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.).

SingaporeRoom was dusty and not properly cleaned; no hand soap provided. Loud street noise and mosque call at 5:45am disturbed sleep. Shower bar was broken on arrival; only fixed after insisting due to baby’s safety. No room upgrade offered despite maintenance issues and low occupancy. Overall, expected better for the price paid
Very good location, spacious room, charming design, comfortable bed.

MalaysiaAll were good for our stay. If we were still to pick up on a "fault", it's only the TV channels being quite limited and the signals were not very good.
The hotel location is excellent, with direct access to the Melaka River (locked after 10pm), and within a 10-minute walk to the Dutch Square (Studthuys, clock tower etc.), St. Paul's Hill and Jonker Walk. Room booked was on the 1st floor facing the street (with operatable timber louvre windows!). Room is spacious, well laid out, well upkept and very clean. Despite fronting the street, sound-proofing appeared to be good and the room was quiet. The hotel provides limited (up to five cars) complimentary parking lots in a side lane just opposite the hotel. Breakfast provided was simple, rather limited in choice, but was considered very nice, perhaps in part due to the very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel interior offers very nice, serene spaces with many interesting old items/artifacts. This is a very good hotel to stay in, away from busy traffic yet very close to most key heritage attractions in Bandar Hilir Melaka. Highly recommended.

United KingdomThe place is quite old so not everything is perfect, the carpet could do with a deep clean and there are plenty of scuffs and stains on the furniture. I would describe it as a bit shabby chic and we loved it
Fantastic location in a historic building with bags of character. Our room was large and comfortable with a good shower and very clean

Singapore- i thought the simple breakfast can be improved. But on hindsight, it allowed us to explore other breakfast options elsewhere. I suggest to eat a little at the hotel before heading out for 2nd round - the toilet ventilation when it blows kind of smells. But it is still acceptable.
- Security (only access via room card) - welcoming entrance - free parking (only 5 spaces) - location at a less crowded area but with many nice food within walking distance. As you turn right at the nearest junction, you’ll walk right into Jonker St where Daily Fix cafe and Eureka popcorn is. - by the river allowing you to explore the shops by the river - air conditioning even in the public areas - the Executive Suite was huge for that area. We really enjoyed the space we had chilling on the sofa. - the hotel is small, therefore quiet most of the time - staff are pretty friendly
