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 KingdomIt's about a 40-minute walk uphill to the main town. You can take shared taxis, but I got heavily overcharged when taking one and they don't speak English - I'd be wary of using them if you're not Indian as there's a fair chance they'll try to take advantage of you. The Wifi also didn't work in the room I was in (401). Cell signal is temperamental in this area too.
The host is one of the friendliest I've met running a hostel in India. He was super helpful with suggesting ways into the town and supported with scooter rental at a good deal. On my first evening, he sat and had a few drinks with me and another guest to offer advice on things to see. An all-round fantastic, genuine, friendly bloke - makes the hostel 100% worth staying a bit out the city for. Rooms were clean and lots of private storage available. Bathroom was good, with hot shower available.

IndiaOccasionally, they may charge more than expected for packages etc. so please negotiate the price. However, the staff are generally very helpful. To reach your accommodation, you will need to climb a short flight of stairs, which may not be suitable for everyone.
We stayed in a roomy, comfy family room for two nights. It's a short walk from MG Marg, the staff were great, and they've got good facilities. Plus, they have adorable pets – especially the cat! And the rooftop and common areas are awesome hangouts.

IndiaThe steep steps leading to the accommodation could be kept a little lean from leaves and moss to avoid slippage.
The accommodation price was very reasonable and comfortable. View is good as the accommodation is on a good height. Zameer Shaikh was a great host to interact.
