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 reviewRoom was clean. Access to the pool was easy. Good Internet access and the bathroom was clean with everything I needed.
They let me buy the breakfast add-on when they did not have the kitchen open during The offseason. The shower did not drain very well and occasionally flooded the bathroom.

Verified reviewEverything is very good, location close to rent a motorbike, restaurants, and 7/11 :). very clean and the staff very helpful.
The price for renting a motorbike from them is astronomical ( 1000 bht per day - other places 250 bht per day ) The Internet has a poor range and is slow.

Verified reviewThere was a massive safety issue at the property. On arrival there was no one to check us in which was fine, but then we realised the main door was open to anyone and there was access to all sliding doors! There was no locks on any of the door so we couldn’t lock our lock at all! The wrong address was stated on booking.com! Very weird and eerie vibe. Me and my children didn’t stay there and left at 1 in the morning so scared

Verified reviewNothing.
Permanent loud construction work going on. Reception speaks zero English. Zero response on complaints. Pool is dirty every morning, cleaning started after 3 requests. Rubbish is laying around everywhere. Guests swimming at 3 in the night an making permanent noise. No restaurant. No breakfast. The fitness room is a dirty ugly Desaster with bird shit on the defekt 50 year old two facilities. They rate themself 4 stars but nothing of the facilities is exists. Management is a poor desaster, no answers on requests. I left after 2 of 5 days and will never go back. Not possible to relax one single minute.
Dear Alex, We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your stay. We have addressed the noise issue and completed the renovation of all shower rooms in our accommodations. Regarding the insects in the pool, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention and have informed our team to ensure thorough cleaning. While we do clean the pool daily between 8 and 9 am, being in a tropical location, especially during the rainy season, can sometimes attract insects to the pool, particularly at night due to the lights. However, our shower renovations are now finished, and we sincerely hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with a much-improved experience. We would be pleased to offer you a special discount on your next stay as a gesture of goodwill. Concerning the staff language skills, we are providing our team members with English learning materials to support their development. We are hopeful that their English proficiency will improve. Best regards, Nan

Verified reviewLocation is good. Pool is nice. Good for big groups.
Staff super rude, never experienced that in Thailand before. Breakfast is pretty bad - and the ladies seem annoyed when you even go there to get it. I had roaches in my room and was able to change to a different room that also wasn’t clean though. Stains on bedsheets and pillows. The pool turns your white bathing suits yellow- no clue what’s in there. And let’s not even talk about the hotel “gym”, literally the only machine that they have is broken lol. Overall, the hotel is way too expensive for what you get.

Verified reviewBeautiful rooms. Pool was fantastic. The fact that every room has access to the pool is a huge bonus. Very welcoming staff. Close to gyms and great restaurants. Only 6 mins from Rawai Beach.
Breakfast was very average, but to be fair, breakfast is not really a Thai strong point, so it's good that they even offer it. My only dislike was the single beds. They seem to all be twin share rooms with 2 single beds. I am 6 foot and my feet were hanging off the end. I did push the beds together, which helped a little.
