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 reviewLocation - it’s near the center with a lot of both affordable and luxury restos and bar but still maintains privacy. It’s also clean and the rooms are adequately spaced.

the air conditioning on the dorm room is not sufficient, or maybe the location of the aircon unit is not properly positioned.

Verified reviewFabulous location. Right in the centre of things and close to the beach but quiet at night. Really friendly staff, we decided to stay an extra night and they went to a lot of effort so we didn't have to change rooms which we appreciated so much. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was huge. Comfy hammocks and little bar area out front.

Verified reviewlocation is great, as it’s close to both the beach and restaurants. The staff were always friendly and greeted us with smile. You can even rent a scooter right at the hostel The room was small but clean, the bathroom was bigger than I expected. The air conditioning worked perfectly, although there was no TV, it wasn’t an issue at all. If I ever visit Moalboal again, I would definitely choose to stay here again!

Verified reviewI love the place. It’s our first time here. The one thing I hate about it is you guys never discipline other guests to shut their mouth early in the morning and you should actually include it to your house rules not to shut the door so loud whenever the come in and out because it is a public disturbance to other guests. I came there to relax but I didn’t expect that I’ll be dealing with a lot of noise from other guests outside the house. I believe respect comes from ourselves. I hope that won’t happen to your future guests. I understand if it’s noisy after 8:00am but 6:00am? That is not fair at all and they were cheering outside like the people from the squatters area. And by the way, your door knob at room 5 is broken and it’s really hard to open and close it. It was really annoying vacation.

Verified reviewLocation is super central and tucked away down a quiet road which gives you the best of both worlds. Staff were very helpful helping us book onto tours. Big bathroom area and clean room.
Our mattress on the bed was sunken in the middle

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved our stay at the Dreamcatcher Hostel. It is in a really great location that is close enough to the action but far away enough to feel quiet. There is a really nice outdoors area where you can sit and chill. The staff were super friendly and there were snorkels for hire. Good value for money!
Nothing in particular.
