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 reviewA beautiful location in a charming little fishing village , perfect for rest and relaxation. The rooms are simple but clean and have the essentials you need. Every morning the owner made me a great coffee, and in the evenings his wife prepared the best vegetable soup. For exploring the island, it’s ideal to rent a scooter — you can do so right upon arrival at Longset Pier, and if you don’t have too much luggage, you can head straight to the guesthouse. Overall, I truly recommend this place

Verified reviewVery nice and cozy stay in a quiet part of the island. The view from the terrace is breathtaking. The guesthouse is beautifully preserved and decorated, you can feel the heart that’s been put into it. The owners are very helpful and welcoming. We had a great stay - thank you!

Verified reviewThis is on the pricier side in terms of Cambodia and Koh Rong, but it’s so worth it. All about the location here, a fishing village in the north of the Island away from the chaos. It’s stunning. Rooms are also large with great bathrooms and a surprisingly awesome shower. Food is fantastic and I couldn’t tell you a more beautiful place I’d stayed. Stay here.

Verified reviewAmazing hidden part of the island. The view from the guesthouse is spectacular. The life here is chill and slow its easy to spend the whole day just reading relaxing on the terrace. But you can find great activities in the area like kayaking and a few great beaches. The owners are really nice and the food is home made really tasty food.

Verified reviewThe location and chilled out vibe were a real treat. Don't stay here expecting a 5 star experience. Enjoy the laid back vibe and beautiful location, have a swim, hire a scooter and eat the food cooked in-house. Fantastic
The only issue we had were some of the guests were smoking weed and while we are open minded about this, the smell was overpowering and the silly behaviour from said guests was irritating. Go somewhere else to have a smoke please!

Verified reviewSuch a magical and special place, everything in this guesthouse is made with love, the outdoor area, the food, the atmosphere. Hun and his family are lovely and always helpful. I spent more than a week here and every day when I came back from exploring I felt like I had returned home. It's peaceful, the view is breathtaking and I can look at it for hours. Prek Svay is such a small, beautiful village, I would love to stay longer. The secluded beach is a 40 minute walk from here and you can get back by motorcycle cab. The beds are so comfortable, I slept very well. The only thing I suggest is to renew the bunkbeds in the dorm as they are quite loud. Thank you Hun&family for a wonderful time in a special place 🫶🏼 I wish you all the best!

Verified reviewThe place above the beach/sea and the view from there are very beautiful. The food was very good. The owner kind and supportive. The room was big and sufficient.
Be aware that the if there is more wind/higher waves that during high tide some water can come through the wooden floor. The wooden footbridge to the house needs some renewal.

Verified reviewBeautiful location with a great deck area to relax and soak in the views, as well as enjoy the sunrise over the sea. The hosts were very friendly & the food delicious. We enjoyed visiting Lonely Beach during the day, a lovely quiet beach which is within walking distance (around 40 mins).
It is sad to see that the nearby beach areas have so much rubbish washed up on the shoreline - it seems there is less investment in cleaning up of less touristy areas.

Verified reviewThis is the best hostel I've stayed at in Cambodia! The owners are incredibly friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. The area is very peaceful, providing a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. And the food – it's simply the best I've tasted in Cambodia! Highly recommend staying here
