How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The original n spacey rooms were divided into two smaller rooms which can only fit a queen bed n that's all is there in the room.i still had to pay deposit despite paying full for two rooms n because i only took 3 instead of 4, the host rented my other portion of the room to strangers without asking
There's air-conditioning provided in each rooms, but that's it

As i was so desperate to get accomodation i had booked it even notice the red scale reviews and when spent time to read all those bad reviews after check out i can say that the management didnt do anything to improve it since the feedback was from last 2years....they just reply it without action! I will summarize it here; 1) They ask rm50 deposit and returned back thru online banking only rm40 and i called pic why? They didnt mention it here and when i called pic said they already told OYO about it but OYO doesnt want to put it means HIDDEN CHARGE as was told by other customer. He also mention they put the notice at the premise but how about for those book online. They should inform this thru this platform. 2) I have book online and when arrived nobody was there....only vending mc & the instruction how to pay and since i booked on9 i have to pay deposit thru that mc and a few mins later a guy came down and he gave me the key & ask for rm50 deposit w/o mention about the extra charges. 3) The room advertised attached with shower but actually not. 4) No soap & towel 5) Torn bedsheet My advise to the management & booking.com as well just put the real price....in my case it was advertise rm45 and then for the final it was rm54 but rm45 still there and plus with the additional rm10 the total was rm64 for the small space room with outside bathroom. It was too pricey with the facilities such it. One more thing the room door is so easy for someone to break in. I didnt expect to get much with that price but i have experience paying rm50-rm60 with i satisfied it....worth with the value and they have sturdy and security door. Hope management take note and improve it to sustain in the business.

there is no counter at the premises, if you get this discount in Booking.com, later when you check in, you need pay again via vending machine. They will refund you when you check out. For eg: You book for standard room of RM39 in Booking.com, once you check in you need to pay RM60 to get the access card and key in vending machine. the next day, they will refund you RM11 only, eventhough you book RM39 in Booking.com

I booked 1 family room, which supposed to have 2 Queen beds, private bathroom with toiletries. What I got is, 1 small room, with 1 what they claim as 'king' size bed, shared toilet & bathroom. Additional fee MYR10 (they said its their standard procedure), deposit MYR90 upon arrival. I am totally loss of word, dissatisfied and disappointed! This is more like hostel, not a guest house! If you are travelling with kids or elders, and privacy is a main concern(esp for muslimah), please consider alternatives!

I booked & payed for room with double queen bed but when reach at the property, they gave me room with single queen bed. Also, the toilet is outside the room. Its definitely different when i booked in booking.com. I already asked the property why the room is not tally with my booking.They told me the room have a problem & can't use on that day. I also Already discuss with the property incharge Mr Ewan to cancel the room & he agreed about the cancellation because that is the mistake from the property. He also said to me,just cancel at the booking.com & my money will refund. But untill now, I still not receive my money. Please advice
