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.).

South KoreaIn the morning, I was woken up by the sound of chickens and activities from the street. Actually, I m a sensitive sleeper and these sounds are natural in the Philippine rural area. My four companions slept well and weren't bothered at all
It is a family owned property. The owner was so kind and helped with booking cars in a reasonable price. The staff were so friendly and helpful all the time. I could borrow some utensils. It is walking distance to the center. So if you are into many tour activities, this place is convenient. The price is inexpensive too. I would like to thank Kuya Teng, his wife, their son and the staff for the warmth and great accommodation. I wanna stay there again next time.

PhilippinesThe bathroom was a bit small and the shower curtain gets too wet when you shower and the water leaks onto the floor. So we always had water on the floor after our showers. The shower curtain doesn't have a plastic lining on one side to keep it dry.
Staff were great, accomodating and really helpful with info around the area. They let me use the fridge and microwave to heat up leftovers from dinners the night before. Super helpful with luggages.

BelarusThe room is very noisy because the hotel is located on a noisy street. There is no sound insulation and all the noises are very disturbing inside the room. Construction work is underway in the next building and you will wake up to the noise of a hammer drill and loud conversations of builders.
Although the breakfast is not big, it is very tasty. good location in the city.

GermanyWe would have appreciated a more thorough cleaning of the room and at least some noise insulation (the location is very central, but a lot of loud traffic drives past). The property could benefit from some maintenance (loose faucet, door knob of closet coming off, bathroom door difficult to unlock/open) and a more than basic breakfast.
It depends what you are looking for. If you are looking for an affordable, safe place close to El Nido downtown and beach, with a really good airconditioning this is for you. There are late checkout facilities, the towels were changed every day and the bed sheets were clean. Staff was nice and helpful and they organized a good van for onward travel.

RomaniaThe room had literally no ventilation and it was just smelling so bad from mold. I checked and the mold was starting to form everywhere in the room and in the bathroom. The bathroom had a window that couldn't be opened and NO ventilation system!!! The "double bed" was actually two twin beds together. Also noticed a huge cockroach going under the bed. The water pressure was so disappointing that it made the bathtub almost useless.
Close to city center, good pancakes in the morning and interesting system for choosing what to eat for breakfast, bathtub!

NetherlandsThe street is really noisy, and the room is not very well sound isolated. But we're used to sleeping with earplugs, so this wasn't a big of a deal for us.
The staff was very friendly. It's nice to arrive in a super clean room after a long trip. The breakfast in front of the room is also a big plus.
