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 KingdomThe wifi barely works which is a shame because the rest of the stay was perfect.
The property was clean and peaceful and the shower was hot. The location was only a short 5 minute walk from restaurants and local shops - but it’s a 10 minute tricycle journey to cloud 9 surf spot - you should pay no more than 40-50 pesos per person to get there. Neil was great and contactable via WhatsApp with any issues. The resident dog is such a sweetheart.

The location is good… very clean and quiet place at the center of Gen Luna. The owner himself was very accommodating and very helpful when had problem with the internet since we were working remotely he even came late at night just provide us different kind of modem for us to get a good connection. The care takers were very helpful too. We stayed at the hostel for 8 days.

Australiathey can add extra ammenities to the room like a TV or side tables. the aircon was noisy but it works if you’re looking for something basic yet affordable.
Although the room was very basic, the staff were all very accomodating to our needs as tourists. They organised airport transfers for us, gave recommendations for where we can rent motorbikes and have prompt responses whenever we requested for anything. the location is about a 10-15 minute walk to the bars and restaurants, but I especially loved that the hostel was closer to the local areas where we experienced Siargao life with the locals of the town away from the tourist spots.

PhilippinesThe pressure on the shower is very low....hard to take shower. They said the pump was broken....should fix it for the next guests. Also the persons attending are not very knowledgeable on places to visit in Siargao. As a recommendation, they should train or put someone who can be helpful to give tips to guests on where to go in Siargao.
I like the vibes of the cottage....its native feel and the space is just enough. The location is also good its in the centre of GL.

Switzerlandactually one of the top 5 of the dirtiest accommodations I have ever seen ... and I have seen a lot!
Big room with comfortable beds, which were clean enough if you are an adventure traveler. Shower with clean water; in GL, not too far from the center.

PhilippinesWhen we came nobody is in the reception area. Perhaps you could install a ring/bell so you would know there are guests waiting.
We were accommodated earlier than the checkin time since we arrived very early. Very kind staff.

SpainCleaning has to be improved. We have to ask for sheets because the only put on the pillow and we have to change because the was little hairs. Not stables plug A/c is working but was noisy and the wall and bed trembled and it was difficult sleep. Not toilet paper We told the staff we want a van to the airport at 04.00, but se said at 04.30 because of the airport was near. At this hour nobody came to us. Nobody answered WhatsApp. Nobody answered phone because was off. No body open the door we thought the boss was. A neighbor got.ip because of the noise we did and tried to help us. We thought we were going to lose the flight. The driver came at 05.00,.then she went to pick up a friend. We was going to the airport at 05.15. the doors opened at 05.55. It's not serious to have an hotel and switch off the phone.
What you see is what you pay. I mean, austere room with bed confortable. Price is ok. Not far.away port o restaurants( aprox 10.minutes walking) through streets with no light and no asphalted

LuxembourgWhen we arrived the room was full of ants, after we found also cockroaches..We booked the room for 5 nights and no one cleaned or change the towels. When the toilet paper was finished we were not even able to find the receptionist to get one new. Addinionally, the reception staff was not very helpful, it was the first time we were at Philippines and Siargao and they have no useful information. Even when we cambie back from a day out we were saying hello to the receptionist (one day that she was there and we did not get a reply back because she was watching the television. Honestly, there are a lot of hostels in Siargao and I do not think this one is valued for the money you pay. I would not repeat the experience.
The location was really close to the center of the island.
