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.).

SingaporeCarol and Johnson went above and beyond to make our trip comfortable. They linked us up with private hire drivers who drove us from Tiger Leaping Gorge to Lijiang, as well as from Lijiang to Dali. Johnson also helped us book tickets for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (can only be purchased the night before through local WeChat accounts), and even went with us to the ticket counter at Lijiang Romance Park as Chinese ID was required to collect tickets. The breakfasts they prepared were warm, nourishing Yunnan specialities. They had splendid recommendations for local restaurants and gifts to buy for the folks back home. They are generous, open-hearted people who love company and good conversations.

The nicest place I have been in China. The family is just adorable. You will feel like home. If you want to meet Chinese locals that is THE place to go. They will be happy to help, answer your questions and do their best to provide you with your needs. They speak perfect English. The room is huge and comfortable. The bed is very comfortable, shower hot, and the location can't be better. Downtown, no cars around, but shops/ cafe/food at a walking distance. Don't miss it!

Vietnam- Located center of Shuhe ancient town, 1 of the best ancient towns in Lijiang. If you wanna feel quiet and peaceful ancient in Lijiang, Johnson's home is a good choice. - Kind and supportive owner, Johnson helped us to carry our luggage way in and out to the road. Showed us some attractive places to visit, and support in reserving a ticket for the Legend of Romance show - Experienced in Naxi house, unique and style architecture design.

Johnson was a very considerate host and made us all feel very comfortable during our stay. Our children loved being with his pet dog and we all enjoyed walking and hiking together (including the dog who came along too). The old town was very close by and had some very comfortable coffee shops and local foods. The attractions in the main city were very enjoyable and our host Johnson offered to take us there in his car at no cost :) We enjoyed a few days hike in the mountains and were guided to the less crowded areas that suited our stay. Thank you Johnson, we really enjoyed our time with you.

We have been cared very well during our stay and it was a great bonus that they could speak both English and Chinese fluently. The breakfast was delicious, the tea was fantastic, hiking was AMAZING(the boys loved it!), even the yoga experience was memorable. The over 100 years old lodge, fit in well in the old town. Everything was so perfect that we don't want to travel any more. We have discussed a return trip to the hotel before we left. Thanks again Johnson and Carol for your hospitality and we had great time there. Xx

Hong KongWe really enjoyed our stay at Jayden Lodge Homestay. Johnson and Carole were so welcoming and friendly, we felt like home at their place. It was really appreciable to speak English with them, they are also really happy to share and to help. The bedroom was really big and bright, and it was greatly atypical to stay in an old naxi house. Everything was perfect, we highly recommend!

UkraineThe hosts, Carol and Johnson are amazing, they made us feel like home and took care of us as if we were their old friends. Johnson took us for a hike to the nearest mountain, they explained us all about the area, coocked us tasty breakfast. We also enjoyed the opportunity to share dinner with them and try the food they usually have. They have a very pretty terrace with the view of the Shuhe town, a young very active dog, which has become friends with my kids. We got presents when we left, we will always have a pleasant memory of our stay here!

Sri LankaI stayed here for 4 nights. The owners were very hospitable and welcoming. They offered free breakfast and dinner everyday of my stay. In the morning I was able to eat breakfast on the roof and enjoy the beautiful views over ShuHe. They were very helpful in giving me information about the local areas so I could plan some hikes and activities. I was taken on a hike close to the homestay by Johnson and Carol. Johnson taught me more about the history of ShuHe and Carol did some guided meditation with me during the hike. I chose to stay an additional night and was given a discount for what was already a generously priced stay. I'm grateful for my stay here and would recommend it to others wanting to enjoy some beautiful views and hospitality from kind owners.

United KingdomDepends on your perspective, but I hope you are comfortable with your partner- there is no bathroom door, only a screen.
The best thing is the hosts- Johnson took us to places and gave us advice to see small places we would never have seen. Carol offers yoga and meditation. Ayi cooked very good food and we ate with the family often, including trying local teas, alcohol, vegetables and mushroom. Room was very nice- similar to the pictures, in a unique, local sytle. Value for money was top notch.

Free yoga class was generously extended from 30 to 90 minutes and followed by a delicious simple breakfast. He even took us up into the hills for a short hike and view of the city. Great value here as a jumping off point for the region!
