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...).

Very clean and quiet for a Hostel, with lots of organized activities. Great location. Extremely nice and helpful receptionists, they’ve let us leave our bags in a locked room so that we could roam through Barcelona while waiting for our flight in the evening. I can only recommend it and would stay here again.

UkraineJust one thing to add - would be nice to have place to hang the clothes and towels to dry
I have the most positive experience of staying at Mambo Tango! First of all, it was thanks to the super friendly and helpful administrators available 24/7. The hostel’s location is great, close to metro, cable car, within a walking distance to the main sites. The bed was super comfortable and neat, and you could have privacy and uninterrupted sleep with the curtains that make your bed your completely personal space. Air conditioning worked perfectly. Showers were probably quite small, but it wasn’t a big deal. There’s a large living room to hang out and a kitchen equipped with literally everything downstairs from the reception. You can have a coffee/tea/water any time; and filter coffee was sooo good! Moreover, they serve a complimentary “small” breakfast every day which is more than enough - coffee, milk, toasts with jam, fruit, various pastries… I really enjoyed staying here and would definitely come back!

UkraineThe wifi was only at the door and it was weak. Even the TV in the room said "No wi-fi connection". The room looks fresher on the photo. The shower is very old, as if from the USSR. I fell for the normal photos. Right at the entrance to the room is a smoking room. The room stank horribly of cigarette smoke all the time, and you can hear every sound from this smoker. I literally could not sleep normally because from 23:00-03:00 someone was constantly filling my room with cigarette smoke, while listening to loud videos on the phone or talking. I only came to the hotel to sleep and never once managed to get a good night's sleep.
Great location. Near beaches, street with cafes.

LithuaniaWe got double room with private bathroom. That room is really bad for the price. I assume dorm rooms are better condition than double, because in the room you can feel very strong humidity and the small humidity container doesn’t give much help😀 the clothes that i left hanging in the room absorbed more moisture and in the result were wet (when you’re traveling for couple days not a nice thing at all), also room needs some “help” especially floor. We stayed only 2 nights, so we didn’t spend much time in the room. Bed was comfy.
Very good location, friendly staff.

United StatesOnly I don’t like their bed frames . Made from metal.
They have all free bathroom supply(soap, towel, shampoo etc). Staff is excellent. We arrive at hostel late night 1am. A desk person is so friendly and fresh. Breakfast was included too. And pretty much good breakfast . Fruits, bread butter, croissants with chocolates And coffee. And close to airport and Barcelona city. I would definitely go this property next time.

SpainThe beds are kind of what you expect: hard, with hard pillows. Still, if you are just staying a few days it's perfectly fine and I have stayed in places with far worse beds!!
Absolutely great place to stay, especially for the money. Staff and facilities were great. So kind. Their English is good too. The complimentary breakfast was an unexpected surprise and it made life so much better XD Thanks so much!

PolandDouble room with bathroom is close to patio and the cigarettes smell goes inside the room. The window was small and not transparent so that it is a little bit too dark inside. The bed mattress is too soft which causes back ache.
Very clean and nice smelling sheets and towels as well as the liquid soap. Well equipped shared kitchen with cozy area to sit down and eat. Helpful and kind receptionists 24h/7. Small breakfast was also nice. Water, tea and coffee 24h/7 :)
