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):
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.).

United KingdomMost people are passing though so its not social/lively but didnt bother me.
Loved my stay! The hostel is lovely, its so clean, well laid out, good wifi and aircon, nice terrace, lockers. Family who run/own it are so friendly and helpful. Its just off the main street so feels a little quieter but still close to shops and food. Also offered laundry and Komodo day trip, and the water refill is great. Felt safe and secure.

The team is so helpful and friendly and take really good care of you! Other travelers here seem genuine and interesting and the facilities have everything you need.

RomaniaThe best quality hostel from LBJ. And i stayed in 4 until find this last one. Not only clean, but very special clean, with clean, exquisite people. It is not locat located on the main street but is 3 min close walk. Good, CLEAN area, not with all the slum/favela area near the sea full of dirt and rats where other histels are. (That was the reason i quit all seaside hostels and find this one just a little bit on the hill). 5 star and a big Thank You to the host- amazing lady.

United StatesThere were no other travelers staying in my room so privacy was not an issue, but not all of the locks on the lockers worked to store things in the cubbies, so if there were other people, not sure how safe and secure my belongings would have been.
Nice hostel facilities. Bed was comfortable for a bunk bed. Charging stations at every bed. Adequate amount of showers and toilet facilities. Very clean. Location was a tad off the beaten path but still within walking distance to all of the town. I liked that the hostel organized a tour as well to see Komodo National Park.

United KingdomStools on terrace can be a little bit uncomfortable but there are plenty of beanbags too. Some of the lockers are broken but it was okay because there were 10 lockers between 4 of us
The cleanest hostel I have ever seen! The ladies do a very good job it almost feels like you’re in a hotel they are also very helpful they can do your laundry for a good price. Bed very comfortable. Location perfect - but you do get a good (small) workout every time you go up the stairs from the main road.
