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.).

SwitzerlandI really loved my stay here! The people in this hostel are super friendly and create a welcoming atmosphere. The bathrooms and toilets were always very clean. They also offer a wide range of tours all around Jordan, which makes it easy to explore the country. I definitely recommend this hostel to anyone looking for a wonderful and adventurous stay in Amman.

MalaysiaNothing related to hostel experience. The only issue is that its situated at the hill, just like many other buildings in Amman, which can be a bit tiring if you are walking up from downtown, but its not a big deal.
The best hostel in Amman. Clean, lovely community, quiet environment, reasonable tours and a short walk to downtown.

PhilippinesThe girls dorm was a little noisy when i was having my nap time, but that’s just fellow travelers living their best lives. I’d still come back if i get to visit Amman again!
Perfect spot for travelers on a budget! The staff were incredibly welcoming and always ready to help with recommendations. Beds were comfortable, showers were clean, and the common area was great for meeting new friends. Location is walking distance to downtown.

United StatesBathroom toilet and showers could be a little nicer/more clean if I had to be picky. Top bunk in the dorm is pretty high as well but they are quality bunks so not really a big deal.
The vibe at this hostel is great! I wish I would have stayed longer then I did. The balcony is a great spot to chill and unwind after a fun day of exploring the city. Highly recommend you take the 2 day petra/wadi rum tour from the hostel as well. Wifi was great as well. They offer luggage storage when you do the 2 day trip as well so you don't need to book a stay here during that trip.

AustraliaWe absolutely loved this hostel! The staff were so lovely and so helpful and the tours they help you organise are so much fun :) They also helped us organise the rest of our trip through Jordan recommended other places to stay along the way. The beds are also perfect for a hostel room with curtains for your own privacy.

Everything. This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. We went on 2 tours - Jerash & Wadi Mujib and loved those. We also met new friends to travel with. We’d only booked 4 nights in Carob and nothing else because we’d seen that others just planned the rest of their trip with their help - this was a great plan, glad we did this. Allowed us to take the advice of the staff and do a better trip that we would have planned for ourselves. We stayed in their recommended camp in Wadi Rum and had the most amazing time there!
