Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

IndiaThis stay is nestled in a quiet neighborhood right off the main road. Don't follow maps, instead take the turn which has the name of the homestay written on the wall. Ibaiada Aunty is an excellent host and it shows in the way the rooms are kept. Fresh sheets, blankets, a spacious bathroom, hot shower with the right pressure and temperature and all these only come second to the cleanliness which is the first thing you notice. The bed is comfortable enough, for me personally.. it's not super hard but if you're expecting to sink into it, you won't. If you're travelling by yourself and getting to Police bazaar is a concern, you can just stay here and use bike taxis via Rapido. You also get good wifi, a smart TV, towel, toilet paper and soap all properly placed. Also, bedside chargers and lights. Honestly, you don't need to think twice before booking this, go for it! I decided to stay here for 2 more days when I usually shift between accommodations if I'm in the same city.

Everything was good. The owner was very nice and friendly. She brought us breakfast to our room when we wanted. She was cooperative and tells you things about locals and helps you find local stuff from shillong. Her rooms are very neat and clean and we felt very comfortable. I don't have anything bad to say about the stay.

IndiaThe location, a lil interior with poor access road, it's a steep climb at places with luggage it was difficult. The beds were ruffled- thought someone stayed and it was not cleaned, Out of the twin bed one of the bedsheets were torn. There was a big pillar in the middle of the bathroom obstructing and taking space. Door locks are hard to close.
The owner - Aunty was very nice, friendly and Accomodative. Bathroom fittings are from Jaguar and clean.
