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.).

United KingdomWe booked a tour through the hostel and unfortunately it wasn’t the tour we booked at all, only went to around 4/10 sites mentioned. Still beautiful but was also 100PHP more per person that expected and felt very disorganised at the start.
Beautiful property, delicious restaurant and very comfy bed! Very helpful team when a request was made.

LuxembourgLoved loved loved my stay at Vedya! Booked 2 nights unaware that their restaurant is fully vegan and almost cried tears of joy :‘) Looking at previous reviews, this place only seems to attract the right crowd! I travelled solo but made friends on my first day and we had beers and a bonfire in the evening, went island hopping, surfing and partying together even after I left to stay at another hostel. Special shoutout to Bea for her hospitality and Jaja for being the best barista there is! Can‘t wait to come back already!

FranceMy stay in Siargao would not have been the same without Vedya :) Vedya is a peaceful oasis into the vibrant General Luna. The house is super beautiful, with great areas to chill, a clean and big kitchen, a very lovely and helpful staff. And the restaurant, the best (vegan) and healthiest food I found in my 4 months traveling with such a good vibe and amazing staff too. Will definitely come back here if I come back to this island!

SpainVedya was home for me. One of the best places I've ever stayed. The staff is amazing and they have a vegan restaurant where you can eat the best food on the island. I went just for 3-4 days and I stayed 10 (my entire trip in Siargao). So happy to share my time and energy in this place. Always surrounded by special people, cute doggies and nice palo santo smell. Can't wait to come back!

United StatesThe property is beautiful and so lovely to hang out in. One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed in. The staff and owners are super lovely and you’re treated as a friend the second you arrive. The cafe that the hostel is a part of is so tasty and has a very fun vibe. Highly highly recommend staying here, it was the best time!

New ZealandWas a nice open space and there was security but there were times that people would come to check out the hostel/ rooms.
Best hostel ever. It's a really nice space, with areas to relax, a kitchen, the best staff ever. Scooter parking, surf board parking, fresh cold water always available. I had bed also has a small shelf and light, always a privacy curtain. The attached cafe is the best on the island I'd say! I couldn't say enough good things about this place.

GermanyNothing to complain! To make the stay even better, it would be great to place some yoga mats in the common areas for some after surf stretching :)
- Very cozy place, baskets help to store things and make you feel at home - great atmosphere and chill people - Bea was very sweet and helpful - vegan restaurant attached to the Hostel is one of the best on the island - often there were tasty bananas and pan de coco in the kitchen area

New ZealandUnfortunately had a power outage that meant we had to move to another guest house for one night, not the greatest but out of their control and they made sure we had somewhere to stay free of charge while it was fixed.

BelgiumI want to make something very clear. this is not just a place where you go to eat or sleep or just come for a coffee. this is a place where you come to make memories. where friends and smiles are shared. Vedya is a home for everyone who is ready to open up. I made friends for life and stories that I will tell for years to come. everyone who works or volunteers in Vedya is ready to help you with open arms. the rooms are cleaned every day and the food is freshly made at your doorstep. I can only give you two tips: stop looking for other accommodation because you have already found it and secondly, open up to these wonderful people and you will be rewarded with a flood of beautiful memories.
