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 StatesThe hostel wasn't super social, but they may have just been the time of year I went. Overall I really enjoyed my stay!
Great little cafe on-site, really nice location, nice family who runs the hostel. The rooms were just lovely! They even gave us free water bottles every day!

NetherlandsThe bed was really hard, but that's common in Thailand. There was no closet in the room to put my clothing in. The main beach close to the hostel isn't that nice. Better rent a scooter and go to the smaller beaches more down the south.
Friendly owner. I had the private room with balcony and it was great. Good breakfast at the hostel (not included). Did rent a scooter as well at the hostel. Didn't had to leave my passport as a deposit which I liked!

United KingdomThere's nothing to dislike about this place & great value for your money.
This place is a little Gem and was absolutely perfect for my stay. I came to koh samed to spend time on the beach with total relaxation and that's exactly what I achieved. The hostel is run by a lovely young Thai family of whom are very friendly and any Concerns that you may have are dealt with immediately. My air-conditioning room was perfect with a comfortable bed & soft pillows. It's also a good place to meet up with other friendly Europeans and share their travelling experiences. I don't often make comments on places, but this is a really good place to stay & I shall definitely be staying at samed hostel on my return to the island.

The location was perfect; just out of the busy area but within walking distance to everything. The locals are friendly and you can get your laundry done just across the lane. The private hostel rooms are clean and comfortable with a little balcony where you can sit and let the breeze cool you down. The staff were excellent and friendly- on hand to help with anything.

United KingdomThe only thing to note would be that we were on the top floor which was floor number 4 and there is no lift so we had to walk three flights of stairs, for us not an issue but it may be for others!
Great location, very comfy bed, super soft duvet and really good A/C. Towels changed daily and new bottles of water given each day. They also supply beach towels which was a bonus. Wi-Fi was good and shower was hot. Staff were super lovely too!

South KoreaWONDERFUL and FANTASTIC place in Koh samet. Every space in the guest house was SO CLEAN. The beds were very comfy so I slept very well every night. The balcony was so useful to dry clothing and swimsuits. A/C was so cool. The owner family was really really kind and friendly. They helped us many times from tour booking, rental bike and anything I needed for enjoying the island. The breakfast and the coffee were SO DELICIOUS and we were 100% satisfied every morning. All foods they made for us were top of top in the island. Strongly and Highly Recommend.

ItalyThe curtains shadowing the windows were not really dark so in the morning you don’t have dark in the room. The air con was a bit noisy.
The position is great: close to the centre but in a quite side road. Everyday the towel of the room were changed and you have the possibility to exploit additional towel for the beach. The staff has been extremely friendly and always ready yo answer us.

Great place and very nice staff. The location is exactly in the middle and close about 5 minutes walk from main peir and the main beach, the good restaurants are even closer and luandery is next to the exit ( and better one 3 minutes walk from there). They also have good food at a good price.
