How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Sadly we checked out before we stayed our first night and the room was swarming with mosquitos. In their defence, they brought a plug in to try and help but sadly we weren’t happy staying there. Fine if you’re ok with this and want a cheap option! But be wary if you’re not keen on bugs as the building is still under construction.
Nice enough rooms Good location near the centre of Phi Phi

We loved the location of the hostel. It’s just a 10-minute walk from the pier but far from clubs and bars, which makes it much more comfortable. The rooms were very clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. The staff were super attentive and helpful! I definitely recommend it.

It was a far walk from the pier about 15/20 minutes in the heat with backpacks on was hard, the bathroom did flood only a little as the shower draining was slow.
Such a great location about 5/10 min walk to the beach and shops. The lady next door does the best rotis!! Our room was very spacious, modern and clean.

Paint all peeling in bathroom, dirt and bugs too. Receptionist was lovely but the cleaner had to clean the other bed in my twin room as my friend had got it sandy and spilt a drink. While changing the bed she put all the dirty sheets on my clean bed and then got angry that I now needed it changing from her mistake as I don’t want to sleep in sand. She tried to just plump the pillows before I explained I needed it completely changed.
Beds were clean and comfy. Good air con

No daylight in the room, facing a wall! Couldn’t tell if it was day or night! Towels didn’t smell fresh and no face towels, just body towels. Interior worn out, especially bathroom.
Comfy bed and pillows. Great location - quiet but still 10 mins to ferry pier.

The air conditioning was very noisy and the view from the window was of green corrugated iron sheets. It's a 10 minute walk from the pier, as you get close there's a small stream or storm drain, which smells so bad I nearly threw up. To be fair the smell doesn't reach the actual hotel.
Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room.

The girls on reception Fon and Champoo made me feel very welcome, especially Fon who I chatted to more. They were really helpful and as a solo traveller it's great to make a connection with a place and for someone to take an interest in what you might say or where you are going (even if I do go on a bit lol). The Monkey Pad was great too, I was going to stay initially for 2 nights and ended up staying 6! Lagon krap
