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.).

GermanyThe stairways to the apartment iis off putting, as it looks almost like an abandoned house, but the appartment and rooms are in a good state.
It's definitely a good place to stay. Considering the location. The price and the dinner offered. The dinner will be local vietamese food, but they can adjust it to your diet too, like me, I am vegetarian. Also, the hosting family is very friendly and accommodating.

GermanyA very nice family who rents some rooms in their apartment. It is simple, but they have nice attention for the details. The room was big, comfortable beds and everything I needed. Very clean. It is a real vietnamite experience, and all the family is very nice. The dinner was absolutely amazing, a lot of food and very tasty. The position is also perfect to go everywhere walking. I recommend it

United StatesThe stairs were somewhat difficult to navigate but the owner helped us to carry our luggage upstairs.
The homestay is located on a quiet street near Ben Thanh market in city center. The owner and his family were very friendly and treated all guests to a wonderful, complimentary Vietnamese family-style dinner. From this homestay location we walked one block to Pasteur Street to catch Bus 152 to go Tan Son Nhut airport (SGN) for 5,000 VND (not even 20 cents)

A really authentic homestay experience - you are staying with a family in their home. It's not a hotel, so expectations should be as such. It was really clean and comfortable. Decent aircon in the bedroom. Yes, the bathroom is a bit small, but it's not a hotel. For the price, it's perfect. Dinner was really good both nights and there was lots of food. It was nice to have dinner together with the other guests. The host family were lovely, even letting me have a short lie down when I arrived in one of the family's rooms as mine wasn't ready yet. One of the best places I stayed in Vietnam.

New ZealandIt was a little difficult to find and the host wasn't there when I arrived, but arrived soon after. There are quite a few stairs to climb, the host happy to help with getting your luggage up.
The highlight was the dinner food. was great to eat with other traveller's too. The air conditioning was good and the room and bathroom had everything I needed. Excellent helpful host.

United KingdomThis was a truly authentic Vietnamese Homestay experience right in the heart of Saigon. The family living there were extremely welcoming and cooked for us twice. The food was delicious! We had a late flight out the next day, but the hosts let us leave our belongings there whilst we ventured out for the day and even cooked us another meal that evening! Incredible value for money!

FranceJust a warning to future guests: this is not a hotel, so don't expect full comfort and privacy. It's a real homestay/guest house where a Vietnamese family lives so please, respect them, their home and their lifestyle.
The homestay is very well-located and close to everything in the city center by walk. You really feel at home and get the chance to live as a Vietnamese. You have a private room and you share a bathroom with one or two other guests. Dinner is included and served every evening at 7 pm. The homemade food is delicious!! Thank you for this amazing experience.
