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.).

Very sweet people with a beautiful home. Room is small,but very comfortable,with a big balcony. There's a mosquito net on the door, so AC doesn't have to be used all the time. Breakfast according to your taste,and it was perfect.

Wonderful hosts. Excellent breakfast . The owner Stanley helped arrange a driver to pick me up at the airport, his wife cooked a late dinner to welcome me to India.. Stanley offered suggestions for sites to see around Kochi and recommended a massage therapist for a traditional Ayurvedic massage.

United KingdomWe had the best time staying in this beautiful home! Stanley & Jasmin are such warm and welcoming hosts, they even had dinner waiting for us when we arrived very late from the airport. The room and bathroom were spacious, clean and cool. Jasmin cooks the most delicious food (best dosa ever!) and Stanley gave us great tips off the tourist track. We ended up extending our stay here - definitely recommend if you’re visiting Fort Kochi

The room and bathroom were huge and spotless with excellent aircon and wifi all included. Jasmin is an excellent cook and as well as lovely breakfast she also cooked for us both nights and made food exactly how my partner liked ie very very mild. They looked after us so well we didn’t want to leave!

Best homestay we have ever stayed at! The whole house was super clean and very well kept. The rooms were big and very comfortable. The owners, Jasmin and Stanley, make you feel like you're at home. Both super nice and very helpful, giving us suggestions on what to do or where to eat. Jasmin's cooking is definitely top notch. The breakfast was homemade and delicious. Also, they were very kind to drive us to the doctor and make us comfort food, when we got sick from outside food, a kindness thats rare to find in the touristic sector. In general the whole experience was perfect and I can't recommend Jasmin villa enough!

An exceptional stay with a warm and lovely couple. My very early check in request (2 am) and a preferred breakfast were granted without any questions asked or unhappiness shown. Mr Stanley even offered assistance in me moving around the town with his expert advises and tips. It gave me a feeling of a stay in a relative's house with comfort, freedom and safety. A sure 10/10 rating for this stay,

IndiaThis was my very first Home stay and its was just perfect!!! Jasmine is kind and friendly person who loves to host people at her place. The adorable couple along with their cute kid have got a wonderful home who have put a lot of effort in keeping the place fabulous which one would get in their first sight. The room that I stayed in was vibrant and had a great ambience. Authentic kerala style breakfast was served which wasn't part of the itinerary which shows how good they like hosting people. I would recommend one should definitely stay at their place to experience it.

The most pleasant experience in India. 100%recomendable. The host took good care of me and my boyfriend throughout our stay that made our experience being incredible. The room and bathroom was súper súper clean and with very good facilities, including water heater, air conditioning.. Stanley (the owner) even allowed us to stay in a better room without no extra cost. (The house is just as it apears in the photos published by the owners) :) Being there, we decided to have dinner in their home. The dinner was homemade and was so so so tasty (you can see it in the photos) During the night, we had time to talk with Jasmin and Stanley (the owners) who recommend us one place to stay in Munnar and places to buy the spicies at the same prize local people do. Then, my boyfriend played chess with his lovely son Enoch. Regarding the breakfast, was awesome as well. Jasmin cooked for us coconut chutney, with some kind of creps to dip in the sauce and omelette. It was awesome. I wish we could have stayed few days more in the home. I do recommend this property to everyone.

IndiaThis beautiful homestay is run by Wilson family. We stayed there for couple of days and it was a wonderful stay. It is absolutely neat and clean with a huge modern bathroom. Stanley welcomed us and immediately, it felt like home. He has extensive knowledge about tourism and specially about Kerala. He is passionate about what he is doing and a very happy person. Jasmine is fabulous cook. She made some of the best dishes we ever had. We had requested her to make some authentic Kerala dishes and she happily prepared some of the delicious food. We would highly recommend this place and would love to come back soon.

Jasmin Villa is simply the best find on booking.com for me so far. Very clean, pleasant, value for money stay by all means! Pretty close to the city but in a very peaceful residential neighborhood! Me and my family absolutely loved the property as well as the hosts, Stanley and his wife Jasmin! These are seasoned hosts, period! They took good care of me and my family throughout our stay. Jasmin's exceptional cooking skills are unbelievable! Wish we could have stayed few days more. Certainly we would go back to Jasmin Villa for our next trip. We checked in as guests, left as family members! I would recommend this property to everyone. Keep up the good work guys, see you soon and God bless!!

I will definitely prefer who is traveling to fort kochi. Best thing the host can speak my native language tamil. Very peaceful area and highly secured.
