Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

I liked the location, it’s near all the main attractions and there’s a bus stop nearby which can take you Hwangnidan Street in a few stops. The lady working there was very warm and friendly too, she was always checking up on me through the app throughout the day. (I missed all the messages though because I didn’t open the app until night time 😭, but she was concerned about me when it started raining and asked if I had an umbrella, and she was kind enough to let me know my room could be ready early!)

Hana is an incredible host! She went above and beyond to assist me when I had questions. The location is great for seeing the tombs, and there was a great communal area to hang out on the main floor.

The price is too high for a hostel. It could be maybe some breakfast included. In a room I would recommend to put some lamps for down beds, IT is very dark there and curtains if there are more ppl. I was very lucky, the host put me in a separated dorm and I was on my own. So sweet of her.
The host is super nice and helpful. She speaks English and replies to all questions. The hostel has a beautiful lobby. The location is perfect. Beds are very comfy. I saw how they clean rooms, they pay attention to all details.

It would be great to have a bigger towel and the lounge area misses some chairs or cushions.
The room was very clean, with comfortable bed and pillow. It’s in a good location but quiet. Very easy to get to many sights. The owner of the hostel is very nice and friendly, answered the questions promptly and gave me a map of the city.

the only bad thing I can think of is that there is no laundry machine but there is a laundromat 20 minutes walk from the place that is open 24/7
It's an amazing place! The staff is great, the location is central, the room was nice, the bed was comfortable, the lounge was cosy and nice, and there was a nice kitchen. it was very clean and everything about the experience was just lovely! Also, if you are hungry at night and you are lazy, there is a good fried chicken place right next door that's open late.

The shower took a good 5 minutes to get warm, but it's very minor
The guesthouse feels so warm and homely, with a well equipped kitchen, very relaxing common area. Room and bathroom were spotless It is ideally located near the main tourist area and public transport. The host was super nice, helpful and communicated really well. My room was a quadruple but I was the only one there, still not 100% sure it's a room or a dorm though... Definitely one of my top stays in Korea!

I think its used as a hostel, ie groups of friends can book a room with 4 beds. I wasnt really clear on this, until I asked. But I had my own room, so I was happy.
Great place. Clean comfortable. The lady who ran it, Hanna was really pleasant and happy. I stayed in a room with 2 bunk beds. But it was a private room. Its well located with many bars and restaurants nearby. It was quite.
