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...).

BrazilIt's very close to the main road so you hear the cars/motos passing by during the day. Thankfully Amed is quite calm at night, so not much noise. I was able to sleep very well!
The staff was great, I liked the banana pancake breakfast with coffee, the location is great, in front of the best place to dive and great cafes around. The bedroom was very comfortable.

United KingdomThe toilets needed a bit of TLC, and there was occasionally no shower water. For the price though, these were minor inconveniences. It would be nice to have a dedicated chill spot that's not right on the main street (breakfast table) and ia more comfortable to relax with other travelers.
Super lovely reception, very cosy beds and great privacy. Huge lockers with a key. The banana pancakes are delicious in the morning. It's right across from a great snorkeling spot. The hostel is quiet but you can still chat to other guests (only 8 beds).

SpainThe shower are a little dirty and they don’t have space ti leave your changing clothes or bathroom stuff, it’s very easy to install some. The breakfast is not really that great as it is only one banana pancake, half burned, and you can’t ask for more than that.
Lovely property well located with very kind staff. Also easy and cheap to rent snorkel material. The shared room is quite clean and well organised, you also have a lot of space to leave your belongins safely.

United KingdomAs the other reviews said, this place isn't particularly social. Staff unable to book a boat to Lombok etc but there are lots of travel places along the road. It's a good place to sleep but hard to meet other people. Great sunset spots just up the hill w bit.
Very comfortable beds here and with curtain, plug and light snd big locker. Quiet at night time. Good hot shower. Nice pancake for breakfast, which starts at 7am. Good of you have an early pick up, like I did. VERY close to beach. For the money is it excellent.

SpainThe girl at reception doesn't speak much english and doesn't have much information, so to every question she told me to wait for the manager, who wasn't coming until the morning after. It would be great if she had all the info about shuttle buses, tours, etc. to organise the stay on the same day of the arrival.
The dorm is really comfy, with great lockers, good wifi, and two toilets/showers outside. Nice breakfast (just banana pancake option) and free water.

GermanyIt would be nice if the toilets and the showers were in separate rooms. Some hooks at the wall next to the bathroom sinks would be a good improvement, so it would be possible to hang up the towel and other stuff. It was quite loud sometimes because of the location directly at the main road, but with earplugs it was ok to sleep.
wonderful staff, very good bed and good cleanliness

FranceAs mentioned in the description, the bungalow does not have air con, only a fan (but the dormitory room has one). I ended up getting used to it easily though. There are no social events organized by the hostel itself and no chilling area apart from the kitchen, thus it kind of depends on whether the people staying there are willing to talk. During my time there, most backpackers were willing to chat and we ended up spending a lot of time together.
Very spacious room. Cleaned daily which is a huge plus. Right across the street from an amazing snorkeling spot and many warungs. Lovely hosts. If you need a quiet place in Amed with a kind family feel, this place is for you. There is only one big kitchen table where everyone sits to eat which makes it easy to talk to people.

The staff is ok. They serve you breakfast; pancakes with tea or coffee. Now when it comes to price, and worth the money, it is good.

Germany- a lot of ants in the bedroom - gap between matress and frame is quite dirty - no blankets available (only sheets) - I had to use my inlay sleeping bag, long pyjamas and was still freezing in the mornings when it got colder and the AC was still on the same level. turning it down as suggested by the owner only helped little as it takes a while for the room to warm up again. Blankets and a more thorough clean would make a big difference.
- generally kind staff/family - cheap snorkel rental 20k without/30k with fins
