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 reviewThe feel of being in the jungle and secluded was amazingly peaceful! It is gorgeous here and staff is very friendly and helpful. Loved it def would stay again! Very budget friendly and clean. AC great hot shower comfy bed so worth it for the price. The turtles, flowers and picking fruit off the tree were added bonus!
Be very careful when booking! Ask specifically which room you are booking as there are many confusing pix. Thought we booked a spacious apartment but ended up in a room upstairs which also had rooms above it. Did not want to climb steps but had no choice! Very disappointed but lesson learned on my part.

Verified reviewWe had two rooms on the first floor for four people. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were also spacious, though only a bar of soap was provided. Towels were clean and changed daily. The hotel is located on a road with limited lighting at night, so a torch is recommended. There are a few good eateries within a 10-minute walk.
Breakfast was basic but adequate to start the day. However, breakfast hours were restricted to between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. As a result, we couldn’t have breakfast on the last day, as we had a ferry at 8:00 a.m.

Verified reviewIt was a beautiful property! They had tortoises on the property that were very well taken care of. Definitely a highlight of the stay. It was very clean also! The staff was amazing and very accommodating!
The beds were not great. Very hard beds, but I am also very sensitive. The lighting was very bright and florescent. Beds and lights definitely need to be updated.

Verified reviewLa Modestie Guest House is a modest yet charming and tranquil place to stay. The bed and room were spacious, and the mattress was comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and the staff was very helpful. Conveniently located just a 5-8 minute walk from the bus stop, the guest house is easily accessible by bus, even when traveling with an 18-month-old. There's no need to take a taxi from the ferry port unless you arrive after 6 pm, as the buses stop running around that time.

Verified reviewThe rooms were big and beautiful, big windows , well lit also the washroom was very spacious. The aesthetic of the stay was very well done exactly the same as in the pictures. Restaurants, beach, supermarket, busstop everything was nearby.
1) AC was very far from the bed. So the cooling was never good. 2) The stay was few meters away from the main street which had no street lights. Hence without a car it's different to commute at night. 3) More lights are required in the room since it is big
