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.).

This place is soooo nice!!! Everything is well-organized, and you can tell they really care about their guests. The staff was super kind and gave us great tips about Banyuwangi. The kitchen is fully equipped, which was great for us to cook some meals. The location is quiet but still close to everything with a short Grab ride. Loved our stay here!!!

For the price, this place is absolutely worth it! The room was spacious and comfortable, and we loved that there was a kitchen where we could cook. Also, it's only a 10-minute Grab ride to the train station, which was super convenient.

We stayed only one night, but it was fantastic. The hostel is super clean, and the staff helped us with everything, even arranging a self-check-in video since we arrived late at night. Small details like that made our stay stress-free and enjoyable.

Good Feeling Ijen is the perfect place for travelers. It is located in a quiet area but still close to everything. The room was simple but clean, and the common areas were nice for meeting other travelers. The staff was incredibly welcoming and even gave us a list of recommended places to eat and visit, which was super helpful!

Staying here was one of the highlights of our trip to Indonesia! The staff were incredibly friendly and made it felt like a visit home. The facilities are very neat. oooh I miss them sooo much ❤❤. They also helped us arrange a Bromo-Ijen-Tumpak Sewu tour, which was one of the best adventures we had!!! The common kitchen was well-equipped, and we loved cooking our own meals. Highly recommended!!

Nothing really. There’s no hot water in Room but is manageable given the hot weather and there is Hot water available in shared bathroom.
We booked a room here based on the great reviews, and it did not disappoint! Before we even arrived, they sent us recommendations for food, transport, and things to do in Banyuwangi, which was super helpful. The staff were so welcoming, and the whole hostel was extremely well-organized. We also loved the common kitchen, which had everything we needed to cook meals.
