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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomBe aware that the call to prayer can be quite loud in this location - not the fault of the accommodation but it's worth noting, this is Indonesia after all! You will also be sharing your space with the odd gecko, again, nothing that can be helped by the accommodation but it's worth mentioning as some people may want to be aware of this in advance.
The hospitality was amazing, really good service and the food was absolutely lovely. Really close to Borobudur as well. The rooms and site are really nice also.

MalaysiaThere was no kettle, fridge, or safety deposit box in the room, but you can get both hot and cold water from a dispenser in the restaurant kitchen. Still, considering that there is no convenience store nearby, I would appreciate these amenities in the room. Do keep in mind that the hotel is close to paddy fields, so insects and small animals are around - something to be aware of if you’re not used to nature.
The hotel features a beautiful garden and pool - perfect for relaxing. The staff were very kind and helped carry my luggage, which was much appreciated. If you walk along the main road toward the next hotel, you’ll catch stunning views of Merapi volcano and even see the top of Borobudur directly from the hotel.

AustraliaLocated in quiet kampung in the rice fields a short distance from Borobodur temple. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly. All meals were excellent and generous servings. The manager helped arrange an excellent day tour for us and we enjoyed the use of bicycles to explore the local area. We highly recommend Rumah Dharma

IndonesiaBecause you sit outdoors there were many small flying insects that bite despite the staff’s efforts to provide insect coils and spray. But they try!
Beautiful traditional Javanese village houses with modern bathrooms set in the midst of rice paddies a half hour walk from the famous Borobudur temple. Breakfast is served in a separate gazebo overlooking the paddies and swimming pool.

United KingdomLeaving!
Fantastic little hotel! The location in the rice paddies is beautiful, and you can even glimpse Borobudur Temple over the trees. Both Borobudur and Mendut Temples are within walking/cycling distance, and there are lovely nearby villages that are easily explored. The swimming pool is lovely after a hot day sightseeing, and the food (breakfast & dinner - local Javanese) is exceptionally tasty, plentiful, and good value. Staff are all really friendly and helpful, and even gave me a little leaving gift. Rooms are large, comfortable, and clean. Stayed an extra night and would have stayed even longer if I didn't have to fly home! Perfect place to stay if you are attending for Vesak Day or general sightseeing.

CanadaOnly one little thing worth mentioning was when we arrived before the check-in time of 2pm even though our rooms were ready the policy was to charge an additional 200,000 rupees to get early access . We opted to wait!
The meals tasted like they came out of a 5 star restaurant. The staff couldn’t have been nicer. The location was only a half hour walk or 5 minutes taxi ride to Borobudur Temple. The individual units were pretty basic but comfortable and clean

Borobudur temple in 15 mins walking distance(they offer bicycles to move around) Practical but large room size. Delicious home cooking meal (so don't go out for food).

AustraliaWe stayed for 3 nights at Rumah Dharma and we absolutely loved it! The staff provided excellent customer service — they were very accommodating and helpful throughout our stay. We were also lucky to have the best villa room with a calming view of the rice fields. The food, from breakfast to dinner, was delicious. If we return in the future, we will definitely choose to stay at Rumah Dharma again. A big thank you to all the staff for making our stay so enjoyable!
