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 reviewEverything the hostel provided was absolutely amazing! The service was exceptional and very informative. The common areas were great for entertaining big groups and meeting others! Most importantly, the location was perfect. Close enough to walk to everything, but also a little hidden to keep things private. I am definitely recommending Hostel David to others who are visiting Mostar!

Verified reviewDavid and his team are an exceptional group of guys. The rooms were clean, it was so laid back yet well organized at the same time, but one thing I appreciated the most was his honesty. I've been to many hostels and bad stuff can happen anytime, anywhere, but if I were to have a host where I needed assistance, David would be the first guy id call. place is great for meeting people, great when it comes to location, and cheap beer;) would definitely come back again

Verified reviewReally relaxing hostel away from the hustle and bustle of old town but still a quick 10-15 minute walk away from it. The room was large and bed was comfy with good AC. People were friendly but this is not a party hostel, perfect for someone who wants to socialize a bit and also have a chill place to come back to. Tarek was really kind and the laundry service is great!

Verified reviewOne of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at, more like a home than a hostel. The tour that the hostel offers is excellent and the staff are the most friendly of people. There were so many people there and it’s so easy to make friends, great for solo travellers
The showers are only torso height so need to hold them to use them which is a bit annoying but other than, it’s perfect

Verified reviewThe room was very comfortable and clean, and the bathroom was also super clean The location is excellent – just a short walk from the train station and really close to the old town, so it was easy to explore the city. The atmosphere in the hostel is amazing, with really good vibes all around. The highlight for me was definitely the garden – it’s such a cool and relaxing space that makes it really easy to meet and chat with other travelers. It really adds something special to the stay!

Verified reviewI love the garden and the rooms. There are so many flowers. The rooms have a lot of space and are comfortable. Also the staff is always there to help you. And it’s easy to connect with other guests.
It could have spices to cook.
