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 KingdomStaff in the cafe below weren't very warm but we only dealt with them upon entry and exit every day to say hi so not an issue.
Lovely cute clean room, spacious bathroom. Bed was comfy but is futon style so close to the ground - not an issue for us. Location was good, right onto the market, we had a room back off the street so can't comment on how noisy it could be closer to the street.

BelgiumEverything was really great. Just felt that it was a tad on the expensive side for a room that size.
It was very special to be able to stay up from a restaurant (takes me back to the old days). Despite being in the heart of a bustling night market, I didn’t hear any noise! The shower was great, the bed was comfy, the room temperature quick to my liking. Very quiet and peaceful. Very near the purple cane for quality Chinese tea and exciting tea infused food.

AustraliaThe location was a bit of a double-edged sword as there is a night-club that plays until ~2am. The staff have taken notice of this and kindly provide earplugs for every room. Note that there appears to be no handsoap provided (unsure if the shower lotion dispenser is meant to be used as handsoap) Doors in the guest floor were all a bit creaky, they're in need of some WD-40 :P
Great value for money and location was mostly positive! Conveniently located in a busy district of Ipoh's new city and was only a short ~10 minute walk across the river to the old city for sightseeing. Plenty of great, well-known food locations right outside and there's a daily night market that pops up underneath the building. Room was clean and tidy! Compact but met our expectations for the budget. Staff are friendly and we were able to leave our luggage with them after check-out to continue exploring Ipoh! We didn't try the cafe downstairs but its nice that guests have a convenient food option throughout the day right underneath.

ItalyNothing, all was perfect!
Big, nice room with bathroom, very clean, in a central position. There's a night market right on the guest house street, but the room is on the other side of the building and therefore quiet at night. Important note, you cannot park the car on that street at night, but we easily found parking in the streets nearby. The host was very responsive, communication with him and the staff was great, they stored our luggages until check-in time and gave us useful information about parking and shops nearby.

United KingdomEverything was very nice and we had no major issues.
Really enjoyed our stay in the room, it exceeded our expectations in many ways. The noise is understandably unavoidable as it is on a busy night market street however it was not an issue beyond 12am and it was generally quiet up to 8am. We really liked how comfortable the bed was and really like the aesthetics of the room. Check in was also really smooth and the host was always very friendly and approachable.

Netherlands- Not their fault, but unfortunately the downstairs cafe was closed during my stay. - The building is one block away from a nightclub, which was clearly audible until 2AM during both nights.
- Friendly, helpful staff. - Spacious, clean and modern room. - Good Wi-Fi coverage. - Central location close to a lot of shops and eateries, the old town is just a 15-minute walk away.

SingaporeWas surprised that WiFi was not provided in this day and age at the guesthouse, but not a biggie since we were on a holiday so it was nice to get off our phones.
It was very easy to communicate with the owners, and they kindly allowed us to check in early as we took a night bus over to Ipoh. The location was convenient enough too (short walk to the old town and all the good food around!). The place itself was really cute and clean. We had a comfortable stay and would be back again if we're in Ipoh!

MalaysiaThe only thing that I think can be improved and to make the money I spent here much worthy, is to add another mirror in the room and not only for the bathroom. Well, I ada rabun jauh, so it is a bit hassle to wear contact lens + make up with sink in between. I appreciate it if there's any mirror lah near the window to get the natural lighting too.
- Smooth check-in. We took the key from the owner at the cafe and the stairs to the guest house is inside the cafe. - The room itself looks good, very clean and the bathroom is nice as well. - We were provided with ear buds, so we kind of expecting for it to be quite noisy at night since there's a market there. Turns out it's not noisy at all. - Location is strategic. You can walk too if you want to go to the famous Concubine Lane etc, but with Msia's weather, we decided to go by car. - Overall, I am satisfied with it.

MalaysiaWe were warned at check-in about the possibility of hearing noise during the night, and earplugs were provided, but it was unfortunately too much noise to sleep comfortably. Not an hotel's problem, anyway, since noise came from a nearby club that unnecessarily played music until 4pm, and there was a stray dog barking for quite a while. What hotel could do is maybe, in the future, improve soundproofing of the rooms. Finally, bathroom could be slightly improved (e.g., by adding a shower curtain).
Centrally located, staff is very kind and check-in was very smooth (if you drive, make sure to reach the hotel before 5pm since on the same road there is a street market everyday from 5.30 onwards and you won't be able to reach the hotel by car after that). Bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Check-in and checkout time are good. There is a cafe on ground floor, where you can have good breakfast.
