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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

GermanyThere were no free towels and the showers were a little bit small, since there the toilet was in the same room
The rooms were spacious and the beds had curtains which was nice. Unfortunately there were no towels. Also there was free dinner and breakfast. The staff was really nice and helpful with good recommendations. I would stay there again.

AustraliaWe had a great stay with Tia’s! The accomodation was ideal for us 3 people and very clean. We did the hike from Theth to Valbonna through Tia’s also who organised the whole transport/ hike/ accomodation and made it very easy for us. The 2 nights of accomodation while on the hike were also so nice and authentic. Would recommend staying whilst in Shkoder.

SwitzerlandI enjoyed everything about my stay at Tia’s Hostel. Very friendly and helpful owners. The hostel offers a tasty breakfast for free and also cheap bike rental, laundry service and multiple hiking trips. Additionally, the hostel is just 2 minutes away by walking from the main street with restaurants and bars.

CanadaAll was good, nothing to complain about. Hotel service, hostel price.
I have to say it's loud. This place is big and beautiful. Because of the low season, I was upgraded to a better room for the same price. I did the famous hike Theth—Valbona with those few other guests. It was a blessing. Everything was organized, including packed lunches, accommodation, transportation, and everything included. It was the best part of my trip to Albania.

AlbaniaVery nice and clean hostel. Our room was so beautiful with a little balcony. We choose this hostel because of the Theth – Valbona they organize. It was low season, so not many of us where on the hike, but it was perfectly organized with packed lunches, accommodation, transportation and meals included for all the stay in the mountains. On the other side they do have some nice daily tours they organize around the area. Definitely it’s a place to be.

United StatesTia's hostel was exceptionally clean, had a great atmosphere, and the staff was very kind and helpful. I highly recommend staying here. They also offer an all-inclusive hiking tour from Theth to Valbona in the Albanian Alps, which is well worth the cost. Choose this hostel if you are staying in Shkoder!!

Really great hostel right in the centre of town.

Staff are very helpful and can organise your trip to Theth for the Valbona-Theth hike which is super worthwhile and def recommend. Hostel is close to heaps of pubs but conveniently just outside of the main bar strip so it isn’t loud at night. 100% recommend Tias hostel 🤙
