Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

New ZealandNothing, absolutely perfect!
My husband and I just had the most wonderful six nights at Gek House. In fact, staying here was the highlight of our Bali trip! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful each day, a big shout out to Wayan Kadek and Made! Your friendly smiles warmed our hearts each day. The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean, the setting a relaxing oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Ubud. The breakfast each morning was so delicious ( especially the banana pancakes) and the pool a well needed escape from the Balinese heat! We would love to return some day and experience this wonderful hotel and the staff's warm hospitality. Highly recommend staying if you are in Ubud! Big love, from Mary and Karl NZ! 😊

AustraliaVery minor- the shower is in the bath which means climbing into it but this is very picky, I'd go back anytime.
the staff were very helpful, arranging drivers and being generally very kind. I loved the pool nestled in greenery which was very calming in contrast with the bustle of 'downtown' Ubud. Lovely big balcony with pool and restful view.

SingaporeFrom the moment we arrived, we were greeted by Made with a genuine smile and a heartfelt welcome that instantly made us feel at home. Room is quite spacious! We were surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature. The attention to detail in every aspect of the house was truly remarkable. The rooms were cleaned and made every day and the comfortable bed ensured a restful night's sleep. One of the highlights of our stay was undoubtedly the delicious breakfast served. It’s prepared with love and care, and the freshly cooked meals feature a delightful array of local delicacies and seasonal fruits, providing a delicious start to the day. The staff at Gek House were always ready to assist and their message replies were prompt, they took great care of the facilities, maintaining the beautiful garden and furnitures with their hands. It's rare to find a place that combines such genuine hospitality with impeccable service. Not easily accessible by car but just a 3 min walk out to two rows of eateries and shops. Highly recommend travellers to experience the warmth and tranquility of this hidden gem.

We loved staying at Gek house. It was a great experience. The accommodation was wonderful, everything very willingly provided. The breakfast was delicious, we loved the banana pancake. Wayan was always very friendly. Yan was always quick to respond to messages, helping us during our stay and with transportation. We took a tour with Wayan Sila and it was wonderful; he was very attentive and explained about the local culture during the tour. The housekeeper always had a smile on his face and was willing to help. Basically, everyone at this accommodation is wonderful and willing to help you. The location is great because it's close to the center but not directly on the street, so you won't have car noises; the house is surrounded by nature, so it's peaceful. There are plenty of shops to eat and enjoy the day, especially Coco Tacos, a small family restaurant that serves delicious food. A tip is to book your taxi directly with Gek, as the house is on a back street and not easily accessible the first time you arrive. We booked our car independently and the driver didn't know how to get there, but Wayan was very helpful and came to find us. In summary, Gek's house is a great place for you to stay in Ubud

TurkeyMy first room was a little dark and wanted move to other one . 2nd room was okay. I would be glad if they would use day light color in the small lamps next to the bed.
I am vegan that's why I could only eat fruits. They served also fried rice with veggies but I was ok with only fruits. Owners and the staff was so friendly and helpfull. I felt so secure and comfy. Close to the street. they have only 4 rooms thats why so quite .

AustraliaI have been coming to Bali for 10 years and Gek House is the best place I have ever stayed. Wayan runs such a beautiful hotel - my room was like something out of a tropical paradise dream with the pool below and jungle around. I walked to yoga every day and returned for swims in the pool in between classes. Wayan went out of his way to help me at any point even picking me up when I got lost! I am so grateful for my time at gek house - I will now always stay there.
