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...).

PortugalOnly 2 toilets for too many guests. Electric shower doesn't get warm and messes up with the light, which doesn't offer much confidence safety wise. English breakfast doesn't match the picture on the menu, so it's not worth its price, in my opinion

CanadaNo complaints.
Wow. Super host who arranged complimentary tuk tuk from bus station, smooth check in, good a/c with comfortable bed, clean and fresh linens with lots of hot water. This family run hostel has a host who understands traveller needs. BUNLANG organized a great group dinner with good food for guests to meet and greet. We all greatly appreciated this as the majority were solo travellers. BUNLANG also helped organized group tours which is very nice to help reduce costs and make new friends. Local Family Hostel also rents scooters which is very handy and sell bus tickets. Location is also good with multiple markets close by along the water way.

BrazilOne improving point would be about the tour, maybe not much the hostel itself... it would be lovely if the tour guide offered more explanations before we visited the places rather than after, so we can get into them with a briefing of what it is and the significance of it.
The Real Place is surely a good value for money! It is close to everything in the central area. The place is simple but offers everything you need, toiletries, free water refill, easy to book tours, there is restaurant with affordable good meals and they accept credit card with no fees. This is a family business and the owner of the place and his wife are always helpful and kind. The owner is always seeking ways to make the place nicer to the guests and is open for feedback as well as implement them fast. They organize nice activities for the guests I specially loved the family dinner with delicious Khmer food, I have tried quite some Khmer food and I can assure that the one they do there was one of the best I have tried in Cambodia! They also have microphones and the possibility of doing karaoke which made our night even more fun. I had a blast. Recommend this place!

FranceOnly one toilet on the second floor for two dormitories. You have one more shower and WC on the first floor. Bathrooms and the dormitory are not that clean and modern but for 3$/night it’s understandable. Very hot during the day in the dormitory because the A/C is off (On during the night). The motorbike battery was a bit tired, we couldn’t start it with the lights turned on.
Free water refill Excellent family dinner Restaurant is good, prices cheaper than in the street. Smoothies offered when eating at the restaurant Chill lobby with couches Wifi ✅ Organises cheap tours. We didn’t do it but we heard only good things about the tours from other guests. Host is nice, very available, he wants to improve Beds were comfy.

FranceThe bathroom The air conditioner (I think it's broken, impossible to change the temperature, very cold 🥶). Please, say to the people to use a fan rather than aircon. They are lucky to have both. Sometimes, we really don't need to abuse the aircon.
The place is cozy and comfortable. The owner organizes many things like family dinner (sharing the dinner with all people in the hostel only 4$/pers), and tours with tuk tuk to discover Battambang (temples, bamboo train and bats cave...). The food was good. The owner and his family are so nice (his baby is so cute). He does everything for you and cares about you. He speaks many languages. The rooftop is perfect to chill. Thank you 😊 with pleasure to come back to your hostel.

VietnamBed size is a bit too small, and beds are spaced too closely to another, which made it hard to walk around especially with big backpack & getting in and out of bed was difficult. I bumped my head a few times due to the narrow space and I’m much shorter than other guests. Also, the blind doesn’t cover the bed entirely, which others can still look inside or the light from my bed can prevent others from sleeping. It would be great to have more hangers in the shower. Ideally the AC should be on all day or periodically to save energy but still keep the room cool all day. I had to go downstairs to ask for the remote control which is not ideal especially when returning from a sunny day outside. We were taking our time to eat and there were other empty tables but the staff was very eager to take our plates away so we felt rushed to finish our food and we were also rushed to pay. I can understand if the restaurant were busy and the place is short staffed but that’s not the case. The floor should be wiped everyday if we need to take our shoes off to enter the building.
Good location, good price. Many restaurants and bars on the same street. Many useful information on the wall and tours offered. 2 sockets for each bed is good for charging, as some others only has 1 Has a cute reception and common area for people to hangout Towel is included which is good Bike rental is right across the street from Sim card is around the corner
