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...).

United KingdomThe bathroom kept on having problems. First it was all really hot water of every tap, then the shower stopped working then when they fixed it the full bathroom flooded and didn't drain away over night. There was also a lot of black mould on the ceiling on the bedroom which is understandable but isn't great over time on the lungs.
Great location and areas downstairs to relax. It's out of the way of the lake side but still accessible to it. The staff are on hand to fix what is needed. The smaller outside chill area outside of the dorm was nice to relax. Beds were great!!! Very sturdy wooden beams

United KingdomDorm is right next to the reception so if there is any noise you hear it. Staff could have done more about it / should be aware of guests who are trying to sleep at 12am and 5am
Great location, fantastic facilities, large attached bathroom to dorm

DenmarkI had a bad experience with this hostel. The bed was the hardest one I've ever tried, there was not any hot water in the shower and there were animals in the room. The staff were kind but hard to communicate with, as their English wasn't so good. Also they would make breakfast for me in the morning, but then they didn't do it because they had been partying and slept to long. I really can't recommend this hostel.

Sure, here's a well-crafted review for Hostel Gypsy in Pokhara, Nepal: --- I recently stayed at Hostel Gypsy in Pokhara, Nepal, and it was an incredible experience. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the friendly and attentive staff, who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable. The hostel's location is perfect, nestled in a serene area yet still close to the vibrant Lakeside area. This provides a peaceful retreat while offering easy access to the best restaurants, shops, and attractions in Pokhara. The accommodations are clean, cozy, and well-maintained. The dorms are spacious with comfortable beds and secure lockers. I also appreciated the modern, well-equipped bathrooms and the abundance of hot water, which can be a rare find in Nepal. One of the standout features of Hostel Gypsy is its communal atmosphere. The common areas are beautifully designed, creating a relaxed and inviting environment where travelers can easily connect and share stories. The rooftop terrace offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and Phewa Lake, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The hostel also offers a variety of activities and tours, from trekking adventures to cultural experiences, ensuring that guests can make the most of their time in Pokhara. The staff's local knowledge and recommendations were invaluable in planning my itinerary. Overall, Hostel Gypsy exceeded my expectations in every way. It's a gem in Pokhara, offering great value for money and an unforgettable stay. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting this beautiful part of Nepal. ---

GermanyI had a perfect stay in Gypsy Hostel. The room are large and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean and hot shower was available. The Gypsy Hostel has a really nice and huge common area. The staff was super friendly and we did a lot of activities together for example bicycle tour around the lake, sunrise in the mountains, playing billiard and table tennis. Furthermore, the staff helps me a lot to organise my upcoming trip and booked the bus tickets for me. Thank you for the wonderful time and your support. I highly recommend the Gypsy Hostel!
