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.).

South AfricaGlass slidding door could be tinted to ensure privacy, especially since it is facing the gate. Windows can either be tinted or put lace curtains. If you are relaxing, you want to be nude without offending others. Also, some rails for drying bath towels and underwears would help.
The area is peaceful and feels safe. The property yard is well maintained with excellent garden. Rooms are spacious. Staff is amazing.

Breakfast was exceptional, especially dining at the pool area. You can also eat at or in your room. Even if you book the self-catering apt - breakfast is stil included. Pool was perfect with deck chairs and gardens. Gloria is a great owner host with a wonderful team that makes you feel at home. Ask Gloria about the 1-3 day tour package that you can book before you check in. That tour recommendation of a local tour outfit (ask for Martin) made sure we had the best of Zambia - which included airport pick up and drop off even into Zimbabwe.

United StatesThe only thing that could make the stay better is making sure there is Nescafe (not the decaf kind) in the rooms every day. But this is a very small thing that I could have easily asked for, so that's also on me!
My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at Gloria's! The only problem was related to Zesco and power, which of course they can't control. I would definitely recommend staying here. Ask the staff (I don't want to share her name for privacy reasons) for a fairly priced ride to Vic Falls! Town is within walking distance. There was consistently hot water and the beds were comfy. Clean, too!

Very attentive and friendly staff, Gloria can even help with organizing tours as she has a long-grown network. We had help for a few activities, where she made calls for us and helped us with the price as well. The pool is nice, breakfast good, rooms with AC really nice. Location quiet and good with about 15 walking minutes from shops and main bus station, no taxi needed.

New ZealandIt said dinner ( evening meal) could be arranged but this was not the case. Meal deliveries were an option from town. There are great restaurants in town which they told us about & we checked out 🤩 Walking in and out is a possibility … but not for us in the heat. Taxis are everywhere and very cheap to take you in and bring you home …. so this is a GREAT option which we recommend.
The quick response to my communication. Very very lovely owner and daughter who were very helpful and had great suggestions. We were leaving before the allocated start of breakfast (included) so they made us sandwiches the night before ….. they were amazingly delicious 🤩 Good security with a nightwatchman. Quiet - so a good nights sleep. They are plagued with national power outages but had overcome this obstacle by providing fans and lighting for when this occurred. Excellent value for money
