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 reviewBeautiful location right in the middle of Old Town. I arrived early after some rough travel and the room was already ready for me. Staff are friendly and provided a great overview of the area and suggestions for places to go/see. Beds were super comfy and private. I had a great sleep! Wish I had stayed longer!

Verified reviewLocation and people
The internet is really bad. I would give this place a 10, but they don't have a good internet connection. If they can't find a better local provider, they should get starlink.

Verified reviewThe hostel is really clean and welcoming. You have a large underbed locker (padlocks provided) and a curtain for privacy. The staff are really friendly and helpful even providing beach towels if needed. The hostel also owns a Prosciutteria that you get discount in and it’s amazing! Hostels in the region are pricier than some other Balkan countries but this one was worth the money.

Verified reviewPerfect location, right in the heart of old town budva, with a lovely view from the shared balcony. Very countable facilities - the space below the beds fit my very large luggage and backpack, everything! And they provide a lock, shower towel and blankets. The electric socket is at every bed and there are curtains for privacy! The bathrooms were super clean and comfortable too! Very social hostel - sangria night was super fun! And everyone rallied to go out to a club on top of the hill afterwards! Instantly made friends to go to the beautiful beaches with. The host milos is superrr helpful and knowledgeable, gave us all the best spots and exactly how to get there! My favourite place was queens beach and milocer beach. So I highly recommend going to the sveti Stephen peninsula and beach hopping, through the milocer national park and spending as much time as you can on king or queens beaches! The sveti Nikola/ Hawaii beach island was also very nice. Mogren beach is very pretty but gets extremely crowded! I loved budva, I was so sad to leave!! Will definitely be back and will stay in the same hostel again!
The bathrooms were perfectly equipped - toilet, sink with space for toiletries, the shower had spots to put your things and there was a rack for your towel and dry space for you clothes! However, there were only 3 bathrooms I believe for everyone, so sometimes it got a little bit busy! But I didn’t have too much of an issue waiting for a bathroom to become free, so no complaints :)

Verified reviewGood, small hostel in the old town. Milos was outstanding when I arrived and ensured that I had a plan to make the most of my time in the town. The room and common area were okay but I was out most of the time so I didn't really make the best use of them.
