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...).

Slovakiastaff is nice, friendly, and helpfull.. good quiet location, social hostel with friendly guests,, yummy breakfast included with free water, dorms are awesome with ac and curtains and power sockets. There is living room with a couches so perfect to chit chat. At the morning bathroom is a little busy but its a minor inconvenience compared to what you get for your money. Highly recommended

ThailandThe people and staff at NerdNest are excellent. Relaxed environment, lots of plants, and great wifi. Spoke to Ganesh at the reception, and Anirban (who cooked me a delicious lunch and prepared the perfect breakfast!). Location is a little far but worth the effort to stay here. Spoke to the owner, Amar, who hopes to expand his business - I wish him well ! 🙏🏽

United StatesSuper clean place with AC! The dorms are comfortable and have power sockets and curtains. The showers are clean and hot, and they are even supplied with shampoo and soaps. This might be the best dorm I booked in India so far, and for excellent value. Friendly staff and delicious breakfast.

IndiaNothing in particular. This is one of the best hostels i have stayed at in India. They are very friendly. May be breakfast can have a few more options, but still decent for the price.
Very affordable, nicely managed. Really loved the way staff shared house rules in the beginning to make my stay comfotable. Complimentary breakfast was a good surprise. Also i loved that they provide all essentials in the toilet.

KazakhstanWould be great if you added a girls dorm option. And some mats or pillows to sit on at the rooftop. And breakfast could be more various.
Very nice and clean place with all necessary facilities. Kitchen, drinking water and laundry services are available. Peaceful neighbourhood, not very close to the center, but still ok - you can use metro, buses or uber/ola/rapido etc. Nice rooftop to chill. Breakfast is basic.
