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.).

Everything. The staff were wonderful, the location was amazing right next to the beach and so many cute restaurants and shops nearby (our favourite was bikini bottom). The room was super spacious, clean and soundproof with the most comfortable beds ever. Super modern and bathroom was clean, modern shower with good water pressure. We would have extended our stay if we could and will definitely be staying here again when visiting da nang

It was a little quiet during my stay, however my friend went previously at it was busy when they were there. So I think I was just unlucky.
This is probably the nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in. It’s super clean, the beds are spacious and the room has so much space. It really feels new and was a pleasure to sleep there. The staff were also super friendly and the location is great! So many nice restaurants outside the hostel and it’s also super close to the beach. There is also a socialising area with a few games and there’s a co-working space which is super nice.

The rooms are very humid, in the bathroom sometimes water drops down. For me it wasn't really a problem. They know about it and try to fix it.
Top location. Modern, lots of space for your luggage and clean.

The AC needs to be repaired I guess? Or additional table fan needed in individual beds. It gets very difficult to sleep with curtains drawn specially for the beds in the corner during summers. Also there is no elevators in case someone is carrying huge suitcases, I didn’t carry any big luggage so I was fine but just keep it in mind while booking.
Great location. All kinds of shops right outside the hostel. The beach is at a walking distance. The owner is very helpful and would arrange for any necessities promptly. Located at a very lively street. The beds are very comfortable.

There's no lift, if you have heavy luggage good luck dragging it through all those floors and dragging it back down during check out. The bathroom didn't have shampoo or shower gel, all the other hostels I visited do so thought of mentioning.
The beds are nice, wide and comfy, light and ambient lighting is also available. They let you check in even at night which is really nice. They are a bit flexible with the check out time too. You can store the luggage at the reception, in case you have a flight at a later time and want to explore more. Scooters available for rent at a really reasonable price and the scooter we rented was the best one we rented in all of Vietnam.

nothing, everything was perfect
The building always had cool AC, amazing wifi, wonderful &helpful staff &the location was amazing. It's a 2 minute walk to the beach and the food around this hostel was probably the best prices i've seen in Vietnam by far. Huyen &the other 2 ladies downstairs were always willing to help and recommend new spots for you. Also, they have motorbikes for rent per day &also trips you can book like Bana Hills &Marble mountains..etc. I actually came back to Da Nang and stayed in this hostel twice. When I go back for a third time, I will be coming back to stay in this hostel- it's literally like my home Be aware that they have 2 dogs (Chili &Truffle). Chili has trauma with people so she is not as friendly but truffle is a bit friendlier once she gets used to you. Dont reach to pet too quick, she'll startle you
