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.).

Verified reviewGreat service, very very nice hosts. Big and clean bed
The bed is comfortable and it was quiet when I was there but there are too many beds in the same room and the room looks like it used to be a waiting room, it kind of felt like sleeping in a waiting room. But it was still comfortable.

Verified reviewI had a good stay here, everything was very close as the location is central. I booked the tour to Bromo here and I had the best time! The owner and his son were the loveliest people I met, they have beautiful energy!
It is next to a big street and motorbikes can be VERY loud throughout the day and night, so bring ear plugs!

Verified reviewClose to central, kind and friendly staff, travelling as a solo woman and felt totally safe and cared for at all times, the coffee is great, and I like the retro style of the lobby! Beds are comfy w light and curtains. I have been travelling for ages so mostly kept to myself and used the downstairs area to work and was quite content to be there 🫶🏼 only moved because I needed a room for longer stay and work. stayed for ten days, highly recommend for a peaceful stay w great coffee and warm hosts

Verified reviewJon and his family did their up most to make us feel welcome and comfortable! It really feels like a home away from home. Lovely coffee served in the downstairs area. As central as can be, and the hosts are always available to help with bookings/planning/advice. Ended up staying an extra night as we didn't want to leave.

Verified reviewIt was clean, the access was superb, close to many restaurants, close to Malang station.
They didn’t prepare any liquid soap at the time but on the second day, one of their staff offered me some small soaps (which was nice) but i had already my own liquid soaps, so that was okay (because I’ve already read some reviews)

Verified reviewthe facilities were good and booking a tour through them was great. the owner and his family were really kind and helpful, and the location is excellent.
I booked a scooter driver for the day through them and on the way back, he stopped us far from the hostel in the pouring rain and made some very uncomfortable sexual comments. I did not feel safe or comfortable, and even less so since he knew where I was sleeping and the rooms have no lock. if you're a solo female traveller please be careful. I don't blame the hostel owners and it's still a decent place.

Verified reviewI can't slate this place too much as it was a last minute booking and was all I cd get. I don't usually stay in dorms either and not big/mixed ones either so can't let that influence my review For me I would say everything was ok... Shower and toilets were fine Beds had curtains lamps and plug points which is what you need Cafe downstairs In a great area for food and rainbow village only 900m away
Majority people who stay here are part of the Bromo tours and need to get up really early to start. Most people seemed to respect that when lights were off or dorm bed curtains closed - except 2 people who turned every light on and talked loudly for an hour on arrival. Yes, was only 7pm - but some consideration is key when in dorms Not the hostels fault I may add here - just other travellers
