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.).

ThailandRunning water is unstable but still ok.
Comfortable bed, clean room, good facilities, friendly staff, great location near shopping areas, markets, coffee shops, restaurants, in walking distance to many highlight places i.e. museums, ports, etc. and what's out of my expectation is free unlimited laundry service.

United StatesOnly problem was the water was running very weak so it made our shower difficult.
We only stayed here one night but we already made plans to come back next time we pass through Puerto Princessa. The staff is so friendly and helpful, they helped us book transportation and connected us with other travelers who are doing similar tourist activities as us. The condo was spacious. It was so nice to have a bedroom for once, especially as a budget traveler. The restaurant has yummy pizzas, the pool is beautiful and the outside common area has a great vibe.

PhilippinesThe area outside the room can be improved liek a common area if you want to sit and not staying in your bed. The walls inside the bathroom can also be used for adding more areas to put your clothes.
Great staff. Located near Super Metro mall. Free laundry is vey helpful and it saves me time. The area is near some food establishments, like Julies bakery, local Korean food stop, street foods, carinderias.

SingaporeNothing much really.
I like that this is actually a female dorm house with one 6 bedder dorm room on the second floor, and a double room at the ground level. As I was staying in this accoms with my male partner, we stayed at the ground level - you can see how safe and secure this would feel for a solo budget female traveller. They also provide free laundry service, and location is very ideal near Colon street, within walking distance to most attractions within Cebu City. The double room has Netflix for times when you don't feel like battling Cebu dust, noise and heat. Perfect, I should say, for budget travellers looking for somewhere convenient.

Curtains in the bed, light, sockets, and lockers are available just outside the room. Big room with plenty of storage for luggage.The bathroom is very clean and has hooks and shelf. Good aircon and good internet. Hot and cold drinkable water is available in the room. It has everything and more (hairdresser, iron, free laundry) what you can expect from a very good hostel. Excellent! I'm coming back to Cebu, and I've booked it again!

ItalyAircon was a bit noisy and Internet was not working super well. We stayed in a Deluxe Queen Studio and it did not have any outside view.
Location and price are the best things of this place. Hotel is located close to the port where you get the ferry to Bohol and Siquijor and to the main attractions in Cebu. The price is very cheap. Room is very very simple, but clean. Staff is nice and helpful. Works well for a one night stay in Cebu, when you don't want to spend much.

Singapore- Noise. I think this hostel is a common transit stop so be prepared to get disrupted sleep when others need to wake at 3, 4am for their morning flights. Also the door lock doesn’t seem to be fitted well and kept banging against the lock frame - Pillows needed more filling - they were very thin and lumpy (you can feel individual cotton lumps inside which kept shifting around] - No windows, but that’s ok for a 1 night stay - I think I was the 2nd or 3rd person to reach for a dorm of 6, but they had run out of towels, so I had to use my own - It was a bit hard to find, this sign is not obvious
- Really kind and helpful staff - Clean, even the communal bathrooms & comfort room/toilet - Comfortable bed & blankets - Hot water shower - Free drinking water - Communal hairdryer and iron for use - Good WiFi - Felt safe even though the area outside is a bit sketchy - Super value for money
