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 reviewWe enjoyed being part of a piece of kerala's history and how tastefully the erstwhile godown has been renovated into a cozy haven. Delicious homemade appams were the icing on the cake and Paul was very accommodative of our newborn baby.
Wish we would do something about the mosquito situation, but being kerala, I know there isn't much we can do.

Verified reviewWe absolutely adored our stay here! The property exceeded our expectations, perfectly capturing the serene atmosphere depicted in the pictures. My wife and I felt right at home in this quaint retreat. Paul, our exceptional host, was incredibly responsive and ensured our every need was met. He even arranged a breathtaking sunrise kayaking experience through the backwaters and shared valuable recommendations for local activities and dining. The breakfasts were delicious on both days, and the coffee was remarkably better than what we found at nearby cafes.

Verified reviewPaul created a charming space in an old structure very well located next the beach and the canals. Our host is very gracious, helpful and accommodating. We are so pleased to have stayed there two nights. Breakfasts are home cooked from a local repertoire.

Verified reviewPaul’s property is so lovely. The room has been beautifully designed and the whole property is clean, cool and super comfortable. Paul is very knowledgeable and gave us good tips for the local area and he also provided us with a delicious complimentary breakfast which was the best we’ve had so far in Kerala.
The property is a little way out from the centre of town and you would need to take a rickshaw to get around. Worth getting the number of a good driver who will come back and get you when you need.

Verified reviewAbsolutely beautiful spice warehouse turned b&b. Paul keeps the place impeccable. Tucked away on a back road but not too far from lighthouse and the highly recommended Chai Walah, Paul organised out sunrise boat ride as well. A wonderful stay.

Verified reviewThe place is totally clean, 3 spacious rooms and the area is near all sights reachable by foot and still in a calm area with a lovely backyard where we relaxed. It's a wonderful style of the building, which Paul and his family gave to the old building which is remarkable. Lovely Paul, the Manager makes this place to the warmest welcome we had so far in India. He helped us with everything we asked for, gave us recommendations for restaurants, tours, shops etc and hosted us with delicious Indian breakfast. He was always around when we needed him and makes the place best in town.
Absolutely nothing.

Verified reviewThe earthy look of the place and calm vibe around the house was just the perfect place anyone would want. There was a singing bowl and other calming instruments around the property that keep you engaged. The rooms were spotless and were well maintained. The host Paul was a very sweet person, Paul also offered us some traditional home cooked breakfast.

Verified reviewI recently had the pleasure of staying at "Boketto stay and spaces," and it ticked all the boxes for an unforgettable retreat. The host, Paul, provided warm hospitality that made me feel right at home, and the attentive service enhanced my entire stay. The property itself was immaculately maintained, and it was evident that the staff takes great pride in ensuring everything is in top-notch condition. What truly stood out was the serene and peaceful atmosphere. Nestled away from the noise of the city, the stay provided a tranquil escape. I enjoyed moments of pure relaxation and experienced a restful night's sleep without any disruptions. If you're seeking a delightful getaway with a fantastic host, look no further. I highly recommend "Boketto stay and spaces" for a memorable and rejuvenating experience.
