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 and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Malaysiatv channel - only have 6 available channels but only 1 was working. the others were error receptionist/ staff - stayed for 2 nights & encounter 3 staffs. but 1 of them was unfriendly. not mentioning here but the management should ensure front desk staff is pleasing for the guest.
Room size - just nice for the guest to stay, not too small. facilities - all well maintained with lift location - strategically spot on & nearby ferry/cruise harbour parking - more than 20 parking space toilet & shower - water pressure is excellent

Malaysiathe room aircond was badly positioned. the cold air didn't reach the bed at all. the wifi also was very bad. i got 3 different passwords for 3 different nights of stay. but all of the time it was always slower than a dead snail. the hotel is located next to a busy main road. can hear car/motor noises all the time.
the room was spacious, nice & clean, with an iron/ironing board, kettle / coffee & minibar available. a free open air car park next to the hotel for all guests. the location is nearby all good foods & tourist spots.

AustraliaNoisy front road, view at the back is a new multi story carpark (not on a google map yet) , they say a price for breakfast but there isn't a restaurant at present. Place to eat close by. Photos attached are the room and the view.
The hotel is close to the piers and main restaurant shopping areas, little India, Fort etc. It was very cheap, clean, had fridge, T/C making and nice ensuite but no restaurant. The road it is on is very busy as it is the main road around Georgetown and has rumble strips which are very noisy. We were meant to get a view room and were at the back and looks into a multi level carpark. So there are no views from the back, maybe the front across the water but then it is noisy. They give you WIFI code for 24hrs, then need to get a new one. Guess it is safer than some hotels. We had breakfast at JOJA Bagels in Bishop St, excellent and cheap.

MalaysiaThe toilet bowl behind was leaking and has a pool of water. I could hear clearly all the sound from the corridor.
The location has easy access to food, either by walking or by Grab. It provide ample of parking and it is well lit and safe at night. It is simple but everything you need, from iron, iron board, hair dryer, towel, toiletries, water, water boiler, TV and fridge. It is definitely clean.

RussiaThe staff wasn't helpful at all. I've arrived at 8pm with 2 big luggages and little baby. Nobody helped me with the luggage instead of this they immediately asked to pay for the room first not even giving time to rest after the road. Very poor english speakers unusual for Georgetown. When I've asked for a place to have a dinner they've mumbled something unrecognisable but the next day it turned out that the restaurants were just steps from the hotel and still open. The bathroom is so dark it is hard to see yourself in a mirror.
The location is nice - just steps from the historical center and all the attractions whilst on the quiet street. However the road is still a bit noisy in the night. The room is spacious, the harbour view is nice.
