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 reviewThe hostel had an amazing culture. So many people were living from long and I became friends on the first day. People were so nice to each other and we all mingled up fast. The volunteers and host were warm and I had a great time.

Cleanliness - the rooms, beds, washrooms were not maintained The room was stuffy, the blankets could not be used, were dusty. The rooms had no option to be locked from inside, security was a concern too

Verified reviewOne pf the very few properties in shangarh that would offer you authentic village experience, got to stay in a wooden cabin with amazing mountain views. All the people managing the stay are really warm and helpful. And the food is just too good being the highlight with wide variety of options. Would’ve loved to stay for long if work permits.

Verified reviewThe property is legit mud house and you’ll feel a rustic vibe staying in it giving you a touch of village life. The view from the room and the entire property is totally worth it. The property is a lil uphill but you’ve got 2 ways to get there. Meadows is just 15 mins away downhill. Common you’re in the mountains, you have to walk a lil extra mile that’s worth it. Loved the food, the cafe and the staff. ( Do try pahadi chicken). Imraan bhaiya was soo helpful in everything.
The board signs to the property could be made more visible for easy readability.

Verified reviewHad an amazing stay at The Mud Hostel – truly a home away from home! The rooms were excellent with well-thought-out interiors, and the hospitality was outstanding. Special thanks to Chef Manoj Bhaiya for serving the best food I’ve had in Himachal, and to Mohit, an incredible host, always ready to help and share great conversations. One day was way too short to fully enjoy this lovely place. I can’t wait to come back and stay longer. 10/10 for the memories!

Verified reviewThe property has an old world charm and offers you stunning view of the mountains . Gursharan is an amazing host who is always happy to help will help with some good suggestions for things to do in and around Shangarh. Food is delicious and every order is freshly made. The doms are clean and offer all the basic comfort requirements and is a complete value for money. Looking forward to my next stay at Mud Hostel.
