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.).

Everything! My stay at Scodrinon Hostel was like staying with friends. Marcie, Elly & Rob were extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Organised the transport for my Theth-Valbonë hike. There is bikes for hire to ride to the lake. The beds are extremely comfortable, rooms extremely clean. There is lots of space to relax, especially the roof top area. Great views over the old walking street, location is perfect. Breakfast served each morning from home grown produce, including the eggs, with freshly made coffee . There is such a happy vibe in this hostel, it rubs off onto all the guests. Best hostel I have ever stayed in!!

ItalyThe service was perfect! The woman that welcomed me made me feel home. She was really nice, and when I told her that I just had had a long journey and the following morning I had to leave Shkodër before 8 a.m. she brought me some fruits so that I had something to eat. Very kind and lovable! The room was clean and really nice. There is also a rooftop and a bar and everything you would like is there. A big plus was also that the hostel is really close to the bus station and you are in the city centre. I enjoyed that much staying here that if I'll come to Shkodër again I will definitely choose the Scodrinon Hostel. I really recommend it!!

UkraineAll liked it
Nice, quiet and inexpensive hostel with very comfortable and large beds, right in the center. I came from Tirana, where my attitude towards Albanians had deteriorated very much, and the administrator of this hostel gave me hope that there are also very friendly and hospitable people in this country. The receptionist was also very tolerant of my clearly terrible English and helped me book a seat on the bus in Theth, for which I am very grateful.

United KingdomAs it's in the middle of a busy street with pubs and cafes, it can get quite noisy at night time.
The location was perfect, it was close to the bus station and had many cafes, shops and restaurants nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. Facilities were as described and although toilets were shared they were kept clean. Doors closed at a certain time and you needed a pin (provided only to guests) to get in so it felt relatively safe.

AustraliaAmazing place to stay when in Shkodar. Incredible service from the moment you arrive. Breakfast straight from the family farm was an absolute treat and the perfect way to start the day. Especially when Bernard brings out the breakfast raki. Relatively new hostel but Eli, Bernard and the team understand how to do hospitality perfectly. Beds are spacious and super comfortable and bathrooms were always spotless. Roof top beers are a must when staying here. Will 100% be back. Thanks for a great stay

SpainVery central location, and confortable and clean bedroom and showers. They serve a breakfast for free at rooftop as a plus, with a nice view of the city. Staff friendly and helpful. Perfect to stop at Shkoder before hiking to Valbona-Theth or to stay for few days around the city. They offer bike for rent, and also you can reserve the tickets for the trip if you plan to do the hike. Highly recommended and very good value for money.

GermanyOne of the best hostels I've stayed in. It's brand new, cozy, modern, the owners Eyvi and Marsi have put so much effort and love into every detail! The location is perfect, right in one of the nicest streets in the city, with shops, supermarkets and really great and affordable restaurants close by, so no need to cook as there are delicious and cheap options! The rooms are amazing, clean, plugs next to the bed, big lockers in the rooms. Everything is super clean, the beds very cozy (also new!). There is air-conditioning in the rooms. Amazing breakfast and excellent coffee that you can also get during the day for very little money. The rooftop is incredibly beautiful and offers a 360 degree view over the city. The owners are just lovely, open and so helpful!! They helped me organise my trip to the mountains to do the hike from Valbona to Theth and gave me recommendations for amazing guesthouses there. I could even wash my clothes in the hostel which was super kind. Thank you so much! I can recommend this hostel to 100% :-) you'll enjoy it!
