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.).

I had an amazing stay at Trippy Turtle Hostel in Manali, which is conveniently located near Mall Road and the HRTC bus stand. The hostel offers a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, making it a perfect place for travelers looking to relax and socialize. The rooms were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, while the common areas had a great vibe with music, games, and friendly people. The staff was extremely helpful and ensured a comfortable experience throughout my stay. Waking up to the stunning mountain views and enjoying the peaceful yet lively ambiance made my trip unforgettable.

IndiaI had the absolute pleasure of staying at Tripp Turtle Hostel, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better place! Initially, I planned to stay for just a day, but I ended up extending my stay to three days—and even then, I didn’t feel like leaving. Affordable yet Quality Stay Despite being budget-friendly, the hostel doesn’t compromise on comfort and quality. The rooms are cozy, the vibe is chill, and everything is well-maintained—making it a great value for money. Incredibly Homely Atmosphere A huge shoutout to Shoeb bhai and DK, who made the stay feel like a home away from home. It genuinely felt less like a hostel and more like crashing at a friend’s place for a fun night out. Their warmth and hospitality were unmatched, making every moment memorable. The Common Room – A Hub of Fun! The common area is an absolute gem—filled with laughter, fun conversations, and endless joy. Whether you’re meeting fellow travelers or just chilling, it’s the perfect place to unwind and make new friends. Unbeatable Hospitality What sets Tripp Turtle apart is how much they go out of their way to make your trip special. They accompanied us on treks without charging anything extra and even helped us bargain at local spots—it genuinely felt like they were more of friends than business owners. Final Verdict If you’re looking for a place that offers affordability, comfort, and the best hosts, look no further. Tripp Turtle isn’t just a hostel—it’s an experience. Highly recommended!

IndiaThe hostel has everything you need. The location is 700m away from the mall road and everything is available right at that spot. Service is great, the hosts and the staff are very friendly. Food is great and everything is neat and clean. The hosts are fun to hang out with and also have a lot of knowledge of the location. Overall, a great experience!

Location was spot on, about 500m from Mall road, staff were courteous, rooms were decent and the bathroom was okay. There was little space for parking.
