Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

IndiaThe service was terrible, with dirty beds emitting a bad smell. The air conditioning wasn't functioning properly in the dorms, making the rooms feel like gas chambers with extreme heat. On top of that, the staff's rude behavior and the lack of lock provision added to the disappointing stay.

GermanyIt was an extremely comfortable and easy beginning of our trip in India. The staff helped us 24/7 if we had any questions or issues, especially our problem with registering for indian railways. They also offered a nice and informative walking tour around old delhi. We visited the markets and a Sikh temple where Kabira (our guest host) showed us his religion. We would recommend everyone to stay at this safe, clean and welcoming hostel.

IndiaThere was only one fan in dormitory filled with 5 double decker bed which is not sufficient. AC was making weird noise. The matress was not comfortable for me. The provided locker is small. One among the two shower room door latch from inside was broken. Instead of 5 double decker bed they could put 4 to provide little space to move around.
People were good and the ambiance at night was cool. Locality is good to get everything nearby.

ItalyThis hostel is a vibe, the guys are doing a super good job, they are helpful and welcoming. They helped me with many stuff and suggestions. The mood is fresh and young. Plus for the "walking tour", an authentic experience in Delhi, really as two friends bringing you around their city, we have experienced places, stories share time with other guests, and also had food together. Generally a quality experience.

FranceAlthough the entrance is a bit sketchy (thankfully I read previous reviews about it ahah), when you enter Joey's Hostel you are teleported into a different dimension. I have been in many hostels throughout my solo backpacking life, but I can tell you that not many hostels are like Joey's Hostel and it's all thanks to the AMAZING staff. When you enter through that sketchy door and let go from first impressions, you are immediately adopted into the sweetest backpacker family. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure you feel at home and that you have a great time in Delhi. The lines between staff and guests quickly disappear and you end up feeling like you are hanging out with long term friends :-) Tours into the city are cheap and they take you to see Delhi from the eyes of a local and not from the view of a tourist. The facilities are also good and I especially felll in love with the cozy terrace and the good philosophical chats I had there. I cannot say anything more than to highly recommend this place to everyone. For female solo travelers, worry not! This is an awesome place 🌻😁

FranceA lack of effort to make the place cosy. You can definitely improve the decoration of the common rooms and the rooftop. The place is a little bit austere. Even if you have a metro station near the hostel, it is not close to the center, to touristic places, to any railway station or to the airport (30min or more).
In general the room and the bed were fine, and the hostel clean. It's practical.

NetherlandsSee above. -some loud speaking Indians (I think it was staff members) in the room at night.
Was here a couple weeks ago and because my of my flight back home from Delhi I stayed here another night. Surprisingly no one told me that there was a rooftop lounge and another “common room” in the hostel. I didn’t know about this and the staff didn’t inform me with it. I found it out by myself. My first time here was better than the second time. The staff (still don’t know who’s actually working there or being a guest, it’s quite confusing) were laying on the couch all day long and watching YouTube videos. It would be better if they make some more time for the guests. The bed was good and I stayed in the same room, bed and shower was comfy. Although it really smells like sweat in the common room.

IndiaThey treat indian like who cares. I was given the room where all the workers were sleeping. I couldn't sleep the whole night as that was way to uncomfortable even with the bed. You pay for 23 hrs for a bed or room. But an extra ordinary clause was AC would be only switched on after evening. It means the hot weather of DELHI NCR has to be dealt in that hot Dormitory with just one side fan not even a sealing fan was there.
The washroom was clean and not smelly at all like other hostels

Cleaning boys behaviour is rude. Place didn't seem hygienic and dorm had musky fungus smell all the time.

Probably the best hostel in Delhi. Superb team of friendly, helpful staff, a very sociable atmosphere, with close proximity to Laxmi Nagar metro station, from where you can explore all of Delhi conveniently and cheaply. Lively street outside has a great selection of budget street food and events/tours are on offer most days. The perfect base from which to explore Delhi.
