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...).

NetherlandsIt isn't the newest of hostel. The bedroom is excellent, the common room is great, but the shower and toilet are really old. They are as clean as can be, but if you like clean, this might not be the hostel for you.
Great atmosphere! People were really sociable and from all walks of life. It isn't a party hostel so at night you can just play some games or go to bed, or whatever. Lovely beach nearby (very relaxed & not too busy).

United KingdomNothing - can't fault it.
Loved this hostel! Was a bit unsure as its been many years since I stayed in a dorm, but this was a great experience. The dorms are spacious and beds are really comfy, bigger than standard with a privacy curtain. The aircon made it comfortable to sleep and it was lovely & clean. The breakfast is amazing, fruit plate, toast, mini cakes & choice of egg plus tea,coffee & juice. Located just a 5 min walk to the beach, everyone was respectful and friendly. As a solo female traveller no longer in her 20's, I can't recommend this place enough!!

Super nice hostel. It’s a great place to meet people. The staff is super friendly and welcoming and they serve a great free breakfast in the morning. Love the little details like a drink with your checkin and popcorn all day long.

Location is great, rooms are clean and safe, there is a small locker outside the rooms. Bathrooms and showers clean. The staff helps with everything you might need. There is really good free breakfast and coffee, tea, cookies and stuff for free all day. They sell food which is delicious and very reasonably priced! Everything was amazing!

IrelandThere was only one toilet and shower on the floor I was on. I had to queue for the toilet quite often. I found it very hot/humid in the stair/bathroom/shower areas. The air con is switched off from 10am until 4pm (which seems to be pretty standard in the area). There are fans on in the common areas during this time but not in the dorms so it's really not an option to enter the dorms during this time. There was no locker in the room for your stuff so sometimes felt bags could be in the way.
Staff were absolutely fantastic and so helpful. The food was brilliant. The hostel is set up really well for socialising. The beds have curtains and have a good amount of space for storing some of your stuff.

Best hostel I've stayed in so far. Tea and a snack on arrival. The rooms are nice and clean and as social or private as you would like. Staff are amazing and can help with anything, I booked scooters and my onward travel through them. The free breakfast is an absolute winner - toast and banana bread, fruit and choice of egg. Short walk to the beach. Be sure to head to Aleena's across the road for cake in the evening! Rooms are secure with keycard locks. There is a great social vibe to this place too.

United Kingdomoverall very run down, room was dirty, bedding had stains all over it. Paint was flaking off the bed and ceiling. nowhere to store your luggage just a *tiny* locker provided that would fit your phone in. There was an awful smell in the corridors like stale urine/drains. needs a good kick of paint and a good clean.
the 2 things we liked: the breakfast which was free, you get fresh fruit and your choice of eggs. You can also have unlimited toast, banana bread, tea, coffee and juice. the location, close to the beach, lots of restaurants on the doorstep.

One of the BEST hostels I’ve stayed at in Thailand! It’s very clean, beds are comfy and the social area is a great size. They even have Netflix which is perfect for rainy days! The complimentary breakfast is such good value for money - eggs cooked to order, a fruit plate per person, toast, tea/coffee/juice, and small cakes (banana muffin is a must try)! What makes this hostel so amazing though, is the incredibly hardworking staff there from 7am-11pm - Ra, Tone and Jenny! Ra is front of house and really puts her heart into making your stay an amazing time. Biscuits and drink on arrival, advice on what to do/see on the island, and just overall bringing a smile each and everyday. I would recommend this hostel to anyone staying in Koh Lanta!!!

United StatesCredit card machine "not working." Bring a LOT of baht for tours etc or find peace with outrageous fees at nearby ATMs. Facilities could benefit from more drying racks for guest clothes and towels. No outdoor space for drying, and beach/island destination generates a lot of wet belongings. One small rack per floor, shared by multiple dorms, isn't enough.
Incredible staff- friendly, hardworking, helped everyone with bookings for tours, scooter rental, and onward travel. Outstanding breakfast. Thank you for a great stay!

New ZealandEveryone was sick in the hostel, coughing and sneezing all night and on the breakfast food. We checked out early to save ourselves getting sick. Also everything is concrete and smells like sweat. Bathroom is flooded with water and feels dirty. Rating was very high and didn't meet expectations. No room for luggage so those are on the bed with you

Czech RepublicHostel is divided into two buildings, one of them where I stayed is bit older so have some issues, not good ventilation in common areas and bathrooms. Electronic system to open doors is quite noisy so can be disturbing for light sleepers/if next to the door.
Above all, the customer service I got here! The couple who runs the place are two of nicest and most helpful people I've met in Thailand, they work super hard and still do above maximum to make their guests happy and enjoy their stay! Good location close to very nice and calm beach, comfortable rooms (curtains, individual lights). Great breakfast and even perks like free popcorn :)

This was my favourite hostel in my 3 months travelling SE Asia. The people running ut are so nice and kind and extremely helpful with booking trips. There is free coffee, tea and popcorn which was a real treat and a 3 course breakfast in the morning was outstanding! There is a great common room so you will never be alone and the dorms are very private with curtains around the bed, all facilities were very clean also. 10/10 - the only hostel to stay on Koh Lanta!
