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.).

Some may be confused by the sounds of animals in the morning (roosters crow) and various insects in the area. and remember that the staff who appears at the hotel does not speak English - so be prepared to use a translator and communicate in English with hotel representatives through the WhatsApp number that you will find at the reception
a great place for a secluded holiday or with your group of friends, away from the noisy center. You will always have to use a scooter to get anywhere. Living in this hotel is like spending time in your own country villa among the locals

Turned up for shared dorm- all beds available had rodent droppings all over the beds, including on top of the folded ‘fresh sheets’ at bottom of bed. Didn’t even check in found another place.

Ben Guesthouse in Phu Quoc is a eclectic but charming spot with a relaxed, social vibe. The dorms are simple, the lush outdoor area is great for unwinding, and the friendly hosts make you feel welcome. A peaceful, budget-friendly retreat!

I forgot on my previous review. Unless they moved the Wi-Fi router.. it didn’t reach the very back room. I mentioned this to them. They said they would move this or fix this. I never stayed again after that. So let’s hope they fixed that or read this and fix it!
I rebooked this stay 5 times. The reviews are honest! Just decide and book it! Have a motorcycle for best access.

You’re right, you will want a motorbike if you stay here or need to walk a decent walk into the center.. many moto bike rentals when you arrive from the ferry.
Lovely vibrant colors - typically had the room all to myself after staying here for 10 days. Host doesn’t speak English but I also don’t speak Vietnamese so use a translator or add them on WhatsApp! Over communicate is the best practice if necessary. No extravagant amenities but a comfortable bed and atmosphere!

Nothing at all!
I really loved this place. It just made everyone chill out and take it easy. The main town 2 miles away may of been 100 miles away! There's a fantastic rear yard and kitchen to use with a nice big fridge for your beers. I rented my scooter from this hostel and I have to say they were amazing. I had a problem with my rear tyre.... Day after...new tyre in place!! Now that is fantastic service!

It's far from everywhere, even the city center. So a motorbike is a must. I am not sure why all the hostels are on the outskirts of the city center. Also there are no lockers. I was lucky they accomodated my laptop in someplace.
Nice cozy place. The owner is kind and speaks English well, i never saw her tho, only spoke on the phone. Clean showers. The place is big and so feels nice. There is a kitchen you can use for small cooking. The convenience store is just 1-2 kms away. For anything else, rent a motorbike.
