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.).

United KingdomThe shower had wires hanging out of the wall , however considering location we had hot water and quite powerful, the tap water was a shade of brown (not shower water) Reception is a little tricky to find however there are people about to ask, the walk down to the beach is a wooden platform but it was expected- not an issue really , it all adds to the experience . The male host (sorry didn’t get the name) was helpful and pleasant
The location is fabulous, right on the beach. Generally quiet apart from roaming dogs barking. Very clean and great air con and fan, bed comfy with mosquito net. Yard out the back for drying clothes, free water refil at reception

AustraliaDue to no fault of the accomodation provider, Palawan suffers from an inconsistent supply of electricity. When we stayed they unfortunately did not have a generator, but if they did it would've been the perfect relaxed beach getaway.
Almost the perfect beach accomodation! Seperate from El Nido Town proper, but a short and cheap tricycle away. Plenty of stores and restaraunts in the surrounding area. Staff were delightful and went out of their way to help us experience the local attractions. Room had everything you need, and tough to argue with walking out onto the beach every morning!

MalaysiaThe shower water pressure is pretty weak but that’s to be excepted in a beach shack next to the beach. it’s strong enough to clean the shampoo out of hair though. The scorpion I found on the balcony on my last day! definitely don’t drink the tap water as after 5 days I saw that it had turned the white sink orange!
The location is incredible - right on the beach along Corong Corong. It’s so peaceful and amazing to wake up and walk straight onto the beautiful tropical beach with clear water. the double bed was comfy and good storage for clothes. The bathroom is a good size. THE WiFi is fantastic. The fan works well and the AC was getting better. Antonio was a very friendly and hospitable host.

United Kingdomnothing major, just little things to bare in mind and most are our own personal preference and wouldn’t prevent us from booking again! when there isn’t a power cut the aircon isn’t great, we would have preferred a fan. bare in mind that you need to check in at Vali Joe, which we weren’t made aware of when we booked! there isn’t a fridge or anything to make a cup of coffee in the morning which would be nice especially with the terrace and the stunning view.
The location is fantastic, and a great spot to watch sunset. close and easy to the main town proper but also has some great places nearby to eat/have a drink at. the bed was comfy and room spacious. the little terrace is also really nice to sit at! good wifi when there is power.

ALFA Lodge is amazing! I stayed at the one of the wonderful rooms just on the beachfront. Sunrise and Sunsets are breathtaking and the area is calm after 9pm. It was so beautiful, clean and relaxed. Antonio (the owner) is originally Italian and a very friendly and nice person. He has been in El Nido for more than 10 years and knows the region very well. He gives great Suggestions what to do and eat in the region. He even cooked delicious Spaghetti with Seadfood one day and invited me for a free plate. He is such a good hearted person and wants his guests to feel good all the time - and this is the case! I can fully recommend ALFA Lodge and will definitely come back. :)

AustraliaLocation is unbeatable! Literally two steps and you’re on the sand. Stunning sunsets every night from your own balcony and just a short stroll to some great restaurants. Room was simple but very comfortable and quiet with good space to store luggage. Air con / fan combo was quite new so it wasn’t noisy. Felt like we were in the best spot and would happily stay here again.
