Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesThey didn't seem to like our late arrival after 11:00pm. I think we woke him up. No one came to the door after we rang the doorbell 3x. If arriving late you need to call them. Restaurant not operating was informed needed to call a telephone number to order food at hotel restaurant. We did not have local phone. Short walk outside for food.
The staff was very helpful and friendly. They arranged for a tuk tuk driver to drive us to the whale watching site. (10-15 mins). He took care of us the entire time. He bought the tickets for us, came back to inform us it was our time waited for us to finish the activity. drove us back. most helpful. Good hotel to stay in for whale watching

United KingdomThe windows to the rooms open onto a covered corridor so no natural light.
Right on the ocean front, really clean, super friendly and incredibly helpful staff. The owner organised our whale shark diving and the driver/side was just brilliant helping us navigate the chaos at 4:30am. For a 2* hotel and a price of about £10 per person for a double room, it’s really amazing value.

AustraliaI wish resort accept payment straight from the booking portal online (w.g. Booking.com, trip etc).
I love the beach front view while you are eating your dinner or breakfast at their outside seating restaurant. The location is very close to the port going to Sumilon Island and Whale shark. The staff were incredibly polite and guests were well looked after. No small or big requests they can’t cater. Reception always there to answer all your query and helped when needed. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with this hotel. We can highly recommend this resort. Thank you.

The host is lovely and will take care of everything you need with a smile on her face, from tours to transportation to the port. The accommodation is simple but has everything you need. I will definitely stay there again if I come back to Oslob!

BulgariaRoom was basic (just table, bed and air-conditioning) but it was very clean, bed was comfortable and air-conditioning was functioning well. Nice spacious waterfront terrace (shared). Location is right on the water on a quiet street a minute walk from town center. Probably the nicest restaurant in town is just in front of the hotel.

New ZealandThis place was great, however if you’re staying in Oslob just for the whale shark watching, I’d probably recommend staying closer to Tan-Awan, as it’s a 15 minute drive away, which is a lot on a tricycle at 5-6am in the morning. The room was also large, but quite strangely set out (tv above the bed), and the shower in the bathroom points directly over the toilet.
The hotel is located right over the water, allowing you to walk down the steps, straight into the ocean. It’s also very close to the centre of Oslob town, so easy walking distance to restaurants and the 7-ELEVEn. The room was big and clean, with amazing air conditioning. The staff were really friendly and helpful, helping us to arrange our tour to see the whale sharks and providing advice on transport to our next destination.

AustraliaTV is located in a weird spot. Would have been nice to have access to the beach instead of a view.
Older property, but it's still clean and tidy. The staff and the owners are fantastic. Babe was very helpful in organising tours, pick-ups, and drop off's for as required. Babe and John were also very helpful when hiring a scooter for us to use. The accommodation is close to lots of cafes and restaurants, plus a large fresh food market. We enjoyed our stay.
