How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewFANTASTIC! The staff were super friendly and helpful. Great location with lots of small shops and eating opportunities nearby. They call their place a homestay but it has all the conveniences of a hotel.
Thank you for your review, we hope in the future can be better. Nice to meet you and stay healty.

Verified reviewOur room was right next to the kitchen area. So, when someone uses the kitchen we hear them all the time and it's a bit annoying when you want to sleep and in the morning as well, we can hear someone cooking, setting up plates, etc. It was a bit warm in our room, AC wasn't working well.

Verified reviewVery good room and nice swimming pool in a quiet street of the city
I would have hoped for more touristic information: we asked about the Kraton, but the lady didn't know it was closed for renovations, so we went for nothing. We asked about the borobodur temple, but she didn't tell us we needed to make a prior reservation, so again, we couldnt go up. I know it is a B&B, and not a tourist info, but some more help on this side would have been useful.

Verified reviewLike: - Friendly staff - Comfortable bed - Good location - Quiet place - Shops and local bars around - Small pool - Plenty of attractions around the city
Can be improved: - Basic breakfast based on a coffee/tea, white toast, omelette, fresh fruit and other sweets like jams or Nutella. No vegetables or sausage served - this small improvement might make this place perfect. - Cold lights from the corridor might distract your sleep. Please (owners) put some cover on the window above the room door and problem should be sorted.

Verified reviewThis is a wee haven just a short cab ride from the busy and exciting Maliboro St Also possible to walk if you enjoy the exercise. Great wee pool in the courtyard, scrupulously clean, as was the whole place. Friendly staff. Secure gate that was manned. Good food options close by. The room was clean and comfy with great aircon, comfy bed and quality bedding. We will stay again!
We didn't get offered any local breakfast option, just omelet and bread. But breakfast is included and well appreciated.

Verified reviewFriendly staff and good value for money. We loved using the pool after being in the heat all morning!
The room was quite small and there was some light outside that we couldn't switch off at night. No closed shower which means water everywhere near the toilet but I think that is to be expected at basic homestays.

Verified reviewThe staff were friendly and the pool was a must have relief in the heat. Breakfast was very filling with it being homemade every morning and always had vegetables which for some reason we found difficult to find outside the homestay. The room was overall very clean and although the tv didn't work it didn't really matter because there was a tv in the lounge room downstairs that we could use. The location of the homestay is very good. A grab only costs 20 thousand rupiah almost anywhere in the city from the homestay. A suggestion is that you order grab food to the homestay if you want to try alot of foods but don't want to go out in the heat or to multiple places. The best dinners for us were ordered online as you can easily find the most popular restaurants without having to ask anyone. The staff were patient with the amount of different orders which I was very grateful for. Although you can easily go to a well air-conditioned hotel with a fancy restaurant nothing can beat the friendly staff and homely atmosphere of this homestay.
The airconditioning was not quite enough in the room, it was on but barely felt like it did anything and the tv didn't work because the reception was bad in the room.
