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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United KingdomThis area is next to a mangrove forest/swamp so the mosquitoes are very prevalent if that’s an issue for you. I don’t say this as a downer on the property just an advisory note. Not many bars/restaurants on the main road near to this hotel if you like to wander out at night. We visited The Irish Embassy (excellent bar for food and drink) who have live music on a couple of times a week which is about a 5 minute walk along the main road.
Very close to Phra Ae beach where there are some beach bars/restaurants. Lovely place to watch the sunset enjoying a drink/meal. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Don (I think his name was) speaks excellent English and is only a WhatsApp call away to arrange trips/taxi/moped and to sort out any issues which he did promptly on more than one occasion during our stay. We used the pool area at the complex next door and, we were told by another traveler, that you could also use the pool at the hostel next door but one but we didn’t use that one so can’t verify that. We weren’t in high season so not sure if this option is available when all the hotels are busy. If not you still have the beach and sea. Rooms are basic, showers not the best, but very clean have decent air con and mosquito nets. They will be serviced every day if you like. Breakfast is basic (eggs any way you like and fresh fruit) if you opt for it but saves going out to find somewhere to eat. Having said that when we went there was the Together Cafe next door where we ate once and it was excellent quality, very reasonably priced and served very nice coffee which can be hard to find in Thailand.

PolandPeaceful atmosphere, friendly and helpful people who run this place. Simply delicious breakfast, clean rooms. They even have laundry facilities and scooter rentals on-site, which is super convenient. It’s so close to the beach where we could enjoy stunning sunsets. Plus, there are plenty amazing restaurants nearby. Once you’re here, you don’t want to leave :)

CanadaThe only thing we didn't like was that the pathway back to the property was not lit at night.
We enjoyed the friendly welcome and atmosphere. it is a small property close to the beach. The rooms are well decorated and clean with a hammock and small table on a small balcony in front of each unit. We enjoyed the choice at breakfast. Don, the owner, was very friendly.

United StatesBass beats from parties every Tuesday (and some other nights). Bring earplugs!
We were very happy at Raven Blue and extended our stay from 3 to 6 nights. The beds were comfortable, the room was well-ventilated (no wet floors), and AC was cold. The hotel only has about 10 units so it's generally quiet and laid back. Quite close to the beach. Manager Don and his staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Breakfast is good with big portions. Units would be perfect with a table lamp, kettle, and sheer/privacy curtains (in addition to darkening curtains).
