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.).

IrelandThere is only a thin sheet available on the bed, so if you are beside the AC, it can get a bit too cold at night.
Really helpful staff. The food in the bar area is really good and cheaper than most other places (and drinks too). The hostel offers transfers to and from the airport. There is bike rental available. There is a different activity every night too. All in all we had a great time here.

Netherlandswe liked everything.
We had such a great time staying at Chill Out Hostel! The facilities were good, and the staff really friendly and helpful. The location was great, just a short walk from the beach and close to restaurants and bars. The best part was the friendly atmosphere as they organized activities during the week, which was a nice way to meet other travelers and have some fun together. They also have a restaurant with plenty of options to eat and great wifi if you want to work. Overall, we had a good time and would recommend it to others looking for a relaxed yet sociable vibe. Make sure to also check the deals on their website and Instagram account!

United KingdomNot much going on at the hostel, was very quiet. Also bare in mind Boracay is expensive!
Private room was nice, not the biggest but a decent size. Private bathroom was close to the room and the shower was separated to the toilet by a slide door which was good as it didn’t get too wet on the floor. Location was perfect.

SlovakiaStaff was very friendly, helpful. Rooms were clean. We had private bathroom so that was plus. In room everything was functional. Food and drinks in restaurant was very good. There was live music night, we played beer pong. People went there from neighboring hostel as well. Happy hour was really happy. There was 30 minutes when selected drinks are not for a only for good price, but for free. Really good atmosphere. It's a hostel but really friendly one.

United KingdomShowers sometimes not hot but not such a problem on a tropical island
All staff were fantastic - owner was very interested in getting to know the guests and always making sure they had a good time, which made you feel instantly welcome. Hostel bar was cheap and chilled, food was great and reasonably priced for the island. Beds were comfy and had everything you need to have a comfortable stay in a dorm. One of best hostels I’ve stayed in.

United KingdomAC in dorms too cold. Need to bring your own padlock for locker. Not a complaint, just something to be aware of. Horrible, too loud dance music every night in the bar as soon as the sun set tho maybe that's just my age. Just not very chilled when you're eating/ trying to talk.
Nice chill out zone and attached bar/ restaurant with some good meals and a few veggie options and reasonable prices. . Possibly the cheapest beer on the island also. Free water refills Near a few other little bars, cafes and shops and only 5- 10 minutes walk to white beach. Even closer to beach on the east side.

TurkeyIf you wanted hot water in the shower, the water flow rate decreased. This wasn't really a problem. I will come again one day to experience the same days
Definitely this hotel was very good whether you were alone or not. I wish I could stay a little longer. If I come to Boracaya again, I will stay here again. You notice that the rooms were cleaned daily. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space to socialize. The staff and the hotel owner were very nice. Thanks for everything.

United StatesSometimes it gets a little rowdy at odd hours in the middle of the night, but that’s to be expected when people are on holiday.
They organize pretty great events most nights. Starts off with a free half hour happy hour which was a nice way to meet fellow travelers. The staff are also pretty great. Made me feel right at home.
