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 KingdomGina and Tina have been the kindest and friendliest hosts. After arriving late after a day of traveling, they were incredibly warm and welcoming (and even upgraded my bed free of charge for unseen circumstances!). The following day they have plenty of great recommendations for things to do in Sarajevo (and recommendations for the rest of BiH). I would highly recommend this hostel! Thank you Gina and Tina!

SpainM'y bed was a bit run down, and some careless customers take no care in maintaining the common areas clean. When the official staff is not at the desk, be ready to address customers playing at the frontdesk!
Location is amazing, couldn't be better, at the center of the bazaar! Gina is very helpful and knowledgeable, trust her to help you in any way she can despite the huge workload at the hostel!

Big cozy bright room! Location is amazing, in a heart of Baščaršija! People are welcoming. In front of the hostel is lounge with shisha and nice music during whole day. Best ćevapčići just behind the corner. We loved it!

Czech RepublicThere's no window in the room. Old, uncomfortable beds, poor furniture. Super loud music during the night (there's bar in the same backyard as the hostel). Definitely not suitable for staying with kids (and even without them). Booking.com should consider removing this place off the list.
Location is great. Ladies at the desk were the nicest. Super helpful, understanding, kind, good english, the best. That was the only pros of our stay and I am sorry for them that I have to write this negative review. They did everything they possible could to help us.

FranceIt’s a family run hostel and you can feel that «home» feeling as soon as you step in which I loved. Everyone has been incredibly kind to me and very helpful and just chatting with them was a pleasure. As for the hostel itself, it has the best location as well, in the heart of Baščaršija (the old town) near all the best restaurants and just near the river. Comfy bed and good bathrooms (with towels and soap, always nice!) So thank you to Mona, Đina, Biljana and Amir for giving me the best hostel experience in Sarajevo.

GermanyI was insulted, threatened by the receptionist guy and also told that I as a tourist should be scammed. The room was dirty, full of the dead bugs, spiderwebs and the walls were broken. The shower was also broken too and everything was really dirty. The sheets had stains on it and were also broken. The room was initially 50€ per night. It’s super loud and the just sweet talk you and play a victim. Like the lady at reception that is complaining that she has to do 45 beds alone. And that is their family business. Like I care. I came here to leave my money. So after I complained they still charged me 15€ for 2 h that I had the room before I noticed all of this.
Nothing.
