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.).

A little bit away from the main area but it’s close with a scooter. The room was big and the internet was good. Breakfast was a pancake and they offered tea and coffee via a drink station. There is also some warungs at the end of the street which are affordable to try some local food

The room was a bit hot with only the fan but that can be sorted by just opening the windows. This place is really value for the money you pay and breakfast 🥞 was delicious. I would definitely come back here in the future.
Felt welcomed and looked after.

No place to put soap, toiletries I was charged for the ferry to Gili T but when I got to the harbour the counter staff said the ticket was invalid. Didn’t know whose fault it was. I felt cheated. I was without water twice. Once when i was in the shower!
Close to the main road. Bike for rental. Big room

Wish there was hot shower but not a biggie since the weather was warm.
The facilities were basic but what I love most about it was the homely vibe! Not only were Gani and his guests super friendly, the guests in the neighbouring homestays were incredibly sweet too. It was also really convenient as there are minimarts and an eatery right around the corner. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a budget accommodation.

Our experience was poor but I'm sure we just got unlucky. We were hoping to get some quiet at the homestay for two days. We arrived and basic amenities such as towels, toilet paper and bins were not in the room, we had to specifically ask for it. The room and bathroom was also not very clean. In the morning there was a building site right by our patio, which was really noisy. The free breakfast was two uncooked banana pancakes and the coffee station in the courtyard wasn't communicated either. We left after our first night. Our early checkout also seemed to go unnoticed with the staff. The location, as suggested by many, requires a scooter.
For a few nights as a budget traveller, it's definitely basic but it's also cheap.

What a lovely stay! The owners/ family are so friendly and help you, if you have a question. I felt comfortable here. I love the little couch in front of my room. I also met nice people during my stay. The location is easy to reach and the family has a small shop in front of the Homestay, if you need water or a snack. I liked the authentic village atmosphere. Terima kasih Tika and Sam :)
