Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

PhilippinesThe matresses aren't the best, they were very soft.
There are a lot of great communal spaces, like a kitchen, a rooftop woth pooltable+bar and they are also building the swimmingpool area right now. The staff organizes an event every night, so there is a lot of oppertunity to meet fellow travellers. The rooms and bathrooms were also very clean!

Hong KongFacility and location are excellent. The staff is really nice and welcoming. They played a lot of table tennis, billiards, and karaoke with us. You can do a lot of activities here during rainy days, and you will also meet many new friends. The 24hr hot shower is a luxury item in the island. I enjoy my stay in Sunlit.

United KingdomEveryone was so welcoming and friendly. It’s located in a good area where all the main attractions can be accessed easily. All the workers were super kind and helpful throughout my time at Sunlit, especially Reg. She helped me book my ride to the airport when it was late and she should’ve been home. She also had amazing vibes and was happy to join in with some of the games. Very thankful and would definitely go again!

Though I was not able to join, I liked that they have different activities daily so everyone can meet and get together. Friendly staff for sure!

Friendly and warm atmosphere. Room was spacious but quite plain and could have been a bit more decorative. Location was good and staff were helpful.

PhilippinesIt more than my expectations.
I loved my 7 days in sunlit because it felt like home. From the owner who is very informative of the situation when the power cut off (i stayed for 7 days with the blackout in the whole island, thank God for the Solar Panels) to the amazing staffs mel,raf,reg and the ate's who maintain the cleanliness of the place was the highlight. Im a solo traveler but it felt like I had a family for a week in sunlit. I even cooked once breakfast with people I met in the hostel, it's a place to meet fellow travelers. They care and assist u with everything and the location is just perfect!

IrelandOne of the best hostels in Siargao for a reason. The staff are very welcoming and make a big effort to include everyone. There's something in every night from quizzes, to beer pong and family dinners. Great upstairs with a bar, table tennis, pool, darts and chill out area. Beds were comfy and very private. Shower and toilet area were private and well maintained. Aircon was good in the shared dorm. Social hostel without being a party hostel.

United KingdomThe only negative about the property was the motorcycle hire. The bikes weren’t all working properly, for example my speedometer was broken.
The beds were super comfy and spacious at Sunlit. I also loved how social the hostel was in comparison to the other hostels in General Luna. The staff were super friendly and there was events on everyday in the hostel.

United StatesThe staff was friendly and helpful. They made it a point to remember my name and say hi as I came and went. The bathrooms were cleaned frequently. There were lots of social events, like dinners, ping pong tournaments, and more. If you're looking for more social vibes, less party vibes, this hostel is the one for you. There's even a relaxing and chill second-floor social area. Lots of folks end up extending their stay, and I can see why.

I recently stayed at Sunlit Hostel and had a fantastic experience! The staff were incredibly nice and friendly, always ready to help with a smile. The internet was impressively fast, which made it easy to stay connected and get some work done. There were so many activities and things to do, both within the hostel and in the surrounding area, that I was never bored. From organized tours to social events, there was always something happening. The hostel offers great value for money, with clean and comfortable rooms at an affordable price. The common areas were well-maintained and provided a great space to meet other travelers. Overall, I highly recommend Sunlit Hostel for anyone looking for a friendly, fun, and affordable place to stay. I will definitely be coming back on my next trip!

Really enjoyed my stay here! The staff were all helpful and friendly. Quiet and peaceful tucked away from the busyness of the main tourism road area but close enough to the action. There’s a nice restaurant across the hostel perfect for brunch/lunch. If you don’t rent a motorbike, tuktuks frequently passed by the end of the road. Great WiFi connection and the solar panels worked well while other businesses in the area were impacted by the power interruptions that tend to happen on the island. A perfect balance between being a social and chill hostel - in the day, you’ll find guests working remotely or playing ping pong on the roof & in the evening, many people are playing pool, darts, ping pong, hanging out and drinking on the roof. Newly renovated bathrooms that the staff frequently clean were nice too.
