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 is centrally located and close to the main square, making it easy to find. For those looking to explore the city, public transportation is excellent—buses and trams are frequent, and you can hop on at almost any stop without waiting. Plus, public transport is free, which is a big advantage. The hostel is cleaned regularly every morning. The clear rules and well-established system make the stay more comfortable and safe. Additionally, the common lounge area is quite pleasant and perfect for socializing.
Please consider this review within the context of price-performance balance, as the accommodation was budget-friendly There is a bar located right below the hostel, which makes the environment quite noisy. If someone in the room snores, the combination of the noise from the bar and the snoring makes it nearly impossible to fall asleep. The room had 10 beds, and on the first night, it was extremely stuffy, damp, and had a very strong, unpleasant smell. I've stayed in many hostels before, but I had never encountered such a heavy odor. After the first night, I fell from the top bunk in the morning, injured my arm, and hit my face on the floor. The hostel staff showed concern and tried to help. I decided to stay one more night so my brother's trip wouldn’t be ruined. On the second night, the smell was slightly better—probably because the window had been left open. However, this made the room very cold. Still, we preferred the cold over the strong odor. Because of the fall, I had to leave one night earlier than planned, but no refund was offered. They said the fall was my own responsibility. By the way, the bunks are quite high, which poses a safety risk. Also, all the lights are turned off at 11:00 PM, so if you return late at night, it’s quite difficult to organize your belongings or change your clothes.
Hi Ilayda, honestly not surprised seeing your review but wasn’t aware of other things you mentioned here. First of all, I’m really sorry about your fall, I truly hope you’re feeling better now. I do know how upsetting that might be to get injured while traveling. Just to clarify, our team mentioned that you missed the last step of the ladder, (that’s what you yourself told us) and since there was no issue with the ladder itself, we unfortunately couldn’t offer the refund you requested. We always try to be fair, but our policy only allows refunds when something on our side causes a problem, and that was not the case. For other cases please refer to our cancellation policy. Regarding the room, thank you for your feedback. Hostels can sometimes get a bit busy with so many travelers coming and going especially in the room with 10 people you stayed in, but we clean daily and do our best to maintain a comfortable and fresh environment. I wish you had mentioned any issues during your stay. As you remember, I personally asked you if anything was wrong besides the fall but you didn’t mention anything. Even despite that, we appreciate hearing your thoughts now and will keep working to improve. No hard feelings at all. I hope your future travels go smoothly and safely, whether you’re climbing Everest, a bunk bed in a hostel or simply walking a street. Kindest regards, Anna - owner

Verified reviewas a solo female traveler I felt very safe. Olivera at the reception is just the warmest and the kindest woman, big shoutout to her! The place is nice and cozy, I also got a huge double bed with a curtain during my stay which is something unusual for a hostel and exceptionally comfortable! Location is very central so it’s super accessible to literally anywhere especially with a free public transport in Belgrade now it’s just a backpacker’s heaven. Overall a very pleasant stay!

Verified reviewStayed a couple of nights. Besides the best location in the city, to me the place was perfect, not too small and not too big so it felt like I stayed at a friend’s apartment, honestly. Met some nice people and staff was very welcoming and helpful navigating around the city. I’d certainly get back next time i’m here.
The hostel was not full, but not empty though, I guess it depends on the season, during my stay it was quite cold weather. Some of the showers have just curtains, which I didn't mind, but if you want more privacy, you can wait for the private bathroom where you can lock the door. However, in the morning, it might be busy.
