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.).

Israel-Room was tiny, no place for anything except beds. -Bathroom was in terrible condition- no hot water, sink water flows from the room to the bathroom floor, and there was no ventilation at all. -No towels- the staff provided towels just after we asked on the second day. Not recommended at all.
Location was good, and the beds were comfortable.

United KingdomBathroom floor took ages to drain after a shower meaning it was hard to use if you didn’t want wet feet. Only one plug socket and high up on the wall so little annoying to charge devices
Good location and price for doing Bromo independently. Had hot showers and hosts cooked us breakfast of bread, fried eggs and chips after getting back from Bromo at 11am. Host also helped us organise transport back to Probolingo. Check out time (12-1pm) also gives you plenty of time to explore Bromo in the morning.

GermanyThere was no sink in the bathroom/toilet. When we woke up in the morning to make the sunrise tour to Bromo there was no electricity and no water. So we had a hard time getting our stuff together and using the bathroom.
- the stuff was very friendly and helpful - you can walk from the homestay to the sunrise point in 1:30 hours.

GermanyThe room was simple but it suited our needs for two nights. Unlike we read in other reviews, our bathroom had a sink and a normal functioning toilet. The bed was super comfortable and it had a thick blanket. The wifi also worked great. The free breakfast was very good to regain our energy after our hikes. The owners were very kind and friendly. They helped us to book our transfer to Cemorolawang and back to Probolinggo. For the price, there’s nothing to complain about.

BrazilRoom smelled very bad and moldy, incredibly humid, water drops on the ceiling. Just one little, thin blaket is provided so that we were freezing with a thermo shirt, pullover and jacket. Pillow cases and bed sheet don't seem to be changed between different guests. The building is falling apart, the door was broken and could hardly be closed - so that a person is with an easy kick inside the room. Breakfast were two toasts and a fried egg, supplement is not supplied. Dinner options are very limited to a point that you need to wait 1 hour for your order. Stay in Probolinggo or Malang and go by bike or book a tour from there.
The host was very kind and helpful. Location is close to bromo.

NetherlandsGreat base to hike Mount Bromo. The owner is super friendly and always welcomes you with a big smile. Having breakfast included is nice too, so you can just take a shower when you come back from Bromo and meanwhile they will prepare breakfast for you on the terrace. Bed is comfy and they have a hot shower, which is really great as it gets cold up here.

Germanyunfortunately we were welcomed very unfriendly. The guy didn’t even talk to us. We got soaking wet on a motorbike and asked for toilet paper to dry our shoes as the role left in the toilet was empty. He was very annoyed and handed us one role. We asked for a second one, no chance. I understand that the accommodation is cheap and giving out stuff for free might not work for them but he could have at leased talked to us instead of moaning to us through a closed door.

Italyit’s just a suggestion to improve the bathroom quality and the humidity of the house
the owner was so kind with us, he offer us a continental breakfast after coming back the night trekking to bromo and he planned for us a package tour to ijen (all inclusive with also the ticket for the day after to Bali). I suggest to everyone to come there, the place is what you can expect for the price you paid, we had no light in the toilet during evening and just one plug to charge the energy stuff, but you can handle it.

GermanyThere ist no toilet flush (only a bucket of water) and no sink in the bathroom! Brushing your teeth becomes an adventure. Also in the beginning we had no hot water. After fixing this problem we then either had cold or boiling hot water for our shower, nothing in between. The whole room was damp and so were all our things at the end of our stay. In addition, power failures are relatively common in Cemoro Lawang and then you are stuck in this cold, wet room with no WiFi or light. I would definitely recommend staying somewhere else.
The only positive thing was Koko, the B&B staff. He was always super friendly and tried to help wherever he could.

FinlandThe room was very simple. There were two comfy beds as we booked. But the room was extremely cold and damp and there was a hole in our bathroom sealing which made it lot colder. No heating. We got extra blankets when we asked for them. Without those we would had been freazing. There was no trashbin or sink in the room so you couldn't wash your hands for example. Only a shower. It was bit challenging to maintain your personal hygiene there. The room was way overpriced compared to the facilities what we had. But when we complained about these they tried to fix everything what they could and it was nice. If you're not too picky it works for one quick stay to see Mount Bromo.
The staff was excellent and it was easy to communicate. with them. They brought us extra blankets at the middle of the night. We booked 2 nights what was way too much because besides Mount Bromo, there's absolutely nothing else to see. They let us cancel the other night and gave us full refund which was super nice. Breakfast was served to the room and it was two piece of bread with a fried egg. Strong wifi. You can walk to KingKong Hill or Mount Bromo from here.

Francebed linen did not smell very fresh but were not dirty although.
The shower is perfectly hot : a big plus when it’s 10-15 degrees outside when you come back from hiking. The whole apartment is new and clean, in a good shape. Bed comfort is very appreciable too. It is well located and quiet (but we did not have b&b neighbors at that time) : high value for the price (in comparison with hotel in the area), I could come back !
