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.).

Sri LankaAs others have mentioned, the rooms don't have good sound proofing, so be sure to pack some ear plugs. A small price to pay though as the pros outweigh the cons
What a beautiful hotel with so much charm and character. Loved staying at Moon Tree. The owner and staff are quite welcoming. The location and value for money are fantastic. The little cafe at the hotel and adorable cat is a bonus.

I loved the experience of staying at the MoonTree. It was definitely special. I felt that I was back in time. I'm a lover of vintage so I loved the decoration and the stairs to the upper floor. It gave a mystical sense. The location was great right next to all the restaurants and cafes but far enough from the noise.

SingaporeThe street was very noisy. It was hard to sleep with music going on until the very early hours of the morning. I appreciate there is little more that could be done to soundproof the room as this is a heritage building.
A lot of atmosphere. It was a unique place to stay at.

SpainThe room with private bathroom is actually like a very small apartment. The mattress are upstairs.
The place is a traditional house of Georgetown, so it's charming but modest. Really close to the street food markets! Kent is nice and really helpful. He gave us a key after check out so we could have a shower before the bus and keep our luggage.

SpainThe shower/toilet combo room and edges of the room could have been cleaner, but the shower was good once you were in there. Because it has the original flooring, it takes a long time to dry off which can be awkward. The price and feel for me make up for this stuff. Some space for hanging clothes would be handy too.
I love this place, although it is not for everyone. It has a unique, nostalgic vibe, filled with curio and you do feel like you have stepped back in time. The bed was really comfy and the bed linen was lovely. The shower itself was good heat and pressure. Lots of space in the 3 bed room and a private space surrounded by greenery. Everyone is friendly and helpful.

Amazing heritage house with lots of character and lush vegetation just steps from Love Lane, Chulia Street and loads of restaurants. If you are an easygoing type who can appreciate a quaint home stay feel and the unique character of a heritage house and are not put off by sharing a somewhat rustic shower and toilet with other guests, you’ll love it.

United Kingdomwas not expecting it to have no fresh drinking water or kettles in room, the owner did offer us hot drinking water but we had to walk from room and use his coffee shop hot drinking water system the room had water for showers etc but lacked modern kettle and drinking water when i had researched i hadn't picked up on this and prior to staying here all my previous hotels had kettles in the room and bottled water in the rooms, there was no kettle but the owner showed us how to get the hot drinking water. would have been better if there were kettles in room it was a two minute walk from room with cups to their coffee house bar area to go and get a coffee the venue was a 1920's town house which was also a coffee shop cafe for locals, and was very quirky with lots of interesting decorations and pictures in their coffee shop and reception area, its more like a home stay and its not a modern hotel it was clean and owners and the staff that were working in the coffee house were very helpfull
