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 reviewProbably one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in! Very comfortable and clean. Perfect location, near to the beach and lots of bars/restaurants. The staff are so friendly and keep the place very clean and tidy. Having breakfast included is also a benefit. They very kindly helped with a lift back to the ferry on my final day. Would definitely recommend!

Verified reviewThe staff were helpful and friendly. The vibe of the hostel was chill. The location is great and we easily got around. There were great restaurants and cafes nearby. We did extend our stay an extra night
Two peoples access card did not work for the properties outside door after hours but when we were informed the staff, they were apologetic and provided replacements cards.

Verified reviewI stayed in the private room, great facilities, large and clean. Staff are exceptional, kind and patient. Four of the nights it was really quiet despite being close to the nightlife. You can set the AC to come on when you are out so you return to a cool room.
On my final night one of the bars must have cranked its music or got a new bass speaker and whilst not loud it was audible. Noise cancelling earphones and some white noise sorted it for me. There is no balcony or outside space and the windows are quite high but this meant you effectively had a blackout room at night which was great.

Verified reviewThe staff is just incredible. They are very kind, helpful and generous. I really loved staying there because it is also very clean and quiet, and of course, the breakfast is more than good. After being traveling for two months, this place added magic to Koh Tao. Highly recommended.

Verified reviewClean, new (1-year old) hostel with friendly staff and nice facilities. Great complimentary breakfast (coffee, toast, eggs if you get them early enough before they run out, peanut butter and jam, fruit). Common areas and bathrooms were cleaned constantly throughout the day. Good AC in the rooms at night, comfy beds.
Part and parcel of being in the center of the action on Sairee, but there are a number of bars nearby that may play loud thumping music on several nights (they usually stopped at ~1-2am though), if you are a light sleeper this may be a bit inconvenient. I also think the music may be more audible from some rooms vs others so depends on where you are sleeping.
