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 StatesBe prepared for small bugs or lizards in your room! This is common in Bali but important to keep in mind if this is a factor for you.
Great location! Very walkable and close to the beach. Great value!

AustraliaNo negatives about Bale. Excellent stay However, fireworks going off very close late at night most nights. The local money changer in the street is a thief, good with his hands can steal money from you without you noticing.
Small secluded and private property Very clean and safe. The lady who cleans every day is a wonderful helpful person.

Panama1. Room is a touch on the small side. Bed is against the wall and the second person can not go in and out easily. But there is no space to do that. 2. We stayed 2 nights there. There was a kitchen and there were bread and Jam and butter. I wrote and ask the owner and was told we can not eat the bread or jam because we did not have breakfast option. The thing is, the option was not available in booking.com. and if they don't want us to eat the bread, why leave the food there and leave the kitchen open etc. Our family booked the whole place and it is not as if there are other guests. The bread sat there for three days. Not consumed. Wasted. 3. No water on our Day 3. A few of us that used the pool in the morning were not able to take a shower before getting on the plane. But I know it was not in the control of the property as it was the local water supply that was in charge. Also as a sugguestion, it would be good if there is a shower outside. 4. It was warm sitting outside under the roofed passage. Just as a suggestion, it would have helped if there were ceiling fans outside each room and it would had been more comfortable for guests on hot days/evening and can still sit outside. There are no chairs inside the rooms at all. therefore one has to sit outside. 5. Have to walk through a very smelly and dirty river to get to beach ....em.....I wonder where the dirt water goes. 😱
1 Everything that was there . 2. Garden was relaxing. 3. Bathroom was spacious. 4. Very central. 5. Close to beach. 6. Close to restaurants but yet quiet. Al in all, we had a great stay there as a family.

AustraliaNo dining table and chairs only low wooden outdoor settings which were too low and hard for my Mum to sit on. The kitchen could do with an update everything was out on the bench. It would be nice to see it all stored in a clean cupboard. While Kuningan day was on there were no staff around not even we checked out.
The location was great, very close to the beach and some of my favourite eateries. Loved the pool and the garden. The rooms are quite small and basic but had everything I needed. Water was supplied and a shared fridge. Very basic kitchen area for anyone to use. Free wifi and aircon. The First Lady who was doing the cleaning and caretaking was absolutely excellent such a hard worker, friendly and helpful. I think her name was Ali. She has been there for two years and I could tell she took great pride in her work.

MalaysiaAs per other reviews, the walls seperating the rooms are very thin - I could hear the people next to me talking, snoring.
The location is excellent - in a quiet road in the middle of a very vibey Seminyak. The beach is a 2min stroll away!

BelgiumThe bed/pillows were not the most comfortable. Keep in mind also that it’s a bit loud at night with dogs barking etc. (we had this everywhere in Bali), so bring earplugs :)
Lovely little place which feels very private even though it’s close to everything. We particularly appreciated the little kitchen with free roasts and coffee/tea. Very nice and clean pool area as well!

PortugalThe room is too tiny, and the pool is too small, not at all corresponding to the photos on booking. The hotel is located near a sewage river, so the smell nearby is terrible. The wall are super thin and even if your neighbors are mindful of not making noise, we hear everything.
The property is decorated with excellent taste, very clean and the staff is friendly. It’s nice that we can use the kitchen. Comparing to other places in seminyak, the location is quite peaceful.

AustraliaBarking dogs outside/next door occasionally disturbed sleep. Hard to find: does not come up as a destination when booking a Grab - try the adjacent temple Pura Petitenget.
Relaxing tropical oasis (just 4 rooms) with a lovely tropical garden and pool, about 100 metres from Petitenget beach and a couple of minutes from the main restaurant and resort strip.

AustriaWalls are thin so could hear neighbour snore. If all guests are outside its crowded as its really small areal. Kitchen could do with some up keep as the dirty laundry was there in a pile. Old water bottles, cupboards full of building material. Hard to find. Street not on map and taxi couldn't find it. Narrow alley way to beach across a smelly river and rubbish along the way.
Well maintained property with garden and small pool. Beds big and comfortable. Room very clean. Small areal felt like home untill 1 loud guest arrived. Kitchen with big fridge water tea coffee and toast provided. Close to the beach and Temple. Quiet. Very friendly staff.
