Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

FranceVery good location. The staff is really top and adapts. We can drink the water down there. They offer great activities to discover the surroundings and they are really the cheapest in the city. The beds are comfortable. Just despite the fact that there are a lot of staff I didn't find the hostel very clean

AustraliaNot much of a social aspect. Lots of lovely people I met but more chilled, which didn’t bother me, but might for others. There are only fans on each bed, no A/C… again didn’t bother me though!
Amazing little spot! Friendly staff that help book tours. I really wanted to go to Rio Celeste waterfall and they arranged it with some people from the hostel. There are also other activities you can do. Room was very clean with great showers! Location was great! I felt very safe and comfortable here being a solo female traveller. Also cutest little puppies that live on site!!

United KingdomThere are no lockers and the room is very crammed with 6 beds and the luggage everywhere on the floor.
The location was good and the bed comfortable. The room was very hot and stuffy, but the individual fan helped a lot. The beds have a privacy curtain, which is good, however not all beds had it and not all the way around.

ThailandThe dorm I stayed was very small…so feeling quite cramped and not good ventilation so the room smelled a bit. Bathroom could be cleaner also.
Good location and very friendly host who provided great info and also tried to do self-organized trips to volcano if people at the hostel want to go together 👍 Simple but very nice pancake breakfast+fruit included. Comfortable bed with curtain and fan. Homy common area with kitchen.

MexicoMy bed it was beside the reception and I heard through the window that was on my head all what they were talking and the girl it was keep on talking like sending the same message like 20 times. The bathroom it was smal and dirty. That was my room and I look at other rooms and it seems many beds in a small room. So I guess the pictures of rooms doesn’t look like they really are.

SpainIt was a nice stay, although not the most comfortable. There was just one bathroom to share in between many of us, and the room was quite dark and the smell of humid clothes was stuck in the room the two nights I was there, it was difficult to dry the clothes anywhere else. I would recommend finding something to do so to avoid the strong smell in the room. As for the staff that was the best part, all very friendly and with a great environment. Also I really liked that they offer tours and activities at a very good price.
