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.).

NetherlandsI visited during Ramadan and off season and there were no other guests. Which makes the place a bit quiet. Also its just out of the centre. If you're traveling alone I'd suggest you take something more in the centre so you can more easily go to cafes etc.
The host is very kind and made me nice pancakes. He is the only one who speaks English. The room was alright. Nothing fancy. If you have a bit more money maybe book a bamboosa shack.

KyrgyzstanArrived late but the check in was smooth. Went there on weekdays so it was not so packed with people. The room is without any fan or aircond but strangely enough it was cold, maybe because its at Bukit Tinggi. Breakfast was delicious. 😊😊

GermanyIt seems that there is only one person who speaks english. We wanted to get some information regarding the area, but we weren't really able to talk to the available staff. What may look like a pool in the pictures is really not a pool.
It is a clean and friendly place that also comes with a hot shower :)

NetherlandsThere was no sink in the room or toiletpaper. Staff is generally transactional.
The fact that we could do a really early check-in (around 06:00) without additional costs was super. The room is small but the bed was comfortable, as well as the hot shower. Also the price is very low and considering breakfast is included, this makes a stay at Bamboosa comfortable.

AustraliaThe beds were a bit hard for my taste. Its also v close to a mosque so be prepared for an early wake up call, I think you’ll probably have this anywhere in Bukittingi though, it’s all part of it. There was a large family staying while I was there, with lots of kids playing in the pool so it wasn’t really peace and quite but that’s ok :)
The staff were super friendly and helpful, breakfast was yum (a little on the small side though). My room and the common areas were clean. The location is great too, short walk to laundry, good warungs and the middle of town.
