Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GermanyVery nice, quiet hostel with a great outdoor area. Klaus and his parents are very accommodating and endeavoured to ensure that everything is fine. Everything is super clean and well organised. There is a small bar in the garden with drinks, beer and coffee. The city centre with all its restaurants and bars is only a 15-minute walk away. And it's very quiet around the hostel in the evening. Klaus helped us organise the bus transport to Theth with pick-up directly from the hostel. My highlight was watching the kitten’s playing and cuddling in the garden. They certainly attract a lot of attention. 10/10

BelgiumThe accomodation advertises parking without extra charge, however there is a 6 EUR charge per night, if you want to leave your car during the Teth-Valbona hike, which we were happy to pay but would recommend clarifying the info accordingly
Everything was spectacular! Very social and cosy hostel, where it's easy to meet other travellers. Chill outdoor area, very well located in 5min walking distance from the main street but without the noisyness from the bar areas. This was a return visit, as we already enjoyed our first stay here very much. Special shout out to Klaus who met us with a big smile on his face and made us feel super welcome from the moment we arrived. Until we meet again! x

AustriaThe hostel is a bit further away from the city center than I would have liked, but still easily walkable.
Very friendly and helpful staff, the hostel was exceptionally clean, the garden is a great place to hang out in the evening and meet other people and it is located in a quiet neighbourhood. The hostel helps with organizing trips to Shala River or Theth with pick up right from the hostel.

GreeceI forget the host's name but he speaks excellent English. He is a joyful man who tends to the needs of all of his guests with a sincere smile. The same applies to his parents. Clean and quiet. One has the option of relaxing on his own or mingling with the other guests. It was perfect for my needs as I arrived late and all I wanted was a clean place to have a shower and crash for the night. I was also allowed to park my motorcycle within the premises which I greatly appreciated. Unlike other more "elegant", and more expensive hotels which disappointed me, the Hood is a sincere and lovely place which offers exactly what it says at a good price. I felt at home as soon as I walked in. It is one of the places which I have bookmarked in order to visit again when passing through or exploring the general region.

This place is really cool. Nice people, quiet neighbourhood with parking outside. We were able to leave our car in their safe off-street parking for a small fee while we were hiking in the mountains. Beers and coffee cheap. They can help with everything for excursions away to the mountains. Excellent hostel!

United KingdomThis hostel had a lovely atmosphere generated by the lovely staff. The owner (I think he was) stayed up until 1:30am to greet us when we arrived and took the care to remember my note on the booking asking about the River tour (this by the way was incredible, I would recommend booking onto this). The outside area was nicely done with plenty of places to sit and relax. It's incredibly good value-for-money and I would completely recommend. It's a 20 minute walk into the centre so very accessible as well. The parking is on the quiet street it's situated on and easily found from the Google Maps pin.

CanadaThe cabins were very tiny! Also, they didn't have much info about the busses to other towns, which is a definite must in Albania. We had to go to another hostel (mi casa) in order to find the information we needed.
I really loved Klaus, super friendly and helpful. Beds were comfortable and clean, and the hostel outside sitting area was nice too.

SpainWe booked a private bathroom but had to share it with two or three other rooms. Other than that it was very worth the price.
The host helped us a lot with any questions and fixed bus rides and other things to us. The rooms very nice, not very fancy but okay if you only stay for one night like we did. The garden was very nice and a cozy area to hang out and socialize with the host and other guests.
