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 KingdomUnfortunately I got pelted with flies while trying to enjoy my dinner on their terrace. Bikes are in terrible condition, very squeaky, saddles are uncomfortable and brakes aren't reliable. The location of the property makes it essential to use a bike as it's quite far from any sites or restaurants or other islands. Hugely overpriced on booking.com. Holes in mosquito net so bugs got through
Friendly woman who does the cooking and I presume house keeping

United KingdomA nice quiet location away from the main tourist areas, but still handy for the main drag on Don Khon. Restaurant at the guesthouse also has a good range of meals. Useful having bike hire available too.

SpainMe and my friend ate there and got food poison,knocked out for several days, the owner he said we ate too much, and just kept asking for if we wanted to rent things not caring that much, then he corrected that, but the first day was not nice with it.
Overall it was good, location-wise and the rooms are good enough

GermanyOnly the air condition has to be paid extra.
We stayed here for almost one week and really enjoyed this quite and green place next to the river. The guesthouse offers all basic facilities, the room was clean and you will have your one terrace. The owner was always smiling, helped us with bookings and even drove us to our next stay for free. We especially liked that the area around the bungalows is green and with many plants. Only noted that this guesthouse is located at Don Khone (the smaller of the two islands) so the next Atm is a bit far, but you can rent bikes at the guesthouse. Restaurants and small shops are within walking distance.

United KingdomThe accommodation faced the road and fields and not the beautiful river. The description needs to include this. All rooms face away from the river.

At the end of the road where the accommodations are, so very few people around. Strangely, the cabins face inland rather than towards the river but the outlook from the restaurant was pleasant

United StatesWay overpriced. It’s far from any amenities yet not quiet at all — the rooms are VERY small and closely packed together so you will hear everything your neighbors do. Staff not helpful either. Most speak no English and even using a translator they will still ignore what you tell them.

United KingdomI booked as it said riverside guesthouse. But the hammock and veranda was facing the road! The river was behind the building. Why would you build like that? Anyway it completely spoilt my stay.

FranceSome comments say that Thone, the manager, is not friendly. You can have this feeling at first but feel free to talk with him and you will see he is very helpful and trustworthy. It is mainly language barrier.
We spent the best time in Asia so far thanks to Thone and his family. It was his brother's birthday and they invited us and treated us like we were family. The place is quiet and you can rent bicycles. And the food is really good and cheap. Thone, my friend, if you read this, thank you again for everything ! To you and your family. I hope we will meet again and sing together one more time ! :)

SpainThe guesthouse has everything we were looking for to relax a couple of days after few weeks of treks. Comfy bed, clean room and bathroom, hot water (not really needed cos it was very hot weather). The food is also very tasty with fair prices. Maybe the views are not the most impressive but still sunrise is very nice and you also have a nice view from the restaurant where you can chill. Also in a more wet season views of the rice fields can be wonderful. It is about 15/20 mins nice walk from the don det bridge but it was not a problem for us. Also good price for transportation tickets to continue your trip.

The rooms are basic but have everything you need, with a terrace and hammock, the location is fantastic, the food is great, and the family that runs the place was lovely, they arranged everything for us and were very very friendly!
