description The Internet has significantly improved the quality of consumers’ decision when making online bookings for homestays which is an emerging segment of hospitality in Malaysia. Drawing from DeLone and McLean’s Theory of Information System Success, this study examines the effects of information quality, system quality, and electronic service quality on user’s satisfaction of e-homestay portals. Data were collected from homestay lodgers (N=187) in Malaysia.
