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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesAs most places are on the island, it’s close to loud mosque, but we slept better the second night. The hotel changed hands around a year ago and is still being renovated. Would have been helpful to have another table or two in the room, but we just moved the one in the balcony instead for our stay.
For it being a relatively inexpensive hotel/hostel, it was a 10 for us. The staff is super nice and attentive. Bed is comfortable. Room is good size. Liked having balcony with two chairs and a table. It’s definitely not a party hostel and they foster a mellow vibe with soothing music. It’s in quiet area, but only about 10 minute walk to main road on east coastline with tons going on. Definitely consider the night market for low cost grilled seafood that was very tasty.

The owner was absolutely amazing, he took a few of us staying there for a sunset hike over the hill to the west side of the island, telling us some history along the way and recommending bars, food places and offered help organising boat transfers and activities. He also made everyone banana pancakes in the morning and introduced us to his two resident cats

ItalyEverything was great.
I would 100% recommend this hostel, it really made my holiday in Gili Islands much more special. I felt immediately welcomed, breakfast was the best start of the day, water and tea available all the time was pretty great too. It's close to everything but far from the noise of clubs and bars. The room was cozy, clean and had everything I needed. Last but not least, the staff are great, Candra is really friendly and helpful, with great tips about tours and about Indonesia in general, as he's been a tour guide for long time. I knew about the proximity to a mosque when I booked but I didn't really mind, as I often sleep with earphones and got used to it while travelling in Indonesia.

AustraliaWe really enjoyed our stay with Chandra. The rooms were lovely and clean, and not a far walk to the main beaches/attractions. We looked forward to the banana pancakes every morning, and had a constant supply of water/coffee for free- which was very convenient. Chandra took us for a nice sunset walk with the other guests and we had a great night. He also gave us great local tips like where to spot turtles and booked our snorkelling trip for us. We were very happy with our stay and are looking forward to returning.

AustraliaThe location is good very close to the main street. The room was tidy and clean. The breakfast is just a pancake, but deliciously homemade, thick and tasteful, good enough to start your day. Free coffee and Tea outside the room, also free water. Chandra, the manager, organised everything for us, one excursión for seeing the sunset together with the hostel guests, introducing each other. Snorkeling day, laundry service, ferry back to Bali, and bicycle rental, at a competitive price. He is helpful and treats his guests to make them feel at home. Definitely, a place to come back to, and I highly recommend trying it on your first stay in Gili Trawangan.

GermanyYou can hear the prayers of the mosque quite loudly (but this is difficult to avoid in the island)
I can't stress how nice (and interesting!) the owner Candra is. It is not a party hostel and yet you don't miss the socializing aspect as you delve into laid back conversations with Candra and other visitors. The room itself was also comfortable and the breakfast was also decent. If you're looking for a small getaway from party hostel, this is a place I recommend!
