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 property was tucked away in the harbour, far enough away from the main part of town to enjoy some relaxation time. The outside seating area was excellent to have a morning coffee. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and approachable.

New ZealandNothing of note but our stay was too short.
Nestled up against the cliffs and right alongside the shore, Aquings place offers an out of the way sanctuary from the tourist hustle of El Nido. The staff are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable with regard activities in El Nido and will assist arrangements for tours, even at short notice. One bonus was having a few motorcycles for rent from Aquings, extra convenient for those confident enough to adventure independently. Wish we could have stayed longer and got to know the hosting family better, they are our type of people :-)

ItalyThe building can be a but outdated.
Very good option for two nights for the price. The building is excellent but it’s clean and well kept, my room was comfortable, big size with towel and sheet. Bed was comfortable and quite big. Staff was nice and accommodated my request. Little garden with table and chair is also nice to seat outside for some time, free tea, coffee and water provided along with a fridge to store your food and drinks. Overall, for the price I paid is a very nice option to spend one to three nights in El Nido.

Great location, staff couldn’t have been nicer and a lovely community in the area. The room was on the basic side, but all you actually need. It was really good value.

AustraliaCan't fault the place for the price, however just be aware there is no hot water, and it is a classic Asian wet room where the shower is over the toilet.

United StatesThe port by where the hotel is smelly and dirty.
Aquin’s place is tucked away by the port in El Nido and it was good value for money, but wasn’t our favorite place to stay. The rooms were small but comfortable. The port was at times pretty smelly. We thought we would like staying by the water but we opted to stay more inland the next few nights.

United KingdomJust be careful with the tours, sometimes the tour operator swaps around which one your doing, so just state the tour clearly when you get picked up in the morning.
Location is perfect for the island hopping, its 1 minute walk away from the beach and port. I stayed for 6 nights and there was no brown outs and had good aircon the whole time. Free water/tea and coffee and also discounted tours. Bed was comfortable. I'm a solo traveller so the size of the bed and room was fine, okay it's a little small for 2 people but you're not staying in the room all the time in El Nido. For the price it's very good.
