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.).

Verified reviewGreat location and beautiful rooms.
I was charged £100 more than what I had agreed through booking.com
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed our location and rooms. The additional charge is a 3% card surcharge for using a credit card, which is stated on our profile.

Verified reviewWay overpriced. The room is 2 star: noisy and the bathroom has drainage problems.
Non professional staff. They talk loud and ear loud music in their phones. I had to has them to be quiet at 7.30 am. Sometimes there was no one at the reception at nigjt.

Verified reviewClean, comfortable rooms. Excellent pool with comfy bean bags. Welcoming and attentive staff who were always helpful. The dive centre which was the reason for my stay was 5*s. Absolutely amazing.
Coffee at the breakfast was not the same as served in the bar which was a real shame.
Thanks for sharing your experience! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the rooms, pool, staff, and especially the dive centre. We also appreciate your note about the coffee — consistency matters, and we’ll pass this along to the team so breakfast coffee matches the quality you enjoyed at the bar.

Verified reviewExceptional experience from start to finish, from the staff to the location, everything was on point. First, the incredibly friendly team at reception allowed me to check in at 9:00 AM which I deeply appreciated after arriving exhausted and disappointed from another hotel on the island. They truly made my day. A special shout-out to Gani at the front desk - we had a great chat. They also kindly stored my luggage for a few hours after check-out. Second, the pool is cozy and inviting, the room was clean and spacious, with a properly functioning AC, a balcony, and a safe. They also offer a laundry service. Third, the location is excellent - there’s a bike rental right in front of the hotel and it’s just a short walk from the harbor. I highly recommend this place if you're staying on Gili T.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're thrilled to hear that our team—and especially Gani—helped turn your trip around from the moment you arrived. It’s great to know you enjoyed the room, pool, and convenient location. We’re always happy to offer early check-in, luggage storage, and extra services like laundry whenever possible to make your stay as smooth and enjoyable as we can. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Verified reviewThe staff was amazing, always helpful. They even gave us a praying mat to have in the room. It was clean and fresh, we got everything we asked for.
The wifi was actually bad, it didn't even reach to our room. The bathroom was quite dark, otherwise it's a great place!
Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're so happy to hear that our team made your stay comfortable and that you felt well taken care of — it’s great to know the little touches, like providing a prayer mat, made a difference. We appreciate your feedback about the Wi-Fi and lighting in the bathroom; these are important points and we’ll look into how we can improve them. We’re glad you still had a great stay overall and hope to welcome you back soon!

Verified reviewThis was perfect for our group of 4 friends. We got rooms right beside each other with a shared outside area which was perfect! The location is excellent and the staff were extremely friendly. The food here is gorgeous also. We ended up eating here at least once a day - sometimes even twice!
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad to hear that our setup worked perfectly for your group and that you enjoyed the shared outdoor space, friendly service, and delicious food. It’s always great to hear when guests choose to dine with us so often — that means a lot! We hope to welcome you and your friends back again soon.

Bad experience. The address on the reservation was incorrect, and we had to walk with our luggage to another location quite far away. The property ignored our WhatsApp messages, and once we arrived, they offered no apology or solution. We were also not allowed to pay through the app and were charged an extra 3% when paying by card, without any prior notice. Very unprofessional and poor customer service. I do not recommend this place.
Thank you for your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and the inconvenience caused by the address issue, lack of communication, and unexpected payment charges. This is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide. Your concerns have been noted and will be reviewed seriously with our team to ensure improvements are made. We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention.
