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 are 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 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.).

This hostel has such a peaceful, homely vibe with spacious beds that had blackout curtains, clean bathrooms and great areas to sit and relax. It is also conveniently located near the attractions of the old town, the bus stop to Karon/Kata or Patong and numerous cafes/restaurants.

IndiaThe lockers could be made a little more spacious. Though I was able to squeeze in all my luggage with bags but it was not easy each time. Just for reference I had one small trolley bag and one laptop backpack.
The bed was clean; the toilet and bathing area was also clean. Loved the aesthetic of the hostel the cute little garden with a swing in it. Also the people running the place were quite helpful. I got quite late in returning during Songkran festival and wasn't able to figure out how to enter the main gate I called the reception and it was answered quickly and I was helped . A lady named M was also very helpful and kind.. all in all I loved my stay here... Security as a solo girl traveller also I felt was exceptional. Also the kitchen is available so you can cook some ready to eat meals if u have them on u .

United KingdomNo air con in hallways and bathroom, which is usually fine but it could get really really hot, especially in the bathroom. Also, the keys given for the lockers are not unique, aka you can unlock any locker with your own key, and vice versa, which didn’t make me feel very safe leaving my valuables in there.
Amazing location, great price, comfy beds, fridge and kitchen. Really nice interior design too, especially the netted chillout area on the first floor. Phuket Old Town hostels generally don’t seem too social but this hostel was decent for meeting people due to the communal spaces.

United KingdomProvides a Doona rather than a sheet. Quite common is SE Asia, even with the aircon, the doona is hot!
Staff were super helpful. The location is great, so close to all the shops and restaurants. Shoes off make it nice and clean. Bathrooms are downstairs and has beautiful vines growing through the walls so it feels earthy. A good amount of fans everywhere. Good WiFi. The private room is super comfortable and spacious.

United KingdomThe WIFI was rather poor in my private room, although I could sit out in the common area for most tasks so it was not really an issue, just meant I couldn't watch anything online come bed time, but again it wasnt an issue, most areas it worked well enough.
The location is almost right in the centre, but just outside perhaps 2-3 minutes walking, but its on a quiet street and the rooms are set back from the front so its very quiet inside the building and rooms. The price was fair given the location and it is peak season almost. Free tea and coffee and water station was helpful, overall a pretty nice chill hostel

GermanyThe only thing that comes to my mind is to let know in advance the options to arrive to the hostel and which bus stop is the closest one. Apart from this small detail, everything was great
All the staff in general were super nice. They had always the best recommendations and perfect vibe. I wished I could have had more time to spend with Mai. I really enjoyed the chats with her. Looking forward to go back. Thanks for everything, I could not have such an amazing time in Phuket without you and please keep the great work.
