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 reviewAll of the staff/ owners were so helpful and friendly. They made you feel at home so much that I extended for another night.The accommodation was good, clean,soap provided, toilet roll, a kettle, fridge, and tv. It's not a bad location, everything within walking distance. Good value. I would recommend it.
The only downsides were that the bed was a little uncomfortable for me. One side of the mattress is more worn than the other. The towel, especially, needed a boil wash and the bedding, including the pillows.

Verified reviewVery clean. Hot water and good water pressure. Bathroom didn't have that sewage smell like some places in bali. Strong and cold aircon. Good location close to barber, beach, restaurants, markets laundry etc. Staff was kind and quiet.
There's some street dogs that frequent the property and the alley near the property. Everything else was great.

Verified reviewThe staff at the homestay were so friendly and welcoming! The room itself was clean and comfortable. I was travelling alone and visiting for a week so it was perfect for me. The location was perfect - only a ten minute walk from the beach and there were plenty of shops, coffee shops and restaurants nearby.
My stay was perfect. I would definitely consider staying here if I visit Bali again.

Verified reviewAt the beginning it was good but then little while little things started getting worse like there is a hen who keeps on shouting 24*7 like literally trust me on this you will be disappointed at night while sleeping and its frustrating after a long and tired journey
At first, everything seemed fine, but gradually things started to go downhill. There’s a hen nearby that literally won’t stop making noise—24/7. Trust me, it’s incredibly frustrating, especially when you’re trying to rest after a long and exhausting day. I stayed there for two days and requested a fresh towel, but the staff told me they were out of stock. That was surprising and disappointing. Normally, you’d expect at least basic housekeeping—like clean rooms and fresh bed sheets—but even a simple request for towels was denied.

Verified reviewThe location was good. Just outside of the main part of Kuta, about 20 minutes walk to local eateries etc. A few minutes from local supermarkets which was handy for stocking up on liquids. Smart TV included A/C was very good and cold 🙂
The only issue was the roosters in the morning that can be heard nearby. Interrupted sleep on first night, however I adjusted sleep pattern to accommodate. Apart from that tho a good budget friendly option

Verified reviewThe location was a close walk to all shopping and eating areas. I lived at the hotel 3-4 weeks and felt safe at all times. There was always security day ad night and I appreciate they made me feel at home. Rafael and Mr were lovely and my requests were always met cheerfully and not a bother. Both are hard-working and they could often be seen maintaining the hotel. There was also one other who did one off heavy work. Staff were very kind and helpful. I was put into another room after an especially heavy rainfall loosened roof tiles in the bathroom. It was also a lovely room with a beautiful view.
For the owner. The S bend pipe in the bathroom washbasin needs to be cleaned. This is a job for a plumber. It was slow emptying and will soon stop draining.
