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...).

United KingdomThere were damp marks on the wall but did not effect our stay.
The receptionist was fantastic told us the best place to get a SIM, to exchange money and gave us loads of recommendations for things to do. I do recommend the escape rooms they are very fun. Room was comfy and Aircon was great

NetherlandsThe room is rather small, although that was expected.
Great location, very easy and approachable hosts. The place is listed as hostel, although they do have separate rooms which are very decent. Additionally the shared areas are big and well equipped. Very nice design of the place and very friendly vibe. Generally great value for money.

I like it very much! The staff is super nice. I was resting inside the room but next door was playing and making noise. I heard the staff came and ask them to lower down the volume because other customer is resting. I am very appreciative of this. I have am not sure if I got enough cash for breakfast next day, so can’t decide to buy a drink from vendor machine or not. The staff noted my concern then just buy me a Fanta. He said it’s more important I can enjoy Melaka. I was so touched by him😭 It’s a very nice place! Close to jonker street. Outside got bars but not so noisy. Just located beside Melaka river, can enjoy the view in the hostel. Definitely will stay again if I travel again in Melaka:)

MalaysiaOur complain is about the room we booked - Standard Queen Room. It has extended door which does not have any lock in our room. I would feel secure if they have added lock in our side. The exhaust fan in the bathroom is dirty which should be cleaned twice a month ideally for good airflow. No slippers available inside the room and bathroom. There are stains in the wall which looks dirty in general.
This place is located within the center of tourist attractions where most of it will be 5 to 10 mins walk. It is quite and far from crowdy and noisy areas providing good resting place. Staff are friendly and able to communicate thru English and Malay Language Effectively. Public areas are clean and comfortable. Dining area provides oven, water heater, microwave and refrigerator. Near to restaurants and bars.

United KingdomThe aircon was very old and doesn't seem to have been serviced for a while. This means that it is very loud and we had to have it on full power on the lowest temperature (16 degrees, which wasn't the actual temperature) to get a comfortable temperature to sleep in.
Excellent location next to the river near lots of restaurants and places to eat and drink. Nice, well-decorated room with a large bed. Friendly staff. The terrace next to the river is a great place to sit on in the evening.

ChinaThere are some.
The guesthouse is close to the river and bridge, and a couple of night pubs. It's interesting that at the entrance of the lane, there is a diner which provides breakfast in the morning and turns to be a pub in the evening. The staff is helpful. However, they might not be in the guesthouse for the whole day in the low season, so you might need to wait for them to show up to help you check in. The furnishings are nice with many mirrors which girls may like. The living room on the second floor is good to have a rest if it's not too hot. Ahhh, you have to take off your shoes when you enter the house, which might be a custom in Southeast Asia, but not enjoyable for me. Malacca is good to let yourself escape from those annoying things in life. However, when it rains heavily, you'll be bothered from sleep.

MexicoGenerally not clean, even if shoes are not allowed inside, the floor is dusty everywhere. The place need maintenance, there are little things here and there that need to get fix and clean profoundly. Showers without curtains, water everywhere in the bathroom. Common bathroom in the second floor is very dirty!! In the room I stayed there is a big problem with humidity in the wall and two beds are right there, it is not good for health to breath that humidity.
Location is excellent! Common areas are nice to hang around. Beds are decent and clean. I like the carpets in the floor, it makes it cosy.
