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):
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.).

This is such an amazing hostel, 10/10 recommend! The hosts are seriously the best! Sonja and her family and incredibly kind and welcoming, she gave lots of great recommendations and I truly felt like I was welcomed into their home. The beds are really comfy and good AC in the rooms. There’s a nice backyard to hangout in. The location is great, close to old town but without the noise and chaos of being in old town.

United Arab EmiratesI can't say enough good things about Hostel Downtown Mostar. From the moment I walked in, I felt completely at home. The staff are some of the nicest people I’ve met while traveling — super helpful, full of local knowledge, and always ready to share a laugh or a story. The hostel has a relaxed, social atmosphere without being loud or overwhelming. It’s a great place to meet other travelers or just unwind after a day of exploring. Everything was clean and well-maintained — the rooms, bathrooms, and common areas were spotless. The location is amazing — just a few minutes from the Old Bridge and everything else you’d want to see in Mostar. I also joined one of the day tours they offer, and it was a real highlight. We visited some stunning spots around Herzegovina that I never would have found on my own. Whether you're backpacking through the Balkans or just stopping by for a night, this place is a perfect choice. I genuinely didn’t want to leave!

AustraliaWe experienced the bathrooms being full several times we needed to go – only two toilets for dorm rooms as one is locked for the private room only. Outside area doesn’t look exactly like the photos and was not as ‘happening’ during our stay. There wasn't a kettle which would have been nice. On two instances staff came in past 11:30pm and turned on the main bedroom light and spoke loudly (likely checking people in but they were not trying to be quiet whatsoever).
Great stay in nice hostel in the heart of Mostar. Owners are extremely kind and helpful. Beds were comfortable and hostel was mostly clean during our stay. It does feel like a home, which was nice during our travels.

United StatesBathroom and toilet are downstairs, it’s very inconvenient to use toilet at night. Bathroom was freezing, the temperature was even colder than outside. Also I didn’t remember when I booked, the method of payment is cash only was mentioned. Compared to Mostar Hotel a three star hotel, this hostel if it is a real hostel is a little expensive.
Location is great and hosts are nice!

Actually I didn't stayed at this property because they didn't closed the rooms on bookinh.com and they were full booked. I phoned property and lady eas very polite and helpfull, full of understanding, but 7nfortunatelly without any option for overnight.
