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.).

PhilippinesThe location is difficult to find if you don't use Google Maps. Not all residents in the area know about the guesthouse to point where it is. Even if you do use Google Maps, there are spots where internet is unavailable and the real time location does not show.
There were multiple common areas and one would immediately infer that this place was meant to connect people together. In one common area, the open window has a direct view to Mayon.

PhilippinesThe towels and beddings have strong scent of fabcon...im allergic to it..and I smell a bit of rust in the running water especially in first opening but as the water flows the smell disappear...the fridge in our room does not function..over all we enjoyed our stay at Balai Tinay Guesthouse
Very homey, we are tired from trips but the accomodation is very welcoming and we feels like home that we have a good rest..the ambiance is quite and with beautiful blooms of flowers in the terrace, lots of plants around...with ample parking slots for guest with vehicle..with free hot and cold water to drink in the lounge area..allowed to order grab delivery but we are not able to eat there since our schedule is roll at dusk then go back after lunch and recharge then at 5 pm we are on the roll again returning after dinner outside. The accomodation have more lounge area in any floor, there are lots of board games to enjoy...but we'd rather watch Netflix😆..Mother has no problem getting up and down the stairs...our unit has a separate backdoor entryway to the lower dining area..really we enjoyed our short 4 days 3 night stay at Balai Tinay Guesthouse..the staff are polite and helpfull.

United KingdomPlenty of space to relax outside of your room. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Washing facilities, free tea & coffee. Free water, hot and cold. We used the fridge and warmed up some food. Great rooftop terrace that has a fantastic view of Mt Mayon. Very clean and our bed was super comfortable. AC was so quiet ( the best we’ve had in the Philippines) We had a lovely stay and would have stayed longer if we could.
