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.).

Social hostel: they organise daily activities which makes it easy to get to know other travellers. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! The rooms and facilities are nice and clean. Good location, the beach there is more beautiful and less crowded than in the city. You can watch the sunset from the bar!

SwitzerlandMany young people, so if you like to go technical diving, You better go some places close to Tabanka diving center (more quiet places for recovering). So for party and sexy vibes, the perfect place (OUTPOST).
Best personal/crew, good vibes only =)

GermanyWhat can I say… if you want an unforgettable hostel experience then you should choose Outpost. I only stayed for 2 nights, but my stay was so lovely. Rooms are decent and spacious, beds are comfy, you got lockers and privacy curtains, a clean bathroom. The location is alright, you would have to take a tuktuk if you wanted to head to El Nido town, however the hostel is right at the beach, so no complaints there. The staff - you feel right at home because of all of the staff. It’s a pretty social hostel, with events like karaoke/bbqs/beerpong every night! The atmosphere feels really cosy, the staff will sit and chat with you about life and whatnot, making you feel welcome. They remember your name and always greet you with a big smile. Big recommend staying here!!!

New ZealandThe hostel itself is down some steep stairs and along the beach front which we got a bit confused on how exactly to get there! So be aware if you have a suitcase. Also a bit far out of main city/crowds but easy enough to get a tuk tuk into central town (150 pesos). Bartenders/staff got drunk, got our drink orders wrong and were still expected to pay for it. Can be quite loud on karaoke nights as could hear a bit from the dorm rooms.
Island tour was great and crew was amazing! Staff at hostel are more than happy to help where they can. We stayed in four bed dorm and had enough space while respectful to others in room.

United KingdomQuite a busy hostel with lots of coming and going but it meant we met lots of people.
Amazing location! Right on the beach so had beautiful sunsets and ocean view. The town isn’t super nice so it was good to stay about 5-10 mins out (tricycles are always outside and about 150 peso to get into town) so this was great. Lots of restaurants nearby to walk to and vanilla beach about 10 mins via trike. Was so glad to stay somewhere so beautiful. The staff were super friendly and made you feel so welcome. Also really helpful and able to book all excursions through them which was great to meet people. Common area is so nice, amazing food and drinks served all day so good to chill in then always something social going on in the eve which helped with meeting similar people. Rooms were good, we stayed in a 4 person dorm which had ample space, AC and comfy beds. Bathrooms were also always clean.

United KingdomA small point but one worth mentioning. Outpost has no water dispenser to re fill bottles and forces you to buy plastic ones for more than they cost in a shop. A good way to squeeze profit but goes against the rest of Palawan where everywhere else discourages or even bans all single use plastic.
Nice hostel right on the beach 10 mins drive from El Nido centre. Events every night, fun staff and very social. Good facilities and good food.

The place was clean with lockers for our staff, they have hairdryers downstairs if youd need, they also let me stay last day until night and gave me towels to go to the beach and have a shower till I was waiting for my plane. Will definetely come back.

I love that it’s right by the beach! The staff are so friendly and very accommodating. There’s also an activity every night so it’s always fun! The dorm rooms are soundproofed so you can’t really hear the party downstairs which is nice if you want to have a chill night in 😅
