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 reviewThe check in process was so easy and quick, which I really appreciated as we had just gotten off a long, uncomfortable bus ride. The room was really clean and aesthetic. But most of all, the staff are amazing. They allowed us to leave our bags in the reception all day long as we had a tour during the day. They also let us take a shower and get changed after we returned as we were soaking wet due to the rain, before our sleeper bus ride. They also gave us free water bottles afterwards, they are the best! Highly recommend this hotel!

Verified reviewUpon arrival we were greeted by the friendly staff and told some great information about the local area. The room was very spacious and the bed was comfortable. We only stayed one night but enjoyed having a beer on our balcony and then going down to the fantastic pool area. The breakfast in the morning was also excellent.
Nothing. We only stayed one night but it was perfect.

Verified reviewVery clean and beautiful. Exactly like the pictures. We hired bicycles and motorbike and they did money exchange and gave recommendations for dinner. Just down the road from the main strip. We’re disappointed we didn’t book here for longer! Highly recommend 😊

Verified reviewCosy place. Especially in the evening.
Family bungalow is not that big. No shower curtain, so when you take a shower, the total bathroom, toilet everything is soaked wet. They use a lot of chemicals in the (not so big) swimmingpool. Person at reception (young man) communicates a bit strange and I heard this from more people who were staying at this hotel.

Verified reviewCute bungalow room. Good air con. Breakfast was good. Location fine. Peaceful if you are after quiet time.
Pillow was tiny and didn’t get a response when I asked for another. Pool was quite small. Didn’t have a bar if we wanted a drink although I did see there was alcohol available on their room service menu.

Verified reviewWe LOVED our stay here. What a gem of a place. Comfortable beds, lovely breakfast, nice pool and the MOST exceptional host - Kevin. He was Mr Customer Services. From transport (taxi/bike/train), to trips (Bich Dong temple and Hoa Lu) and everything in between he was tremendous.
Nothing!
