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.).

NepalMattresses could be better.
The hostel absolutely reflects its name. Location wise- very near to the beach and the main city. Surrounding wise- greenery everywhere, hammocks, outdoor space, good restaurant, locals living nearby to have a little bit of the local experience. They also have yoga classes in the morning. Staff are very helpful as well. This place is a vibe in itself.

IndiaThere is not the usual social vibe that you get in other hostels. Perhaps, this could be because of the huge area and the farmstay- like feel. The hostel didn't have enough activities as compared to other hostels. They can also have more guided tours. Basic amenities like hot water are charged extra.
This hostel is located in a huge area, within a five minutes walking distance from Gokarna Main Beach. The location is peaceful and remote, and gives more of a farm stay vibes than the usual hostel. There is a large central area with hammocks and benches, where occasional campfires happen. There are plenty of dogs and other farm animals. The staff is excellent and very cooperative, they were just a phone call away. The hostel also has tie-ups with local two-wheeler rentals and auto drivers. The cafeteria offers a lot of options and the food is quite good.

IndiaCleanliness. The room was booked for 2 days and we expected basic maintenance like, cleaning room and washroom and changing towels. However, it was manageable after a while. The rooms can include nets at the openings to avoid mosquitos and insects in the room for the future.
The entire surrounding giving it a complete rural look and feel. The cafe to hangout and the common area to play various outdoor games like volleyball. The staff was courteous and respectful. They even took us to the beach walk and sunrise view above the main beach. Looking forward to visiting again next year in January to avoid excessive heat.

The vibe of this place is amazing. The common areas are very spacious and nice, were it's easy to meet people and gather. Also the place is very artistic and shared with many kinds of animals, which bring a beautiful atmosphere.

New ZealandThe food in the cafe was a little average and the beds were a little firm for my liking.
AC dorm room was nice and cold, a few small power outages while we were there but not too long. Nice social atmosphere in the hammocks hanging everywhere under the coconut trees in the shade. Cold water showers only but you can get a Bucket of hot water if you want- we certainly didn’t need it. Gokarna is hot. Reception staff is lovely, very good service and attitude. They helped with hiring a Scooty and bus transport and lent us a battery charger too.

BelgiumThere is a rat in my room but maybe because I let the door open too long. The staff helped me and there weren't any problem after that. But one should not bring food or let the door open too long to avoid this kind of little problem. 😅
The place was great. The staff was really helpful. They helped me to book a train, a tuktuk to go the train station and other stuff. The place is near the beach but it's really quiet so it's perfect. You also have a nice common place to do yoga. Really good experience.

The place has some magic to it and if you are looking for a relaxed goa beach vibe that place is prpbably what you are looking for. We heard there are free yoga classes in the morning. We couldt test those because we got sick.
