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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

PhilippinesThe location is near the public market, banks and all other necessities. But the beach is one trycicle away to San Juan beaches. I thought it's walking distance to the beach. San Fernando beaches are not accessible to public. It's private residences area as per the staff. I had to take a tryke to San Juan if I need the beach.
The staff and the facilities are okay

PhilippinesThere were few people. Although there was a game room, and pool area, and lots of places to watch the sunset and enjoy ourselves, I only saw 2 other people.
This is the perfect hostel; they thought of everything! Every dorm bed has a light, outlet, mirror, privacy curtain, and half of it is enclosed with a wood barrier. Every locker ( there are more than one for every person) is large, and has a mirror. They even have a changing room with hooks in all the dorms so you don't have to wait to go into the bathroom, or sneak change. It is the perfect location with a swim beach-Pagdaraoan, 50 meters away ( though it is not the best, white sand, friendly locals, and clean safe water. )It is a 5 minute walk to the night food market, and Ma-Cho Taoist Temple. Best of all, if you want to catch a 15 peso Jipney ride ( about 20 min/5km) to San Juan surfing beach it is just up the road 5 minutes. Also, if you are solo, like me, a 30 peso Jipney will take you just 9km from the famous Immukil island close to Occalong Falls-just 150 peso trike ride. I walked to Pindangan ruins, though it is a 100 peso trike ride. I also walked to Alcapulco beach where you can chill in a cabana, or just hang and watch the sunset and enjoy crystal clear water all the way out to the reef. There is also snorkeling and scuba diving there. Everything less than a 40 minute walk, or 100 peso ($2) trike ride. The hostel has a pool, and great dining area. I enjoyed the breakfast, and the facilities have 4 floors all with great views.

Saudi ArabiaWe did liked all amenities indeed.
Relaxing, quiet and good privacy. Staff were very accommodating and helpful with all our requests, food were delivered to us despite staying at 4th floor, we also had an assist for carrying multiple luggages to our room. My husband and I loved the dipping pool, absolutely enjoyed the view. Great advantage on the internet connection (200+ mbps for the upload and 150+ for DL) which allowed me to do my remote work while on a vacay.

PhilippinesEverything was so nice and has good value for its price, I just wish that the water flow in the bathrooms were stronger so that guests can take a bath with more ease.
The rooms and the capsule beds were all clean, the room was also comfortable, all the lights and electric sockets were working well. It is a good touch that each capsule bed has its own light, sockets, mirror, curtain enclosure, shampoo, soap, towel and beddings. The free breakfast was nice, I chose Bangsilog. The staff were very kind to serve it at the roof deck upon our request. They also have water dispensers nearby where guests can refill their tumblers.
