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.).

United StatesNothing about the hostel - just don't underestimate the heat in Jaisalmer
I really enjoyed my stay. The manager, Lucky, came to pick me up at the junction where the bus dropped me off, even as I got dropped off early. Instead of asking for payment the moment we arrived, he took us up to the rooftop and gave us a chai. It was a great welcome and first impression. In my case since there were such few guests (low season) he upgraded my room and it was awesome. I extended my stay of course. Also a shout out to Rasid who is running the restaurant upstairs, he was a cool person to talk with and made some great food. 100% recommended

United StatesLucky and staff are the best. So friendly and helpful with everything and anything we needed. The hostel itself is super clean and comfortable with great views. The rooftop restaurant is lovely and the food very good. I feel like I am leaving my family and will miss them all very much. We also met such sweet people who were staying here and we all went on the safari together! We did a jeep safari and one woman who joined us did ride a camel. All the guys on the trip were so sweet and nice and fun. Great food, great music, great stories, great group! If you want a jeep or camel safari, Lucky and his crew are your people. Don’t look any further, seriously…just book with him for both the hostel and safari, you can’t go wrong and you will be happy that you did. Also their English is great!!!

CanadaHad an incredible experience staying at this hostel. Felt like I was leaving my family after I checked out. Had some issues with my AC on the first night but the staff quickly prepared a new room for me. After that the level of service, comfort, and sense of community at the hostel was exceptional for the remainder of my stay. The desert safari was also unforgettable. Thanks to Lucky and the other staff for everything!

LatviaI went with a group of friends and instantly loved it. The staff is super friendly, flexible, and made us feel right at home. They also organized an amazing desert camel trip—some of us went for one day, others for two. Personally, I’d recommend the two-day trip, as you get to spend a full day out in nature with just your camel and guide—such a peaceful and memorable experience. Highly recommend this place, and I’d definitely love to come back!))

United KingdomWonderful location inside the fort with incredible views both from the rooftop terrace and my room.. I cannot recommend the Desert Safari highly enough - it truly was the most amazing experience - the camel riding was great fun! Helpful and friendly guides, excellent food cooked over an open fire and you can choose where you sleep - (on the sand, or on a cot, with the group or a little bit away if you prefer to enjoy the serenity of the desert and the view of the stars by yourself) There is a campfire, singing and dancing (and even some acrobatics if you're up for it!) The price was also great - fantastic value for money and definitely one of the best experiences I've had in my 2 months in India. Whether you are male or female, solo or in a couple or group this trip will suit you. Food on the rooftop terrace was good quality (and better prices than a lot of similar places in the surrounding area).The included breakfast has several tasty options and is available from 7am - perfect if you have an early bus, or want to head out early for sightseeing. Lastly, I have to recommend Lucky - one of the nicest guys and best hosts I've encountered on my travels. He picked me up and dropped me off for my buses (free of charge!) which was a great bonus after getting off a long night bus journey. Nothing is too much trouble for him and he is always around if you need anything. (And he's quite funny!) The value for money was incredible - and the rooms, and all other areas, were incredibly clean. Hot water for showers always available (don't forget to flick the boiler switch on a few minutes before you need f you have a private bathroom) The beautiful Jain temple is just a couple of minutes walk away and the Havellis just a few minutes further on foot. I normally don't give such long reviews but I can't say enough good things about this place!!

AustraliaStaying not long enough, it was too good
Wow, what a stay! Lucky, our host, was above and beyond. Best service we had in India for sure! Good communication, great vibe, he sent someone to pick us up late at the station, drop us off himself even later when we left. Attentive and super nice, he and his friend Ashis were amazing. The room was incredible too, what a value!! Of course it's cheap because they sell desert safari tours, as everyone does around. It is still an incredible value regardless. We opted for an overnight desert tour with them and it was great, exactly what we were looking for: very small group (we were 6), a bit of camel ride, sleeping under the stars in a remote sand dune right on the sand after a dinner cooked on fire with the camel men. Simple, quiet, good vibe, perfect! Price is competitive, but they're not pushy. They can also direct you to other operators if this tour doesn't suit you and you fancy something a bit more upscale (and they let you know what you're supposed to pay). All in all, we highly recommend this stay!

ChileThe hostel is nicely located inside the Fort. The room has a touch a good taste with the decoration, matching the style of the house. And even had a gorgeous view of the Fort and the city from the window. They have a great rooftop where I relaxed and enjoyed the sunset ... and the breakfast ... and dinner. Yesss the food! Raju (the cook) prepares really delicious meals. Cheese Naan was my favourite. If it gets bit cold on the rooftop, there is a nice common open area next to the kitchen to lay and chill with other travellers. I had a great time chilling with the guys working/helping in the hostel. Ha-lucky (he is running this place) is a master! He is always helpful, gentle, with his friendly smile, making you feel comfortable ... man you work a lot !!! He even picked me up (for free) from the bus stand. Thanks for everything, your hostel and your vibe made my time in Jaisalmer one of the best moments I experienced in India. Big hug and hope to see you all again.
