Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

New ZealandExcellent location in Leh - walkable to everything you need in town. Very friendly and helpful family running the guesthouse, we felt right at home. Lovely garden with a beautiful dog friend to hang out with whilst acclimatising. We ended up booking to stay when we returned to Leh we liked it that much!

United States-Our first stay was perfect/ The only issue with our second stay was we were swarmed by insects at night. Well, technically the whole building was. I promise it doesn't happen and it is extremely rare but we just happen to be there the same night the weather/temperature was drastically changing causing the "night?" insects to flood into warmer areas (inside buildings). Even when we had the windows closed, they were somehow getting in. They were completely harmless but it was hard to sleep knowing there were 100 small insects above you. The owner did make an effort at night to help get rid of them. That was very very nice of her and she felt bad for the guests because of it. It didn't really bother me but it drove my partner crazy. -I'm not giving a low review even with the issue mainly because I know most if not 99% of you all will not experience this. The owner's kindness and concern told me she really cared and was upset by our discomfort. That really tells you how much someone cares about your stay.
-We stayed here again for the second time after returning from Nubra valley. Everything I would say was the same as the last review. The owner was very kind, place was nice and clean, beautiful garden.

United States-If you leave the window open for too long, alot of insects fly in. But it you just try to swat them, they fly back out of the room. -The wifi wasn't too strong in some of the rooms, so it's kind of a gamble of which wifi strong room you will get. But in the living room, wifi is very strong. No issues there and the garden.
-The owner was very kind and makes an effort to help out as much as she can. If she is not around, she usually answers by Whatsapp, so make sure you have a working data plan if you're in the city or have access to wifi. If you're missing any items like toilet paper or towel, just whatsapp her and she will bring it to you. -She always have hot water and tea in the living room for the guests. -The garden area outside is very very beautiful. Sometimes you will encounter guests to socialize with there. -Location is one of the best for the price. You are so close to the center. Normally I get annoyed by long walks to city centers but this location was perfect and was easy to access restaurants and shops -There is a tourist agency next door owned by a family member/friend of the owner. He is super kind and really works with you on the best price for planning trips. We got one of the best rates in Leh for a two day trip to nubra valley and a day trip of monastries. -The room was nice and cozy! She has extra thick blankets just in case.

ItalyWe had an amazing stay at Saiman. The guest house has a lovely and peaceful garden, perfect for chilling out during the first days of acclimatization. The room was spacious, very clean and silent during the night, even if is very very close to the city center and the street. Perfect location, close to cafè, restaurant and travel agencies. The wifi worked very well and there was hot water running at every hour. During our long trekking we could leave our luggage in a storage room, this was very very convenient.

AustraliaThe hot water for the shower can take a little while to come and the wi-fi in the room was weak at times but there was a common room on the ground floor where it was fine
The owner was very helpful and kind. The location is great being a very short walk to the centre of Leh and the old town. The guest house is comfortable and has a pleasant quiet garden in which to relax.

I arrived at 7 oclock in the night from tso-moriri long tour, but she just say “you didn’t answer my message, so I borrowed another people “ How can I answer from tsomoriri ?? They have no wifi!! According to another review, she did same things in past many times. This hotel should stop using booking.com. Because she changes guests reservation . Booking has No meaning. I have never such a terrible experience. Suck guesthouse!!!
