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 reviewWe had an AMAZING stay! The room was clean, comfortable and soundproof. Our kids were allowed to use the bodyboards and sand toys every day. The beach is just on the opposite side of the road and the 7-Eleven is next door - so the location is perfect. But the best was the amazing breakfast we got every day. It was by far the best food we had during our Taiwan journey. Really creative and absolutely great in taste. The hosts are so friendly and welcoming, that we were really sad to leave. Our stay was perfect and I can recommend it to anyone.

Verified reviewHands down our favorite place to stay when visiting South Bay / Nanwan area! Sabrina and Hank are amazing hosts that treat us like old friends/family when we stay. They have a fantastic and cool hotel with great views of the beautiful beach and ocean. They always help us with tours or advice on places to eat, etc. The breakfast is an absolute must have!!! Hank was a great chef with a world of experience as such. He prepares new breakfast each day and one breakfast better than the next. Whenever we are set to check out we are hit with a sadness that we are leaving our friends and the amazing attention to making our stay and trip as best as possible. Thank you both so much and can’t wait till next time!
Absolutely nothing!

Verified reviewProbably the best breakfast we had in Taiwan. If you’re sleeping there’s no point of not taking it :) It’s way better than all the restaurants in Nanwan for sure. The room was nice, clean and big enough. Owners are helpful.

Verified reviewTravelling to my favorite place in all of Taiwan- Nanwan I am always excited find the "right" place to stay. My girlfriend and I have been there three times and always great places but we decided to try a new one with Mini Summer. We were blown away by everything about our stay. Sabrina and Henry are the most gracious and kind hosts and truly care that your stay is top notch. The location is perfect with amazing view of ocean and surrounding area and right next to 7-11 which for those who know how awesome asian 7-11s are you are thrilled it is so close by. Room super clean and well laid out with high ceiling and you can tell it was recently renovated with lovely decor for the area. The final and most vital part of the review is what you will see from many others. The breakfast that Henry (former chef) prepares each morning is beyond words how amazingly delicious and high end it is. The ingredients and seasoning that Henry puts into each part of the dish is truly incredible and each day of three we had a totally different breakfast prepared super fresh. My gf and I would awake every morning excited to see what would be presented to us and each day we were truly blown away. We left there feeling as we found our perfect location in Nanwan and with new friends in Sabrina and Henry and can't wait to return next year on our annual visit. Thank you for what you have created with Mini Summer- Best Jane and Eric

Verified reviewThis is a Bed and Breakfast my family and I visited while we were in South Bay Beach. It is convenient to everything and I really enjoyed watching the waves from our balcony. The hostess is very nice and helped us to locate snorkeling places and where to find the items we needed. She let my son take beach toys (sand castles etc) from the hotel instead of having to purchase them. We will definitely stay here when we come next time. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to relax and enjoy Taiwan ! Just a note: the name is Mini Summer Hostel but it is not a Hostel. It is a very nice Bed and Breakfast with lots of privacy and spacious rooms. Look at the pics and see - it is very nice and better than the other hotels in the area

Verified reviewI've stayed at this hotel many times in the last five years. It is super convenient for anyone visiting South Bay Beach. Google suggests it is a two-star hotel but it is better than many three-star hotels I've stayed in across Taiwan (including in Kenting).

Verified review- Breakfast was different each day. It's a rather odd, eclectic mix, but overall, it's good. It's best to get there when it first begins at 9am, although it didn't appear to be much of a problem getting a seat in the small dinning room. - Front desk staff is nice (the younger woman speaks English) - Location is good. It's close to the beach entrance, and there is a 7/11 just down the way. It's also right next to Rock Pizza. - Wi-Fi seemed decent - Bed was comfortable - For the size of the room, the A/C unit up high on the wall still did a decent job cooling the room.
- The shower hot water was very hot and difficult to get it to balance well with the cold water. It seemed to go back and forth a lot. - Even though my room was on the third floor and faced the rear hill side, I could still hear the loud karaoke at night from some random place set back in the distance, although it didn't last for too long into the night.
