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.).

Some rooms appliances should be more cleaned (light switches, showerhead holder) Water unpleasant smell Although manager was friendly, he was checking my body out several times during convos which was inappropriate and unpleasant

Verified reviewGeneral upkeep sound, good quiet policy, excellent bed. Aircon serviced.
Room was designed for fan with large wall mesh vents which limit aircon ability, and will make you feel bad for using it. Could velcro covers be made for when someone chooses aircon option? Other reviews say cleanliness impecable, it wasn't, though I've no complaints here.

Verified reviewClean budget stay. Friendly helpful host. No food on-site, or moped hire (as some reviews say), but bicycle hire, and 2-3 places to eat within 100m, centre or town only 5-10 min walk. No AC, but fan works fine, was there in January and didn't need AC. Wi-Fi works fine too. No fridge, but a kettle and glasses.
Ground floor rooms window onto courtyard, so not particularly private, not sure about the upper ones. Can't complain for the price though. Advertised on Booking with a restaurant on-site, but there isn't. Places close by though.

Verified reviewAttentive owner always there to make guest feel comfortable. Nice rooms, especially in the second floor, with kind of a shared balcony hallway. Spotless rooms with dimmable night light. Enjoyed the possibility of renting good condition grandmother style one gear bicycles 1,25$/day to explore the surroundings. Onward travel bookable hassle free and free water refills. With this price it doesn’t get better than this. Highly recommended.

Verified reviewDickens , the owner, was most helpful and polite. I thoroughly enjoyed my brief stay at Ta Eng Guesthouse and wish I had stayed there before. The location is in a quiet part of town and around a ten minute walk to the Durian roundabout. I would like to thank him for all the drinks he gave me as part of the Chinese New Year festivities !

Verified reviewIt met all our needs. Was very reasonably priced and the staff were very nice and helpful. Bed was soft but comfortable.
It was very warm even with the fan, opt for a room with ac! Bathroom was quite small but was otherwise fine. A bit of a ways from town, it would have been nice to be closer but we did find some things to do and places to eat close by.
