Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

The acomodation is located a few minutes from the main road. It is in a quiet location, so there is no much noise or people walking by, but it is fast and easy to get to the shops and restaurants. In front there is a scooter rental facility, that is very useful to explore the Hills! The room was big and comfortable, with a comfy bed, a table with chair. The toilets and showers are outside, but are clean and come with soap and shampoo. There is a kitchen with a fridge where to keep personal food. The host is a lovely person, such a great guy! He offers coffe and tea all the day, and a simple breakfast with toasted bread, jam and butter. Amazing experience!

MalaysiaI enjoyed everything about my stay here. It was simple, relaxing, and exactly what I needed. Norman is an exceptional host—friendly, helpful, and thorough in explaining everything. It honestly felt like catching up with an old friend. I’ll definitely be coming back for a longer stay soon. Absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for an amazing stay around here!

United KingdomIf you like it to be quiet in the evenings it’s worth noting that the hostel bar opposite play music until 12 each night, although this isn’t a problem as even here Norman has thought of his guests and makes you aware on check in and provides ear plugs.
Brilliant budget accommodation in a great location, the whole place is spotless, the beds are comfortable, there are plenty of bathrooms and showers for guests to use and complimentary breakfast is provided. The best thing about this guest house is the host Norman, he is fantastic! He goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and comfortable, has fantastic recommendations for hikes and things to do in the area and is just a genuinely lovely guy. We were so impressed after our first night that we extended our stay.

FranceThe rustic My friend and I booked this accommodation for several reasons: location, price and reviews. Norman is a lovely character, smiling, helpful and very generous. It's nice to have owners who love what they do! A great meeting! As for the location, it's perfect. Right in the center of town, a 10-minute walk from the bus station, but on a quiet side street that runs uphill. You can hear the bar next door (a very nice one, by the way) until midnight, then it gets quieter. Finally, what can I say about the price? Perfect for budget travelers! Thanks for a great stay Norman, see you next time !

NetherlandsDuring the whole period of our stay the WiFi was not working. First the owner told us it would be fixed maybe with a day, but ended up having no WiFi during our stay.
It was close to one of the famous walking tracks in the Cameron Highlands. The owner is friendly. The house is clean.

Host is fantastic, gave us a great tour of the place and was super friendly throughout our stay. The place is extremely well kept. Very clean in all areas and a great outside wash area for muddy boots that we took advantage of. Breakfast and drinks were great. The outside table area is really nice and great to socialise with other guests. Room was large and bed was comfy.

United KingdomIt's worth noting that you have to go outside to use the toilet/shower. This wasn't a problem for us, but some guests might not like this.
Perfect Cameron Highlands base, easy access to everything. Norman is the perfect host, very calm and helpful. We wish we could have stayed longer but already had our next accommodation booked. Great value and had everything we needed.

The vibe is nice and chill, we really felt good and actually extended by one day We also appreciated all the activities he recommended, and the fact that there's some toast and coffee available in the morning for free

United KingdomThis is a basic guesthouse so based on our awareness of that this accomodation was good. However if you aren't expecting the outdoor shared bathrooms or basic wooden house living then this wouldn't be the place for you. Electricity went out a few times which was inconvenient if you needed a shower, Norman would put up emergency lighting so he did everything in his means to compensate. A little noisy at night from local dogs (they were all very friendly cause 0 problems but there's a lot of them in Tanah Rata so they do bark in the early hours). Norman provides earplugs for noises like this.
Comfortable bed, middle of Tanah Rata so good for eating in the evenings, Norman the host was a very kind and genuine man looking after his guests, shared bathrooms kept clean and stocked with toilet paper, shampoo and soap. Free tea and coffee at disposal all day as well as toast and cereal in the morning. Hairdryers available on request. An ideal base for backpackers who are out exploring all day and don't mind basic accomodation.
