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 reviewNothing. It was the worse place that I’ve ever stayed.
I don’t even know where to start. If you’re thinking of staying here, please don’t make the same mistake I did. RUN and find a better place, preferably anywhere that’s not Oslob. If you can stay in Moalboal, I highly recommend it instead. This place calls itself a “hotel” but it doesn’t even meet the standard of a hostel. First, when we arrived, the staff had a terrible attitude. We never felt welcome. When we entered the room, we noticed a large yellow stain, about 30 cm in diameter, clearly visible on the bed sheets (right next to the pillows). We told the staff, and although they didn’t apologize, they did replace them. Later, while we were lying on the bed resting from the trip, I saw a spider crawling on my chest. I killed it, but it was a very unpleasant moment. There were cobwebs everywhere. Clearly, cleanliness is completely neglected in this place. Now for the worst part: my boyfriend and I had ordered a pizza and were eating in the room while planning the next days of our trip in the Philippines. Shortly after, I noticed a HUGE COCKROACH walking on the bed, heading toward the empty pizza box. My boyfriend moved the box to the desk, and while trying to find a way to kill the cockroach, it crawled into the box by itself. He took the box with the cockroach inside to the receptionist, told her what had happened, and with the worst attitude, she didn’t even apologize and just said she didn’t know what we expected her to do. After arguing for a while, my boyfriend asked if she at least had some insect spray in case more appeared, and she handed him one (they had many on the kitchen counter, take from that what you will). Then my boyfriend started spraying the edges of the room and discovered a hole near the desk: it was a nest. As soon as he sprayed inside, cockroaches started coming out. He went back to reception to complain again. She came to the room, NEVER apologized, and with a disgusted face still gave us no solution.

Verified reviewA nice terrace (for breakfast) at the back of the hotel with steps leading down into the sea. Egg , hot dog and toast for breakfast Comfy bed. Clean room. Sea view was minimal! You could just about glimpse the sea over a roof! Small room. Good value for money.
Shower was very poor flow and could hardly even get wet! Air con was struggling and only just making the room cool enough. Motorbikes hired at the hotel for 500PHP were not in good condition (seat did not shut properly, poor brakes) and only a bike helmet available. Be aware that there is not much in the area for tourists. Le Bistrot was a good place to eat.
