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 reviewThe pool with the view among the palm trees, good food, directly on the beach. Shower outside with the sky view was really nice. The staff was very nice and helpful, we got the full itinerary written for 2 days (which was really good) and they helped to arrange the car and bike.
We didn't have mosquito net in the bungalow, not all rooms have it

Verified reviewMario’s exceeded our expectations at the end of our Sumba holiday. It’s a well developed and designed hotel with rooms all facing the sea - as does the restaurant and the large pool. Only 20 minutes from the airport. Staff are friendly and responsive, although often not proactive. A great stay which we all appreciated

Verified reviewWhat a gem in Sumba. A slice of paradise. All the staff were amazing and particularly Aloysius William who was painstakingly thorough in helping me navigate flights after the airport was shut due to volcanic ash. He kept me updated with news on flights which was so comforting. Dewi was also amazing but then all of the staff were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. The swimming pool is a gem and the beach is pristine and perfect for early morning walk. I wil be back!
Nothing

Verified reviewA beautiful sea view, lovely pool, helpful staff, good restaurant.
It's quite a distance back into town or to go to see the sights further south. Worth it because of the limited choices in the area.

Verified reviewFor a budget accommodation it was really good and I highly recommend it. This place is siutated on the beach with very easy access. The rooms were perfect for what we need, clean and had a beautiful balcony overlooking the sea. The food was great, big portions and the staff were lovely, maybe not that attentive but as soon as you asked something they were on it. They were so smiley and just really great! I would 100% come here again

Verified review-The staff was friendly and helpful. There was no mosquito net in our room but they installed a new one on request. Appreciate it a lot! -Nice big pool overlooking the sea. -Clean rooms.
-Food and drink options were very limited. A lot on the menu was unavailable and especially for vegetarians it’s quite difficult to eat in the restaurant. As there’s nothing else nearby you have no other choice than eating there. -Communication on Booking.com should be better. Reached out several times and no reply. Only when I found a number I could text.

Verified reviewNice place with beatifull view, quiet atmosphere and very helpful staff. We have been licku to be the only guests in the hotel for few days and it made our stay specifically comfortable. Sweeming pool is amazing with the cooling effect on hot Sumba.
Cannot Complain on anything, the quality matches the costs of the hotel.
