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.).

AustraliaThe buffet breakfast is excellent; if you're lucky, you'll get the special coffee pouring performance. I was pleased to have a small room with working air conditioner, a wardrobe with hanging space and a tv with Netflix!! The staff were lovely and friendly, carrying my suitcase upstairs for me. The location is near many restaurants.

GermanyRoom was quite basic, especially the bathroom, but overall okay and outweighed by the friendly and professional attention by its staff and the excellent food.
The food is really excellent and the staff is doing a great job! Free laundry service is a nice extra. The overall concept of a/hospitality training center and hotel with first class restaurant deserves support! Would always return when in Dili!

United StatesBefore arriving in Timor-Leste I had booked a cheap hostel, but changed my mind since I felt I needed something more comfortable. Sunset Inn was perfect and exactly what I needed. They recommended a mototaxi driver who took me around Dili for the day and there were a few good restaurants nearby. Overall a good stay!

AustraliaHand held shower would not stay in holder. And when water on due to pressure kept wanting to spray towards the door. Some nights/early morning water would bubble and rise from bathroom sink. Occasionally a smell too. Must be linked to the plumbing lines water is all on
Location very good with lots of restaurants around, and number 02 microlet going past. Staff were very helpful, both in terms of responses prior to my stay and during my stay. The food was great. The breakfast had a good variety, lunches and dinners popular here so may need to book. Waiters very good. the cafe at the front also belongs to them. Good for coffee and snacks, otherwise its mainly pizza and Bintang served there. Room service very good even if not needed. They tried to change soap, shampoo, conditioner daily until i advised not needed for myself. 2 Water bottles given daily. Laundry service was free and quick

United StatesA very nice bonus they pick you up at the airport for free. To take you to the airport they charge $10 for the vehicle, very reasonable. The two of us scheduled a ride and there was another guest going at the same time who paid at the front desk (and we were going to give him something for our share). When we arrived at the airport the driver insisted the two of us also pay $10, even though the other guy showed proof of payment, so they got paid twice for one ride.
Stayed here three nights in total (two at the start of the trip and one at the end) and very pleased with everything. Great staff, very friendly. The room was clean, the A/C and wifi worked fine. Breakfast was good, the best part being the pour-over coffee. We didn't have dinner at the restaurant as planned but it seemed busy every night and must be good. There's not a lot of choices in Dili and while it's a little expensive for what you get I'll stay here next time (already planning a return to this interesting country).

AustraliaGood location close to the waterfront, very clean rooms and serviced daily if you wish. Laundry and breakfast are included. You should definitely have dinner in their restaurant; the food is amazing quality! A 3 course meal for two people cost us about 520,000 Rp. There is a coffee next door that serves great coffee and cakes. This is a training hotel, and their professionalism is excellent.
