Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

ColombiaI didn't like that it's so neglected because they have an incredible place, but being so neglected doesn't give a good impression. They could improve the lighting, remove damaged items, and maintain the social area. They could organize the entrance area as a co-working space so that travelers can sit and work. Good scents.
It has an excellent location and a very spacious area, the beds are comfortable, I was able to rest, it was a good stay.

AustraliaI have never written a negative comment before but I feel this was so bad others need to know what they are paying for. Our room was dirty, especially the bed sheets and all of the pillows - so much so that my partner woke up with a rash in the morning. The fly sheet attached to the bed was filthy and full of holes with a massive stain right above our heads, and there were numerous stains all over the cushions. The bathroom was large but again, not the cleanest and there were absolutely no amenities provided - no soap or showergel, we even ran out of toilet roll and we only stayed one night! No wifi details were provided even though this was listed in our booking and upon arrival we were told breakfast would come at an additional cost even though this was also meant to be included, which led to some frosty reception from the host who did not warm up during our stay. We decided to have breakfast out anyway as we caught a glimpse of the kitchen which was also filthy and was full of rubbish beneath the counters. Finally, the building on a whole is very old so although there are some amazing artworks and engraving within the architecture, all of the areas are so ill maintained that when we hung our clothes out to dry on the drying rails provided on our balcony, they were all stained the next morning by a mysterious substance that leaked from the roof (it hadn’t rained). We took them to a laundry service the next day and the stains still haven’t come out which has ruined some expensive items of clothing. We got a 50% discount for this booking and it was still expensive compared to other places we’ve stayed in Bali and other value stays in the area - we were severely ripped off and would score lower than 1.0 if we could. I really hope management will read this, with some deep cleaning and minor maintenance the property could be incredible.
The only redeeming part about this stay was the location which is extremely central to Ubud but surprisingly quiet the minute you turn onto the side road.

United States of AmericaHowever, the place is too dirty. The room always smelled terrible. The bed sheet was disgusting. I threw away their pillow and used my travel pillow instead. I bought a sarong and put it between me and their really thin "blanket". The room temperature was set at low temperature which is not the hosts' fault but my roommates but I didn't complain to change. so it was difficult to sleep with the smell and the cold. I had a sore throat every morning I woke up.
The location is perfect, in the center of everything. They have a Balinese-style pool which adds characteristics to the hostel.

PolandReally smelly and filthy. I have been staying in hostel for 11months and this has been so far the worst I have ever stayed in. When I arrived the receptionist didn’t even greeted me. He asked me: “are you paying now”? Don’t do the laundry there. I feel it’s not even cleaned. Moreover, I told them I needed for early afternoon (I left it the day before in the afternoon) they said 5pm and it wasn’t ready by then. I had to keep pushing to get it ready.
It’s walking distance to the restaurants and coffee shops

IndonesiaEverything! The staff hardly said hi to me or welcomed me. Couldn't understand me or didn't believe I was staying at the hostel. There were no clean sheets, mots in my bed bunk, no towels or toiletpaper. Never again. I've been in far better hostels for the same or less money.
The one guy who made me feel welcome when he was cleaning the room. The price, but you literally get a place to stall your suitcases and a bed to sit on for that amount.

TurkeyThe Wi-Fi almost never worked and the connection was horrible when it did. The pillows and beds at this hostel are so dirty and smelly!!! It was shocking to see that the staff NEVER washed the bed linen/sheets! Whenever a guest left and checked out, I watched them straighten out the sheets and leave them for the next guests! It was unbelievable! I had to put a towel over my pillow just so I could sleep because the smell was so bad! One of the girls got a skin rash because the sheets were so dirty from never getting washed!!!
Good location, near all the restaurants, bars, and cafés. Walking distance to Monkey Forest. The staff could be friendlier and more helpful. Big pillows and beds with curtains. Big lockers to put your things (if you can find the locker key). The air con was very good. Very social atmosphere at this hostel. Easy to meet other travelers. Bathroom had hot water for shower and good water pressure. There is a water dispenser in reception area where you can fill your water bottle for free.
