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.).

PhilippinesI wasn't able to extend my stay for a night, they wont allow me even if I saw online that there's an available slot for the hostel, the available slot costs higher maybe because of the influx of tourists that's why they opt not to extend me and wait for other tourist to check in instead to earn more money I guess instead of me just paying for extra.

New ZealandInitially hard to find. It's not the best-signposted place, and we definitely walked past it twice as grumpy, tired travellers at 11pm. Kitchen facilities, while great, consisted only of a hot/cold water station, a sink, and a microwave. Which for most travellers might be enough. Eating out in Singapore can be cheap (SG$4 - SG$10) if you go to the right food courts. Also, because there weren't many kitchen amenities, it meant that fridge space was plentiful (which was lovely). There was only one washer and dryer in the laundry area, which is also used by the staff for sheets. But if you get in, you get in and it's great.
Fantastic location, situated within 10min walking distance of three different train lines. Also, a couple bus stations and several 7Elevens in close proximity. Kitchen was always kept clean and ordered, and bathrooms were regularly cleaned. In the laundry area, there is a cute little laundry liquid disposal where you can purchase two packets of laundry liquid at a time for SG$1 Each bed was assigned their own locker, which has two coat hangers in it. The key comes with the room key. Great staff always very willing to help out with positive attitudes. No judgement was passed the times I was an idiot and needed one of them to open the room for me. While check out is at 12pm, the staff let us leave our bags in the common area, and chill until we were able to check in to our next place.

VietnamI didn't know that there is no lift. We will have to carry luggages to the room by stair. The ceiling fan is dangerously too close to the top bunk.
Wifi signal is rather good and they allow the air con all days [it doesn't automatically switched off when you leave the room] I think that's fair, because the room has neither window nor any means of ventilation.

United KingdomLudicrous price for a dorm bed, but that's more to do with Singapore than the hostel.
Clean (once you get off the rather dirty looking entry stairwell), well organised hostel in a great location. Lots of great food options on the doorstep.

ThailandThere was only one toilet on my whole floor so if it was occupied you had to go to the upper floor
The beds were okay, and the temperature in the room was really nice. The staff was helpful and the location is also good because you have public transportation nearby.

Philippines- No curtains on the beds so not much privacy - The type of ladder on the bed is slippery and makes it quite hard to climb up the top bunk. - The shower floors are not separated and they don't have their own drains. Even if you're the only 1 bathing, the whole bathroom can still get floody and wet - Needed to climb 2 flights of stairs to the reception, plus another one to get to the rooms.
- 4 beds in 1 room (all female), quite spacious inside - Bright and comfy common area with refrigerator, hot/cold drinking water, microwave - Lots of bathrooms - Has coin laundry and dryer - each bed has a keyed locker - My friend got a problem with her locker and some forgotten items but they were so kind to let us know about it. - There are restaurants just below the hostel.

TaiwanToiletries and hair dryer are not provided. Dirty stairs. It's just beside the temple, so it could be noisy if you are a light sleeper.
Pretty close to multi mrt and bus stops, which are accessible anywhere around the city. Staffs are nice, inside the dorm was pretty clean. Hotels are quite expensive in Singapore, it would be better if they improve a bit more the facilities.

DenmarkIt is next to a Buddhist temple and because of that it was noisy with bells and gong-sounds from 4-5 am. If you’re a light sleeper you might have a hard time sleeping. Also there were no events at the hostel so if you’re looking for that this is not the place.
It is close to multiple metro stations and great food places. There is a great common room as well and the staff are very helpful. The bathrooms were in good condition.
