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 reviewStaff working there are amazing - very friendly and helpful. The common areas upstairs and downstairs are cozy.
The bathrooms are awful. The toilets and showers are in the same room, which is common in SEA, but the hostel has some non-slip mats on the floor which end up having hair stuck on them. I was hoping that the mats would be moved when cleaning, but even after the bathrooms were cleaned there were lots of long hair stuck on the mats. It was very gross. The toilets are also not great. Hard to say if the liquids on the toilet seat and on the floor were water or pee. I ended up checking out a day early because of that. The location is not great. There are no restaurants or cafes around, so you always need a grab to go somewhere.

Verified reviewRoom was basic but comfortable. Location of the hostel was great - a short walk to the main street and close to public transport. Well equipped kitchen and communal area. They have also tried to address all the negative comments prior which is very admirable for a property owner e.g lockers for storage, gated entry for security and clean bathrooms
Really not much, we had a great time and a very pleasant stay in Yogya.

Verified reviewThe location of the hostel is excellent — very close to the Sultan’s Palace and Malioboro. The staff is super friendly and warm. They communicate through WhatsApp and provide all the info you need for a quick and easy check-in. They reply fast too. I checked out early to visit Prambanan and asked if I could leave my backpack for a few hours — they had no problem with it. When I came back, they even let me use the shower and the kitchen. If I ever come back to Jogja, I would definitely stay here again!

Verified reviewSimple but great and clean hostel in a good location close to the historic centre. There is a kitchen and a shared bathroom with several showers and hot water, all cleaned regularly. Pleasant common areas, free drinking water available. We felt safe here. Wi-Fi worked without any issues. Our double room was very small, but it had a quiet air conditioner and a fan.
No storage space in the room, just four hooks and a hanger. The lads at reception didn’t speak English, but that wasn’t a problem for us—they were friendly.
