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.).

United StatesThe rooms and bathrooms are quite outdated, some renovations would really bring the place up. They charge extra per hour for early check in which was a surprise for us, there was no communication from the hotel prior to arrival to inform us of this or anything else, after a full night of travel and little sleep this wasn't the best way to start our stay.
Great location, steps away from the main road but tucked into an alley so it's very quiet inside, very close to many restaurants and cafes. The rooms are spacious and the bed is very comfortable. The swimming pool is nice to freshen up and the outdoors are beautiful, lots of plants, trees, and flowers (but plenty mosquitoes, use bug spray especially once the sun goes down)

United StatesFirst, I would not recommend the Alona area. Overrun with tourists, many child vendors and overall kind of sad and not beautiful like other parts of Panglao. As far as the hotel, I think they can improve on cleanliness and overall attention to detail. The kitchen also needs some attention, like more than 3 cups for a 2BR unit. We had laundry items lost, cleaning that was supposed to happen but never did and a whole thing with one of the AC units getting replaced and the workers left a huge mess that no one bothered to clean up. The staff was very apologetic but ultimately a lot of that shouldn’t have happened to begin with.
The staff was helpful, the pool was nice. The 2BR unit was roomy and worked well for our group. There are many restaurants within walking distance. Decent price overall.

United KingdomLocation for us wasn’t the best although Alona Beach was lovely and only a 10 minute walk away. Rooms were a little dated and could have done with extra pillows for sleeping as quite flat. The pool was very nice although the steps needed a bit of attention / repair as felt sharp under foot along with a live cable for the lighting which was quite worrying.
Staff very welcoming and happy to help with everything. Any problems at all were sorted promptly. They helped us organise our trips and taxi back to airport.

Close to all amenities like airport restaurants and beaches.
