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 reviewI love the location. If you need to stay in a place where it’s far from the city but still accessible, this is the place. Right in front of the beach and the bus stop so if you need to go to the city it’s just right infront of the property. I love the heated beds!!!!!!! And the breakfast!! The friendliest staff!!!!
The shower was hot at first but then it just got cold

Verified reviewThe location, right beside the sea, is excellent. You have a very nice view from the large room! Getting to Taroko is a short ride if you have a car. Your big, Taiwanese style, breakfast is brought to your room.
The coffee is served cold and was a bit of a surprise. The description says that the staff speaks English.. not really. Nothing to be amazed about bacause most hotels / pensions outside Taipei have staff that can't speak English. But with hand signals you get what you require.

Verified reviewThis is the best place we could ask for in our entire trip in Taiwan. Weather was gloomy and rainy throughout our 9 days trip, and we were a little apprehensive coming to Hua Lien and living by the sea. Once we reached the accommodation, stepped into the reception (Breakfast) area and we were greeted by Miss Huang's cheerfulness, and huge windows with views to the stunning waters. You can see the pacific oceans right in your room, on good days when weather permits the sun rises in this direction. On our last day we also saw beautiful stars. Waking up and falling asleep to the sound of waves, is one of the best thing we can ask for. Toilet seats have warmer option, same for the bed that comes with a little warmer sheet below. It kept us so comfortable. Not to mention, the lady boss makes the best breakfast ever. We will miss her korean style breakfast, filled with so many different fermented vegetables and so good to start the day. Looking forward to return to this space again someday (:
Absolutely nothing. How can anyone not enjoy this place?
