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 reviewThis was my second stay of 13 nights at the Lux Guesthouse; last time was in February 2024. Was allocated Room 3001 initially, but the air conditioner wasn't working. Was moved into 3002 which was a better room as it had a double bed and a single. I used the single to lay out my belongings as there is no wardrobe. Large room and good bathroom. Room was serviced about 7 times this visit. Love the access to the swimming pool at the Villa Lux Hotel.
No toilet paper. If room not serviced, no bottled water supplied.

Verified reviewThey had a nice swimming pool 200 meters away. That was clean.
They didn't switch off the light on the balcony, so it was very light in my room although I had the curtains closed. That was the second night.The first night they told me the light will be finished at 11 pm automatically. The Air Con was very loud. So I switched it off, but even taken off the room key for electricity it continued with loud noise. I couldn't stop it and couldn't sleep any more after 2 am the second night. For the 3rd night they gave me another room. Two rooms that they offered I noticed, that the door couldn't be closed.safely. I could open the room door easily with my nail file, although the door was locked. The 3rd room was okay then.

Can't think of anything I didn't like

The bed was covered in ants, went to sleep thinking they had been killed and woke up to them all over the bed! In addition, the AC does not work.

Verified reviewGood location with use of another hotels swimming pool which was lovely
The bed was really uncomfortable. The bathroom ceiling looked like it was due to collapse . The windows had metal guards on the inside with the outside of the window so dusty it had no view at all. A lizard was in the room when we left!

Verified reviewBed was comfortable and the fridge was handy
There were ants and bugs all over the room, floor, bathroom and in the bed, we know that it’s hard to avoid some bugs but it was really really terrible. When we told staff for their sake and our own, they did not seem to care and said they’d spray the room, however there continued to be ants all over when we got back. The AC is also switched off by reception whenever you leave the building, so the room was extremely humid and stuffy whenever we came back. Again, we asked staff to leave it on when we went out for dinner but this was not done. The AC also turned off after about 10mins, which meant we’d wake up constantly too hot. I understand this place is cheaper than most but you don’t expect such an awful stay as a paying guest.

Verified reviewIn Battanbang for a 2 week volunteer project at Bospos. Chose Lux Guesthouse as an alternative to last year's stay. Had a bigger, more spacious room. Clean facilities. Comfortable bed. Air conditioning worked. Didn't use TV or bar fridge, but assumed they worked. Used the pool at the Lux Villa, 50 meters up the street. booked for another 2 weeks next year. Close to market, ATMs, money changers, restaurants.
Room not serviced on 3 days out of 12, so no complimentary water those days, though I did help myself to the cleaners trolley. As others have said, no lift and I had 83 steps to the 4th floor; made me fitter.
