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.).

NetherlandsShowers could be a bit Cleaner, but were okey.
Very friendly staff. Nice, clean private room. Dorm was also very nice and clean. Beds were soft, slept good. The hostel owner feels like a friend you can rely on. Listens to what you want and giving good advice on what you need. Very cheap because of the low season. More than worth the money!

PhilippinesThe hostel was peaceful and spacious. The AC keeps the room cool. The bed was comfortable and a curtain was available for privacy. Sockets, a mini shelf, and a mini lamp were installed right next to the bed. The staff and owner were very accommodating and helpful. They will try their best to help you with information you might need to go around the area.

United StatesWe had a great stay at Sleepy Raccoon Hostel, the host truly was a super host and helped us out with renting a motorcycle, laundry, restaurant recommendations and anything else we could have wanted. The location wasn’t too far from the main attractions and was easy to access by motorcycle, and the property was beautiful and peaceful. Highly recommend.

I solo-travelled during off season and the place did not have a lot of people just for a couple of them. However, Mr. Mak and his cats made me feel like I was back home. He was very helpful with renting me a bike/ some tips on where to souvenir shopping/ places to visit etc. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and very well maintained. The shared room has a TV which has access to OTT platform. Your stay will feel like you’re back home. :)

United StatesThe host is super nice and accommodating and literally helped me with everything from the booking the tour to helping me figure out visa extension At Borobudur (although apparently you can only extend once but still he was super helpful in the process). The place is a quick bike ride away to the backpacker street with restaurants. I had a private room and it was clean. The hangout area was very nice. There is also a kitchen and water available to refill your bottle.

GermanyThis was definitely one of the best hostels I visited in Indonesia. The host, Muk, is very nice and always helped me out. The other staff, even though they don't speak English, also seemed very likeable. The facilities, compared to other places I visited, were definitely good and mostly clean. There is really nothing bad that stands out to me. Great hostel. Can only recommemd

Simply one of the best hostels I have been. Very friendly and helpful people who work here. Special thanks to Mok, who was very helpful and always made me feel at home, even when I dropped a big glass bottle of limonade 10 minutes for my departure🥲🤣. Thank you very much, will not forget this place.

AustraliaHonestly can't think of a single negative thing about this hostel.
I cannot express the praise of this amazing hostel in words! From the comfortable rooms to the peaceful location all the way to the amazing owner who deserves a Nobel prize for the joint he is running in Yogyakarta/Jogja here. Mukhatar ( the owner) is perhaps the kindest & most generous person I have met, he instantly makes you feel like part of his family as soon as you step foot on the premise 💞 Not only this but he will go out of his way to ensure your needs are met he will help with everything like; assisting with tour bookings, scooter rentals, laundry & assisting with translations, booking rides to get around town even provides information for places in & around Java such as: recommendations for local hotspots for events, sunrises/sunsets, hikes, cheap food & stores, you name it this man will put in 110% effort to ensure your enjoying your time here. The facilities here are top notch too, from clean bathrooms, a large open living room with a huge TV with its own Netflix account & PS4 to an open easy to use kitchen with refrigerator, stove, microwave, plates, cups, cutlery, utensils, the works! 🍽️ If you're looking for somewhere to spend your time in Yogyakarta this hostel should be on your list, if you're lucky you might even run into the local polylinguist "Mr Saturday" a happy, sweet fella that will always put a smile on your face (if your timing is right you may even score a chance to taste his mouthwatering home cook-ups) or Mohammed the legend of the local nightlife who can fill you in on the the local bars & clubs around town also guaranteed to put a smile on your face both legends in their own right 👊 & often poke their heads into the hostel to say hello! I digress point being stop reading this review & book yourself into the Sleepy Raccoon Hostel ASAP it's an experience you will not regret, guaranteed ✌️&♥️
