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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesI appreciate this hostel for doing all the work in planning my backpacking trip from Valbonë to Theth. They helped me book and plan my trip as soon as I got to the hostel. I was able to leave my things as I was on my excursion in Theth. Also the workers and volunteers here are SO HELPFUL! and kind. anything questions you have they are happy to answer and help you out. Facilities are clean and beds are comfortable. It also helps that the sleeping quarters are away from the common area so you can get a good night rest. 10/10 recommend. This is the place to stay if you are planning a trip to Shkodër to do the Valbonë Theth hike. Not to mention, they also have laundry at a very reasonable price! Breakfast included and 3€ for a very delicious dinner. Can’t beat it!

BelgiumIt could be made clearer on the street where you can check in.
There is a good vibe in the common area. There is a lot of choice for breakfast and it is good that they can arrange trips to Valbona and Theth for you and that you can rent a bike to explore Shkoder.

New ZealandWanderers Hostel was perfect! The staff were extremely helpful with arranging everything for our hike from Valbone to Theth, even organizing a group of 17 of us to split the cost of a guide as there was still a small amount of snow at the top. The dinners were incredible value at 3 EUR, drinks were cheap and Rakia was free after 8pm. The vibe was great as well and the location was perfect too.

United KingdomOnly thing I would suggest is that some of the rooms are a but cramped. 2 big chairs in there which are not really needed, which means less space for 6 backpacks when the room is full
Staff make the hostel, extremely helpful and will give you lots of info on getting to valbone and theth. Good food on some nights of the week and great value for money. Beds were comfortable. Good location

They arranged everything for the Valbone-Theth hike very smoothly and efficiently. It's in a good location, close to the centre and walking distance from pubs and restaurants. They had a Mexican dinner night at the hostel and was fun to meet other travellers this way.

BelgiumDorms have a lock opened by a rfid card. If you go to the toilet at night and forget your key, you get locked out of your dorm... And as the reception is on the other side of the street, it's not a fun situation to be in. A code would make more sense.
Great location Friendly staff Welcoming common area Beds have a 'privacy curtain' Good AC

BelgiumSuper friendly staff, ready to help you with anything Perfect location, and great evening dinner. The place is very cosy and I like the fact that the bar/common room is separated from the building where the dorms are located, allowing for more tranquility. They are also very happy to help you organise a transfer & accommodation to your next destination!
