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...).

This was my second stay at SummerHome15, and just like before, it was an excellent experience! The place remains as good as ever—comfortable, and well-maintained. The location is unbeatable, making it easy to explore Penang’s attractions, food spots, and conveniences. The host is fantastic—responsive, friendly, and always ensuring a smooth stay. Highly recommended, and I would definitely return again!

Canada- If you are a solo traveller looking to meet new people this place might not be for you. I was able to enjoy my quiet alone time after being in dorms for some time so this was perfect for me - Not much going on in the area because it's not centre of Georgetown
I honestly don't know why this place is not rated higher. I had such a nice relaxing stay - Clean washroom - Good kitchen with everything you need and water dispenser - nice living room -Free laundry and you can dry your clothes in their property - Nice, bright home - really quiet - mirror in room - big shopping mall near - hawker stalls near

Very much enjoy the property, everything is well kept and clean with proper instruction of what can or cannot do and more importantly it’s quiet and save. The 2 mins walk to one of the nice hawker center New Cathay Cafe is a major plus.

IndonesiaLast night, we checked into a homestay where I had previously stayed. During my last visit, I had voluntarily helped with household chores—washing the toilet, folding laundry, cleaning and sun-drying all the bedding, and mopping the floor. i need to dry my clothes too. This time, we made a last-minute booking at 9 PM and arrived past 10 PM after an expensive and arduous Grab ride from the national park to the city center, only to be stuck in traffic. The double bedroom with an attached toilet had no window, and the room emitted a strong odor. The bathroom was not particularly clean, so after freshening up, I picked up stray hairs and ensured the space was tidy. Despite these efforts, we could not sleep—the bed was too small, and an elderly man was crying, shouting, and wailing throughout the night and into the morning. Oddly enough, he behaved normally whenever he used the shared toilet, shower, or kitchen. At first, I thought I was imagining things, but my family heard it too. Concerned and somewhat frightened, I left the door open while we attempted to rest, only air from the main door. By morning, we were utterly exhausted, sore, and in pain. We woke at 7:30 AM and went to the temple, but our bodies ached so much that walking became difficult. Returning after 10:40 AM, we endured yet another round of waiting for two buses in the congested city center traffic. Upon arrival, I realized I had missed multiple calls from the homestay owner. When I returned the call, she responded sternly, displaying impatience and irritation. She bombarded me with rules, warning that if we failed to return by 12:30 PM, she would change the door code, and if we overstayed beyond noon, we would be charged an extra night. When I questioned why she treated guests this way, especially elderly and fatigued foreigners, she remained unyielding. I reminded her that kindness fosters business, and no business thrives without compassion. She was already well-off—why, then, was she so impatient
This was the message she sent: "Dear Valued Guest, I understand that you booked the room for one night, checking out on April 1st. Our check-out time is strictly 12 PM. I attempted to call you, but you did not answer. If you do not check out by 12:15 PM, we will charge you for an additional night. Thank you." before 12pm she started texting, at 12:08pm she called me and at 12:10pm i texted her back 12:14pm i called her back and ' talked ' (very fierce impatient unkind) for less than 1 minute she or the line no sound . I spoke with the housekeeper, who has been serving her family since their children were young and now helps maintain the homestay. I told her, "This is unacceptable. The weather is scorching, and my parents are in pain from lack of rest. Other homestays have allowed me to check out at 2 PM without issue, permitting me to use the facilities as if it were my own home. we are trying we are already on our way i showed you." I felt an overwhelming urge to cry. Unlike other children who can provide their parents with comfort and luxury, I struggle to give my family even the most basic level of ease. Everywhere I look, people are glued to their phones, consumed by impatience, greed, and emotional instability. It seems the world has become obsessed with money, incapable of understanding or showing genuine compassion, dishonesty, just remotely do not care much. her house is pretty expensive compared to a few others.
