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...).

IndiaThe rooms and the washroom area could have been kept better. One of the showers didn't dispense enough water, so you had to make do with what was available. Even though lockers were provided, they weren't the safest place to keep your luggage
The hostel's location is in a peaceful neighbourhood and easily accessible from the railway station. The staff is approachable and helps you with basic needs, such as towels and soap for a hassle-free stay.

FranceAs a solo travel woman I didnt feel confortable in the dorms. Zero privacy, no bed sheet to cover myself while sleeping. Unbreathable inside the room at night (way too hot even with the fan). People don't stop getting in and out the room at night, the door remains open with the light from the corridor, noise and gathering from strangers at the reception very late at night. I felt more in a waiting room than in a place for sleeping. I felt in a state of alert all the time and couldn't properly sleep. The bathrooms and toilets are not clean. The town itself isn't very nice either welcoming, even a bit dodgy (after sunset).
If you need to spend a night in Madgaon on a budget its ok. The dormitory is more suitable for local men I think (than women/tourists). The staff was present at reception, I didn't feel unsafe. The people in the room were friendly and polite and respectful (mostly local young men). It's cool to find a place on a budget walking distance from the train station.

IndiaIt's written that drinking is not allowed inside the dorms. But still people drink alcohol inside the dorms which I find very uncomfortable. In the two days I've stayed here, I was not comfortable with the smell of alcohol inside the dorms. So I'm reducing 3 stars for that. Also the hygiene of the toilet should be improved. Apart from these two things, I had a good experience here.
The staff are friendly. Especially Prakas, the guy from Nepal, he is very sweet and helpful. He is always available and his dedication is appreciable. A kitchen facility is available so you can make your own food if needed. Drinking water is available. Dorms are okay. Ac is working properly. Locker facility is provided. They have a terrace to dry your clothes if needed. Parking for two wheelers is available inside the property.
