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 like how the staffs are very accommodating such as being open to making conversations, asking for what we need and we are very much good to use the kitchen. The surroundings is very peaceful and close to the center of the spots.
One of the staff told that the one of the kubo is standing for about 10 years, It is obviously not in a good shape since it not sturdy when you go upstairs but it is understandable. Moreover, I like the accommodation since it not that much hot even the fans are off.

Verified reviewI liked the location- it was tucked away while being in the centre of everything. The staff were really nice!
The holes on the floors meant my stuff kept getting stuck under the property.

Verified reviewI loved it being located within jungle. I stayed in a hut which felt special. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly.
The only thing is to be wary of the noise of wildlife starting at 5am until 8am ish. So very beware if you’re a light sleeper.

Verified reviewReally nice calm place. Location is great, up the hill but only 3 min from all main places. There's a lobby where everyone can hang, and only 1 dorm room, so easy to get to know people. Really nice atmosphere, got to give it a chance. Toilet & shower is on the outside but super clean always, and 2 of each, with good quality toilet paper provided.
No a/c but it was ok with lots of fans. No towel is provided.

Verified reviewNice and quiet place. Not far from the main road with all the restaurants. Amazing breakfast! The host is super nice and ready to help with everything <3

Verified reviewNice bamboo huts in a lush green garden. A bit off the main road and therefore quieter.
Bamboo huts naturally don’t provide any sound proofing. You can hear everything from outside or the neighbors, and I assume it’s the same for them. Just something to be aware of. You kind of need a scooter to get around compfortably, they conveniently rent scooters there.

Verified reviewWe had a really great time here. The hostel itself is clean, immersed in lush greenery but very close to the beach. The common area is also great, and the facilities are good. There's free water and coffee and plenty of space to relax and socialise with other travellers. The hostel is also situated in a very convenient area to explore all Siquijor has to offer. The family who own the place were extremely kind, helpful and accommodating and made us feel at home. The dorms are very basic (no curtains or much space to store things) but clean. Overall really good value for money.

Verified reviewI liked my cosy hut on stilts and the seating area underneath. The bed linen and towels smelt clean and fresh. The room had a small bedside lamp which made it feel cosy and atmospheric at night. I received a very warm welcome from the lady at reception who continued to be lovely and friendly throughout my stay. The other staff members were nice too. It was good to have use of the kitchen as well as free drinking water to refill my bottle.
If you are prepared to be quite tolerant of local neighbourhood noise, such as music, motorbikes and construction, you will be fine as the huts are right next to the road. Fortunately it is not too busy and nighttime is quiet. One of the shower heads needs de-scaling or replacing as barely any water comes out. But you can use the bucket instead!
