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...).

BulgariaThe hostel is very clean and has a wonderful environment and atmosphere. The room was bright, warm and with a creative design. Every morning there was a delicious breakfast. The staff were very kind and smiling and always ready to give useful information. This is my favorite hostel.

United KingdomI really liked the owner. His passion for the hostel really shone through. The owner was really helpful and present either at the end of whattsapp or in person. Rooms clean, facilities clean. Hostel is about 13 mins walk from main square, but it's a breeze of a walk, Felt completely safe walking at night. Good group of people there for a couple of nights, good conversations. Light and power socket next to the bed. I loved the hostel & Skopje that I was able to extend my stay.

United StatesThere was nothing to dislike about my stay!
Skopje Downtown Hostel is excellent in all respects. It is centrally located and within easy walking distance to the historic City Center, which includes great shopping, lots of restaurants, a fabulous wine shop, and Old Town. The facility is spotless. The common area and kitchen area are on the lower level. There is a vending machine with snacks and free coffee/tea available 24/7. I stayed in a 6-bunk female dorm room. It was spacious and equipped with larger lockers than many hostels I have experienced. The host is engaging and charming, welcoming guests to what was his family home when he was growing up. He responds instantly to questions! The facility is artistically decorated, all around a comfortable and welcoming place to spend your time in Skopje.

TurkeyOne of the best hostel experiences ever. I loved the pumpkin pastry they gave for breakfast. The beds were comfy and clean. I slept for 12 hours at night I guess haha. And I normally struggle to fall asleep in foreign places. Staff was very nice and helpful. I made a good friend there. Also the bus station is in walking distance.

TurkeyIt wasn't possible to sit upright in the lower bunk bed because the upper bed was too low. There should be more hangers for clothes in the bathroom. They gave me a second cover when I asked becase I was cold but it would have been better if I had been given something thicker.
It was my first experience staying in a dormitory room. The ladies I stayed with were very nice, kind and thoughtful. That is why I slept very well at night. The cleaning was not bad. The staff answered every question I had. It was close to the bus station as well as the city center. It was also great that breakfast was included. I enjoyed my stay. Thank you.

Singapore- the lower bunker bed is too low for a person to sit up in the bed. But since the room is spacious and there is a chair and a table, no complaints about the bed then.
- the female room is spacious - the bathroom is so clean - there is a free breakfast. Milk, cereal, coffee, and some local pastry. Really appreciate it - 15 mins walk to the bus station. It's a bit dark in the evening, but still manageable. 10 mins walk to the center area. There is a small supermarket right next to the hostel

CroatiaThe hostel is very well located and therefore surrounded by everything you need, from tourist sites to supermarkets. The place is new, super clean, very comfortable beds with shelves and lights, lockers in the rooms and great bathrooms. There is a very nice common area, a fully equipped kitchen and a nice garden where you can hangout with other travellers. The staff is a plus, just awesome people! They offer free breakfast with fresh balkan pastries, laundry service, private tours, transfer to the airport and info about the city. They also offer free coffee and tea 24/7!!! That place is wonderful!

EgyptThis is the hostel you should book when you need a clean place with a lot of facilities. I am a smoker and there was an outdoor tables where you can smoke which was always clean. All the staff were super helpful and nice and want to help and show you around. Even when I had a problem with a parking ticket they helped me with it. The beds are super comfy and clean and the common area is amazing with lots of tea selection and coffee. The internet was also very good. Definitely will come again.

BrazilMacedonian breakfast, really liked the Ajvar and pastries. Warm and cozy common areas, really well equipped kitchen, you can grab coffee or tea anytime. There's also a market across the street and an ATM really close. Got free towel (you have to ask), extra blanket and extra pillow. Nice staff, they will help you with anything you ask. Bed was really good and comfortable. They also have an only female bathroom. Everything was very clean. Anywhere you go from the hostel you will walk between 10 to 30 minutes, well located. The hostel was recently renovated and reopened so everything is new, during my stay they even changed the coffee machine so they are doing improvements everyday.
