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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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):
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.
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.).

The location was fantastic. We drove from KL and it was easy to find. Once parked at the property, we walked everywhere, as it was within walking distance to Jonker Street. Steven made us feel very welcomed and walked us through places to go, and food to eat, which was very useful!

1. The hospitality of the host ofcourse. Steven Yong is such a wonderful, humorous and cheeky host 😁. He recommended many local food to us on check in day, tough we couldn't try it all in the course of 1 and half day visit 😅. And on the morning of the check out day, he DRIVED us to Melaka Sentral himself for free. Thank you so much Steven 🙏👊. 2. The location is just a stoneaway from Malacca center point and Jonker food area, as you visit Malacca for food ofcourse Hehe. A few minutes walking, your eyes treated with Malacca River and one the famous 17th century European historical site and building area in Malaya. 3. The facilities is nice and complete. Besides the privacy and the comfort of your bedroom, you can use and enjoy all the shared facilities such as bathroom , kitchen utensil & dishes, microwave, drinking water freeflow, free complimentary coffee-sugar-instant cupnoodles, washing machine and ironing, umbrella, all in good and clean condition. If you stay longer I'm sure that'll be helpful. Overall I enjoy my stay so much 😊.

We felt like we're home. The place is just over the top. Steven was so friendly. He was waiting for us with a big smile on his face. He even prepared the map of Malacca with the whole highlights of the city. He explained every detail about the places we have to visit. We got from him a few addresses of different kind of restaurants in the city cuz we're vegetarian. You can use the wash machine and the fridge for free. There is also hot and cold water for drinking. The location is just in the heart of the city. Finally he drove us to the main bus station. You will never regret your staying at the one vacation home. Thanks Steven for everything!

NetherlandsSteven was the best host I have had so far. What a dude. I arrived late, he showed up without compaints. I only stayed one night, but he still explained all fun activities to me. I was allowed to leave my bags after check-out. And best of all: he brought me to the bus station (20 min drive!), even though he didnt need to. Awesome man! He made Melaka awesome for me. The homestay is awesome too. Very clean, extremely comfortable bed, good facilities (free coffee, noodles, tea, etc.). Very close to the center, a few minutes to walk. A lot of nice restaurants nearby. Melaka was absolutely amazing, and this accommodation is a big part of the reason. I'll be back.

United KingdomA great place to stay in Melaka! Lovely little guesthouse just a stone's throw away from the centre, and there were some good food spots about a 2 minute walk away. The room was small but comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. Steven himself was welcoming and so helpful with recommendations. He even took us to the bus station after we checked out, what a legend. Great value for money overall.

This's a cosy nice place to stay in Melaka. The house's located in a small local street, only 7-10 mins away from Jonker walk. Easy to go everywhere. The neighbourhood is quiet and the people there are very friendly, not because we're tourists but because they're kind. The house is spacious, has everything you need as a traveller or if you want to stay some days away from busy cities. By the way, the most excellent for us was not the house, but the host. Steven didn't even make his house to be comfortable for his guests, but also made his guests comfortable. You can easily contact him and he answers very fast. He told us important things about travelling in Melaka and suggested a lot of good local restaurants. We loved the small Satay place that's very close to the house, just 1-2 mins to walk. Steven also took us to a massage parlour in the centre and brought us to the bus station on the day we checked out. Would recommend.

The entire home was awesome, the location is perfect 7 minutes walk to any attraction in the city and in the same time it is located on very quiet street. Near by is one of the best food market. Our room is very well equiped and was extremely clean and tidy. Bed was very comfortable and it is big and comfy for 2 persons. The bathroom is specious and have non stop hot water. Stiven that met us is lovely guy that explain us everything for our stay in the home and give us very good advises what to do in the city and where to eat. When we leave he give us a free ride to Malacca Sentral and that is awesome. He is very positive guy and wish him all the best. Keep going in that way it was great experience. Definitely recommended this place for stay in Malacca and will visit it again.
