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.).

AustraliaVery kind and hospitable hosts and staff. The property is located a little higher up in Ta Van and about a ten minute walk or so to the main area of the village where the restaurants and shops are. A cosy stay that I can personally recommend.

Amazing hosts, great family and super cute kids. The rooms are spacious and clean with a great rice field view. The heating blankets are a game changer! They keep you so warm even when it’s freezing! We also highly recommend the family dinner, we had a great time! The hosts also helped us book taxis and rent scooters for reasonable prices.

IndiaWe had a lovely time at Tavan Dragon House. The hosts welcomed us warmly with their 2 kids, and we've been able to share a dinner with them. The house is beautiful and well situated with easy and nice treks around.

United KingdomThe road outside was busy and noisy from early in the morning.
Friendly family, nice wooden building and very clean. The bed was very comfortable and had heating although we didn’t use this. The shared bathroom was clean, had a great hot shower and toiletries available. Free breakfast was tasty banana pancakes although we had to pay for a coffee. Small bottled water was expensive. A very nice place and family with great views from the bed.

CanadaMost places in Vietnam charge extra 2-3% for credit card payments, but this place charged 15%, so I just ended up paying in cash. My room's window view was completely obstructed by the tree branches, so there was no view (although there would've been none during my stay, anyway, as it was so foggy). If the view is what you're booking the place for, make sure you book a different room or a place!
The bed had an electric blanket to keep me warm all night long despite the freezing cold December weather in Ta Van, and looking out the big window from my warm bed every morning felt wonderful. The whole building seems very new and kept super clean.

MaltaHeartwarming and welcoming family, super sweet and took care of us well. We were genuinely sad to leave this place! Lovely new yet still authentic house, including comfortable bedding. Along with the soothing sound of a stream, it has amazing views throughout that you can look at all day. The home-cooked dinners were incredible. Lots of trekking options in the Ta Van area, some good restaurants and convenience shops within walking distance.

AustraliaAs they grow they need some more furniture in the bedrooms - some drawers and small wardrobe perhaps.
A genuine family house, timber construction with new fittings and timber furniture. although bathrooms are, strictly speaking, shared they are just across the hallway, individual and private. sitting down with the family for an evening meal was very special and reading Vietnamese books with the children afterwards was heartwarming.

CanadaNothing, everything was perfect.
We loved everything about this property! If you are looking for beautiful scenery away from the Sapa action, Ta Van is a wonderful place and Tavan Dragon House is an amazing Homestay! Our host was so friendly, helpful and generous. Her food was amazing! We felt welcome into her Homestay immediately. She also found us an amazing guide for an exceptional trek into the mountain and the beautiful rice fields. I cannot recommend this Homestay enough!
