How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWonderful “homestyle” inn. Loved the big, spacious room and wood furniture. Loved the little restaurant down the street, where we had delicious -cooked-to-order soup at dinner and traditional Chinese breakfast with fried dough sticks dipped in rice milk.
Everything was wonderful but the sweet gentleman at the hotel spoke no English so if we hadn’t had a guide, logistics wiuld have been difficult.

Verified reviewHad an absolutely delightful experience at Xiao Long River Hotel. The location couldn't be better, just a stone's throw away from the Yu Long River. Opting to stay here, rather than in the town center, was a fantastic choice. It afforded us the ideal chance to immerse ourselves in the breathtaking nature of Yang Shuo and gain insights into the tranquil and laid-back lifestyle of the locals. The rooftop view is nothing short of spectacular, and the rooms are impeccably clean and cozy. Moreover, the staff members are incredibly friendly and helpful. I wholeheartedly recommend this gem to anyone looking to stay in Yang Shuo.

Verified reviewStaff was amazing!!!! Esp Xiao Wei. She provided so much support and was so kind to me and to others (esp the foreigners). Doing a solo trip in a country where you can't communicate is hard, but they were sooo helpful. Def recommend going there

Verified reviewOMG the location was perfection. Why go to Yangshuo and stay in the city centre? You need to be here on the edge of the river and rice fields in the satellite village close to Yangshuo! It’s an absolute fairytale place! You won’t want to leave! Super value too!! Clean confortable.
Wifi a little à weak on the top floor.

Verified reviewEverything! 1. The check in was smooth. I was lost, the owner speaks English. She got the assistant to come find me in the main road and took me back to the place. 2. The place is modern and clean. Has the most stunning view. Very close to the fields. 3. Big room for super cheap. Best value for money I've gotten for a room in China. 4. You can rent a scooter around the corner.
Nothing. Everything was nice.
