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...).

NetherlandsI really recommend OC hostel to anyone! I would stay here myself again if I ever visit Taiwan again. The host King is really exceptional!So kind and welcoming. Really enjoyed the tea moment with you :) I had a private room and it was a good room. It was big, had silent enough AC and even a nice sitting corner. Bed was very comfortable. Opportunity for laundry was great!

FranceI had a fantastic stay at this hostel in Tainan! The host was incredibly welcoming and kind, making my experience even more enjoyable. The location is perfect—central and convenient for exploring the city. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend joining the tea tasting session with the host—it’s a unique and delightful experience! Would definitely stay here again.

FranceMinor element to have in mind No mirror in the room On the 4th floor. If you shower in the morning the pressure is low. It takes about 5 min to get to optimal pressure. I couldn't understand how to use the kettle so needed to go to the 1st floor to get water. Then to the second floor for hot water. Then to my room. But to be fair I did not really ask either.
Friendly staff. Big windows. Big room. Quiet place. Comfortable beddings. Do check the jewelry shop next to them "MenWen" it's so cute they have a "harry potter" like design

NetherlandsMy stay at OC Hostel was outstanding! The room was very spatious and nice and the host was extremely helpful and friendly. He helped me with my taxis and HSR tickets and invited me to try some really good tea. The location of the hostel is nice as well: in a cosy alley, close to Chikan Tower and only 15 min walk from the station. Can definitely recommend!

BulgariaBear in mind the single room is on the third floor and there is no elevator! Not an issue for me, because it also provides you with more privacy, but good to mention.
The hostel is located in a very central part of Tainan, close to many shops, restaurants and well-connected to other places of interest around town. The owner is very kind and knowledgeable, we had very nice and informative chats. I stayed in the single room on the top floor and it felt like a homestay, the room was spacious and quiet, AC was working perfectly and I had a very good rest at night. Totally recommended if you're headed to Tainan!
