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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

Verified reviewBorobudur temple is 10 mininutes walk . Local Market is very near Shops are very near. Bank teller to withdraw 5 minutes walk. Surrounding is very quiet and less noise from traffic. Your are living in a village environment As we arrived from airport the lady in-charge of the place took us to the local market for us to buy the provisions. We had separate cooking facilities . Lady in-charge arrange a English speaking driver to pick up from the airport and do other guide work from him finally he dropped us back to the airport on our return. He was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Have to be prepared for mosquitos. Wi fi is weak in the room and you have to come out to outside sitting area.
Thank you Mr Adikari and wife for giving a good review, and for choosing ADA Homestay as a place to stay. We will continue to improve the shortcomings of our accommodation. We look forward to welcoming you in the future.

Verified reviewIf you want to visit the temple and watch the sunrise early morning, it‘s a good place to stay. There are shops and restaurants within walking distance. The staff are very friendly and helpful, they helped me find a transportation back to Yogyakarta because I could not get a Grab from there. Just be aware the most guided tours start from Yogyakarta, so you will pay the way to Borobudur and back, although you are already on the spot.

Verified reviewThe two ladies who run the guesthouse keep everything in ship shape, all while offering guests genuine smiles and sincere hospitality. I fell into conversation with Yuni the night I had arrived, and it ended up in her taking me on a spontaneous mini food tour on her motorbike. Knowing that I wanted to try less well-known local dishes, she went to the market the next morning to get me food that I wouldn't have been able to find by myself. It was a complete surprise and a lovely gesture which made me feel very touched. While that was the highlight of my short stay, the room smelled fresh and was spotlessly clean, the bed was firm, the shower was hot, and air-conditioning was cold. Drinking water was provided, and you can borrow their bicycles at no extra cost. It's also within walking distance of Borobudur and very near the bus station.
The Wi-Fi in my room erred on the weak side and the connection had dropped several times.

Oh she cook excellent breakfast too with small cost.
The place surrounding has mosquitoes so make sure you have window close. The room furnishing is dated but in process of up grading room by room , room and toilet are very clean however .

Verified reviewThis property is all about the location. It's about 20 min walk from the Borobudur Temple, which alone is worth every cent. The staff were the friendliest and even occasionally brought out little nibbles. I was only here for two nights, but the general vibe was perfect. I was happy here.
There was no wifi in my room. I suggest getting a room closer to the social area because the internet works fine there. My morning shower was freezing cold!

Verified reviewThe staff was very friendly and helpful and the room was large. Within walking distance of Borobudur and the main street with many shops, supermarkets and food, and also. The beds were comfortable, we had airconditioning, and the shower even had warm water. There was a Western style toilet with a hose and also toilet paper.
The wifi was unreliable and we had no internet signal on our Telkomsel sim card anywhere in the town, so anything requiring internet was problematic. The Islamic call to prayer starts early in the morning and is loud here, so bring ear plugs if this bothers you.

Verified reviewThough breakfast was not supposed to be included, but because our stay was long, 6 days, the host Yuni provided us free breakfast every morning! It was local Indonesian breakfast which was delicious and suited us just fine. Location is just a 5 minute walk to the Borobudur Temple! Cheap laundry - IDR 10,000 (A$1) per kg and clothes returned neatly folded. Provided airport pickup and drop-off service cheaper than airport taxis. Yuni was the perfect host, spent the whole day with us touring the Borobudur Temple complex, translating for us. She wanted to practice her English as well. When we wanted to try Indonesian curries with reduced chili and salt, Yuni took me on her motorbike to several restaurants until I got exactly what I wanted. Also when we went to the Borobudur Sunrise hilltop lookout, Yuni went ahead early in her bike and bought tickets for us to beat the long queue. As mentioned before, she's the perfect host!
Having a microwave oven in the common kitchen would be nice. But then again, the host Yuni heated up our leftover food from the common fridge in her own kitchen and served, so not much to complain about.
Thanks you Mr Glenn Tun for your review. your suggestion will be done for improvements. so glad to serve you and your family. we are also glad that you enjoy the traditional food that we serve. Hoping to see you again .
