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.).

FranceThe room was quite small but it's okay compared to the local houses near-by, you have to put things into perspective. The mattress was smaller than the bed, it was only a 120cm which is a bit small for 2 persons... The shower is just above the toilet sink, so it's not practical but it works well. There were cockroaches on the outside hallway but no issues in the room. They must treat it with bug spray. We were actually happy with our stay.
A simple but safe and well-maintained accommodation in the middle of a humble area, right in the middle of the market of Soong. Don't be afraid when you get there because the area is a bit messy, but the coffee house reception is modern and offers really good food for a good price. The rooms are located in a tiny street among local houses. They can be a little loud in the evening, but who cares ? We were on vacation. Our room was tiny but clean, with a huge TV with movies and adjustable air-con. For the price, it was good. We could walk at night in the neighborhood where there are many places to eat, such as the Mercato de Mactan where many foodtrucks offer good food or drinks. It was for me a great experience to be far from tourists. The staff really welcomed us and helped us finding a white taxi for a fair price.

ColombiaThe staff are friendly and welcoming, really enjoyed them. If you need help getting a ride (which happens) they will sort you out. The room was bigger than expected and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. A/C and hot water if you're into that; everything functions well. The bathroom is a bit small but oh well. Newtown is about a 15 minute walk or you can get a bus/colectivo on the main road. Lastly, the restaurant is amazing and fantastically priced. Lunch bowls, noodles, milk tea were all top notch and cheaper than anything you'll find in town. If I ever find myself in Mactan again I would definitely stay here.

PhilippinesThe washroom was good. However, the toilet bowl wasn't flushing on my second day. It wasn't the best time but thankfully, the staff were quick to sort things out - they gave me a new room and helped me pack with my stuff!
First of all, the price is already good enough (all types of staycation facilities considered). The breakfast, which is included in the price, is QUALITY to say the least. But what I liked the most? The staff!! especially Ms. Rizi - they exuded a professional and hospitable conduct all through out. Bonus: The little Cafe' they have is cozy!

PhilippinesIt's not that we don't like it, It's just quite hassle to bring a luggage or heavy things since you have to lift them up upon going to the rooms. You have to walk for 10-15 meters away from the road. For the toilet its really hard to take a bath using the shower, its too slow but still manageable. The toilet bowl also flushes on its own even if none of us are using it, probably its connected to the other rooms that backfires which we find it a bit weird and creepy at first but we got used to it since we stayed their for 3 days. :)
We love the food choices and the breakfast at the café. Their food menu for me is an international standard. Their staffs are very approachable and accommodating. We are happy of their overall service.
