Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

MexicoAt night it is a little bit noisy cuz the bar that is in front of the hostel. You have to pay a 500THB or leave your passport as a " deposit ". Once you return the towel and the key you will get your deposit back. 1 or 2 guys from the staff were rude..........but maybe it is part of been thai.
It was clean, the beds were comfortable, the aircon was perfect the bar and the facilities were good, and the pool was nice and clean. It has a really good location, they have plenty of activities, You can meet good people from everywhere, . If you travel solo this is the place to stay....

United KingdomThe dorm was only cleaned when a new guest checked in. The bedding and towels smelt a little musty. No hand wash in the dorm bathroom.
Really enjoyed my stay at Mad Monkey. The female dorm was clean, staff are friendly and the facilities are great. The hostel is a short walk away from Patong beach and there’s many shops/restaurants in the area.

New ZealandIt is really pricey tbh, can get hotels for much cheaper. It also could’ve been a bit cleaner considering the high price. Also, some rooms had soap in the bathrooms, some didn’t?
Comfiest bed I’ve slept on in Thailand! The facilities are great, it is pretty clean and it is quite social. I met great people in my rooms.

GermanyThey didn’t clean in 4 days (not even empty the bin) It was very dirty, smelled like pee, the shampoo and conditioner as well as the toilet were broken, no refill. Aircon was so cold that the wall and the floor got completely wet, even if we put it on 25/26 degrees. Also the people were really disrespectful. They had s*x while I was in the room and left there condoms on the floor. Wow. You have to know that it’s party people there and they exactly behave like this. Suits to Phuket at all. Music is load whole day until midnight.
Nice common areas (pool, bar, lobby, gym and roofterrace. Room has enough space. Bed was comfy. If you are looking for a hostel to party this is the right place to stay. Have several community events

IndiaEverything was fine
I normally avoid staying at hostels as I am a solo traveller and very particular about cleanliness, however in my past solo travels realised there is no social connect. This time also I had booked a hotel then cancelled and decided to stay at Mad monkey hostel and don't regret it a bit. The rooms are just used for sleeping, washroom are clean and good air conditioning. What makes MAD Monkey different from the rest is the lively atmosphere and the hosts who are always welcoming and interacting with a smile. Special shout out to Lotty & Tom for making my stay comfortable at Phuket.

United KingdomNothing about the hostel I would 100% stay here again if I was staying in Patong. One note is I arrived late and was slightly worried as I had messages a few times about late check in via booking.com as it stated on here check in was until 11.00pm and I never had a response BUT I reached out to the mad monkey website and they assured me that they have staff on 24/7 and that they would inform the staff of my late arrival so it was no issue at all.
I'm never disappointed when staying in a mad monkey I find them to be modern with everything you could need as a backpacker, the rooms and lockers were big, the air con was great they let guest control it themselves (some hostels tend to put it on at a certain time and leave it which I don't like) the pool area is nice a bit on the smaller side and shaded in the afternoon by the building, not a negative just something to note if you are working on your tan but that being said there is a roof top where you can also hangout ! The staff did a great job as usual it getting guest involved and having a good time. I love mad monkey hostels as a solo traveller when ever I am staying in an area that has one I will always choose to stay there.

United KingdomWe booked 4 beds in one room but they had to split us up as there was no space. so that was not ideal but other than that everything else was great.
Probably the most comfortable bunk bed i’ve had in a hostel and really nice place with pool and bar it that is what I would expect for the price.

Like it’s so stupid to not allow being food, people have many issues with food
