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 reviewI was worried at first because I could not see any reviews on the web. But the rooms were surprisingly bigger than what we usually see on youtube about chungking mansion properties. We booked room for 5 and 4, one of the rooms even has a fridge! Regardless, the whole property has common area so you get to cook if you want, they also hs fridge if your from doesn’t have one. Free hot water and you can even use their microwave! We often ask for fresh bath towel almost everyday, and they always provide them happily. We were assisted by Sunny who was very accommodating. He even let us use one of our booked room prior our checkin time since it’s already available! What a relief because we came from a long travel! Huhuhu. We felt safe and cared for during our stay. He even shared tips on where to buy cheap water bottles and what to explore around tsim sha tsui. Definitely highly recommended! Our stay was super comfy!
THANK YOU

Verified reviewMr. Sahil so a very helpful person. He can provide you with whatever you need. Also, the location is very convenient.
Maybe the property is quite small, but a very good deal compared to the price in Hong Kong.
Thanks sir means a lot

Verified reviewThere were multiple hooks here n there in the room - not bad but who needs that many?
1) I had to cough out another additional 15% more as cleaning fee. When I told the staff that the booked price was HKD178.20 with Booking. com he said that I could always cancel this booking! So, I was at my wit's end, right? Cos' if I cancel, does it mean that New Hoover Hostel would deduct the amount from my card? So, I paid HKD204. He then checked me in to CEBU(Just next door to New Hoover). 2) There was no bath towel When I called the phone no. shown in the email the line went dead. I went next door(New Hoover Hostel), rang the bell, but no response! 3) Next morning I had my "big business". Imagine for 45mins I couldn't flush - no water in the cistern. Had to use the shower water! 4)The bathing gel was left at rock bottom. I squeezed the last little bit out, with air! 5) No waste paper basket provided - none!

Verified reviewThere's no combination lock key to get into this guest house, and there's only a key to open the door of the room, therefore I was concern about the safety of this guest house. There's marks on the towel.
