Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaBeautiful spacious room in the family compound. Very reasonably priced. Excellent firm king bed, delicious breakfasts brought to our room, lovely secluded pool, our every need taken care of. Short walk to the palace and market and in the other direction to Delta supermarket. Nice warungs in the street for meals. We highly recommend Jiwa's nephews Ajus and Deknik as drivers. Deknik took us to local sites and shared lots of information about local customs and culture.

AustraliaNothing. I loved everything about it.
I loved everything about this beautiful homestay. Large room, comfortable bed and pillows, exellent aircon, daily water, heaps of power points in the room, really hot water in the shower assistance with what to go and see, really nice pool (8m x 2.5m), yummy breakfast brought to your balcony. I was lucky enough to be in room 03, beautiful gardens throughout the property. And the family are warm and welcoming. Jiwa and Ketut, you have a wonderful family. And little Junior (the pug puppy).

PortugalThere's a frog in an small pond right in front of the room...I think he is hidden inside a small fiber wall in the pond...he is LOUD. He goes on ALL NIGHT, extremely loud...I mean, it's like an alarm going off non stop. Someone needs to do something about it...move him to another area or something. We got zero sleep that night...I don't even eat animals, and I had all kinds of thoughts about what I could do to that frog! I didn't know a frog could be so loud!
Jiwa was great. Our AC had a leaking issue, so we moved to another room for a couple of nights. The breakfast is just great! The pancakes were awesome. Really worth it!

LatviaThe basic facilities, only one towel for person. Delicious breakfast but you can choose only one option of all available (differently cooked eggs or pancakes or fruits or rice/noodles). Usually fruits are as addition not as a separate breakfast option. But all this is nothing important, just to be prepared.
Beautiful territory, garden, excellent location in the centre of Ubud, no street sounds, fantastic family.

NepalEverything seems good. The photo frames in the rooms were out of place but not a big issue.
The rooms were excellent. Though the photos on the walls were a bit out of place, it was a minor to no issue. However, we loved our stay at Jiwa's. It's not the place, it's the people. They were the best and always helpful.

ItalyIt can be loud at night because of the frogs around. The bathroom would benefit from a deep cleaning and towels would need an update. I would also recommend washing the sheet that goes on top of the bed, didn’t feel clean at all. If you’re not too picky, it’s a great place to stay.
Jiwa’s house feels like a very mystical place. The room is simple, the location is great, walking distance to most places. Jiwa’s family was also very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was also delicious.

Everything about Jiwa's house is so good and we highly recommend . This place deserves more than 2 star! Javier and Chandra
