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...).

Location was near to any restaurant,shop etc. Quite place to stay out from the busy road. Pool was great and we own that pool during our stay! (Just us)

NetherlandsA very nice place to stay. Beautiful garden with many seating areas, a swimming pool and an open kitchen. Additionally, you can rent a scooter, do your laundry, have breakfast/lunch, and even dinner. Many facilities! Booked an extra night. 🌸 Also a great place if you want to experience some of the culture. When I was there, there was even a ceremony. Very special!

PhilippinesAlthough the room is good for two people, I think if you have a very large suitcase and/or lots of luggage, it will be hard to move inside the room. As for my room, I had a bit of an issue with the AC because it was not cooling enough (even though it was already 18 degrees). Not much of a big deal since I only stayed for one night.
I only stayed here for one night, and the reason I chose it was the proximity to the airport, as I have an early flight. The owner and staff were amazing. The room is good for two people, and the bed is really comfortable. I was able to get a good sleep.

UkraineDishes. Lack of glasses (I personally bought 2), frying pans, they need to be changed periodically. Bed sheets. In some places it is painted with a pen, in others it is torn. But it’s always clean, you can feel it.
I lived in this guesthouse for 21 days. Although initially I planned only 7. A very beautiful area with many birds and fish. In the morning you will wake up to the singing of birds, as if you were in the jungle. Everything is done in Balinese style, which gives this place a special meaning. not near the road, and therefore it was quiet, even despite the large number of vacationers. Individual rooms are equipped with everything you need. Cleaning was carried out daily, as soon as I left the room. For a small payment of 3USD you will be provided with breakfast. There is also a spacious kitchen if you want to cook sammies. There is a swimming pool and several relaxation areas. It won't be crowded. Hana is a very pleasant and responsive person who will try to help you in any matter. I was very pleased with my stay there, with the exception of some nuances.

United StatesThis property is nothing like what I expected, it needs a lot of updating (the reviews did not match) The room is small. There were people that lived on the property that played drums in early morning and late night. There are birds and dogs on the property, so expect chirping and barking at any time of the day. The pillows had really bad mold (I couldn't breathe at night, I had to remove them from my room). There were stains on the blankets, sheets, and towels. The walls were dirty. The bathroom smelled. If you just need a place close to town to rest for a day maybe, if you can deal with the things listed.
The host is very nice, and the check in process was quick and easy. The staff don't speak much english but they were very helpful, they did a good job maintaining the place as best they could. It's actually a few blocks from the restaurants and shops. Literally a 5 min. walk. Offers food for a low price and was very good. Smart TV to access youtube and netflix ( not very many places have those options)

United Statesthe only downside to the room was how awkward it was to navigate, especially with a large suitcase. there wasn't enough space on the floor to even open it..so definitely don't choose this option if you have a lot of things like i did haha
the woman running this place is a kind and thorough hostess. she gave me such a proper greeting when i first arrived - we sat down on a big comfy couch while she told me a little bit about her place. the room itself was comfortable and had all the necessary touches and there were many different animals and sculptures around the property that gave it so much character

Australia-
This place is very well organised, clean, and has an artistic atmosphere. It's giving an authentic Bali vibe from the gate to inside the house. I only stayed here for 2 nights between gili and my flight back home but I wish I stayed longer. Great location, lots of cheap laundry and local foods nearby, the area is quite quiet but nice bars and party pubs are just one block away. Definitely recommend a stay here. The host is also very friendly and very welcoming.

I like how cool the house was. It's a mixture of Balinese traditional house with a modern twist to it. The room that I stayed was comfortable. Bu Ani the owner was very welcoming and helpful.

AustraliaProperty had a lot of junk in spare rooms and in balconies- piles of “stuff”. Property had lots of birds in cages ( small) which was sad and grubby. Rooms very small and not value for money at all- we left early after 2 nights as we found a 4 star hotel that included breakfast for less! Well over priced for what is the most basic accommodation. This should be re priced and I am not convinced other reviews are legitimate ( 20 plus reviews rating fabulous). I never give negative reviews however we were disappointed Breakfast was additional and again very expensive

NetherlandsThe scores above 9 and the reviews I read on Booking.com and other sites were 100% reflective of my experience. I spent a week at Rahayu Guest House, which felt like a mini paradise with traditional Balinese ambiance. My room had a lovely comfortable bed and a delightful walk-in shower. I'm so happy that I chose to stay here instead of a resort hotel. Located just back from the main streets of Seminyak, its intimate, quiet, and tranquil. The communal area is charming, featuring a spacious sofa, pool, and dining area. A small team prepares both Indonesian and Western dishes (breakfast, lunch, dinner). The staff are highly attentive, friendly, and kind. The guests here appear to be either lone travelers or couples, all seeking similar experiences. Getting around is easy, walking. Though I recommend you choose to hire a local scooter for a few dollars a day or opt for a scooter taxi for a minimal fee. Highly recommended – a 100% recommendation.
