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.).

HungaryThe internet was slow, sometimes it did not work. Other than that all was great 😃
We liked the location. It is in a quiet place, there is a beach very close, 5 minutes walk. City mall can be reached by walking. There are a lot of small shops with vegetables and fruits and fish and all on the way. There is free transport available also to the closest beach and City Mall. Breakfast is great. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was equipped, we cooked occasionally. The Jacuzzi on the terrace was just perfect under the stars. We had a partial sea view and view to the garden which we enjoyed.

GermanySometimes the shower didn't work, so there was little water. And in the last 2 days we have unfortunately had drunk and noisy neighbors.
The sea view. The staff was particularly nice and helpful. The romantic dinner was good and reasonable for the price. Very nice honeymoon suite. The free transfer to the city mall and diniwid beach is also good.

NetherlandsThe accommodation needs a little renovation as it seemed a bit old. The breakfast choices are very poor, I have never stayed in a place that doesn’t offer at all (free or paid) juice, so that was a bit weird and can improve.
The location and view! We stayed in the penthouse accommodation and the view did not disappoint it, it was breathtaking! They helped with organizing our transport from the airport and it was great!

MalaysiaNo issue - maybe being picky they should have 3 rather then 2 pancakes as that option was not filling as a breakfast option. But very minor!!!
Amor apartment is a very cosy B+B with friendly staff and a nicely located place that is quite yet accessible to the beach. The hosts also organised the whole end to end transfer for us so was an easy seamless experience.

United KingdomThese were very minor to me and I hope they can correct them, but the shower seemed to have two settings cold or very hot. Took a lot of fiddling around to get it at a temperature that I could stand and the pressure from the shower was very poor. We did mention this to them but I was never resolved. Warning, there is a very steep walk from hotel lobby to the room, followed by a lot of steps. If you struggle with steep paths and stairs this might not be the place for you.
The view was amazing. I originally booked for 3 nights but loved this place so much that I booked a couple of extra nights.

The property is well located. A little bit quieter away from the main shops & hustle of the main town/strip..

FinlandOnly negative experience was some troubles with e-bike drives - some of them tried to get over price. So always before get a drive ask the price - otherwise they could demand something else you expected.
The place quite well matched what was described in the web-page. Smoot transportation from Caticlan airport to hotel and also back to airport. Hotel is cosy, clean, secure and staff is friendly and always ready to help. Good options for breakfast. The place is peaceful and there is some distance to white beach and d'Mall. Still you can reach White beach northen part in 15 min walk, d'Mall perhaps 30-45 min walk from beach front. Still we usually used e-bikes - so be prepared to pay for that.

NetherlandsWe stayed in the apartments with ocean view which is very nice, but it's on a hill so not really convenience with little kids.
great staff. Big nice rooms so high price quality ratio. It's more a quiet area comparing to station 1 or 2, but still close to everything.

CanadaThe wifi connection from the 2nd floor and up were a bit slow and we ended up using our data instead of the wifi for better connectivity. While the area is nice and quiet, it was a bit farther to the main area of Boracay than what we expected. Tricyle/jeepned drivers also seemed reluctant to drive up to the steep hill when commuting.
The staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms were big, spacious, and included the necessary items. The overall resort was nice, quaint, and private, which we really enjoyed. The pool area is well maintained, clean, and refreshing. The breakfast that was included in our booking was tasty and enjoyable.

United StatesPlease read if you are planning to book a trip with the whole family and assuming this will save you money because they have a stove so you can cook instead of eating outside. If you are a family of four, then this is perfect for you! However if you are more than that and with a baby, just book a hotel in front of the beaches. 1st: This hotel is far from the main beaches. It may look like its near station 1, but it is still a far walk 2nd: You will just end up paying a lot of E-Bike rides back and forth so the fees would just add up. Also, some E-bikes do not like going uphill in the hotel so they will drop you down the road and you will need to walk to go back. 3rd: When I said uphill, it is literally a very narrow, steep road. This is a road going to the hotel (Not going to your room). It is very dark at night (No lights at all) and there was a dog unleashed barking at us while walking there. 4th: They have a free shuttle but it is only for diniwid beach and citi mall (citi mall is still far from the main area / center). Also, it is only until 6pm. (Their driver was friendly tho! As I said, their staff were nice) 5th: When you add a person, it is 1500 per night so if you stay for 4days, it is 4500 already. We added two people so it was 9000 for us. Just book a beachfront hotel and use those extra sums of money to treat yourselves at restaurants. *They wont let you add more than 6 people and would ask you to book another room for that which we understand as this is their rules. 6th: As everyone says, the wifi is not that good. Although we were already near the reception area, we still had to go out on our patio to use wifi (sometimes) it works pretty well on some days.
It has a stove, rice cooker, beach towels, plates and other utensils. The aircons were strong enough to make the whole apartment cold. The patio and breakfast were decent. The staff was friendly and let us check in at 10am. They also booked us ground floor because we had a baby and a senior citizen with us. The rooms were clean. The master’s bedroom has its own bathroom. (Family suite has two bathrooms)
