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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

NetherlandsAll was good.
This was by far the best accommodation we had in Bali. Sideman is a wonderful area and to our opinion, way better compared to Ubud. We had a room with own pool which was great to relax. But the thing that made our stay a 10 were the details for attention by the staff. They were all very friendly and made sure all our questions were answered with a smile. The rooms were cleaned very well on a daily basis and the whole resort including the rice field look very very nice. The food from the restaurant could be ordered from the room and was very tasty every time. We would definitely recommend this place and would come back any time.

United KingdomThe shower placement was right next to the toilet leading it to be wet on the floor when we went to the toilet and the bedding had stains which I’m assuming were there for good - should maybe invest in new sheets however we didn’t mention it to staff and I’m sure they would have changed them had we asked (we had sleeping bag liners so didn’t see much reason to request a change)
The staff were all lovely and very helpful when we asked about booking a ferry the next day

FranceOnly a few things which could be better: please change the kettle, which can be dangerous when you carry it since you can burn yourself. Juices for breakfast are not as good as they could be, even though breakfast is pretty good.
Quiet place: Sidemen is a very peaceful village and this hotel is probably one of the best in the area. Nice restaurants nearby. Did not try the restaurant of the hotel since it was closed for maintenance. View is wonderful (rice fields,mountains & forest), nice and big enough pool. You can park your car or bike easily, if needed.

AustraliaInitially when we realized our top floor room didn't have an Aircon we were nearly ready to leave, However the staff were super accommodating and gave us extra fans. When we spoke to others who were staying we were assured that due to location we would not require air con and there were zero Mozzies.
Beautiful off the beaten track village that we stumbled across accidentally. Booked 2 separate rooms on top of on another which was convenient. Views of the rice fields were next level and extremely contrasting. Pool was just below us which was lovely all day round at this time of year. Nice bar near the pool for cold beer and refreshments. Great place to hire scooters as the traffic is minimal and there is so much to explore.

SwedenWi-Fi is very bad (luckily we went to relax so we didn’t really need it, but if you have to do something important online, it’s not trustworthy), many bugs in the room (again, for us not a big deal, but if you are sensitive, beware), no AC (which they state openly and they gave us an extra fan when I asked for it).
Location is amazing, breakfast very good, restaurant also very good and not too expensive. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Pool is great. Stunning view.

New ZealandNothing. Everything was perfect.
The location and views show you the real Bali. Located down a street with many other accomodations, there are plenty of beautiful warungs (my favourite is Lihat Sawah) within a 5 min walk. The staff are incredibly gentle, my room was authentically Bali and you really feel at peace here. I didn’t have any issues with mosquitos or ants at all, and the semi-open roof between the villas was not a problem as everyone was quiet and respectful towards others. The price is very good for value. I also attended a silver making class in a little area in the forest and the staff dropped me by scooter for a small fee ($5 AUD one way). The kindness of Sidemen locals is unlike any other.

Such a picturesque view from the property and our room and bathroom were spacious and clean. Lots of lovely Warung’s within walking distance and they offered great massage at the villa. We had an early check out so the staff packed us a breakfast box which was very kind and delicious.
