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):
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.).

NetherlandsWe had the first two rooms downstairs, directly next to the entrance. The building is very noisy, so each person who came inside interrupted our sleep. So bring your earplugs with you 😃. First room had a hard mattress, second room was better👍🏻.
De location was perfect 👌🏼, walking distance of a nice area in Georgetown. The size of the rooms were good. It was very clean. Next to the entrance there is a small shop, that was great! The host Danny is very kind, thoughtfull and helpfull.

Near to the food street which just have a 10min walk, opposite hotel have the cafe and music band, which you can go if got free time. Convenient stall at the ground floor which is a bonus marks. if you aim for a short stay, this is a good choice for penang food hunting

Great place, with really helpful staff. The room had an AC, TV, private bathroom, 2 beds, towels, bathroom kits, hair gel and shampoo, hair dryer, and toilet paper. They even had a kettle, glasses and spoons. Very nice place and the staff will help you out with anything.

United KingdomWe stayed in the room without window, I think a room with window there would be a lot more enjoyable if able to afford it, it gets a bit stuffy.. Check in time as described is quite late ( 3pm) Would of loved a dimmer light on bed side table and mugs for kettle A water dispenser in building if possible would if been great, ended up having to use loads of water bottles and no big bottle (5L) from the convenience store either.
Staff helpful- allowed us to store our bags whilst we waited for check in Well located in town to many restaurants, cafe, bars and main street. Just around the corner from Little India. Felt safe with security at night in front and pads/codes to get in. Bedroom was very simple but clean and bed pretty comfortable Very good shower Convenience store attached to building, note staff there was grumpy.

MalaysiaThe only thing I can complain about is the creaky beds as they are not stable.
The place is nice and quite near many tourist attractions, affordable price if you don't mind mixed dorm, they also provide female-only dorm. Food wouldn't be a big problem cause you can find so so many restorans nearby and a 24-hour convenience store.

New ZealandFire alarm went off at 2am and everyone had go outside. The issue with no staff onsite becomes apparant in these kind of situations as we do not know if some random half dressed guy telling us it is safe even works at the hotel. Otherwise no issues, but there were other gets frustrated by the lack of onsite staff for day to day things. As others mentioned, walls are thin, so you can hear everything. TV Didn't work (probably remote batteries), AC remote was also playing up. Beds extremly firm (if you are used to something softer like us, it feels like you are sleeping on the floor).
Great location close to ferry and most walking streets of George town. Seamless checkinn. Hotel in reasonable condition with signs of improvements ongoing.
