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.).

United StatesStaff seemed like they would rather be anywhere else but there.
Really great spot, natural light and views in the hostel (I’m learning some places in Taipei don’t have windows), bed area was spacious and offered privacy in the dorms. This was really a great value for the price. I would stay again. It might be a tad bit worn but it’s a hostel. I didn’t find it gross or anything. I actually found the wear and tear to be a bit charming.

AustraliaBasic accomodation but good price. Definitely not luxury but did the job. Airconditioning and wifi worked well in the room. Common area with washing machine and dryer and basic kitchen facilities and communal fridge. Located very close to train and bus station which allowed us to explore the surrounding Taipei area. 7 eleven and restaurants located close by. Overall, great value for money in a great location in Taipei.

ChinaThe room is big for one person. However it's quite old and a bit dark. There was a weird cracking sound with the pipe in the ceiling. Sounds like it's going to explode. Location is superb, just outside exit Y19. One shouldn't expect much at this price and location.

SwitzerlandReally good location close to the main station, airport mrt and both ximen and dihua street in walking distance. The bed was good. Nice public space area although maybe not a social hostel. The door frame was not very tall people friendly😆 But overall we would definitely come back. Very clean.

TaiwanMy bed's corresponding locker's key had been lost, this was said with a shrug and no other solutions for keeping my valuables safe were offered, thank goodness I didn't bring my computer with me on this trip. The staff was incredibly cold, even for Taipei/big capital city standards, made the whole atmosphere feel kind of apathetic, Taipei's grey skies are already enough of a downer without that :/
The bed was super comfortable, the wifi worked well, and the room was spacious and well ventilated, no mosquitoes. My room also had two toilets with showers, the location was great and coming in and out is easy. The common area is very nice.

United KingdomNo complaints really - could definitely hear a bit of noise in the room from other rooms, but not excessively and nothing some earplugs didn’t block out.
Great location, clean and comfortable rooms and a nice communal area. Also had a good kitchen and some free tea seemed to be provided. I got a private room and felt it was good value midweek, but on the weekends it shot up. Guess that’s normal for a big city. Staff were super friendly as well.

Great location near Taipei Main. The instructions provided made it easy to find. Room was large enough for the whole family and was totally quiet from outside noises. Shower was clean with good pressure and temperature.
