Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IndonesiaI would add at least one piece of furniture and maybe a small desk to put the clothes away.
I loved the location - in the middle of the village so I felt I am experiencing the "real" Bali. It was very quiet and the staff was super friendly. Very close to beautiful hiking paths.

New ZealandCould not fault it!
Beautiful garden and family at Pondok Indah! Felt super relaxed and comfortable the whole time, so much so that we extended our stay. Plus the cute cats were a very friendly addition 😺 and the included daily breakfast was fantastic! The home stay is in a very peaceful part of the village, away from any traffic/cars and with plenty of great warungs to choose from within walking distance. The host was super helpful in organising a scooter for us to use, organising rice tours, and helping us get to our ferry on time in Padang bai. Will definitely stay again if we find ourselves near Sidemen again! Thank you Pondok Indah family! 🙏🙏🙏

United KingdomThe property is reached via a small road where cars can’t go, it’s a bit dark there at night but other than that it’s an ok location, not too far to walk to reach some restaurants, but need a taxi or motorbike for everything else (unless you want to walk a lot)
Nice clean room, the garden of the property is very beautiful and well curated. The pancakes for breakfast were really good and communication with the host was spot on. Loved the cat that came to say hi from time to time :)

Yoko was super friendly! Taught me how to ride a scooter and arranged transport to Amed at the last minute when my ride fell through. The room was comfortable and had everything I needed. Only in Amed for 2 days or else I would have done some tours with Yoko.

HungaryEverything about this place was exceptional, you can trust the reviews, it is definitely not too good to be true, it is actually this great 🥰 Spacious room with desk and an open shower which is amazing because this way you DON’T have the unpleasant smell that unfortunately many places in humid places like Bali have. We were so happy about this! 🙏🏼 The breakfast was tasty and beautifully presented, the little balcony is super nice if you wanna chill a bit, which you probably do in Sidemen 😌 Many nice warungs around for food 👌🏽 Amazing value, we were quiet sad to learn that they were fully booked so we couldn’t extend our stay here 🥲 Would return any time!
