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...).

AustraliaThe place was in a great location. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful with everything. They let us store baggage for little cost while we went to Colombia. The shower area is a little odd and nothing special.

United StatesThe place could use a deep clean in the dining area. The beds could use colorful blankets. The place is definitely a hostel n low budget but just a few improvements could really help. Just a simple splash of color on the covers w help. Everything is white on white which only makes you focus on dirt.

United StatesMy bed was lumpy. The springs in the box spring mattress were noticible when sleeping. I was disappointed in the mattress.
The beds in the dorm rooms are designed to ensure privacy - curtains enclose the bed, a light for reading in bed is provided, a switch for an adjustable fan is also included, 2 electrical outlets and a shelf to store items are also included. Free breakfast - fresh fruit and pancakes/ waffles - is provided. The pool was well maintained. Did not use the hot tub. Efficient and quiet air conditioning in dorm room at night.

SpainWe booked a private room (mini privada), it was super super small, without any window and not comfortable at all. Not recommended, but the dorms looked like they had more space.
The owners were super lovely, helped us as well with booking our tour to the San Blas Islands. Also there's breakfast (pancakes and fruits) included.

The hostel is nice, although nothing special. We stayed 1 night as a stopover after arriving. The staff is very nice but the tips weren’t really helpful (we were told to get bus tickets to Valle de Anton 1 day in advance although the bus is leaving every hour..)

Colombiathe women’s bathroom floor was always wet. women were not careful when using the shower. Twice I had to hang up the bathmat that was full of water. At 4 a.m one morning another guest in the dorm was listening to a religious program without headphones. I reminded him that it was Quiet time but he didn’t turn it off.
the checkin was easy, they gave us good information on places to park. and eat. They were very responsive to questions and concerns. The pool was great!

IndiaThe small guy with noise voice who works in the morning was very rude and disrespectful, We rented the room with breakfast included from 8am to 10am and when we arrived to 9:30am we didn’t find anything to eat and we asked to the guy if he can bring more stuff to eat, he said it’s over and we told him that breakfast is until 10am and he said that previous customers ate everything, we told him that the bed include breakfast and he repeated that the breakfast is over and there isn’t more and we told him why they say that the breakfast is from 8am to 10am if before 10am there is not breakfast for more guests and he blamed the previous guests for eating everything, we told him that wasn’t our fault that they should have more food, and he, seeing our annoyance, told us that breakfast was a courtesy and not an obligation of the hostel Although we showed him that breakfast is included, he said that it did not matter what the app indicated that the breakfast is a courtesy. The next day we had to arrive early and make sure we can have breakfast, but we saw he did the same to another guest, when there was nothing for breakfast the guest asked him more stuff to eat and he told the guest that it was over and he only brought more coffee. he is only friendly when the room is going to be rented but after paying he doesn’t mind helping the guest, we made our complain with the owner and the another guy who work at evening and they apologized for the worker’s behavior. The owner approached us and told us that he had talked to him about the problem and asked him not to come the next day, he made us believe it was a kind of punishment for the problem, but later we found out the next day was his day off, it seems that the small guy is rude with the guests because the owner himself does not do anything to fix that.
The place is quiet and clean with a pool, jacuzzi and pool table and the room are comfortable with air conditioner.

IsraelThe AC is turned off from 11am to 22:00 pm, which makes the stay in your room very very hot. On top of that window was also difficult/impossible to open. The kitchen looks very old and could use a renovation.
Staff was very very helpful professional and nice.Through the hostel you can access certain shuttles and activities at a great price! Also the community you can join (via Whatsapp) is very helpful, but only in hebrew. Fresh breakfast was very nice. Lounging area was also nice
