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 reviewNice staff. Helped me book several tours around Nosy Be.
Bathroom was not very clean. The toilet seat was disgusting. Some things should be replaced.
Hello! Thank you very much for your note and comment. We appreciate your opinion about our staff. About the cleaning, during the first 3 days of your stay you did not ask for the room to be cleaned, even on booking we already indicated the cleaning service is included. And although the cleaning ladies asked you for your room key to clean, you did not give it to them. So it was only on the 4th day that you asked for your room to be cleaned, so it is very normal if it was dirty, it was not cleaned for 3 days. We clean our rooms every day unless the customers do not accept it. The proof is that we are very well rated about the property ( 8.8) on the booking website and on other online booking sites. Regards The manager

Verified reviewBreakfast on the terrace
Rooms too small, shower a mere trickle. Not overlooking the beach as advertised by booking.com Too much sex tourism in the area and the hotel.
Hello Marie-Luise, Thank you for your rating and comment. At the Résidence Au Sable Blanc we have several types of accommodation: those that are cheaper (Small double room without sea view, standard studio without sea view) and those that are expensive with all the necessary comfort and sea view (Studio comfort with kitchen, Apartments, Sea view Rooms with balcony. Customers therefore have the choice between cheaper (from €39) and expensive rooms with sea view ( from 65€) but all situated in a step away from the beach, and apartments that are more expensive , very spacious , is giving direct access to the sea. Each accommodation is detailed with its facilities on the Booking website so you have to check carefully before choosing the one you prefer. Concerning sex tourism, the hotel has never tolerated this kind of act, a document stipulating this is displayed at the reception. And all people who enter to the hotel to visit someone are checked with their identity papers. On the other hand, this situation is sometimes noticeable in bars and restaurants around. We will improve the quality of the shower in some rooms. We will be delighted to welcome you next time at the hotel! The manager

Verified reviewThe view, the foot in water right on the beach the only thing i did not like was the distance from the main street.
The distancebfrom the main street.
Hey Donald, Thanks a lot for your comment. Thank you for choosing the Sable Blanc hotel. We are in about 10-15 min away from the main road, so people can get there by walking on the beach, or getting there by tuk tuk wich costs around 5000Ar / 10.000Ar per tuk tuk . Hope to welcome you next time. Best regards Sable blanc Team
