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.).

Malaysia1) The wall is not soundproof. 2) parking is limited 3) road 50 m to this place got holes, you must be careful.
I like the private balcone for every room. It is located in the heart of kundasang where everything is accessible.

AustriaMainly caused by the fact, that I was partly there during a main holiday in Malaysia, the rooms were fully booked (and actually in whole Kundasang) and as mentioned in other reviews, the rooms are not soundproof, so you hear every step and conversation. In the very night it was quiet enough to sleep though, depending how respectful the other guests are. That was actually much better after the holidays. Also - I believe a problem in whole Kundasang, which was probably worse due to the mass of tourists during the holidays - the sewerage smell from bathroom and from the back of the house - was sometimes really bad. This actually also got better after the holidays.
The spacious balcony with the seating area, sink and some dishes to prepare your own coffee/instant noodles or some fruit is really nice. Fantastic view to the mountains, loads of birds around. Location is quiet, although close to the town center, so nice for people who don't have an own vehicle. Large, clean, well equipped room, although not the newest furniture.

MalaysiaThe smell from the drainage/sewage system can be quite strong.
1. The room was huge. The host upgraded our room for free. 2. Spacious balcony equipped with kitchen utensils. There was also a kitchen, but we didn’t use it. 3. Functioning water heater. This is the first property that I have stayed in in Kundasang that actually has hot water. Although the water pressure was on the lower side, I can’t complain since it’s functioning well. 4. Good WiFi connection. 5. Friendly host and staff. 6. Close to restaurants and supermarkets. They are of walking distance.

MalaysiaThe sound proofing is not that good due to thin wall and floor, but as a visitor, in group or alone, please be considerate to other visitor and don't stomping or jumping or talk loudly in the room as it may disrupt others relaxing in their room.

Hong KongThe hot water was 38 degree maximum due to water pressure. The bathroom was small, once having shower, the whole bathroom was wet. But it wasn't too bad, it was valuable for staying a night before hiking.
It was close to the entry of the Mont Kinabalu Park by car. Walking distant to market and food. People there were nice and helpful, they gave us the hair dryer once asked them on the apps messager.

SingaporeThe soundproof of the room is not good, there was a group of young people in the next room making noise until 1am on the first night. Hope it doesn't happen all the time.
location is great, the room has great scenery which you could see the mountain surrounded by the pink cloud in the early morning. There is also a nice Chinese restaurant nearby. The water heater is great, which is absolutely necessary here. The host is super helpful and responds to all the requests in time.
