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.).

Little hostel with a great location. The room was a bit small for all the beds plus the bags of everyone but we managed to work it out. A few minutes walk from the Phousi Hill and the night market.

New ZealandThere were no locks on the doors to any of the rooms. Our room was VERY small. We had a six bed dorm where all the beds were head to toe with barely one square metre of free space in the middle of the room. Zero room for bags. Bathrooms got quite dirty by the end of the day as there were only 3 for all the dorms.
Good location. Nice staff. Comfy beds.

United StatesThere was no lock on the door to the room. The room was right next to the check in desk. Several times the room door was left open so people could look at the room to see the setup. Also, The manager would knock on the door and quickly open the door to show the room. This happened one time when I had just gotten out of the shower. I would suggest that a lock was put on the door for privacy and safety of items left in room. I did not have anything taken.
Good location. About a 15 minute walk to center of city.

GermanyThe hostel and the location is nice, also the staff is very friendly. If you are a solo traveller looking for a hostel where you can meet other people and that organises events and tours, it might not be the best option for you. But if you are just looking for a place to sleep, it is definitely fine.

GermanyMirrors have not yet been installed in all the bathrooms, but I'm sure that will soon be the case.
Hostel that is just opening up! We were there for 5 days and a lot of new things happened in those 5 days! A great shoe rack, a new mirror... Downstairs the front lobby is still a construction site, but soon it will be finished and it looks really great! It was very cheap and a great location! About 10 minutes walk to the night market. You can wash your clothes for free in the hostel (you need washing powder, but you can buy it around the corner for little money! There is a water dispenser and a great communal area! We met great people! The staff are super lovely the man at reception is so helpful and super sweet🥰. You can also rent motorbikes there for an okay price. There is also a kitchen and a fridge! The madness :) We loved the hostel!

LaosThe front of the hostel is under construction. Squeezed way too many beds into an exceptionally tiny room. Rooms smelt of cigarettes with limited airflow. Flimsy and small locker storage, and no ability to lock the room. The whole hostel was very dirty. The staff/the owner also made comments about myself and other travellers which were incredibly uncomfortable. Ended up leaving the first night rather than staying due to the condition of the hostel and general unsafe feeling. Would never recommend anyone to stay here.

SwedenThe first morning I woke up to no running water. The staff excused it but didn’t really do anything and acted like it was a very common problem. No cleaners took care of the floating dookies in the toilet bowls.

MaltaNot good, we booked this hostel because it was “good price” (it is the most expensive one we have paid in Laos) when we get there the receptionists tell us there are no beds, but he can put us in other room way more expensive, we agreed and when we were about to pay he increase the price again, the room was so small, the bathroom very dirty. Really don’t recommend it, we had to leave the place. Don’t come to this hostel

PolandFirst - my reservation was not confirmed despite of what I got from Booking. The prices for 12-bed and 6-bed were raised by 30% and 25% respectively during my stay, although their service standard did no increase accordingly. Very tight and hot rooms although the privacy around the beds was fine; some curtins and lamps/sockets/fans by each bed. I hated the bathrooms. Always disgusting wet floor with aftershower water or leaking toilets. No mirror in any bathroom! All apliances were loose and dreadfully matched or finished. No key was issued as the hostel is open 24/7 and the rooms are too. Only small lockers for personal belongins in every room.
Located within walkable distance to the Night Market. Quite comfortable mattresses. The A/C was present but not used too often due to their emplacement just over head of one of the top beds. Cute little fans fitted over the lower bunk beds. So, ask for such a bed. Nice sitting area with mat and simple table where the guests may socialise. But no terrace or another outdoor place. Funny houskeeper, always smily and joker.
