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.).

It's an old building, so not so many power outlets for charging devices, but that's to be expected.
Affordable and clean, with a nice guest kitchen, it's a great home base for this pretty area in the Lužiny valley. Tábor is charming and this hostel is right off the main square. Took the train to Bechyně (only 61 kc one-way and 45 minutes, every two hours), which is another lovely little town.

Very noisy pub just below the room windows. There is a room of the shared kitchen, so if you awake early you need to be very quiet.
The building itself was amazing. The level of cleanliness was exceptional. The bedding and beds were comfortable. It is located very close to town square witch was withing walking distance of attractions.

No sink by toilet so have to walk down corridor to shower room, though not much of a problem since it’s about five metres.
Fantastic location, just by main square. Spacious rooms. Kitchen has everything. Unique character, from inside and outside. No bunk beds. Large lockers. Books and magazines on shelves.

Everything was OK 👌! 😊
The location, right on the main pedestrian street, close to Zizka Square, the hard of Tabor. The house, Starek House, historical one, built back in 17th century. The wonderful dorm room. The atmosphere. The work done by Viktoria. The very correct price: 16,11 EUR, including all taxes for a bed in the dorm. Everything is clean. The place is quiet. The check in system is a modern one.

It wasn't obvious how to check-in. The front door was open but there isn't a reception. For reference, you can ring the phone number for the hostel and they'll give you instructions.
The location is great. The price was very affordable, especially considering we had our own room in the hostel.

The room I had suffered a bit from privacy, but this did not particularly bother me. The town is a bit small and there is not much to do.
The staff was great, even coming to check me in outside working hours (bus time problems)! The facilities in the building are also good. It is very close to the main square and about 20 minutes away from the train station by walk. I had a memory foam bed which was more than I expected! The place is clean, there are kitchen appliances which may be used. Also, free WiFi!

Maybe not the best place if you want to be somewhere social. The toilets could've had their own sinks.
Perfect location, next to the old town square. Room was big, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms. Very quiet when we were there. Would definitely stay there again. Nice to have a washing machine that you're allowed to use for free

A bit of a 'student hostel' feel to the place - which was perfectly fair for the price. However, I was surprised to find someone sleeping on the floor of the communal kitchen when I woke up!
Very spacious room. Great location.

I asked some questions through booking.com, but they never replied back. Just before a day of my arrival, they sent me pass code, without any answer. No socket near Dom bed. Noise from street and building corridor. Too bright in morning, bcs no blind
At least they try to keep clean
