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.).

MalaysiaHost called to inform that he would be available until 5pm for check-in. After which, we could only check in after 8pm. However, host was not in the office when we arrived around 4.45pm. Luckily, the weather was good. We had to wait for about 10 mins for him to turn up.
The location was fantastic. Food & night life was just a short walk away. The place was clean.

United KingdomLocated right in the heart of Malacca, this is a huge shophouse perfect for big groups and families. Then property is very private and gated, is quiet even though it's very central and is also within walking distance from so many amazing businesses. Would book it again if I return to Malacca!

AustraliaThe location of the property is close to the town centre, only few mins walking distance. The property also has very big car parking space. If you drive car to Melaka you don’t need to worry about finding car spot in the city centre. I just park the car there, and then walk to the centre . The property is very spacious and could be great if you have a big family .The staff is very friendly and approachable. I have troubles to call the car rental company. The staff helped me to call the rental company and explain to me how to find the car return location in the airport. He can also speak English and Chinese ( including multiple different dialects)which is easy to communicate if you need any help.

SingaporeThe traffic around the area can be quite congested so it is good to walk around. Don't drive around the area if possible.
The location is very near to Jonker Street. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Also very responsive. As the houses were next to one another, we have to be a little more mindful about the noise level. It was thoughtful of the staff to provide us the mosquito repellent incense and that really helped a lot especially when we were on the ground floor. We loved the shophouse concept and will consider coming back here again in the future. There are many good food nearby and we had no worries about the lack of food.

SingaporeIt looks far on the MAP but in less than 10 min - there I was - JONKER WALK. Ample Parking SPACES. Lovely big houses - the 5-BED was FANTASTIC, loads of private spaces with comfortable sofas, even for a group of 10. With 4 BATHROOMs and TOILETs - take your time - no one's knocking ! & you know you'll regret, if you don't stick with 1 of those must-eat highly_recommended list(s); ample toilets are ... quiet ... good beds, with fresh clean linens, sheets, ... You'll get a good night's rest ... Great HOSTs/Staff, the neighbours are warm & friendly, even better !!

MalaysiaThe place had multiple living areas which were great places to sit in a group, but as they weren't air conditioned, they were too hot to use. There is a 2 burner gas stove in the kitchen, but no pots, pans or cooking utensils. There are doors which join to neighbouring units which have large gaps under the doors, so noise from other units can come in. Having said all this, it was still a great place to stay.
The location is fantastic. It's very close to the river, but not so close that you get the noise. It was very quiet, well furnished, well set out and decorated. Beds are comfy and there are air cons in each bedroom. Staff were friendly and accommodating. On site parking was a real benefit.

MalaysiaThe people who booked the unit next to ours was very noisy. The sound proofing in the place is not good. They should have a cut off time for noise. They brought their own karaoke set and so the noise was horrible.
The place was clean and basic but the location was very good. Walking distance to Jonker street and most places that we wanted to go to. The owner was very friendly. Plenty of parking spaces too which was good.

SingaporeWalls are not soundproof but thats expected of a shophouse kind of housing. The hall, toilets and dining area were not fully enclosed, probably for ventilation as no aircons there, so mosquitoes could come in.
Spacious, clean, decent price and good location. Free parking as well. Road in is a bit narrow but we had no issues driving an Alza in. The donut shop near the vehicle entrance was pretty nice.
