How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The downside of having a more private atmosphere is that I feel it was harder to meet people compared to other hostels I stayed in
The place is clean. The sleep box makes your stay more private. The staff is friendly and helpful.

The hostel is just a few minutes from the bus station, which is really nice. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Bed and bathrooms were clean and AC was working well

2 bathrooms only for the whole dorm (I think 14 people). Would suggest a little shelf in the bed, and a less strong reading light, it was very bright
Nice and cozy common area, big lockers, tours provided. Kitchen with free tea and water. There was a sink to clean shoes. Met many nice people during my stay! The value for the price is really high

One of the shared shower/toilet cubicles was a bit small, so it was hard to avoid your clothes and towel getting wet, but that's just a minor thing.
This hostel was great value for money. The location was right in the centre of Tanah Rata, only 5 minutes from the coach station. The individual pod beds with blinds provided privacy, and were also equipped with an individual socket, light and small fan. Large lockers were available and locked securely with a key provided. They also offered to look after your luggage in reception after you had checked out. A shared kitchen was available with filtered hot and cold water, and free Cameron Valley tea. The communal lounge was nicely decorated and had games, books, and plenty of power sockets. WiFi was provided throughout the hostel.

The shower and toilet are combined, so you have to walk over wet ground to get to the toilet. Also due to them being combined, you share 2 toilet/showers with a dorm of 14 people.
The staff were amazing. A very warm welcome and helpful advice. The bed was very comfortable. There are lockers with keys provided. It was in a great location, 5 mins walk from the bus station and in the middle of town. Filtered water was great and the common areas were comfortable.

- The bathroom was very small, you basically had to sit on the toilet to shower and couldn’t really leave your stuff anywhere (for 1 night this was okay though). - The wifi was basically not working. - Electricity in my capsule also didn’t really work. - Very hot in the capsule.
- Location very close to busstation and the 7-eleven. - Staff was nice. - Big locker.
