How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewI stayed at the dorm which has single beds, quite different from hostels dorms but I loved it. Location is out of the bustling city center, you need to walk around 10 min to the main places for diving, activities or restaurants but it worth it because this makes the hostel to be less noisy. I met nice people staying there. Staff is so nice and helpful with activities around and transportation. You have some cutie kittens around and that’s lovely. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. AC is kept whole day in 24 degrees and makes the space to be super easy to handle with the heat and humidity you have outside.
Maybe cleaning more frequently the toilet which is shared by 9 people would be a great thing. There is an available kitchen but if you use the stoves, they charge 100 pesos. No sense for me…

Verified reviewThe staff at reception were very helpful.
The room had holes in the wall and no proper closed off window in the bathroom meaning that mosquitoes filled the room at night. Despite being off a side street the neighbourhood was somewhat loud with karaoke machines blasting at night! This hostel was also difficult to find with many tricycle drivers not knowing where it was!

Verified reviewWe had a double room, and for the price, it was exceptionally worthwhile. The service was wonderfully helpful, the room (and washroom) were clean, and the price was excellent; what more could one desire? It is definitely a recommended place to stay.

Verified reviewClean and cozy room. Comfortable bed. The shower had good pressure. Shared kitchen available to prepare your own food. Water refill station. Kind and welcoming staff.
Air con extremely loud. We ended up sleeping with the AC off because of the noise and the room got pretty warm, leading to poor sleep quality. Walls are not well insulated so you can hear all the noises from outside and the people talking in the adjacent room.

Verified reviewGreat hostel in Coron, located just outside the centre in a quieter area. The private rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff are very friendly and help with any questions. There is a little area outside rooms to dry items ect. We experienced one power cut but it was fixed with an hour so no issues. There is air conditioning and a fan. Great value for money. There’s also a kitchen space to store and make food.

Verified reviewRoom was clean WiFi was good
The transit from the airport was a disaster. It took almost three hours from the time we met the driver until we arrived at the hotel. The driver said he was just waiting for another plane and that it would only take 20 minutes. In reality, we ended up waiting for two hours, and since we were dropped off last, the entire transfer ended up taking three hours. It’s absolutely ridiculous to make guests wait that long without clear communication. We wouldn’t have minded waiting up to an hour, but three hours is unacceptable. When we checked in, we explained the situation to the lady at the desk. She gave us 100 pesos off the transfer cost, but honestly, they shouldn’t have charged us at all. Mistakes can happen, but the staff didn’t do anything to truly make up for it. They should have informed us properly about the delay so we could have arranged a different transfer ourselves. The air conditioning was so loud that it was impossible to sleep, even with earplugs. We are used to ACs being noisy, but this felt like trying to sleep under a machine. Since it’s so hot, sleeping without the AC wasn’t an option either. Because of this, we decided to leave after the first night. Again we told the staff bud they didn’t seem to want to make anything right
We're not gonna say anything you know the whole truth :) have a nice day!
