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...).

United KingdomCould do with a little shelf next to the charger to put phone on to charge at night and a water bottle.
one of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed in in India. There seemed to constantly be 3 members of cleaning staff ensuring the washrooms, bedrooms and communal areas were immaculate. The dorm beds were cosy and private with a curtain and ample storage for both big bag under bed and also smaller items within the bunk.

United StatesWhat I like the most is the bed space, with 2 lockers, one by your bed , one underneath, a shelf, plug ins, light and curtain for privacy. The space in the room is amazing as in the large bathroom which is kept very clean throughout the day and with enough toilets and showers . The common area is so colorful it really makes you want and sit there by grabbing a book from their bookshelf, a board game, watch Netflix on the big screen or just chill. The kitchen has everything you need to cook from water heater to toaster, microwave, stove, spices, cooking ingredients, fridge and fresh water to drink all day . The staff is very kind, all day around, ready to help. It’s a quick .50 cent ride to any buzzing part of the city. Many supermarkets, shops, market, restaurants and street food are nearby right on the street .They have mixed, male and female dorms. Each door opens which a code which is very amazing and the whole place is under surveillance.

United KingdomI had the dorm bed by the door and it was a little noisy in the morning as people were getting up and opening the door. Normal for a dorm though.
Cool, safe-feeling building with nice common area and kitchen, and comfy dorm beds with curtain and light/charging point inside. Toilet and shower area very, very good. Staff were great and very helpful and there was a good crowd passing through. Lots of cheap local food and chai stalls in the market outside. Good location, especially for the airport. Definitely the best value hostel I’ve stayed in in Mumbai and one of the best in India! I’ll be back for sure.

SpainWe found it a bit overpriced. The common room was small and full of mosquitoes, but nice at the same time, with possibility to smoke because sort of open air. The area was not the best, not easy to find a restaurant, and quite outside Mumbai centre, but we chose it just because close to Bandra station and it was perfect for that.
It was very clean and the staff was helpful. Internet was very good. Very safe. The dorm was quite big and with two lockers for each guest. The toilet/shower was by far the best of our trip in India.
