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.).

Most of the staff is inattentive and lazy. In 2 weeks they managed only once to clean my room. Only the owner is friendly. It would be nice to have a little bit more in the room: a glass, some hooks or similar to dry wet swimming clothes
The room had everything what I needed: comfortable bed, silent Aircon, stable Wifi, small but a little bit noisy fridge, small terrace with fan. The location is good, next to a lot of good restaurants. Only noisy on Saturday night, when they have a band.

We made a mistake of leaving food out on the table and it wasn’t long until the ants found it. Refrigerate any food to prevent ants getting to it.
Excellent location. Room and bathroom are good size. It has a safe and refrigerator. The property has its own restaurant however we never ate there as there are cheaper options just in front and around town. Walking distance to the beach, supermarket and church.

The water in the shower drained slowly. Additionally, the heat pump was located in the terrace area, making it uncomfortably warm if you wanted to sit outside and enjoy a cool drink.
The staff was friendly, the location was prime and centrally located, and the rooms were clean and spacious. The shower was modern and spotless, the bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning was new and quiet—absolutely perfect!

TV wasn’t working the whole 2 nights stay, needs more hooks for towels & hangers for clothes. Shower was so week & hot water not working due to weak water pressure. Rooms next to bar was noisy until 11 PM, cannot sleep. The Tiki bar was kind of pricey compared to other nesrby restaurants, so we never ate there.
It’s accessible to many affordable restaurants, cafes, walking to beach but the access to the beach was too rough & rocky. Room was clean & comfortable. Has a small refrigerator & safety deposit.

Wifi didn't reach our room. For the price you pay wifi would be nice.
Nice staff, helpful, they facilitate motorbike rentals. Place is in a small courtyard behind the bar, music in Friday and Saturday night wasn't too loud and ended around 11. Directly next to mj square, very walkable to everything. Maybe a 10 minute ride to the ferry and 10 minute walk to Kota Beach. Food parks nearby and tons of restaurants.

It does not have a pool and I think that would make a big difference even if it was a very small one. Its not a long walk to the beach however.
The staff were great. Its a small hotel attached to a restaurant in the heart of town. The restaurant was good and many expats and their partners come to dine there.

The listing could be better, originally listed as 2 beds PER room but when we came to the property it was a double sized bed which technically still accommodates 2 people so it depends on what bed set-up your travelling companions are comfortable with. The comfort room door doesn't lock-up so hopefully you are comfortable with who you are with. The room and facilities themselves are clean but from what I have personally experienced during my stay, they need to clean the mattress support (or whatever that is called the things where you put the actual mattress on top of) for bugs because for some reason I can see a few especially in the wee hours in the wee hours in the morning even though we didn't brought anything dirty or that stinks. Wi-Fi was subpar especially when heavily congested by users with speeds averaging 3-5Mbps, resorted to using cellular mobile data instead. Need to put out a clear bedsheet change policy to avoid a possible misunderstanding with the owner.
The location was excellent and was smack dab where you wanted to be with the bars, food stalls and restaurants around the location. You can also easily access various tourist destinations right outside the property as there are tricycles waiting to offer inland tours Staff is easily approachable and you can order food from the front (their bar and restaurant) to your accommodation and eat it just outside the door of you accommodation (Note: owner prohibits eating food inside the rooms so they provide tables and chairs outside your room with a ceiling fan)
