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 reviewNothing!
I arrived at 5 pm to find that my room was not ready. The clerk tried to switch me to another hotel but I refused to change. After 30 minutes I was finally given a room key. However, when I walked out of the elevator on my floor I noticed garbage piled up in the corner next to my room. I looked on several other floors and it was the same, there was garbage left all over the hotel. I went back to the front desk and told them what I had seen and for some reason they were not surprised nor did they seem to think they needed to do anything about it. I have stayed in this same hotel many times in the past and things were never like this before. It used to be a nice place.....good location, decent price and clean. Very sad to see how bad it is now..........

Verified reviewThe hotel is quite well located in downtown Rangoon, the staff was nice, the room had spiderwebs in the ceiling and nearby the toilet (I do not think that it is difficult to get rid of them)... Breakfast was fulfilling...
There may need a deep cleaning...

Verified reviewThe staff were friendly and helpful from the time of arrival through to departure which helps to make an hotel stay
Though good value for money the hotel is definitely in need of refurbishment. Also the free WiFi needs to be be reliable.

Verified reviewPros: - quite ok price for the area. - location is in the heart of chinatown. 3 streets away of the popular 19th street with many bars and restaurants. - friendly but a bit insecure staff as they don’t speak a lot of english. - white, clean sheets. - window could be opened. - nice views over town. - rooftop restaurant with view on shwedagon pagoda. - elevator. - complimentary toothbrush, shower gel, shampoo, tissues, water, etc… - tv, a/c, electricity plugs on each bed side. - no carpet! - hot water with ok pressure. - shops and restaurants outside. - taxi airport to the hotel was 10$ (get it from the main road) - very silent (curfew 00:00-04:00) - wifi was working ok.
Cons: - old bathtub with rusty leaking shower. - water ran all over the floor. - shower curtain with stains of rust & fungus. - one tile missing on the bathtub tiling. - old, shabby toilet seat. - light switch was defect (constantly on!) so i needed to use the main fuse to switch everything off at night. - you need to walk up one level to the first floor for the elevator. in general i was very happy to stay there. they were friendly and tried to help with the light issue. besides it was close to 19th street and sule pagoda.
