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):
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.).

The owner and other staff member were so welcoming and polite. They shared local knowledge and were super friendly throughout my stay. This made the place feel like a home from home. The music they play is super relaxing too, just a really nice atmosphere. If I visit Gili T again I'll definitely stay here.

ItalyThe best banana pancake of the island! The hostel is in a quiet place (except for the 5am prayer of the mosque) and the personal is extremely friendly and accomodating. At this price is the best you can find on this island.

AustraliaI think it is reasonable considering the price, but the water in the shower is not very warm. Also, it is quite close to a mosque so you will likely be woken at 5am, but we fell asleep soon after so it is really not an issue.
I love the colours and interior and energy here, and that the host plays soft jazz in the morning. The room is comfortable and has good air con. The hosts are very welcoming and warm. Tasty pancakes and coffee provided in the morning too! And a cute kitty roaming around :) Also very close to the harbour, so you can walk here once you get off the boat (and spare those tortured horses a trip - please do all your travelling by foot or bike; the island is not that big!!)

GreeceNo temperature adjustment at the shower and no curtain around it, so the water just goes everywhere. This is a mild inconvenience and nothing too important. The mosque is in close proximity but the owner is upfront about that from the beginning, so no surprises there. Also, the island is so small, so you will hear the mosque pretty much from every location.
Great location close to the harbor but in a quiet and tree-shaded little street away from the central road noise. The staff were honest and kind and helped out with everything needed. The private room was spacious and the bed large and comfortable. AC worked well.

AustraliaNo complaint. Not one.
Owner/manager was very welcoming and his calm demeanour plays no small part in the overall sense of peacefulness the hostel's atmosphere has. Very nice guy. Bit of a Bib Marley vibe maybe? Without the rasta. Great conversationalist. Fluent in English. As much potable water, hot tea and coffee as you can drink provided self-serve. A nice hot banana pancake served free in the morning with syrup to top it with. Very appropriate if you're planning to go scuba diving, snorkeling or to catch a ferry out. Loved how this place had me wanting to stay longer.

ItalyCandra the host made you feel welcome from the very start. I am traveling with heavy backpacks and he came to the pier to help me to carry everything to the hostel, since there are only bicycles and horse chariots allowed on the island so no grab. This place has great sea vibes, the dorm has only three beds making it very easy to socialize. Candra will tell you everything you need to know about Gili T, and other places in Indonesia since he has traveled around for long, and will tell you what tour is more convenient according to you budget and your persona. Will come back to this lovely island and awesome stay.

United Kingdom- we faced x2 early morning power cuts which meant we were unable to shower before heading out for the day due to the water pressure hooking up to the electric - no hangers in the wardrobe - a small table and chairs/desk would be preferable in the room as we had to place everything on the floor
What an absolutely incredible stay at the house hostel, hosted by Candra and his friend. We stayed in the double room, the bed was so comfy, the room a massive size and we loved the balcony. The banana pancakes every morning were soooooo tasty. Candra is such a genuine soul with kindness in his heart to make sure everyone has a memorable and comfortable stay. He invited us on a sunset hike up the hill and we spoke about anything and everything in life, which was wholesome. We will always remember our stay in Gili T, not only because it’s a beautiful island but because Candra left such a mark in our travelling memories!
