How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified review1. The AC is very cold which is good cause the weather outside is extremely hot 2. The room and facilities are fairly clean
1. Room is small and partition walls are thin so you can hear people snoring next to your room or moving around.

Verified reviewExcellent location, 4 minutes walk to Mall of the Emirates where you'll find the metro and bus stations. Great Value for money, you won't find a better location or place for that kind of money. Friendly and helpful staff, keeping the common areas clean. Easy what's up communication. Mohamed always answered all my questions promptly. Even met me and helped me with the luggage and directions when I checked in. Good wi fi. Cooking facilities and iron with ironing board which were very helpful. Very pleased with my stay there. Thank you
Most rooms have no windows and are quite small. Mattress in my second room was hard.

Verified reviewAs for the rooms, they are terrible—hard mattresses, very dirty, everything is falling apart, and both showers are moldy. This is clearly a case of fraud. It’s outrageous that this happened, and I strongly warn everyone against booking a room at this hotel. Stay away!

Verified reviewNothing
Awful. This is not a hotel, it's an apartment falling into disrepair. The management, Pharaohs, is beyond terrible- they are absolute disgrace. They provide a phone number for contact, but nobody answers, or worse you stuck with automatic replies. I have no idea how they're allowed to run such a scam. For check-in, you have to wait indefinitely, and check-out you need to wait until 12 to get your 50 Dirhams security back! I nearly missed my plane because of that. the bed is overly worn and doesn’t seem clean. I never saw dirty windows and curtains like that, only in abandoned buildings. Absolutely Very BAD
Dear Jamil, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We always strive to provide the best service to our guests, and we would like to address your concerns. 1. Check-In and Early Check-In: As clearly stated on our listing, check-in starts at 3:00 PM. However, you were accommodated with an early check-in free of charge to enhance your experience. 2. Hostel, Not a Hotel: Our listing explicitly mentions that we are a hostel, not a hotel. We ensure that all details about our property and amenities are transparent on Booking.com. 3. Check-Out and Security Deposit: Your check-out was completed at 10:30 AM, and your security deposit was refunded at the same time without any delay. We value constructive feedback, but we find the tone and nature of your review to be neither accurate nor fair. We are continuously working to improve and appreciate honest and respectful communication from our guests.

Verified reviewThe accomodation is clean, pretty comfortable, there is a nice small cooking area, bathroom is clean, you can use washing machine and ironing unit. Wi-Fi is ok, not very fast but I could upload and download 50 gb for my work purposes for a reasonable time (speed is about 60-70 mbit). Cleaner comes everyday, the common areas are always clean. The host is great, you can communicate with them via Whatsapp easily. Mr. Mohammed was extremely helpful. The location is good, you can either walk to Mall of Emirates and then to metro or to the Insurance market (Mashreq) station - each direction is 10 minutes walking maximum. You can also get to a good public beach via 81 bus route in 30-40 minutes. There is a small grocerries store on the ground floor of the same building or you can walk 50 meters to a restaurant, or you can walk 10 minutes to Carrefour in Mall of Emirates or in opposite direction to a cheap Viva store.
The partition size is what you can expect from it, pretty compact. I had a big suitcase so I couldn't put it inside the drawer. If you travel light, there would be enough room.

Verified reviewAccording to my own experience; at the time i was there awesome helpful staff, very safe environment, the room was small but clean "most important", literally you get high value for low price
The bathrooms weren't very clean but it met my expectations comparing to other hostels (it's cleaned by staff members every three hours) but I also had to clean it myself everytime before use cause I care much about self hygiene
