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.).

ChinaThere are some.
The guesthouse is close to the river and bridge, and a couple of night pubs. It's interesting that at the entrance of the lane, there is a diner which provides breakfast in the morning and turns to be a pub in the evening. The staff is helpful. However, they might not be in the guesthouse for the whole day in the low season, so you might need to wait for them to show up to help you check in. The furnishings are nice with many mirrors which girls may like. The living room on the second floor is good to have a rest if it's not too hot. Ahhh, you have to take off your shoes when you enter the house, which might be a custom in Southeast Asia, but not enjoyable for me. Malacca is good to let yourself escape from those annoying things in life. However, when it rains heavily, you'll be bothered from sleep.

MexicoGenerally not clean, even if shoes are not allowed inside, the floor is dusty everywhere. The place need maintenance, there are little things here and there that need to get fix and clean profoundly. Showers without curtains, water everywhere in the bathroom. Common bathroom in the second floor is very dirty!! In the room I stayed there is a big problem with humidity in the wall and two beds are right there, it is not good for health to breath that humidity.
Location is excellent! Common areas are nice to hang around. Beds are decent and clean. I like the carpets in the floor, it makes it cosy.

ColombiaNo toilet paper was provided. I believe they expect everyone to just use water to clean. I suggest to the guesthouse to provide toulet paper. Everything else was perfect.
The place is very nice and quiet. Very well located in a calm street that at night has a lovely vibe. There are many places where to eat, have coffee or drink. The bed was comfortable.

United KingdomThe location was good, we liked it was a little out of the way in the hope it would be quiet. We were in an 8 bed dorm and had the entire room to ourselves. The room was clean and they supplied towels and bedding. The air con was good and the WiFi worked. There is a lovely communal area upstairs.

MalaysiaThe room has no windows, there are watermarks on the walls, no pillowcases, the air conditioner is not cold and there is no remote control. It feels hot until midnight when sleeping, and the sound insulation is not good. There are people chatting loudly in the next room around 2am, which makes it impossible to fall asleep. You can tell the tenant to be quiet after midnight.
The location is super convenient, close to nearby attractions and cheap. Providing shared space is also comfortable.

AustraliaThey charged us 15 RM to check in an hour early when we arrived. The room was ready and empty so didn’t feel this was justified. The outside patio often had a full ashtray that could have been emptied as there was nobody using it when we were there. These at very small things that shouldn’t deter anyone from staying here, just niggles.
We loved the location on the river and near lots of eateries. The staff were friendly and responded when asked. We had the en suite queen room which suited our needs perfectly. The kitchen and communal areas we of good size and well decorated.

The place is good located near to the main attractions (red Square, Jonker). It's located next to the river and although it's near the center its quiet and calm.

GermanyReceptionist was most of the time not there; had to ask for basic amenities such as toilet paper and waited roughly 20 mins for check-in because he was not there. Doors to the house are never closed, so anyone can enter. Bunk beds looked like they could need some love (new curtains for example). Never saw anyone cleaning. Also, prepare for noise and rough sleep: it's very noisy at night (don't go on a weekend)
The common areas are super beautiful and the view on the river magic. There are games available to play, the location is fantastic and all in all the style very nice. For the price definitely a good option.

MalaysiaIt could have been better if they have a water dispenser. However, all is well.
The location was strategic as it's close to so many places such as the famous Cendol Kampung Hulu. Kampung Morten is about 10 minutes walk and Jonker Street is about 5-7 minutes walk alongside the Malacca river. It's walkable to the tourist attractions in the area. It also has a great view at night with all the lights along the river and on the bridge. We had a great stay.
