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 reviewThe family is lovely, and the location is conveniently close to the center of Ubud.
The accommodation requires renovation, exhibiting an outdated aesthetic. The air conditioning unit operates audibly, and there is evidence of moisture throughout the room's walls. Furthermore, the breakfast service was unsatisfactory.

Verified reviewFresh fruit included in complimentary breakfast. A/C worked great. Staff is supper friendly and accommodating. Good location. For price the place was acceptable. Lots of windows in room to let in plenty of sunlight. Provided drying rack for your clothes or towels.
Room light was too dim. No light over mirror in bathroom. Need more hooks and places to hang your things. Paint peeling on walls. First room we were booked into smelt so much of mold that it started to make me cough, but when I told this to management they immediately switched me to a room that did not smell musty and moldy

Verified reviewVery friendly and beautiful entrance. We enjoyed being welcomed into an authentic Indonesian home. Good breakfast and value for money. Good balcony area and fairly quiet but good location to attractions.
For what you are paying it reflects what you get so be reasonable in your expectations for the room.

Verified reviewThe location and the breakfast.
My stay was disappointing. The room wasn’t very clean. The bathroom had no proper lighting and felt like a cave with two tiny windows that you couldn't open, and the towels were dirty on arrival. The atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and I left a night early without any offer of a refund. Sadly, the usual warm Indonesian hospitality was missing and it felt like the focus was more on taking money from guests than creating a comfortable, inviting environment.

Verified reviewThe location is excellent — it’s a very quiet area but still close to the center and everything you need. The owners, who live on the property, are very kind and friendly. Our 2-year-old child felt great and enjoyed playing with the owners’ children. The breakfast was good but quite limited. The yard is beautiful and well maintained. The young man who works there is very kind and helpful — he was the one who cleaned our room every time and I can say he does a really great job. We stayed here for two weeks and we felt very good and comfortable.
Of course, there were also a few downsides. For us, the biggest one was that the room didn’t have any closet, so we had to improvise and keep most of our clothes on the floor. There are a few hangers, but only enough for a few T-shirts. The furniture is a bit old — the edges of the bed are coming apart and can be quite dangerous, especially for children who might hit them and get cut. There is a small table and two chairs in the room, but they are also a bit worn out, partly rusty, and could really use a fresh coat of paint. In short, the room we stayed in could really use some renovation, and a wardrobe would be exceptional.

Verified review-Location, very centrally located in a quiet Ubud Street, it‘s a real peaceful oasis compared to the buzzyness of Ubuds Main streets. There Are plenty of Shops and restaurants in walking-distance. - the kindeness of the host-family, it‘s an imersion into Balinese Culture. - what you get for the price is unbeatable.

Verified reviewI booked for 2 nights and ended up staying 9- that’s how much I love it! The room was big and very clean, and the whole guesthouse was spotless. The family was incredibly kind and welcoming — I truly felt at home. Location was perfect: close to everything but quiet at night. And the breakfast — banana pancakes and omelette was absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely be back!
