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 reviewPractical location and accessibility, near main road which is good for transfer and transportation. Very uncomplicated to make early check in Clean.
Unlike in other homestays, it's not a place where travellers meet, exchange information, relax and drink a coffee together.its unpersonal , the room not cosy, very basic, Indonesian bathroom without a sink. It was very noisy during the night and the light in the bathroom automatically goes on when a gecko passes by I think, so constantly one-off.

Verified reviewToraja Dannari Homestay provides all the basics you need for a comfortable stay in Rantepao. The location is walking distance from the Rantepao town, which makes it very easy to find food options and explore the town on foot. The room was clean and there is hot water. It takes a while for the water to heat up initially though after you switch on the geezer. So, make sure to turn on the hot water well before you use the shower. There is no sink in the bathroom, which can make non-shower activities like brushing one’s teeth a bit tricky. There is a small table, a chair, a clothes rack and a fan in the room. When I arrived in the evening, there was no one at the reception / in the house, although I had informed them of my arrival time. Additionally, there was no towel or toilet paper in the room, and I had to wait a while to find someone to ask for such things. The wifi password was also not provided anywhere. So, again, I had to wait a while until I could find someone who works there to get the password. I also though breakfast was included in the reservation, but it turned out that you have to pay for breakfast separately. So, make sure to double-check about the breakfast before you make the reservation. It can get noisy depending on your neighbors as the walls are thin. It can also get very noisy every morning around 4.30-5 am when the church uses loudspeakers for hymns / sermons. Around the same time, the cocks in the entire neighborhood start crowing very loudly, and they continue for at least a couple of hours once they start. I have experienced this in other parts of Indonesia as well. So, I don’t think Toraja Dannari Homestay can do anything about it. Just plan accordingly and go to sleep early. Loraine Tin was very helpful during my stay.

Verified reviewWe've stayed in so many homestays and hostel in Ranterpao and this is the best one. The owner is very friendly and helpful. The room is very clean, large and comfortable. Clean bathroom with very hot shower (very rare in Rantepao). Nice kitchen with free banana and water. The location is perfect. Can't recommend this place enough.
