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.).

Very peaceful and pleasant hostel, the dorm is very calm, the staff is super nice, with good recommendations. There is also a yoga shala on the top floor, with view over the mountains and the city. There is A/C + fan in the dorm. The bedroom has its own balcony with a drying rack.

AustriaToilet paper in the bathroom and a mat for the floor would have been nice.
Staff and Owner are very welcoming and helpful with any inquiry I had. The room was well sized and comfortable. Location is up the hill and not close to a main road, which is nice as there is no constant car noise. There are nice cafes and restaurants 5’ walking distance and I felt save walking around there at any time.

GermanyThe Moksham is an amazing place in upper Tapovan - very close to many Yoga schools and nice cafés. I stayed in the female dorm and felt always so safe - especially as a female solo traveller. Its very clean and the staff is amazing - treated me like family and arranged everything what I needed! Another nice thing is definitely the little Restaurant downstairs - with really good food… Highly recommend this place! Thank you for Everything!!!! 🙏🏻

NetherlandsIf you want to meet new people, not the best hostel because they don't have a common chill place. Sometimes it felt that they got annoyed when asking questions (for example toiletpaper or availability). Pricing wise it was a bit weird because I met one girl who paid 150 rupees more per night and another one who paid 150 rupees less than me. That is a difference of 300 between them for the same room!
My friend recommended me this hostel and I totally understand why. Its a super clean hostel (!), amazing beds, they got cute chill areas in between,great location, nice restaurant, yoga room upstairs to use. They organized my cap back to the airport for a good price and we rented a scooter with them

IndiaWe loved our stay at Moksham hotel. Had initially planned for two nights but extended it to 4 nights. Very warm hospitality from Mayur and the caretaker Sanjay. The hotel can help you to plan your itinerary and even arrange bike rentals. The rooms are clean and well-maintained. The location is a slightly long walk uphill from the main road, but can be easily accessed by two-wheelers. There are a number of great cafes in the vicinity. Overall a safe neighbourhood and a great stay - would highly recommend this place.

I loved the peaceful atmosphere of Moksham, thanks to its location far from the noise of the centre but still a couple of minutes walk, and it’s nice and helpful staff. I also loved the facilities, the yoga room on the upper floor of the building is great, and the reading spots on every floor with plenty of spiritual books. Super great place, I’ll definitely come back!

India1. The towel, and pillows of the second room had a slight after smell of oil (used for massages). Since such oils are quite strong, they don't go away so easily.
1. The property was quite neat and clean, and I really appreciate the effort the staff has taken to maintain that. 2. I enjoyed the peaceful environment at the property, and got the vibe I was looking for. 3. The staff is very courteous. 4. The food at the cafe is great, we enjoyed all meals we had at the cafe. Unlike other cafes, they served everyrhing they had mentioned on their menu.

This hotel was so lovely that I extended my stay by one week and Mayur gave me a great price and even upgraded my room!
