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...).

Just a heads up for those travelling with friends, theres around an inch of gap on the bathroom door that surprised us initially. Breakfast spread was descent. Maybe can also include cereals with milk and some pastries.

Maybe can make a partition at the pool area because it is just right near to the function hall. The room also has no iron provided. The bath tub also looks funny in the middle of the room instead innthe bathroom. The bathroom door also has no lock.
It has a small mini swimming pool which is the main point I choose to stay here for my kids leisure time. Plus there's no other guests were swimming there during that time makes them felt comfortable and exclusively for them. Parking area was spacious.

Breakfast needs to be improved. Please serve better coffee. Or consider having someone available at the kopilab store.
Breakfast spread could be more varied. There was no dimsum available when I went for breakfast despite a dimsum station having been setup

1. I was given a room with a connecting door, and we can easily hear the guest from other side of the room, even when they are farting 🤮. VERY POOR sound proofing!! 2. Breakfast was meh, most of the menu was a bit on the salty side.
Cleanliness. Contactless check in. Location. Lots of parking.

It was strange that the breakfast, lunch and dinner restaurant didn’t serve alcohol but that it could be ordered through room service. While I understand much of the hotels customers are Muslim this seems strange, especially if you want to attract the western clientele. It’s not going to happen with this hotel policy.
Clean, comfortable bed if small. Quiet. Reasonable breakfast. Some staff members were great, others were quiet and not used to communicating in English. Although I understand most customers are Malaysian and not foreigners whereas the big chain hotels are used to having these tourists.

The online Bluetooth key system is frustrating. It requires you to have a phone and access to internet to start with. You are also expected to have completed all the check in information, i mean everything, before you arrive. While travelling with no data this really isn't possible. Rooms at one end of the hall have the aircon intake and vent outside and are extremely noisy. Had to ask to be moved as the noise was horrible. Reception staff member was good and patient.

The restaurant food and room service which was not part of the hotel but operating as a partner. Cold half boiled eggs were served for breakfast and room service was non-existent although a room service menu from the restaurant was made available in the room.
Room was clean and bed was cozy. The front office staff were courteous and helpful. The GM was apologetic for the restaurant fault but he has no control over the restaurant. I felt sorry for the GM. Good man and was very patient with my complaint.
