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...).

ChinaThe room is big for one person. However it's quite old and a bit dark. There was a weird cracking sound with the pipe in the ceiling. Sounds like it's going to explode. Location is superb, just outside exit Y19. One shouldn't expect much at this price and location.

SwitzerlandReally good location close to the main station, airport mrt and both ximen and dihua street in walking distance. The bed was good. Nice public space area although maybe not a social hostel. The door frame was not very tall people friendly😆 But overall we would definitely come back. Very clean.

TaiwanMy bed's corresponding locker's key had been lost, this was said with a shrug and no other solutions for keeping my valuables safe were offered, thank goodness I didn't bring my computer with me on this trip. The staff was incredibly cold, even for Taipei/big capital city standards, made the whole atmosphere feel kind of apathetic, Taipei's grey skies are already enough of a downer without that :/
The bed was super comfortable, the wifi worked well, and the room was spacious and well ventilated, no mosquitoes. My room also had two toilets with showers, the location was great and coming in and out is easy. The common area is very nice.

United KingdomNo complaints really - could definitely hear a bit of noise in the room from other rooms, but not excessively and nothing some earplugs didn’t block out.
Great location, clean and comfortable rooms and a nice communal area. Also had a good kitchen and some free tea seemed to be provided. I got a private room and felt it was good value midweek, but on the weekends it shot up. Guess that’s normal for a big city. Staff were super friendly as well.

United StatesThe place is a little worn, as you might expect from a hostel but no problems at all with this place. We didn't use the washer/dryer or kitchen facilities but all seemed to be in good working order.
Great location near Taipei Main. The instructions provided made it easy to find. Room was large enough for the whole family and was totally quiet from outside noises. Shower was clean with good pressure and temperature.

Hong KongThe hostel is inside a building which looks quite old. But once you locate it, it is easy to find. As only shower is provided in my private room, with no shower curtain, water just spread around on the bathroom floor while bathing. It is better with curtain.
Staff is nice in general, especially a female staff looks cheerful. Just one to two minutes walk to nearest metro, which make it easy access to the express train to airport. Around three minutes walk to the nearest night market. Bed is fine. I also share a photo taken at a corner of the hostel lobby, with lots of travel info.

United KingdomIt’s very noisy when you keep window open as it’s in such a busy location. I guess it’s because I live in a quiet place & not used to big cities. It made me not wanting to return to Taipei at the end of my trip. But if you are used to big city, then it shouldn’t bother you.
It’s very close to MRT station when you travel from the airport, although the closet exit to the hostel doesn’t have elevator, so only suitable for those without heavy luggage. The exit with elevator is not too far from the hostel, maybe the hostel can suggest alternative route. It’s comfortable enough & has everything you need.
