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...).

MaltaHave some mosquito repellent with you when using the open air common area, nature is great, but it has its cons. Also, prepare to feel the real Indian style of sleeping, the beds are rock hard as per local tradition "^^
The staff is very friendly and welcoming! The location is perfect to enjoy Vagator and meet travellers from all around the globe! The place is hidden into the nature, it has a common area surrounded by trees that you'll love!

GermanyI have no complaints. One of the best hostels I've stayed in.
The room is very nice and comfortably furnished and hygienically clean. The single rooms have a balcony with a view of the green forest. The hostel has plenty of seating to relax and chill. The restaurant serves everything your heart desires. The staff is always helpful and in a good mood. Vagator Beach (Ozran Beach) is just around the corner. Overall, I love staying at Kaabo Hostel and would love to come back anytime.

GermanyI had the most incredible time at Kaabo Hostel in Goa! This vibrant hostel truly captures the spirit of backpacking. From the moment I checked in, I felt at home among fellow travelers from all over the world. *Fantastic Amenities:* - Clean, spacious dorms and private rooms - Delicious cafe serving mouth-watering breakfast and snacks - Lively bar with happy hour deals and themed nights - Cozy common areas perfect for meeting new people *Exceptional Staff:* The staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. They organized amazing events and activities, from beach parties to yoga sessions. *Prime Location:* Just a short walk from the beach and close to Goa's top attractions. *Unbeatable Value:* Affordable prices without compromising on quality. If you're looking for a social, relaxing, and unforgettable experience in Goa, Kaabo is the place to be! I'll definitely be back.

Saudi ArabiaAlthough i booked the 4 bedroom, the room situation was horrible. Full of humidity, rot, insects and smells horrible. Barely aerated with no direct sunlight. Lockers were full of mites, small insects and spiders. Washroom was rotten, broken toilet, black spots everywhere. Main door can only be locked from one side, so you can easily get trapped inside by mistake. Would not come back again.
Location is a walking distance to the beach and market main street. Menu in their restaurant was nice and affordable.

Loved my stay here, super close to the beach and only a short distance to restaurants/bars/clubs. The bed was really comfy with curtains and plugs close. The on site cafe also served amazing food and really reasonable prices, and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. The place has a chill vibe and is situated further from the road surrounded by greenery which made it so peaceful. Would 100% recommend this hostel and cafe to everyone. Thank you for a great stay!
