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 StatesThere is one bathroom for men and one for women in the second floor. If the hostal is busy it may be a challenge to find a time to use the bathroom. I myself did not suffer from this but my girlfriend did a few times.
The hostal is economic, cozy, and comfortable. Elvira and Katia make a wonderful breakfast everyday and in general, the staff is considerate and accommodating. Very much recommend. While it is somewhat removed from downtown, you can get there conveniently with bus 86 (the public transit is great!) and there are a few nice cafes nearby and a pleasant botanical garden.

IndiaThe dorm experience for the boys wasn't as comfortable. The door of the dorm had some issues and could not be locked. There was a group of 10-15 children on their floor who were noisy. We were tired and needed rest. Thus we checked out much earlier than we planned to.
The place was clean, breakfast was served on time. We only stayed for a few hours after our flight landed on 8th early morning. Although we booked for 4 beds in a mixed room dorm, 2 boys of our group were asked to stay in the dorm while the 2 girls were provided a separate room with a bathroom just outside the door.

PhilippinesInsensitive staff turned off the light on the common area even if they saw us working on our laptops —and this happened in two consecutive evenings. No nearby cheap restaurants also. Location is a bit far from center.

the staff was really cooperative, the breakfast was nice, it is a bit far from the main downtown but in a beautiful location with all supermarkets and mall nearby. would highly recommend staying here. PS hostels in Kazakhstan are not like in south east asia you can't make noise or party past 11, if you do so be ready for a scolding.

What an absolute gem! I am so happy i found this place to stay while in Almaty. The warm welcome, the beyond-my-expectation breakfast every morning… the comfortable beds with curtains… they are doing hostel’ing proper. And everyone is so so kind, helpful and sweet. Thank you, thank you!

RomaniaI hated the lack of working bathrooms (only 3 WCs and showers for the whole house) Also it was kinda cold inside, but I suppose the central heating system was not on in September. The bed made very disturbing noises with every move.
I loved the breakfast, the good wifi, the price I paid for it, the kind staff, the fact that the beds had privacy curtains, also the big lockers.

United StatesAs a solo female traveler, this was the perfect stay for me in Almaty. It’s so nice to arrive to a new region and feel so welcome when traveling alone. everyone was friendly, warm and super helpful…even with all my last minute requests. The house is beautiful and cozy with a lot of space to sit in common areas and a big sunny yard. The female dorms are super comfy, with lockers, big windows, airflow and curtains on the beds for privacy. It’s exactly what I look for in a hostel and more. Oh and breakfast is so lovely! Filling and changing daily - also accommodated me being vegetarian. Thank you !! Looking forward to staying again when I come to Almaty
