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 reviewVery clean double pod. Location is right next to Juanda station.
Using an app for entry into the room. As usual in Jakarta there are rats around the area, so seeing a rat trap in the corridor 2 metres from where I was sleeping wasn't comforting , rather it made me think they may have rats getting in to the building. I must stress I did not see any sign of rats , and everywhere was clean , but a rat trap wasn't what I wanted to see.
Hello Mr/Ms. Christopher, Warm greetings from Bobobox Indonesia! Thank you for sharing your experience with Bobopod Juanda. We appreciate your understanding regarding the use of our digital room entry system, and we’re glad to hear you found the premises clean throughout your visit. Regarding the rat trap you noticed in the corridor please allow us to reassure you. The trap is a preventive measure, placed discreetly as part of our routine pest control protocols, which are essential in any major city like Jakarta. While we understand that seeing one can be unsettling, its presence is not due to an active issue inside the building but rather part of our efforts to ensure the environment remains clean, safe, and pest-free. If there is anything we can do to enhance your experience during future visits, please don’t hesitate to let us know. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and provide a better stay next time 🐨 Warm regards 🐨 Syasya Customer Care Unit | Bobobox Indonesia

Pods are not soundproofed so can be noisy either from person in next pod or one above you, or from people moving about early morning, late at night.
Hello Mr/Ms. Bronia, Warm greetings from Bobobox Indonesia! Thank you for sharing your experience with Bobopod Juanda. We’re truly sorry to hear that noise from neighboring pods and common areas affected your comfort. While our pod-style accommodation is designed to offer a unique, compact experience, we understand how important a quiet environment is for restful sleep. Please know that we are actively reviewing ways to improve sound insulation and minimize disruptions, especially during quiet hours. In the meantime, we are also reminding all guests to be mindful of noise, particularly in the late evening and early morning.

Verified reviewA typical bobopod, good location,clean,hot shower and free drinking water. I would recommend it for one night.
The pods don't have windows,which is ok. But this time the common area didn't have any windows either. So you cannot see any sunlight or whether the rain stopped. There is no fresh air,so hanging out there is not fun (compared to the previous bobopods I had stayed at). Plus the access from the street is so easy that anyone can walk in, because the main door is often left open, so it didn't feel very safe .
Hello Mr/Ms. Marina, Warm greetings from Bobobox Indonesia! Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay at Bobopod Juanda. We sincerely apologize for the unpleasant experience you had and the discomfort caused. We’re sorry to hear that this visit didn’t match the experience you’ve had at our other Bobopod locations. We understand how important natural light and fresh air can be especially in shared spaces and we regret that the common area in this property did not meet your expectations. We’re currently reviewing design aspects of our communal zones, and your feedback will be part of that ongoing discussion. We also take guest safety very seriously. While we have security measures in place, it’s clear from your experience that more needs to be done to ensure our entry points are secure at all times. We’ve flagged this with our onsite team for immediate attention. Your feedback is extremely important in helping us maintain a safe and comfortable environment for all guests. Should you have any further concerns, feel free to reach out to our Customer Care via WhatsApp (Chat Only). We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again with a much-improved experience.

Verified reviewClean room & bathroom Very close to a train station
This is definitely not an accomodation for travellers. Even the common room is not really intended to hang out and talk to other travellers - also since there seem to be no other backpackers around (rather Indonesian people for work). Also if you check out but store your luggage there to come back in the afternoon to get it and get ready for a night bus, you are apparently not seen as a guest anymore and thus not allowed to use the (shared) bathroom to quickly shower or just to get rid of your contact lenses. No accomodation ever, that I had, treated guests like that. The "breakfast" is a joke: a microwave food with tons of plastic to throw away. The capsule room was so badly insulated that I heard every minute the timer of the microwave "breakfast" of other guests. Coffee out of a questionable machine had to be paid extra. You have to install and setup an app to checkin. The only thing it does is open the room through a QR code instead of a keycard. The setup process still requires that staff is present und you get a physical key for the shoe locker anyway. Thus I found the app quite irritating and pointless. In summary: This is the most unpersonal accomodation with exceptiobally unhelpful staff that I ever had. Is is the pure opposite of a hostel as I undeestand them.
Hello Mr/Ms. André, Warm greetings from Bobobox Indonesia! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Bobopod Juanda. We’re sorry to hear that you experienced issues with noise during your stay. We truly value all feedback, whether positive or critical, as it helps us improve the quality of our service and better meet the expectations of our guests. We regret that the environment did not foster the kind of social and relaxed experience often associated with hostels. While our space accommodates a variety of travelers, we understand that this can sometimes affect the community feel some guests are looking for. Our policy regarding the use of shared bathrooms after check-out felt unaccommodating. We will review this practice internally to see if there’s a more flexible approach we can take for guests preparing for onward travel. Your feedback about breakfast will be shared with our facilities team to explore improvements both in meal quality and noise reduction. We understand that technology should simplify, not complicate, the check-in process. Your comments about the app and its limited functionality have been noted and will be reviewed with our development team. Last, we are disappointed to hear that our staff came across as unhelpful or impersonal. This is far from the level of hospitality we aim to provide, and we will ensure this is addressed in our next team training. We sincerely apologize for your experience and would welcome the chance to make things right, should you consider staying with us again in the future. If you have any further questions or would like to discuss anything else, please feel free to contact our Customer Care via WhatsApp (Chat Only).

Verified reviewI was looking for a place just to get a nice rest after my flight and before my next train and this one was perfect for that. Good water pressure, privacy, clean, enough space in the capsule to sort out your stuff, market and restaurants nearby. It is not a social place if you are looking to meet new people.
