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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesDefinitely nitpicking because this was a great stay. The bed was a little bit hard for me (but if you prefer a firm mattress you’ll be fine) and sometimes you went to the front desk to find the owner’s son playing computer games.
I had a great stay here! The location was perfect, walking distance from everything in the Old Quarter and right between the river and the main street. My room was quite large especially for a solo traveller and very good value. The family that runs the guesthouse is very sweet and helpful. The laundry service was the quickest I’ve experienced so far. definitely recommend this guesthouse if you’re planning a trip to Luang Prabang!

New ZealandA litte fridge in the tea coffee station on the deck would be super helpful or a board and a knife to cut up fruit!
We loved Apple guest house, it's located right near all the action in Luang Prabang and so you can walk everywhere! The room was tidy clean and tastefully decorated. We loved that there was a shared deck/lounging area with tables and chairs and tea and coffee. Good for sitting up doing late night bookings and blogging while the kids slept. The cute family who owns it was super helpful and obliging. Sometimes you'd pop down and the young son was manning the desk playing computer games, but it didn't mattter as someone who could help you was not far away!

Such a cute guesthouse with really kind staff and a great location. We got the bigger room and it had a balcony and nice bathroom and large bed, well worth the upgrade. Also included free water (hot or cold) from dispensers

United KingdomWifi was a bit temperamental, but might be due to usage from other rooms
We had a relaxing & restful stay run by a wonderful friendly family who speak excellent English - we arrived late but the owner helped us settle in and kindly let us sort payment & paperwork once we had showered after our long journey from Phonsavan (9hrs not 6....and very dusty!) The lovely couple were always ready to help with questions & advice, they booked our minivan to Nong Khiaw including tuktuk pick up (3hr journey) and generally a pleasure to chat too An extensive folder is provided in the room with trips & transport options (Slow Boat advice - allow 30 mins in tuktuk to get to the pier, in addition to arriving 1hr before departure time) Nice bathroom, very quiet area and comfortable room, large bed, efficient AC, free water refill and tea & coffee available Saffron Coffee & The Chess have really nice Western breakfasts (Smoothie & Yoghurt bowls were huge!) and great coffee to start the day Short walk to Night Market, can close around 9pm so go early We hired a scooter through them to visit the Kuang Si waterfalls and Buffalo Dairy (whatsapp in advance so they can manage group size - it's fab brushing a friendly Buffalo & ice cream is delicious!) Very quick laundry turnaround in less than a day and the freshest smelling in our SEA trip yet ~ thank you

United KingdomDo not stay in room number 9. Unfortunately, our room was placed right above a restaurant which would be cooking food from 8am in the morning until 9pm at night. Smoke and cooked food smells would travel into our room and the only way we could get rid of the smell was to tape cling film over the windows and blast the air conditioning to push the smell out. I wasn’t able to dry my hair in the room as the smell was so intense and had to inconveniently do this on the communal balcony. We did ask to move rooms but the guesthouse was fully booked so had to improvise with the cling film. Other than this issue, it would have been a perfect stay!
Jimmy and Nou are the loveliest hosts ever and the rest of the housekeeping staff at Apple guesthouse were amazing. Someone was always available at reception helping the guests and they even helped us book our transfer to the train station. The location is absolutely perfect, nestled away from busier roads and very quiet. We loved the character of the guesthouse and our room and enjoyed the free tea and coffee on the communal balcony.
