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 StatesAt the time I was there there were several things that were broken or unavailable. I’m sure the communal fridge is fixed by now and the bank has sent a credit card machine.
The hostel was good. I met some other travelers and got some good information about other places to visit.

Denmark- Minimum privacy in the room as beds are quite close to each other - Only possible to pay with Mastercard as I remember. VISA is not common in Suriname
- Very friendly staff - A/C room is good, as it is hot in Paramaribo - Good kitchen facilities - Possible to buy drinks at the hostel - Good and clean toilet facilities - Big common room with TV - Bicycle rental - Power outlet at each bed - Lockers in the room

SloveniaThey could have some more updated info about the bus schedules and taxi choices.
The best place to stay in Paramaribo as a budget traveler. Simi’s eethuis ( definitely go there for breakfast/ early lunch) is just up the street. lt is near a lot of things. We stayed there 3 times during our trip. The staff is nice as well.

United States(see my other reviews - I stayed here three times) it’s minor stuff though! overall it’s a great property and a good place to stay in Paramaribo
the ac room is incredible! it’s huge, has its own balcony, and private bathroom and shower. the ac works great. it overlooks the front of the hostel. yes it’s more expensive than the other rooms but way more comfortable too. and still affordable overall. the location of course is incredible, close to all the top sights. and souposo, a really delicious restaurant, is downtown be street to your right if you’re facing out of the hostel.

GuyanaBathroom floor was very dirty. The AC was leaking a lot of water and did not cool the room down. Building is wooden so don’t expect any good sleep because it’s very loud. Lots of loud footsteps and slamming doors. Could not sleep and I am not a light sleeper either.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Balcony was nice. Mattress was covered in plastic to prevent bed bugs.

AustriaLoved everything.
The best accomodation for travellers in all of the Guyanias. The only hostel too but it's up there with the best and I've stayed at hundreds of hostels. Nice chill out areas downstairs and outside in the back yard. Book exchange, some classic video games. Couches. The dorms only have 3 beds and single beds without bunks which is fantastic. Very clean, organized and showers are the same. In the exact location you want to be in walking distance to many of the sights and good restaurants. Towels included and keys for each room which is fantastic. The owner Jan is putting a lot of effort into the set up and management of the hostel. He's very involved in the day to day management and customer experience. I stayed here 3 separate times as i travelled throughout the region and the hostel alone will have you hanging around in paramaribo longer than you expected.
