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...).

MalaysiaThe place was really good and clean, the staff and host was really helpful and kind, they even arranged packed breakfast at 5am for us. Only negative is that the place is on a steep uphill and is not accessible by tempo van. It is impossible for elderly to walk up. We had to get auto to go up to the lobby and down. The hotel staff is really helpful, they offered to send us by scooty. During our checkout, the owner offered to send us down with our luggages by their car which was really really helpful!

It is walking distance from the airport, though if you have a lot of luggage then take an auto as the property is on a hill and the climb is steep. It's value for money. The staff is courteous and helpful.

United StatesThere is no card accepted. So it was a bit of a surprise when you travel. To be fair, it appears to be island-wide thing. You just have to carry wads of cash. International travellers don't have easy access to GPay as it is no instant... so there are some challenges in the payment options. No big deal, just an inconvenience when you are paying for 4+ rooms, you need a pile of cash.
The staff and people were good. They don't speak or understand English so it was a challenge. But luckily I had people who spoke Hindi and they hit it off immediately. Super close to the airport. Beware of taxis at the airport, they charge you Rs 300 for a 5 minute ride. But the roads are pretty steep otherwise you could literally cross the road from the airport and walk to Kanchan's nest.

IndiaThe room was at 4th floor, lot of stairs to take. The bed in the room is only twin size, a king sized bed would have been better for family of 3. Though a mattress was offered by caretaker.
Very close to airport, clean simple property, staff is very helpful. Nice place to stay in Port Blair. I would recommend it to anyone. Room was quite spacious as well.

The location is on hill top so many taxi drivers do not wish to climb the steep slope. Otherwise, rooms were clean, facilities are as promised, but the caretaker and helper and super helpful and supportive. Thanks to them, we could manage when our son was sick. Recommend if you don't mind the steep slope to the property. Very helpful people.

IndiaThe only issue was that someone constantly kept switching off the lights and fan of the common space despite knowing that we are in the room, and seeing that we had a few clothes drying under. It would have been good to just communicate to us to switch off when not needed. There is a kitchen but I didn't see any utensils.
The location is unbeatable, you can just literally walk into the airport in five minutes. The homestay is neat and comfortable, and the care taker was responsive and helpful. Clean bathroom with toiletries, cupboards in room, bed was comfortable, shared space had comfortable sofa and chairs.

IndiaSlippers were not provided in any of the rooms. Although, kettle was there in kitchen, other items to make tea ourselves was not available. It's well known that most of the guests in Andamans come here as tourists and they have to leave the room early in the morning to visit Baratang, Rangat or Diglipur. Sometimes, ferry schedule is like that. Tour operators, drivers, state buses match that specific schedule. But we were not provided our breakfasts when we left early in the morning. This shouldn't have happened. Being a homestay, it doesn't have any full fledge restaurant, so you can order meals to caretaker by 5pm or you can search some restaurant for your dinner or you can order food through online options. This homestay is situated on a hill top. So if may be difficult to come here on foot. Even auto rickshaw cannot go such inclination.
We booked two bedroom apartment with hall and kitchen. Rooms were of standard size but without any windows although there were two windows in the hall and one in the kitchen. Obviously, kitchen was useless. Beds in both the rooms were standard size double bed. Bathroom in both the rooms were equipped with water heaters. Staff is very co-operative and friendly. They did their best to make us comfortable during our stay. This property is surrounded by lush green trees.
