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...).

GermanyEverything was good!
Very remote, chill area. The bamboo hut we stayed in was in good condition, very well maintained, the bath was clean and everything functioned well. Because of the remote area it is usually necessary to have some kind of transportation but even if not, you can get everything you want there. Tommy & his father are very nice and helpful and are really willing to make you feel at home.

NetherlandsThe downside of the beautiful and quiet location is that there are few shops and restaurants within walking distance.
A gorgeous little oasis of peace and nature just outside Chumphon. The owners are incredibly kind, helpful and welcoming. A stay at this hostel is inexpensive and includes an extensive breakfast. I stayed in one of the tents in the forest, where I felt completely safe as a solo female traveler. This is a place where you can leave your belongings lying around and expect them to still be there when you return. The tents are basic, but clean. The owners can arrange a bike for just 220 baht per day and there are many beaches around to visit where you will often be the only guest. This small-scale hostel is the perfect place to meet other solo travelers and retreat from the busy Thai cities! I hope to return here one day.

NetherlandsEverything good!
This place is a hidden gem near Chumphon. We ended up here by chance after our hitchhiking adventure and couldn’t have wished for a better stay. A quiet place with great attention to detail and plenty of space for creative thoughts. Tommy and his father are amazing! Throughout our entire trip through Southeast Asia, we have never been as well taken care of as we were here at Bar Horizon. We stayed in the tent for 2 nights, and Tommy was so hospitable, taking us to the market and into town. A beautiful area to explore by scooter and relax. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Tommy and his Dad were amazing hosts. The room we stayed in was really comfortable and we'll thought out - loved the seating area outside on the edge of the lake, very chilled! Nothing was too much trouble and we felt very at home. Love the psychedelic decoration, a really cool place to hang out, especially around the bar. We would definitely stay again - thank you Tommy and family!

United KingdomGreat place to come to to get off the beaten track, I booked on the way through from Koh Tao to Bangkok, ended up staying three nights. Run by a father-son team, they were excellent, took care of breakfast, scooter rental and taxi to the station. Nice quiet bar with locally crafted beers available. I stayed in the bedroom, with has lots of colourful lights for a good time :) P.S. did I mention they have dogs?
