How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We had room 3 and it was a lot bigger than expected - large kitchen / dining area , and two balconies (one shared with one other room, I think, but the sea-front balcony was private. With sunset views) Decor etc had a hostel vibe , rather than hotel, but for the price we were very pleased with it

Perhaps the location is not that central so you have to walk a little bit but not big deal. Perhaps kitchen could be a bit bigger as the hostel is big. I don’t think it’s good value for money as it’s quite an expensive hostel.
Great rooms with comfortable beds and a curtain for privacy. Not only that but there’s a thick curtain also at the main entrance of the room which makes sure there’s privacy from the kitchen and common area outside and we sleep in complete darkness - a nice touch indeed. Bathroom was clean and I liked the separate toilets. Kitchen is fully equipped and easy to use. Nice vibes, so you can make friends in the common area

AWESOME PLACE! This was our favorite stay during our trip to Croatia. The location is perfect, the views from the balcony are stunning. Bartul helped us with everything we needed. The apartment was huge with plenty of space in the rooms and living room/kitchen. The water was always hot. You can rent a boat and moped through them. We did both and they were our top 2 activities in Croatia. Don't hesitate to stay here. 100% staying here again when I return to Hvar.

Dinner time can be hectic in the kitchen if everyone is cooking!
This hostel was super social in my experience! Went for day adventures and to nearby beaches with people I met the same day. There’s also a bar crawl every night led by an awesome volunteer, which is a nice way to go out to the town at night.

The kitchen facilities for the private rooms need a kettle and a toaster …. I had to keep going to the next door property to use.
Lovely staff, great room with a balcony (even if it was too hot to use it much :) …. Comfy bed, kitchen facilities and private bathroom. 10min walk down the hill to the Port and main centre - 10min uphill walk to the hostel not too bad except in the heat of midday but lovely and cool when you get to your private air con room.

The common room was oddly located outside the hostel and not available 24/7 due to quiet hours at ~10pm. This made it difficult to find a space where you can meet and get to know fellow travellers.
The room was spacious, clean and had more amenities that we needed including a kitchenette and two balconies. The staff were incredibly kind and the location was superb, overlooking the beautiful Hvar waters.

If you go as a solo travel, it is better to go on August or beginning of September. I went in October and there were few people in the Island. On the contrary if you go with a couple end of September or first week of October is perfect because is very quiet.
The Staff is great. Very supportive and kind. The location is perfect. The room and the view. Advice: rent a motorbike to visit all the island

Does not have isolation of sound between the rooms, and the bed was not that super comfortable. However, this is compensated by the location, view and staff
Near the city of Hvar, also with a nice view towards the sea. It is good for a really nice stay as a solo traveler. Every night there is a meeting between the people in the Hostel, and the staff is very welcoming.
