The room was spacious and comfortable. The beautifully designed veranda and the large garden invites you to linger. The breakfast und the dinner was very delicious. Olivia is an exceptionally friendly and caring host. She running Aivilo Home with great passion. We highly recommend Aivilo Home.

NorwayWe asked for the price for the cheapest room directly with the owner, and she gave us a higher price for the room then what was online, which we thought was a bit strange. Also a bit hard to communicate with the owner about the food they offer, and she didn’t answer at sometimes, and left us hanging.
Nice for one night, close to the AirPort. The staff was very friendly and the room was nice.

A beautiful oasis that is quiet and peaceful, yet a nice walk to shops and restaurants. 15 minutes from the airport. Beautiful, spacious room with comfortable king bed and ensuite bath. Excellent meals provided at reasonable cost and served on a lovely outdoor patio. Olivia and her team will surely take care of all your needs.!!!

Olivia and her staff are amazing! From the easy airport pick up to the delicious dinner at the house, we had a perfect stay in Entebbe ahead of our safari adventure. We were even accommodated for an early breakfast ahead of our departure. 100% recommended! Definitely worth staying at this all women run property.

I didnt stay at Aivilo myself but my family did. They were extremely happy with their experience there. They were warmly welcomed and taken great care of. The place was clean, spacious and stylish in every detail. It looks like we have got our go-to place whenever we need accommodation around Entebbe.

United StatesThe only thing I didn’t like was that we couldn’t stay longer. Wish we had more time to explore the city.
I loved everything! Nice clean house, beautiful relaxing garden, friendly dogs but most importantly, the nicest and most welcoming people you will meet! I have traveled all over the world and I can’t say I have met a more welcoming, friendly and attentive host than Olivia and her staff. Our time here was way too short but I have never felt such love from a host and staff. I traveled with family for this trip. But I am a frequent solo female traveler. This is the place if you are a solo female traveler! So much female empowerment and the feeling of safeness at this home!

United StatesOur room had 2 beds and only 1 mosquito net!!! I got bitten up all night even with bug spray. Also so inconvenient that they only accept cash payment. The room was also quite hot with only 1 weak fan.
The garden is very pretty, it's pretty close to the beach (30 mins walking) and very close to the airport (10 mins driving). They arranged an airport transfer that came on time and there is a WONDERFUL restaurant around the corner called Muti.
