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...).

NetherlandsThe only thing that's not great is the location, it's quite far from the center. But with motorbike it's still easy to get there.
Host is an amazing guy, helps out with everything, really cares about his guests. The building is beautiful, very spacious and a nice social area. Large kitchen as well. Facilities are amazing too. And all that for quite a cheap price.

United Arab EmiratesI stayed about 3 months in this hostel, and I was so sad to leave because i felt at home. Mok is a super host. He makes you feel really comfortable, and whatever you need, he gonna help you, he is really kind and helpful. I had my birthday in their hostel, and Moak made me feel really special, he take care of each guest as I had never seen, the value doesn't have any comparatiion with the price that you pay. The hostel has a beautiful and big garden with mango trees, chilli, eggplant, and avocado, and it has even a basketball basket. In this garden, I spent I lot of time in the morning. It's a good place to do yoga and journalism or meditation. Inside, he has a big area to chill, play games, play guitar (yes, he has a guitar!) or just for work in the computer, and for the cooking lovers,, he has a really big kitchen with all the tools that you need. The beds are really comfy, and of course, he has AC. He has chickens and a cat, Aban, Mok's son. This is a beautiful place to stay. You don't need to think about it, it's the best hostel that I have ever been, and now it's my second home.

New ZealandIt's not a gripe about this place just travelling in general. Why are other guests so inconsiderate these days!? I remember when everyone was polite and friendly and went out of their way not to disturb other people's sleep. These days people seem more interested in their phone than fellow travellers. I find it the absolute height of arrogance that someone would ignore a fellow traveller that says "Hello" to them, and just as bad that they lie in their bunk talking loudly to their phone while others in the room are trying to sleep 🤨 Oh, one small detail: the electric plugs in the rooms are disabled. You can only charge ur phone in the lounge.
The other reviews are true. This place is a bit of a gem. It is perfectly located, you can catch the number 8 bus very easily to and from town. The cat is a cuddle monster. The host is always around which is a good and bad thing... good because he is super friendly and interested in your travels, but bad because you cannot completely relax, you get the distinct feeling that you are in his living room instead of in a backpacking hostel lounge 😂 this results in a sparkling clean hostel, the cleanest I have ever seen. The hugest plus is that while you can hear the local mosque in the lounge, the bedroom is sound proof enough for the mosque not to wake you every morning at some ungodly hour! 😀 Yogyakarta is really nice. Check out the zoo, it is cheap and world class. There is superb dine in or takeout food nearby google maps: "Ampera Malam Masakan Padang". There is a superb fruit stall nearby too: "Warung Buah Segar".

Very friendly staff. Nice, clean private room. Dorm was also very nice and clean. Beds were soft, slept good. The hostel owner feels like a friend you can rely on. Listens to what you want and giving good advice on what you need. Very cheap because of the low season. More than worth the money!

Sockets, a mini shelf, and a mini lamp were installed right next to the bed. The staff and owner were very accommodating and helpful. They will try their best to help you with information you might need to go around the area.

United StatesWe had a great stay at Sleepy Raccoon Hostel, the host truly was a super host and helped us out with renting a motorcycle, laundry, restaurant recommendations and anything else we could have wanted. The location wasn’t too far from the main attractions and was easy to access by motorcycle, and the property was beautiful and peaceful. Highly recommend.

I solo-travelled during off season and the place did not have a lot of people just for a couple of them. However, Mr. Mak and his cats made me feel like I was back home. He was very helpful with renting me a bike/ some tips on where to souvenir shopping/ places to visit etc. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and very well maintained. The shared room has a TV which has access to OTT platform. Your stay will feel like you’re back home. :)
