Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

IndiaCraft Hostel was the perfect base for my Goa trip. Loved the artistic decor, laid-back vibe, and super friendly staff. The common spaces are great for meeting people, and it’s in a great location close to cafes and the beach. A real hidden gem!

United KingdomNothing not to like. It was perfect.
I really enjoyed staying at Craft Hostel. Abhi was the perfect host who was always on hand to help out. The room and communal area were very comfortable and clean and the location was perfect, within walking distance to the beach, shops etc but in a quiet area. I would not hesitate to book this hostel on my return to Anjuna or recommend it to my friends.

The staff were amazing and so helpful! The hostel was right at the start of the flee market and 3 min walk from the beach. After 4 days, we were upgraded to a Cabana for the rest of our stay and it was perfect. The common areas are also clean and very beautiful. Despite being very close to the beach/beach clubs/market, the hostel was very quiet and calm ! The staff helped us to rent a bike for a couple of days and were just great the whole stay. Our room was cleaned every other day and we had a small kitchen which was great. I definitely recommend this hostel !

NetherlandsNo activities organised by the hostel at all. Also, not easy to get a taxi around this place. I had to either pay 4x the price, or walk for 40 min till the other side of the beach where the Main Street is to get a taxi using Goa Miles.
Clean, looks like pictures. I booked the biggest room they have, was comfortable.

NetherlandsThe room has thin walls and is not soundproof. So if you are not a deep sleeper this might be a problem.
The host, Abi, is very welcoming. He told us so much about Anjuna, where to eat, what to do, where to buy and facts about Goa. He didn’t just tell us about Anjuna but also other places in Goa where we are heading. We could just ask anything. The atmosphere in the hostel is very relaxed. The hostel is also only 3 minutes walk from the beach. The room we stayed at is very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The bed is very comfortable.

I had a fantastic experience at Craft Hostel! The location is perfect—close to local attractions and transport. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, always ready with recommendations. The hostel has a great vibe, with plenty of opportunities to meet other travelers. The rooms and common areas were clean and comfortable, and the amenities (like free Wi-Fi and a well-equipped kitchen) made my stay even better. Overall, a great value for the price, and I’d definitely stay here again!
