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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

South KoreaThe shower didnt have proper hot water but as the weather is hot it is fine.
This place is very near from the whale watching point, you can either walk or take a motor cycle. The host was very kind and informative, she arranged an airport pick up car and also whale watching, and another taxi to go to my next destination. The whale watching guide came with a motor cycle so it was easy to move to the point. The room is not the most fancy one, but good for purpose if you just want to sleep few hours before going to see whales.

TaiwanI just need a place to crash before doing the whale shark swim. It’s 10min walk to the whale shark place, I left the guesthouse at 530am, got number w55, waited for half an hour, get everything done by 7am. Swimming with whale sharks is an incredible experience, they swim by/below you…they are huge and polite!

ItalyIt is very basic but as I said is okay for one night on the way to see the walesharks. Not strong WiFi in the room but working well in the common area.
The location is extremely convenient for whaleshark watching, you can walk there (less than 10 min walk) and just show up at the center and pay 500 php for snorkeling or 2500 for diving. The room is small and very basic but it is clean and it serves the purpose. There is also a kettle in the common area and toeleteries. Staff is very nice and friendly and arranged for us a very affordable taxi to Badian.

United KingdomNothing really to complain about. I would suggest also having some snacks on offer to buy, maybe crisps and peanuts.
The bathroom was always very clean. I loved that there was an inside lounge area plus a patio. The patio was a bit noisy certain times of the day due to traffic but I still enjoyed sitting out there on my laptop. Walking distance to the whale shark experience. Air-conditioning worked well. They have a few drinks you can buy without having to go into town, soft and alcoholic.

Helpful staff:) Possibility to book the ferry to Panglao with them. 5 minutes walk from the whale shark point. Super comfortable beds, and great quiet aircon. Clean bathroom, and nice warm shower. Nice balcony and waiting area. Located on the main street but in the room was very quiet. Good value for a cheap price:)
