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 reviewAhdi, the host, is super friendly and kind. He made my stay safe and joyful, dropping me to the little village and sharing information, playing guitar and singing together. Its a lovely, quiet place to stay with a beautiful garden.
Bit of a walk uphill to the main part of Senaru, but the host Ahdi will offer to drop you. Great value for money. Not a true homestay as no family lives in the home, it's more a guest house.

Verified reviewAdi (guesthouse manager) made the place so cool to hang! He’s always there with a smile and willing to help out with anything needed. Room is basic, had a comfy bed and surprisingly hot shower in the day. Wifi is okayy too.
A little far from the central part of Senaru where most things happen but one could take a walk.

Verified reviewGreat staff, very friendly and eager to practice their English. We had the basic room, no A/C but good value for the price and the fan was OK. . Location was great, plenty of places to walk to for food. The homestay can arrange Mt Rinjani trekking if required. Breakfast was banana pancakes-yum!
Only one powerpoint in the room, so either turn on the fan or charge your phone.

Verified reviewIt was in the middle of the village, you have a good Warung close. They offer lunch or dinner if you want it. They are kind and helpful.
Maybe they can add some fruit or more ideas for breakfast. But the pancake was tasty. The room is not super cool, but is perfect for sleeping comfortably.

Verified reviewWe had a really nice stay, the owner and his staff was really nice! They made us very good food! It was the best nasi goreng i have had. They keep it clean. In the evening they played the guitar and it was overall really welcoming. It is also not far from the mount rinjani and they will help you with everything, including becoming your taxi back to bangsal!

Verified reviewIt was hard leaving this place! The area is quiet at night, close to the waterfalls and the city center, the rooms have everything you need to be comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, and Ahdi and his wife are wonderful hosts who went way above and beyond to make sure our experience in Senaru was amazing (and it absolutely was). Never have I felt so at home in a local community, thank you guys so much for having us! 10/10 recommend staying here.

Verified reviewAmazing host! Ardi and his wife are so kind and welcoming. They went above and beyond with making sure we had a true “local” experience! Very peaceful garden space. Great location for visiting water falls and traditional village
Basic facilities, but fair for the price. Room a bit hot with no AC.

Verified reviewEverything was perfect. The people were incredible, as was the food. Ardi and the whole family were genuinely the kindest and most helpful people we have ever met. We were so sad to leave and can’t wait to come back as soon as we can! This was our favourite place in Indonesia and we can’t recommend it enough! :)
Nothing- best place ever!
