Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

MalaysiaMy assigned room 7 was no key even I can open the key lock box. Not sure whether it rent to someone or what. Then landlord assigned room 5 to me, but air con was not work. Contact landlord to arrange another room. But be advised to made video and wait for more than an hour. Then assigned room 3 to me with air cond, but very strong smoking smell full of the room. So, I only can choose no air cond or smokey smell room. I stayed for 4 nights at the smokey smell room and unable to change, I need to suffer 4 night there. Also, the bathroom is terrible dirty. Even the toilet cover was broken. See picture.

MalaysiaThe AC wasn’t working, and there was no one around to assist. There was no mirror to get ready, and the washroom was a complete mess — no Muslim shower, and the bath shower was barely sprinkling, as if it were broken. Horrible experience....

MalaysiaThis place is horrible. The pictures in the website do not match the actual room. I booked for 6 nights, but only could stay for 1 night because it was terrible experience. When I checked in, there was no light in the "room" ( actually you can call this closet or a jail cell), so I had to wait until night so they finally fixed it. The next morning it was raining outside and it was leaking from the walls and made my bed wet. I had to find another place for myself and left this horrible place. They never refunded for the remaining 5 nights. I saw another guest who was also complaining that he almost got electrical shock from one of the outlets.

MalaysiaSunny Point Hostel in Penang is a fantastic find! With its prime location, exploring Georgetown’s heritage streets and famous street food was effortless. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-kept, providing a relaxing stay. The self-check-in process was smooth, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Whether traveling solo or with friends, this hostel offers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and a welcoming vibe. I had an amazing experience and will definitely be back!

MalaysiaThe room is not clean.. got kids drowning at the wall.. some one already lay down on the bed before I checked in.. maid have to tidy up the bed in front of me.. first impression when I enter the house it looks like a store. The main gate is also a problem. One side closes one side opens. Staircase no light. Bathrooms are small and also have to be shared with other rooms. Water pressure is too low. No TV and no wifi. Compared with other properties the same price but more comfortable and also have tv and wifi. Totally not meet my expectations. So sad. Why still got a hostel like this.

MalaysiaI'd hate to be honest, but for a price of about RM200++ for one night at this place seems very overpriced compared to what is provided there. Don't be fooled by the pictures shown. They do seem like a nice place, but I'm quite surprised when I first came to this place. The entrance doesn't seem welcoming at all. Cleanliness needs to be improved a lot. The flooring is badly water damaged. I booked the room for 4 adults and 1 child but they only provide us 1 queen bed and 1 single mattress (without bed). The door lock of the room I booked doesn't seem secure enough which is quite worrying. Worst thing of all is, they provide glasses with an alcoholic drink brand logo on it, and I'm a Muslim. Hopefully the owner of this place will improve in the future.
The room is spacious. The staff is quite friendly. The water heater is working fine. There's an iron for ironing clothes provided. The facilities provided is fairly sufficient. I'm not sure what else that's good to describe this place. I guess that's all?

MalaysiaThe place was a wreck. It looks like they don't have a manager at all. The room itself was OK and large. However, I was afraid to stay there since the lock on the room had been broken into numerous times. ie the door was damaged due to the breakin's. I had suitcases that I had wanted to leave in the room while I was gone, and I could not trust doing so.
The one good thing was that the residents there were nice.
