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.).

JapanIt appears that broken items such as microwave ovens and USB cables are not being repaired immediately. Accommodation and tour fees are quoted in US dollars, but when we actually paid in Mongolian currency, the exchange rate was not good. (We paid this hostel on the same day we paid another hostel at a better rate.) When paying in cash in both dollars and Mongolian currency, the exchange rate is not clearly quoted.
It was new and clean, and the view from the window in room 1 was great.

United StatesThe soundproofing of the walls isn’t great. There should be some sort of sign outside. It’s not easy to find.
Good location; I stayed here before and after a roadtrip around the country and it was adequate for my purposes and I’d stay again. My room was comfortable and the shared shower was fine. It’s not a fancy place but for the price it’s good value.

United KingdomGreat location close to the department store. It was clean and secure. Staff were very friendly and spoke very good English. They offer a transfer service from the airport which was reasonable and worthwhile since it may be hard to find otherwise. Please see pic of the building, it's at the end of the road.

BrazilThe only issue was to find the place. As there are no signs in the street, I needed help from a guy in the nearby bar to call the Hostel and ask staff to find me, (10pm with -10ºC)
Comfy rooms, great showers, spacious, sweet and attentive staff and location close to everything. Had a great time.

I missed breakfast because I overslept, but overall, the accommodation was very clean and well-maintained. There were malls, restaurants, and convenience stores nearby, which made getting around very easy. I also really appreciated being able to arrange a taxi to the airport through the staff on the day of checkout. Thank you! The 8 photos are provided for other guests’ reference, showing the route from the building exterior to the entrance, then to the 4th floor by elevator, and finally down to the 3rd floor (where the room is) via stairs.

United StatesNo complaints.
Staff - Laidback, helpful, and speak good English. Location - It's on a side street close to the main street, so it's quiet, but you're close to the action. I practically walked everywhere. There are banks, shops, restaurants, and a huge mall right around the corner. Great location. Room - Exactly as shown in the photos. It was spacious, clean, and had huge windows that let in a lot of natural light. The wifi and hot water all worked well, and the electric bidet with heated toilet seats will change your life. Tips: Currently, the price of an official taxi from the airport is around 100,000 turgiks ($29). I believe the hostel's airport shuttle service is cheaper. Also, you can find 50% off cashmere clothing on the 3rd or 4th floor in the mall around the corner. I think it's called the "State Department Store."

One of the best hostels I’ve ever seen. Spotless clean, modern, convenient, very good location, comfortable, quiet. Price is very reasonable, regular for the hostel but unusual for this kind of quality of stay. Staff is kind, friendly and helpful. Speak good English.
