Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PolandWe really enjoyed our stay at Maha Neka. The place and facilities are very basic, but it was all we needed. The views from the terrace are fantastic and the people running this place are so lovely. We were able to rent a scooter directly from them. The location is really good, close to great warungs and cafes, but you’ll need a scooter to get around Sidemen and other areas. Note that the villa has some permanently open holes in the walls (for ventilation, I assume), which means some geckos and bugs will inevitably make their way in. The sound of the surrounding nature was also quite loud during the night - personally, I didn’t mind and slept really well, but my partner had to use ear plugs.

United StatesThe property is close to so many restaurants and easy walking distance to so much. You can rent a scooter from them or take leisurely walks. Breakfast is wonderful and Ayu and Ari are the sweetest most helpful owners.
This villa is really beautiful, the deck in the front is so relaxing I could have stayed forever.

RomaniaWe loved Maha Neka and its owners! Such a nice family that goes extra mile to make you feel like home. I read in previous comments that there’s a building now obstructing the view. I didn’t find that as a problem considering the other building blends with the nature. That’s definitely not a reason not to choose this place. The room was spacious and very clean, the garden same, and it’s a big plus that they have their own restaurant if you’re not in the mood of going out. Loved it! Will definitely come back!

SwitzerlandThe extra activities organized by the owner were expensive. Our recommendation is to write down the promised price. E.g. We believed we agreed on a different price vs what we were charged for an afternoon trip to the temple (700 Rps to go to Besakih and back!). Climbing to Mt. Batur next to the passing motorcycles was also not a top experience. Make sure that the guide takes a different route. That left a bitter aftertaste.
Nice quiet location, simple, functional independent little house.

We spent 2 nights in Sidemen to relax and this accomodation was the perfect place for that. We loved to hang out on the terrace, hear the birds and crickets, and enjoy the surraoundings. The room is beautiful and well designed, clean, spacious and comfortable. The owners were super nice and friendly, we loved the fulfilling breakfast too.

United KingdomIt was perfect
The breakfast was excellent. The rooms were extremely peaceful and easy to sleep in at night. The staff were exceptional and even drove 2 hours to give us some items we left at the hotel and also dropped us to our new hotel after our stay . The location has plenty of good warungs and restaurants and all the attractions are a short drive on a scooter or car away. I loved my stay here and would love to come back .
