Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe shower was ok but it would get the whole room wet which could be a slight annoyance. The room also didn't have a room, that was not made clear. I hadn't realised at the time but I received a message from the manager on the day, to confirm that we were still arriving (we had already paid), so we weren't going to cancel. They had asked me to reply by 6pm otherwise the room would be up for sale again. Given that we were on a 7 hour bus journey and had no way of receiving or replying to this message, I felt this was a bit unfair. Luckily I seen the message at 17.40 and then replied, otherwise we wouldn't have had a room to stay. So for this reason I would recommend caution, and would not recommend staying here
Good location, wasn't too far for a walk from the ferry. Room wasn't a bad size and air conditioning worked a treat

MalaysiaThe parking lot is limited, not easy to find a spot during busy hours. It should be fine during nonbusy hours. The electricity will shut down once.
The hotel is beautifully adorned with art and creative elements. I love the decorations and the wall paintings. The price is affordable, it value for money. The staff sent a reminder a whatapps text, it made me feel warm. The location is great, because it is surrounded by many restaurants.

ThailandThe room was unclean, I stayed there for three nights, and they didn't have a daily cleanning service (you have to ask for it in each day). The bathroom was disappointing, small with bad smells.
The receptionists were good and helpful. Location is walkable to nearby bus stops, 7-11, parks, and in the area of little india. Ac working okay even though it made sounds at night.

United KingdomThe hotel room was quite small and cramped. No wardrobe or drawers for clothing. We stayed four nights, and we never received any room service of any description. The room was never cleaned and the tea,coffee or water was never replaced from the first day we arrived. There wasn't a refrigerator in the room and the TV channels were extremely limited to a few channels. With all that being said, the hotel is very useful as a base to stay at while visiting Georgetown and Penang. It served its purpose for my wife and I. We were in Penang on a visa run and we only intended on staying a few days anyway.
The location of the property was very convenient, more or less in the heart of Georgetown and little India. There are plenty of different choices of restaurants etc. It's also conveniently located near the bus terminals and ferry terminal. The hotel and its facilities were basic, but to be fair, it was a reasonable price for this type of accommodation. There was an electrical kettle and a hairdryer in the room and there's also a TV but there's not a lot of choice of channels, practically one or two TV channels..

United KingdomThe room had no windows and there's a lot of wear and tear. I didn't mind for a 1 night stay. There was noise late at night from other guests in my particular stay.
Great location in the Indian area of George Town. I stayed here for the proximity to the port to continue travelling the next day. The jungle themed decor was very interesting and unique. Not a bad place for a short stay given the price.
