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...).

FranceCommon bathroom could be little more clean. It was not dirty, it was ok, but this could be slightly improved. Except that everything was great
Very nice staff, ready to help you in every thing. Rooms are basic but they have every thing that you need. There is some food available. You can ask anything to the owner. He speaks good english, so is the staff and they can always help. Place is located in a quiet area but center still reachable very easily. It is perfect place to come for a few nights and get to know the vibe before exploring nepal once you arrive. And also before leaving. They also let you keep your bags in a safe storage which is super helpful!

Cozy and relaxed little place away from the hustle and bustle of city center, but 30 minute walk from Thamel. Sunny is super nice and helpful and makes you feel right at home. The restaurant is a good place to meet people.

United StatesThe bathroom/shower setup was offputting. I was initially going to leave after day 1 but it wasnt as bad as i thought. You just need to time your shower/bathroom time right before you leave the room. The hospitality, location and price kept me there. The beds were small but I slept well each night.
The best thing about this hotel is the hospitality. Sunny is an amazing, warm hearted kind person and you can tell he treats the staff in the same demeanor. You feel safe and welcomed here with his first smile. First the price is the best in the vicinity ( save some $$). I loved this location (outside of the busy thamel areas and only a 70 cent grab ride pretty much anywhere.) I had a square loop of my favorite places all within walking distance (great coffee shops, yoga studio, lunch spot) I dont know how they can have such an amazing restaurant with prices so cheap. I dont get it, but i welcome it. Great location for people who do not require much other than the basic necessities and want to support local nepalese humans. Oh and I met some great people here, so its a mini vortex of like minded travelers and explorers. This is not a party spot.

NepalOnly one time did the school alarm go off early and I thought it was a fire alarm lol- but once I knew it wasn’t I just put in earplugs to not hear the morning bell and slept quite well.
I absolutely loved the hosts here. Everyone was so kind, genuinely caring, and excellent hosts. The food is amazing, the shower is the hottest shower you will ever take- which is amazing after many cold showers in Nepal! The hosts make you feel like family and the garden area is so comfortable to sit and have tea and meet people from all over the world! I was visiting my friend here and I was so impressed that I changed my schedule to stay a few days here with her and once on the way back from my other travels. it’s off the main road tucked out of the way which I loved. There is a school nearby and the kids will say hi and wave out the windows at you. it’s such a loving space.
