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.).

BangladeshThe bed and floor wasn't as clean as expected especially since you can't wear shoes inside.
Great value for its price. Good enough facilities and location. But the best part is that it's relaxing and a great hub for meeting fellow travellers. My bed was close to Brian's bar which gets noisy at night but in a good way. It grows on you. I hope this place stays the same next time i visit. Also, I saw three chunky fluff balls. Apparently they don't get along lol These fellas were chill and moody af walking around the place 🙃

AustraliaThere is a bar connected to the hostel so if you're not out partying the noise can be very loud until 12-1am every night (except Wednesdays). Easily fixed with ear plugs.
Privacy, lockers available if you wish, great working AC to combat the humid temperatures, close to the main road and easily accessible, friendly hostel cats, helpful staff. Much cheaper to book direct as figured out when I extended.

ChinaEverything is super good here. The only problem is the bar . I am not party person. And normally go to sleep early . So for me the bar is a little bit noisy. But if you enjoy the night time with friends of course this place is your best choice.
Very good location. Easy to find delicious food or market. Just walk 10 minutes to the beach. And June is a great person. Very helpful and feel most welcomed. There's a big yard, if you can wake up early and enjoy coffee with the fresh air there. You can get all basic things here. Locker hairdryer hot water laundry........the most lovely part is the cats. I guess they are the true bosses of this place. The bed is cozy with the curtains so you have your privacy . Anyway a good place to meet some interesting people and just relax. Thanks for everything.

United KingdomOnly thing to improve could be to give towels, these are available at an extra cost. The only other thing to mention-not the hostel fault at all but call to prayer is quite loud in the morning and did wake us up most mornings with earplugs.
Super friendly owners of the hostel that are very accommodating and easy to organise boat trips and onward travel! The rooms are quite basic but perfect for what was needed. The bar is really great and sociable but also away from our room so didn’t affect our sleep.

RussiaThe hostel is shabby and has seen better days, the kitchen and the common areas have a lot of clutter, the bathroom is clean, but not well-maintained. Overall, okay for the price.

CanadaHard to talk with the staff before 2pm (I think they are sleeping before that aha). The bar just besides the room is often noisy until 1am (people screaming from karaoke...) which makes it difficult to sleep.
Nice and social hostel. The beds are very comfortable and very intimate (like a little capsule). Nice common areas and bar. Water filler and basics things to cool in the common kitchen. Well situated (in town near the beach). Many seats to chill / basketball ring to play.

Chilethe mattress on my bed (209 i believe) was really worn out so it had a hole in the middle, my back hurt every morning. the manager is not always there and no one else is so if you need something you’ll have to wait a very long time. he also was always with a long face when i asked about anything
i liked the fact that they had common spaces for travelers to meet and a basic kitchen with a fridge

United KingdomThe bathrooms have lots of ants and mosquitoes, the bar is very loud til late so make sure you bring ear plugs. The bar doesn’t have any soft drinks you can only buy alcohol? A few old, weird people were staying in the hostel which made it a bit uncomfortable. Make sure you request a bottom bunk as the air con doesn’t reach the top bunks very well and all the mattresses dip SO bad in the middle, it was like sleeping on paper. Only had air con in the rooms so as soon as you step out to socialise/shower/go to the toilet it’s instantly boiling.
The curtains on the bed, super close to the beach. The staff are so friendly and always happy to help. Lots of cats to cuddle. The mattresses are wider than a normal single bed size.
