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.).

One of our favourite hostels on our travels so far! Very clean, well maintained and great facilities. They also helped organise some amazing excursions around the island too. We especially loved the food, both breakfast and the Indian restaurant for dinner!

SwedenThis hostel is more like a hotel located in a calm area 7 min from GL center. The beds are comfy with a big thick duvet, your own bed light, sockets, curtain, locker, ac and one bathroom for each dorm with hot shower. There is a pool outside, common lounge area, indian restaurant, book swapping, board games, daily activities like movie night, surfing etc. They have laundry and a kitchen where you can cook your own food. You even get your own locker in the kitchen to store your food. Inside the locker you have your own plates and utensils and even a water bottle. The staff is really friendly and accommodating. Across the street you have a lounge area at the beach. You also get a free drink every night! This is the best hostel I have stayed in during my whole stay (3 months) in the Philippines (also the most expensive ;) but it is worth the money.

PhilippinesI don't know how to ride a motorcycle so I spent a lot of money paying tuktuk drivers to take me to General Luna. However, they offer free bicycles but General Luna is too far for that. Not the hostel's fault, though.
The hostel was clean, comfortable and serene so I had a wonderful stay. I stayed 4D3N at Bajala and would definitely come back. They have strong wifi everywhere so I was able to work remotely. The property is also facing the beach which I really love.

ChinaBest hostel ever. 15 min drive to town so you can still enjoy the night life in General Luna. Right in front of a beautiful &quiet beach, lots of areas where you can chill, very social and friendly vibe. The staffs are all so amazing and helpful, very friendly all the time. Clean and beautiful rooms, softest beds. They even send back your laundry within a couple of hours to your room? WTF, is this really a hostel?

SingaporeIt’s a little bit far from general Luna and cloud 9, but if you are searching for something more quieter and really comfortable it’s a great hostel.
It’s a beautiful hostel, clean, organized, in front of the beach. It has a nice pool and sun baths to chill either in the pool or at the beach. It has a kitchen, laundry service and a restaurant.

United KingdomOnly con that some would have issues with is that it is 3 km to GL. You need a bike to get around but motorbikes (cheap for a day's hire) and bicycles (free) are good quality.
Best hostel that I have stayed at in SE Asia. Period. Relaxed. Great staff. Great room for those video call and stuff you need to do online. Internet was super stable. super comfy beds. Will be even better when the bar opens!

It was more than what we expected. On arrival we were oriented by friendly staff. Not only was the facility aesthetically pleasing it was also clean and tidy. Overall we had a comfortable and pleasant stay.

United StatesRoom was right in front of the pool. There should be a curfew on use of the pool. There were people partying all night could hear noise loudly in room. Lack of working area in room. Could use a small writing desk (a bistro style table and chair would do) so guest don’t have to go to the restaurant/lobby to work. Lots of mosquitoes
Room was clean but lots of flying bugs crawling on the walls
