How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewClean fresh & lovely staff (Lamin & Binta) This is a place away from the hustle and bustle of Senegambia. I’ve eaten fresh fish daily, purchased freshly from the fishermen on the Tanji beach., If you want a relaxing holiday without the hype in a friendly area clean fresh modern accommodation this is the place for you.
No hot water apart from that I have fully enjoyed my stay
Thank you Pierre for your comments and the time you took looking after Lamin. I understand that your stay was during a cloudy time so the solar hot water might not have been as good as normal. We shall look into this. You will be welcome to return any time you wish. James & Ramu

Verified reviewThe location was good with easy access to the main highway with Tanji fish market within walking distance.
The road taken to walk to the main highway is very sandy and uneven. If you have good walking shoes be prepared for them to get very dusty. If you have somewhere nice to go in the evening and you don't want to get your shoes dirty, consider taking a short taxi ride to the main road
Thank you for the feed back. Unfortunately there is not much we can do about the road but your point is noticed and we will pass it on.

Verified reviewThe little house is perfect for staying at Tanji. It was clean and comfortable. Lamin and Alasan made us feel very welcome and took good care of us. The outside sitting-area is very nice; as well as the inside of the house. Many small shops and possibilities to grab something small to eat nearby. The walk to the fish market is not far and also the beach can be reached well on foot.
Curtains would have been nice, at times it felt like living in a goldfish bowl. But they told us that curtains will come soon. It would also be good to give guests a key to the security gate so that one can enter anytime on one's own.
Thank you for the good review. We are talking to a curtain producer so this will be fixed shortly. There should have been a key on the key ring for the gate. I will look into this and make sure the key is available. J
