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 StatesWhen it gets too cold for the balcony, inside space to chill is a bit limited. Also, wifi didn’t reach the bottom dorm very well.
Nice and chill place with nice views, quite clean, and a great staff. Nice balcony and food was good.

IndiaEverything was perfect. Nothing specific to not like. Maybe only thing for guests to know is the washrooms are not per dorm but per floor. I already knew this. So there were no complaints.
The food was exceptionally great. Delicious and moderately priced. The price, the quantity and quality was totally justifiable. The owners/hosts and other staff were warm and you will always feel at home. The coolest hostel I have ever been at. You come here as a guest and check out as friends.

As the name itself suggests, Young Monk makes you feel young and cherish each moment. Everything from rooms, sanitation, view, location, food, service is at its best. The cafe deserves a special mention. The staff and host Harshad, DJ, very courteous and make you feel like a part of the family. Very generous and friendly. Worth a visit.

IrelandOnly advice I would suggest, just maybe a little more maintenance in the dormitory rooms on a daily basis
Cannot recommended this place enough! It is a hostel set on the mountain side of Dharamkhot over-looking all of the Bagshu valley. The staff are what make this place what so special, they are very welcoming, hospitable, friendly and kind and make you feel you are part a family. Lastly, the food is probably the best food I had in all my time in India, offering a huge range of Indian cuisine, I am disappointed in myself for not eating every single meal in Young Monk!

IndiaBathroom cleanliness and the fact that there was only 1 bathroom to be shared between 8 people. Other than that, all good
The view from Young Monk is amazing. It is one of the best in Dharamkot. You could sit there all day and it would still be worth it. Food is nice, the host goes out of their way to ensure that. Overall good show.
