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.).

United StatesJoy was very helpful for the most part but sometimes she didn't reply for extended periods of time. Perhaps there was a connectivity issue with What's App? The only big complaint we have is that the window above the extra bed/mattress on the floor has no glass...it is covered with boards made to look like decorations, but there are cracks between the slats that allowed mosquitoes, lizards and misc. bugs into the room, which was very disturbing. We appreciated the willingness of the host to allow us to move to another apartment but ultimately decided to stay and covered the window with a sheet we were given. THE WINDOW NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND HAVE GLASS ADDED! Other than that, the only other thing is a suggestion to get rid of the shag bathroom rugs and toilet cover...these are unsanitary and gross. We appreciated that a towel rug was provided upon request. Another suggestion would be to replace the colored light bulbs with regular/clear ones to give better lighting.
We liked that the location was away from the bustle and noise of El Nido proper. We appreciated the free pick-up from the van terminal and the tuk-tuk transport to and from the beach at the edge of El Nido proper that was usually available when we needed it. The drivers were especially helpful the morning we left. High tide prevented them from being able to drive us to the transportation terminal, but they drove as far as they could and then carried our luggage from the beach, through the surf and to the street where we caught a tricycle. The apartment was nicely decorated, clean, and the bed was comfortable. We appreciated having a fridge and the availability of clean towels, bed linen and cleaning if/when we needed it. We appreciated being able to stay for an additional night when our ferry to Coron was cancelled. Everyone we dealt with at the facility was kind and helpful.

United Statesthe apartment/accommodation were artistically designed. I love the ambience. I was able to rest and get a good night sleep after a whole day of island tour and the hustling & bustling in the town proper. The staff were very helpful and efficient. The owners are very approachable, kind and hospitable. Thank you.

United StatesEverything was wonderful. We had the family room and it was very clean and comfortable. Nicely decorated and the hosts were very accommodating. We liked that we pretty much had a private Tuk Tuk driver to take us to town when we needed a ride. They also dropped us off to the airport for free even after we already checked out from their hotel to stay at another. Just tipped the drivers for their trouble in figuring out how to fit our luggage in the 2 Tuk Tuks (we had a lot! 😂) My family really enjoyed El Nido and will definitely stay here again when we come back. They also had good prices on the Island Hoping Tours which we took a private one. Also rented a couple scooters to drive around from them. It was a wonderful experience!

IrelandThe noise at night time affected our sleep on 2 out of 3 nights. The first night there was incredibly loud and non stop barking from dogs however we heard another guest complain about this and to give the staff credit they did rectify this immediately and we never heard noise from the dog after this. Unfortunately, there was noise from the surrounding hens which was very loud which kept us awake most of our second night. I would recommend the staff move the hens further from where people are sleeping if possible or else for guests to request a room far away from the hens because other than this we absolutely loved our stay here and have zero complaints!
Pretty much everything. The staff were so nice, the property was absolutely beautiful. It was remarkably clean and the little garden area outside with tea lights etc - you can tell the staff take such pride in their property as it’s so well kept. Bed was super comfortable; the shower was lovely, air conditioning was great. The location is great for younger couples particularly as it is only a 3-4 minute drive on a moped to the main town (with gorgeous views all the way), beautiful community nearby with kids playing basketball and walking distance to the beach too.
