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 reviewOn the positive side, the hotel is clean and well-maintained, the pool is very pleasant, and the overall property feels upscale and tidy.
We stayed here as a family with two children. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing due to very poor customer service and misleading practices. Before arriving, I requested an extra mattress for one child — something we always arrange at other hotels for around 100–150k IDR per night. Here, they demanded 250k/night (more than one-third of the room price!), and after long negotiations at check-in, they reluctantly agreed to lower it slightly to 180k. Still unreasonably high. The room itself was small, the air conditioning did not work properly, and the TV apps (like YouTube) were not accessible, which was frustrating for the kids. The lack of flexibility, the unhelpful attitude, and the sense that they try to take advantage of guests left a very bad impression. I cannot recommend this hotel given how poorly they treat their customers.

Verified reviewOne of the female staff members working in the restaurant/breakfast was very kind and helpful.
For context, we have been travelling across SE Asia for 4 months now, staying in hotels, hostels, homestays etc ranging from no stars up to 5-star. Arriving at Prima In we were disgusted at the mould growing up the walls, the peeling wallpaper, the bed sheets covered in stains. There was a strong damp smell and just general dirt and stains everywhere. Whilst we moved rooms, the second one wasn’t much better but we were too tired to move again. The bed was hard and we were only given 1 pillow each. When I asked for another pillow, they tried to charge me 30,000 per night. The walls are paper thin so you can hear everything. Your neighbours, down the corridor, floors above and below, outside etc. We were woken at 5 every morning by the call to prayer, then by kids in the pool at 6am (we were on floor 5). The room facilities were poor. The plug sockets and light switches were coming away at the wall. We had a broken lamp that we reported that was not replaced. No soap is provided in the bathroom and we had to ask for When we ate in the restaurant for dinner one night, the chicken I ate was not properly cooked and made me unwell. Location wise, you are close to Malioboro street, but not too close that you can hear it through the night. There are a lack of restaurants immediately nearby - you have to walk to Malioboro for this. You are also not close enough to walk to the palaces, we’d recommend staying further that way and absolutely avoiding this hotel.
