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.).

SwitzerlandNothing really, just a small note to the next traveller: and don't get me wrong, I love being close to nature. But I was so happy we had earplugs on us, as the chickens at the neighbors start clucking loud very early 😀
Sonia is a super nice welcoming host, full of energy. She shared great recommendations with us. Her place is cosy, would totally come back! Also, great value for the price. 🙏👌⛱️

Germany- nothing to mention -
I had a spacious, well-equipped and nicely decorated room with a comfortable bed. Everything was super clean, because my bedroom and the bathroom were fully cleaned everyday. The breakfast was simple but tasty. Both the owner and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I had a very good time there.

SwitzerlandWe didn't like the (lure) offer from booking.com shortly after booking, to upgrade our booking to get a better room with an additional payment to booking com. During our stay it was clear, that It would not have been possible to get a more expensive room that the one we booked with Sonia!
Sonia's MI MA BO Is centrally located, really ideal. She is a very good host and also helps to organize excursions. We also enjoyed the varied, balanced breakfast. Resilene, her also very friendly employee, makes the super-fine jam herself from various local fruits. Coming another time, we choose the MI MA BO again.

United KingdomYes, the streets do get noisy at night (coq, donkeys, dogs, music) - but that is normal, you will get this everywhere (and probably more in a resort with the night entertainment!). Think about where you are going! Just pack up ear plugs and eyemask and don't let this stop you from enjoying a wonderful stay
I spent the last 2 weeks in Mi Ma Bo, travelling as a solo woman and this is the PERFECT place to stay and make the most of the island, I just cannot recommend it enough. For a start, Mi Ma Bo is just so charming, look at the photos! Well decorated throughout, loved all the details. The location is extremely convenient in a quiet and charming street just a few minutes walk from the beach and shops/restaurants/bars, I felt SAFE all along. The rooms are big with private bathroom, good amenities. I enjoyed spending time on the balcony. Hot shower and good water pressure (which isn't always a given right!). Breakfast is good too, with homemade jam, fresh fruits and a small selection of sweet and savory - you don't need more. SONIA is the most wonderful host and will go up and arms to ensure you have the best stay, whether it is arranging excursions, fixing any issue or giving any recommendations, she really is a true STAR and so lovely. I did a few excursions that she recommended and all of them were great. Her staff Risilene and Rachido are both the kindest and trustworthy people who will take care of your room and breakfast. All in all a really great stay and I cannot wait to come back. GRAZIE SONIA SEI UN TRESORO
