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):
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.
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.).

One of my favorite spots I stayed in while in Asia! The staff are sooo nice and welcoming. Everything was very clean and simple from check-in to check-out. It felt like home from the very start. They also offer free bicycles which is perfect for riding around Malacca!

Sri LankaThe washroom was a little tiny.
The place was very cozzy and adorable. Everything was clean, and there was coffee, tea and a few other things to eat on the house. The washing machine could be used by paying a small amount and the clothes can be dried outside. The room, the bed, towels and the washroom; everything was very clean. The staff was really nice and welcoming, and did not disturb me throughout the stay, unless I needed. A very little walk to jonker walk, and every main attraction area in Melaka. I definitely enjoyed staying at this lovely place. Totally recommend it.

BulgariaMaybe they should maintain the bicycles a bit better, I think most of them had flat tyres. Although, you do not really need a bicycle in Melaka unless you plan on going to the Floating Mosque.
I have known the TLB for quite some time now, this is a great hostel in Melaka, located super close to Jonker street, yet far away from all the noise, in an area full of delicious restaurants, 24/4 laundromat, mini-markets, morning market and walking distance to all the major sights in the historical center of Melaka. The crew is super friendly and helpful - you can meet the owner Sharom and some volunteers (Greetings to Lutz, Alessya and Vera), who will assist you with everything you need, the facilities are clean and well maintained, Wi-Fi is good. Price-to-quality ratio here is great and every time I visit Melaka I spend some time here! It feels like a home away from home!

AustriaReally loved this hostel! It‘s very small and has a homey vibe to it, not many people in there, but very nice ones. The owner and volunteers are super friendly and ready to help if you need it. Not directly in the center so it‘s calm, but only 5-1 min walk away to get there. They have books, a cute common area (inside and outside) and bikes for free. The kitchen has a lot to offer as well (free tea, water, dishes, fridge). Also cute cats running around outside. Also good and really cheap restaurants near the hostel! Not many people but I really enjoyed my stay there!
