Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe host was exceptional, the place was very clean, and as soon as you walk in there's always that spell of freshness, the place is always maintained. The kitchen space had everything you needed if you wanted to cook, from an oven to a blender. The beds were so nice and comfortable if there was anything you needed the host would be there for you, if I were to be a lone traveller in Muscat again, I would revisit.

Zouhaier is the most caring host, from picking us up from the airport to preparing dinner for us, taking us to the mosque and helping out with our rental car he is a very attentive, warm and helpful person.

ItalyDepending on your needs, remember that the hostel is halfway between the airport and the old town. Muscat is a big city after all. We always took a taxi with the app (easy and cheap). Not sure about the public transport.
Definitely, without any doubt, the best hostel in Muscat at the moment. The owner and the employee Brahim are exquisite and friendly people, ready to make you feel comfortable and at home. The common room is wide and with comfy couches where you can lie down and relax, talking with the other guests. Rooms were fine, comfy beds with lockers as well where you can put inside your bag. Bathrooms were good and spacious. Nothing fancy, but It's good for a hostel considering also the price. There is a kitchen as well where you can cook or have a black tea or coffee. Free water, tea and coffee. There is an outside area where you can chill as well. I've seen other hostels in Muscat and this one is surely the best one atm.

IranIt is relalated to the city rather than the hostel. Most places for exchanging money have no digital boards and almost say whatever they want.
You immediately recognize the delightful atmosphere of the hostel. It is located in an appropriate area and above of all, the kind, intelligent Owner always finds a solution for your reasonable request.

I had a wonderful trip to Muscat this month for my birthday holiday and the best part of my journey was staying at Legacy hostel. First of all the manager was so helpful with my transportation from the airport to hostel and back. The location was perfect. Everything including food, cafe, exchange and bus station was nearby. The atmosphere was peaceful and friendly. I found some good friends and I didn't feel lonely. We tried arabic coffee and sweets in the afternoon. The staff was really helpful with everything we needed and made this trip memorable. Especially I received some souvenirs from the hostel during my checkout which was surprising. Definitely I will come back again and stay with them and I have nothing in my mind except amazing memories and friendship.

IndiaLocation is a bit far from the center, you have to walk quite a bit to catch bus, curtains for privacy are not there, charging sockets are hanging outside, no personal dorm lights in case someone is sleeping u can't turn on your own light on for reading or work, toiletries & towels are not provided, toilet & shower is only one for 6 dorms. Though these can be improved overtime, oman lacks hostels in general so getting one in the first place and able to stay in budget in oman was something i couldn't complain, but these things can help fellow travellers. (I stayed for 6 days). Odd timings of check in and out at midnight by travellers arriving at night can disturb your sleep specially after 12 a.m. due to lack of privacy.
Ibrahim the receptionist guy was one of the most kindest and polite person i have met in my life, hostel felt like a house, also the owner of the property was in touch through whatsapp and made sure everything was fine. They contacted me so many times at night as my flight arrived at night, to make sure i reach hostel safely. Hostel almost has everything with lulu hypermarket nearby, gym nearby, inhouse laundry & iron, kitchen and A.C., cool fresh drinking water.
