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 reviewIt's a hostel so do not expect something extravagant, however it's clean, spacious and it's situated in a walking distance from the lake, other pubs ( as it has its own pub/restaurant downstairs) restaurants and supermarkets. It has such facilities as kitchen where you can prep your own food, however the food served at the restaurant downstairs is exceptional. We regret that we had only eaten there once, burgers are perfect same as ribs and chicken. Portions are massive. Staff really friendly. It has a parking so if you travel by car you will.not have any issues finding parking nearby. We had really nice time there and we will be back.

Verified reviewWe had room number 15 for two nights. The room was spacious with comfortable bed, spotless linens, large desk and chair. In the bathroom we even had a hairdryer. A very pleasant surprise was the air conditioning in the room, which made our stay extremely pleasant in these hot days. Very friendly and responsive staff. A big plus was also the late check in until 00.00. For us it was a great experience!
It would help a lot if there was a hand soap in the bathroom.

Nobody from the staff speaks English (how is that possible in 2024???). Property was dirty, smell was so bad that after one night we needed to change the room.

Verified reviewThe location and price are amazing! Very relaxed place to stay and perfectly adequate for myself and my daughters to rest up after a day in lake Garda. There was a very wobbly pool table in the bar which was thankfully free to use , and Mt daughters loved it even though the balls had a mind of their own!
It was perfect for what we needed travelling on a budget, the shower was a bit leaky but that was probably more annoying for the cleaners than us !

Verified reviewThey don´t serve breakfast, but food was so good at restaurant! I wouldn´t say 5 star hotel. More like bakcpackes place :) Service was so lovely! And there is a bus stop near to get to the north and south side of Lake Garda. At Sunday near here was no breakfast service anywhere, because all the places was closed. Other days we went with my father to gasoline station 200m from hostel. Service in there was also wonderful and helpful. Either people didn´t speak that much english, we always got the information what was needed. And food! Only good vibes! Was nice to be here. Would be more awesome to be there at season time! Thank you so much! Was easy to walk around 10 minutes to the lake side from Route 77. I do recommend to rent a car, so you can go to this little side routes and see amazing views <3 Garda Lake Rent Salo will deliver you car wherever you are and they are trustfull.
Bed´s (the one we where not using) was´nt so clean. Also (italian maybe don´t think our way) was thinking why no one told us where to get breakfast. But we manage it our self, And no bad feelings from here. We liked it!

Verified reviewThe view was okay and the room was clean. Parking is provided and is free.
I have stayed at many hostels with my family but this is the first one I would not recommend. Communication with the host was difficult. She was hard to reach by phone and did not respond to messages. The hostel is only open during restaurant hours. Meaning no one is there to talk to if you arrive to town early. All rooms are smoking rooms. It is loud at night and as per other reviews it is hot at night with no way to turn the heater down. Also be aware that there is no hand soap provided and only one roll of toilet paper provided as well. The kitchen is used as a smoking hangout so there are cigarette butts scattered over the room as well as old alcohol drinks left from the night before. The kitchen is also extremely dirty and not stocked well. There are 3 pans that aren't clean and probably left by someone else staying there, also there is a hot plate and one fork. There is dirt and old food all over the kitchen counters and sink. This place is cheap but they took it too the next level. Spend a few extra dollars and find a better place.
Dear customer check in is from 18 you arrive at 16.30 the restaurant was close from 16. I went at my home for 40 minute you call me at 16.30 and I give you the room 1 hour before the check in time. But maybe you didn’t understand. This is a lesson for me check in is from 18 like your reservation. Sorry for the kitchen is dirty because there is worker we clean all day

Verified reviewBar and restaurant were top and also parking facilities.
No lift, no towels, rooms need renovation and certainly a bit of investment in shower cubicles.
