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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Great social hostel. Different mix of ages and friendly vibes. One of my favourite hostels in Thailand. It can be relaxed upstairs on the balcony as downstairs they usually play loud music but it gets turned off pretty early so you can sleep with no issues. The staff were super friendly and nice.

ItalyBecause it was full moon I think I payed way too much for what the hostel gives you, I mean it’s a hostel…
Everything was clean and in order. Location was great, there’s a beach right in front so walking distance. But it’s necessary to rent a scooter to go around the island. Good communal chilling area on the terrace to meet people. Since it was full moon they organized a family dinner which was perfect to gather everyone before heading to the party.

FranceThe hostel is nice but there is only for female 3 toilets and 3 bathroom for 2 dorms of 10 ppl and 1 dorm of 4 ppl same for male. Seems that it's clean only once a day ( early morning ) so comon bathroom ( of women ) was really dirty. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe it was because of full moon and hostel was full ! The mattress is super soft and was a bit hurting but when I said it to the team they said it's new mattress and offer me to change it ( see the team is nice ! ) but they didn't change it and I didn't want to ask because obviously I was sleeping there only 2 days. The outside alchol is prohibited in the hostel - neither wine even though they do not sell it. It's because they have a bar but the beer cost 80 bats and beer in 7/11 just few meters away cost 40.. and you are not allowed to put alcohol in the fridge ( not sure why if you are not drinking here ). Regarding the room it was OK but needs to put curtain also on the other side because I've paid more for a lower bed with curtain but there was curtain only on one side, the other side was in front of the door without curtain. it's better than nothing but still. The 4 bedroom are near by the terrace but noise is ok. :)
Team is amazing ! They are super Nice they will help you for everything : I though I forgot my hat they replied to me and try to find it, they explain me main center of interest on the island, they propose scooter, taxi etc ! They organize also a diner for full moon which is absolutely nice ! Food is good and unlimited, they provide color painting and book the taxi for 300 bats all. Perfect to socialized. They have nice common areas : Playstation, plants everywhere, tables, games. Free water and hot water. I spend a good time. Tips : book in advance for full moon seems that they are always full !

NetherlandsThere weren’t many people in the hostel but that was because there was no full moon party or jungle party at that time.
This was the best hostel I have ever stayed in comfort and clean wise. The rooms were very clean and the matras was soft. They had a super nice roof/balcony terrace and a chill area downstairs. They had playstation with games, youtube and netflix. They also have free water, a fridge and they give you a towel. They have separate bathrooms for men and women, they we’re wonderfully clean. The staff was too sweet, the first night a stafmember lended me her scooter so I could go out to eat somewhere. Another girl gave me chocolate when I was on my period, such a sweatheart. And they helped me book my next trip (boat and taxi). It was lovely Thankyou!
