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.).

PhilippinesIt doesn't have an elevator. We understand as it's a backpacker hotel but my brother got an injury during our trip so it makes it very inconvenient to go up and down the stairs. Everything else is great!
They have late check in option, which was great since we arrived around 3am. Its location is close to 711 and other restaurants. It's also a walking distance to the train station which makes it very convenient to travel around taipe.

Thank you so much for everything!! On my third night, I had a little chat with a staff member on the front floor. We talked about various topics, including the difference between Chinese characters in Taiwan and those in Japan. I had so much fun talking with her. I definitely want to come back to Taipei, and when I do, I want to stay at your hostel again! Thank you so much.

SingaporeBed is on the floor, so unable to stow luggage below. Toilet paper cannot be flushed down so need to throw in the bin beside and ask cleaner to clean the next morning. Personally not a big issue. Stairs are quite steep. If travelling with elderly, please take note. The room was on 2nd floor but manageable.
We were 3 people booked private room with en suite bathroom. Bathroom was clean, sufficient and food. Location was excellent with a hotpot restaurant nearby that is popular. Walking distance to Ximending. Good laundry facilities (washing machine, dryer). Need to pay a small fee to use. Price is very very reasonable for non fussy travelers on a budget.

PhilippinesBefore arriving in the hotel we keep contacting the hotel staff informing us that we are alreay in Bangkok and that we need final confirmation if the room is still reserved for us since there is no confirmation or deductions made in our CC. Yet nobody replied nor noticed our messages.
I like that it is just within the city center wherein major malls are very accessible by foot, Pratunam Market and Platinum. Just a little walk also for train and is very accessible for any other kinds of transportation and also 7/11 and restaurants. I like that the hotel cleaned the room daily and replaces the towels for new. Plus daily complimentary water.

AustriaThe beds are very shaky, and you definitely need ear plugs (which they provide for free). The basement looks very different on the pictures than in reality, it’s not that cozy, more functional.
Very good location! Very nice and friendly people!
