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.).

IndonesiaThe staff was lovely and the Rooms clean. There were many options for spa Treatments. There is a big difference between standard and superior room. Even though it is a bit more expensive i would suggest the superior room.

South AfricaRoom was a bit small, and there is no basin in the bathroom.
Stayed for 2 nights with the intention of doing a silver class which was within walking distance. Breakfast was nice at the warung across the road, and it had a beautiful view of the rice fields.

IndonesiaThe absence of a sink in the bathroom was a bit impractical, but not a big issue.
Our room had a little terrace were it was nice to rest after a day of hiking through the rice terraces. The staff was friendly and we had some great Balinese massages. Sweet Homestay has a nice Warung with good food. Though it is next to the road, the beautiful view on the rice terraces makes it worthwhile. We would recommend for a short stay in Sideman!

United KingdomThe pillows weren’t comfortable - not a big deal just thought it was worth noting. There also wasn’t a sink in our room and there was no soap. But apart from that, it was great.
We loved the location! Set in gorgeous scenery and you can walk to some lovely warungs for dinner. Sweet warung was delicious and very convenient for dinner. The Nasi Campur was amazing! The owners were very friendly and helpful. Overall this was so well-priced and a lovely place to stay in Sidemen.

AustraliaVery basic facilities. Hot water didn’t always work (so think they are getting it fixed though) and the bathroom had open windows so insects (and mosquitoes) could get in so I had to keep the main door to the bedroom closed to keep mosquitoes out. No sink either but shower had a low tap
The family was soooo friendly and helpful. They would always greet me and check how I was going and ask if I needed anything

GermanyUnfortunately, as a female solo traveller I didn‘t feel comfortable. The host constantly tried to convince me to take his offers for trips or taxi services. He didn't want to accept that his taxi offer was too expensive for me and I felt like I had to justify myself for saying no. One time, he also came up to my room to ask me if I wanted to eat breakfast, I don‘t understand why he cared about that anyway. I was still asleep and I also could have just come out of the shower, for example. As a man, he shouldn't just come to my balcony where you could see into my room. I felt a little harassed by that because this is not okay in my opinion. In addition, there are two dogs that you have to pass to get to the homestay which is very scary (especially when it’s dark) because they come running out of their property since there is no gate and bark at you. So if you are scared of dogs, be aware of that.
The homestay is located very well, you can reach many restaurants or take walks in the surrounding nature which is just incredible. The restaurant of the homestay serves delicious food, has good prices and its staff is really nice and friendly as well. The massage that I got was great and inexpensive. In addition, my room was very clean and nicely decorated with a nice view on the mountains. Definitely a great value for this price.

Honestly one of the best places we've stayed. Wayun and his family are so kind and helpful. You can book anything you want in Sideman through them for a great price. The location was perfect, great views, and their warung where breakfast is served overlooks the most beautiful rice paddies. The food in the warung is spectacular and you should also try a massage at the in House spa whilst you're there as it was amazing and such a good price. 1000% would recommend.

I loved my time at Sweet Homestay and would recommend it to everyone! The family are lovely - so welcoming, polite, helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. Sideman is a quiet town and the homestay took care of everything for me! They drove me to the local ATM, my next destination, gave me a tour of the area and took me to a local waterfall. They also took care of my laundry and have spa services and their own warung - which I ate at for every meal, the food was so good! Thank you!!

IndonesiaPeaceful & homely feeling of the homestay. Clean homestay. Comfortable furnishings with lounge chairs on veranda for each room to relax on. Very friendly hosts. Breakfast included at their warung was healthy, fresh & a large portion that you can't possibly finish. Love the sideman coffee they had. Homestay warung had a lovely view of the rice fields & offered authentic Balinese non veg & vegan menu. Must try their dishes. Definitely value for money, whether you're on a budget or not.
