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...).

NetherlandsGetting there the first time with a grab is difficult. You cannot reach the exact location by car. Better to look for a drop off near on a bigger road.
It is a simple but great place. A really nice pool. The staff is amazing. Really helpful and nice! For me it was the best hostel so far in Indonesia!

VietnamWe stayed there 2 nights and had a nice stay. Accommodation is simple with a Fan but the stuff was lovely. They organise everything for you. For expample the temple tours. We had an amazing driver, his name is Bl4ck and his english is just amazing. I had the chancw to ask him so many things so we ended up talking the whole day. He recommended us a bicycle tour at his place and it was just stunning driving through this amazing scenery where you can see Rice fields. He called the trip his bike happiness and it really was. Highlight recommended. Look for him on Instagram blackui88: are you ready to my bike my happiness. Enjoy!

PolandThe whole place needs deep cleaning not only sweeping the floors. My cabin has got the potential to be more cosy but somebody decorated it with vandal-style graffiti making it look like a devastated shed. Cleaning it in all corners, removing the badly made graffiti, hanging sheets in similar color and it would be perfect.
The staff is excellent. Clever, knowledgeable young people. The location is ideal. Just next to restaurants and shops. The atmosphere is friendly. It is a very good place for backpackers.

SpainThe staff is really nice and helpful. This is a modest hostel but for me was enough. I stayed in the female dorm and it was not bad, the only thing was that there was not a lot of space for leaving the things, no curtains and no ac. For me with the fan was fine. We rent the motorbikes with them and it was all good. Also they help you with any question that you might have

AustraliaThe mosquito nets could be a bit larger/fashioned in a cuboid shape, so that it is roomy and fits the mattress well.
It's a quirky little hostel that's unlike any other that I've stayed at before. Staying there was an experience itself. Would recommend for seasoned hostel dwellers that aren't too fussy.

United KingdomThe infrastructure was a bit rudimentary at times, some of the building seems like it almost fell apart and the rooms were almost like a cottage built with leftovers from older buildings. So not very safe, if you are in your 20s and looking for an experience like sleeping in the tree house this is must! If you are over 30s or with any physical disability be careful.
The very chill and punk vibe makes me feel like I'm in my 20s We love the warm welcome of Mr D. He was full of advice and always ready to help us with everything!!!! Best staff 1000000%
