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.).

IndiaI did not like the floor setup and the and the inconvenience of the aur conditioner location and working.
I liked the location the most. The property is behind the Dashashvamedha ghat which makes it very easy and convenient to attend the world famous Ganga Aarti. Also, this location is near to the Kashi Vishwanath temple gate no 2. This gate is less crowded so best to have the start here. The owner is polite but the dormitory was at the 4th floor. That's really hard to imagine your parents there due to the improper stairs system.

IndiaMy recent stay at the dormitory was characterized by its prime location in the heart of the city. However, beyond this advantage, the dormitory offered little else in terms of standout features. With basic amenities, it's ideal for travelers seeking a simple place to rest after a day of exploration.

IndiaI had booked a bed in non-ac dormitory. It was a closed room with six bunk beds, although they had installed small fans at every bed, it was little suffocating and to be honest there were mosquitoes. They should also install a large fan along with small fans. No windows and hence no ventilation. Even the exhaust fan of the bathroom was facing inside the room. I mean how is this working. Anyway got this deal at 360 INR, so booked it but only for one day.
Bathroom was clean and had jet spray. Staff was good and room was clean.

IndiaThe room felt a bit congested to me, and washroom could have been cleaner and wasn't as per the expectations wrt the price. Though the location is great but you might get lost in Banaras's narrow passages. And as I said the staff was great but can't say the same about the admin. Also the WiFi didn't work the whole time I was there. Though I didn't need it but there was no running hot water in the room.
The best thing about the property is it's location, the proximity to the temple and Meer Ghat is almost same, so you walk up to either place within 5-10 mins plus the view from the rooftop which I only realised on the last day of the stay. Second best thing about the stay is the staff which is very polite, honest and helpful can't say the same about the administration.
