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...).

FinlandThe accommodation is located outside of the town center, along a road that is poorly illuminated at night. It's not too far from the center by foot, but you have to be careful of the speeding tricycles. Lots of ants in the room and mosquitoes in the courtyard. A little pricey for what you get but that's often the case in the Philippines.
The host is polite and helpful, always smiling. We could book an island hopping tour and a minivan transfer to Puerto Princesa through the hotel. The accommodation is as depicted, even though the pictures look a little more fresh than the actual state of the room. Free drinking water is a big plus.

United KingdomWe cannot rate Ysabelle's Inn highly enough, we stayed in a number of different accomodations in El Nido after being stuck there by bad weather and this is probably our favourite. The rooms are clean, very comfortable, great AC and fan. Bathroom does the job. We loved the location, it was quiet enough at night and easy to walk to town. The owner is lovely and helped arrange a number of tuk tuk pickups for very fair prices and always reliable. She also went out of her way to try to help when our expedition was cancelled in alternative boat options. The breakfast is recommended too for the price, fresh and very tasty. El Nido accommodation is generally overpriced v the rest of the Philippines but this place is really good value for money and gives you everything you need.

NetherlandsIt’s not in the centre but a short walk / or short ride with a scooter/trycicle.
We really liked the new studio room we stayed in. It was big (a lot of space) and had everything we needed (kitchen, terrace, good wifi, a comfy bed). Also the area is really quiet! And in just a 10 minute walk you are in the busy centre of El Nido.

A basic and quiet room just 10 minutes outside El Nido city proper. The room is super clean and has a mini-safe and water kettle. Host Elizabeth is a fantastic host. She arranges everything like tours and transport. She's nice and easy to talk to. The room was cleaned every day and there are some restaurants near by if you want to eat near by. I had a few wonderful days.

United KingdomThere was no kettle in the room, no bath ( as per description) and the shower gel/shampoo were sparse. The photos are not representative of the downstairs. It's very much away from the main area of El Nido, in fact it's cut off at high tide, the dark 1km walk down the narrow road at night with speeding tuk tuks and scooters is not great.
Friendly staff.
