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 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):
- 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.).

Verified reviewLovely little hostel in the heart of Tirana. We really enjoyed our stay at Lemon Breeze. The staff were lovely and welcoming and the place was very clean. The amenities are more than adequate with Aircon in the room and good sized wash rooms for men and women respectively. There is also two nice outdoor areas which we took advantage of when it was too warm to explore the city. Would definitely stay here again next time we visit Tirana.
During our first night an old man in the room turned off the AC Unit even though it was 30° and then slept with the remote so no one else could use it. Obviously not the hostels fault so doesn't affect my rating.
Dear Michael, Thank you so much for choosing Lemon Breeze Hostel and for taking the time to share your lovely feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay with us—from our central location and clean facilities to our friendly staff and outdoor spaces. It’s especially rewarding to know you’d choose us again on your next visit to Tirana! We truly appreciate your kind words about our amenities, including the AC and well-sized washrooms. Regarding the AC incident during your first night, we’re sorry for the inconvenience caused—though it’s unrelated to our operations, we always strive to ensure every guest feels comfortable. We’ll continue fostering a respectful environment where everyone can relax. We’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back whenever your travels bring you to Tirana again. Until then, safe and happy adventures! Warmly, The Lemon Breeze Hostel Team 🍋

Verified reviewHad a very chill vibe, the staff were so incredibly lovely and they felt like just real genuine people which was really refreshing! Had a very homely feel and was super cheap! Bottled Water and beer available to buy for cheap too and they were kind enough to have you pay later if you didn’t have change :)
Nothing major about the place itself, The shower flooded when used and also I felt a bit uncomfortable using it with it literally next to the reception.. that’s just personal preference Also the guy who was snoring all night 😩😩😩😩Literally the loudest snoring I’ve ever heard in my life, I even had industrial strength earplugs in but that’s not the staffs fault, although because it’s not staffed all night it did feel unsafe when he was very intoxicated coming home at 3am standing in the middle of the room breathing everywhere, his top off making himself right at home Also pleaseeeee make sure those beds are stable I was genuinely scared that I was going to be flattened by the top bunk If I was travelling as a young female solo traveler I wouldn’t feel safe by myself. But like I said it just genuinely the people there not the staff or property
Dear Kiah, Thank you so much for your detailed feedback about your stay! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the chill vibe and found our staff to be friendly and genuine. It’s wonderful to know that you felt at home during your time with us. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced with the shower and the noise from other guests. We understand how important comfort and safety are, especially for solo travelers, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We’ll certainly look into improving the shower situation and ensuring that our bunk beds are stable for a better night’s sleep. Your insights are invaluable, and we hope to create an even better experience for our guests in the future. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to welcome you back someday! Warm regards,The Lemon Breeze Hostel Team

Dear Maria, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us! We truly appreciate your rating of 7 out of 10 and your valuable comments. We apologize for the issues you experienced during your stay. The door lock situation is indeed a measure we implemented to avoid disturbances for our guests, as we’ve had instances where keys were left inside, preventing late arrivals from accessing their rooms. We understand this might have been inconvenient, but we want to assure you that our hostel is a safe environment, supported by security cameras and a close-knit atmosphere. We’re also sorry to hear about the discomfort with the bed and the bathroom flooding. Your comments will help us address these issues to ensure a better experience for future guests. We hope you’ll consider staying with us again in the future. Your comfort and satisfaction are very important to us! Warm regards, The Lemon Breeze Hostel Team

Dear Hien, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you had a great stay with us and found our staff to be friendly and helpful. We truly strive to make every guest feel welcome, and your kind words mean a lot to us. We appreciate your feedback regarding the noise from other guests. We understand how important a peaceful environment is for our visitors and will work on ways to address this issue. And we also have some rules in hostel,like the quiet time for example, 23:00, or the bathroom time of use is limited, but some guests are just like that, they like to brake the rules sometimes. Anyway Thank you once again for your support. We would love to welcome you back for another stay in the future! Warmest regards, Lemon Breeze Hostel Team

Verified review- kind and helpful satff - comfortable bed + Towels and closet for the luggage - cleanness - location is not the best but also not bad it's close to the centre and many shops and restaurants and caffe - Good wifi - other facilities: equipped kitchen, machines, ...
- noise of people from the garden fortunately they don't stay very late at night - only one bathroom (one for women and one for men) I think it's not enough if the hostel is full specially the shower and the toilettes are in the same room - you need to go outside for the bathroom so if it's cold and rainy is not good - No kyes for the door rooms
Thank you for your review, Arij! Dear Arij, Thank you for your 8/10 rating and detailed feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed our kind staff, comfortable bed, towels, storage, convenient location, reliable WiFi, and facilities like the kitchen. We appreciate your honesty about the garden noise (happy to hear it didn’t run late!), bathroom access during cold weather, and shared facilities. Regarding room keys: we previously used them, but recurring issues arose when guests accidentally locked keys *inside* rooms overnight, preventing room access and waking everyone. We prioritize minimizing sleep disruptions, but we’ll keep reviewing solutions. Your insights help us improve. We hope to welcome you back soon! Safe travels, The Team at Lemon Breeze Hostel

Verified reviewThe guy who runs the facility is very friendly and helpful. The hostel has a nice little colorful garden that is used as a common area. You can easily reach the bus station from the hostel by taking the 16B and then the 8A transfer. The city center is within walking distance and there is air conditioning in the rooms which is the most important for these hot summer days.

Not that it troubled me, but only 1 gents bathroom for 12 beds. No separate WC as well, so you have to wait if someone is having a shower even to use the toilets.
