Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The air conditioning smelt of second hand smoke which was not only in the room but also on the ground floor where the lobby is. If this could be improved the hotel would be perfect.
The bathroom was fantastic with a bathtub and a separate shower. There were excellent bidet toilets which were very clean.

it's understaffed. The double bed is too small for two adults. wifi is slow.The hotel is close to metro and main station but I wish I booked somewhere closer to sightseeing spots. It's overpriced during lunar new year anyways.
The staff are really friendly and helpful. Room is clean. Shower is good. It is quiet in the room. There is enough lightings and eletric plugs. staff helped bring extra blanket so my parents could sleep undisturbed. The breakfast has vegetarian options but there's no fruits.

It ticks all the boxes (quiet, clean, comfortable, good wifi, friendly and helpful staff, ideal location, reasonably priced, +++). I often visit Kaohsiung and have stayed in numerous different hotels there, including several in the Kindness Group, but this one will be my first choice for future visits.

Small choice for breakfast of standard quality. We decided to stay for a longer time but that included a Saturday on which we payed almost twice the price of the other days. Saturdays seem to have higher rates than other days (Sundays a lower) in Taiwan but double the price is a bit exaggerated.
There are at least 2 Kindness hotels in the area. Ours was great, don't know about the other. The room happened to be cleaned at 13:30 and it was no problem to check in straight away. Fairly big room, lacking some minor ammenities like a shoe horn. There are also no icecubes available. That is made up for by free coffee or tea and free ice cream (8 flavours) on the ground floor, all day long. Free laundrette on the 7th floor.. Very friendly and helpful staff. One of our best hotels in Taiwan. With the main train station within walkable distance on one side, a bit further to Formosa Blvd MRT station and Liouhe night market on the other side, the hotel's position isn't a bad one.

A tad noisy, you can sometimes hear the neighbours and traffic. Nothing that earplugs can't solve if a bit of noise is really bothering you. I didn't really appreciate the check-out call at 11.30am, when I still had about thirty minutes to hand in the keys. However, it was possible to stay in the lobby after returning the keys, and I was able to wait for my train there, which I appreciated.
The location of the hotel in relation to the station and public transport was excellent! There is also a night market a few minutes' walk away from the hotel, and the nearest underground station is the 'dome of light'. The vast majority of places to visit are within easy reach of the hotel, either by transport or on foot. The room was spacious and clean, the staff very friendly and I appreciated the free self-service drinks (coffee, tea and hot chocolate) and ice creams. I was able to check in a little earlier and that was much appreciated too. Breakfast is decent, even if the choice of sweet dishes is limited and fruit is perhaps missing to make it more complete. However, it does give you the opportunity to taste Taiwanese breakfasts!
