Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

FranceBarely saw the staff there (but they answered on whatsapp). Never saw breakfast whatever the time. Staff not very reliable (they had confirmed twice to pick me up for ferry on my last day and forgot to warn me the person that was supposed to come was not available anymore, fortunately i asked the night before if all was ok, otherwise i would have missed my ferry). Not enough space to hang drying clothes for everybody...
Perfect location (close to fish market, restaurants, port for snorkling, and walking distance to ferry). The decoration and aura of the place is very nice : bottom common room and top terrace. Very good vibe ! Dormitory beds are pretty confy with privacy, and closed lockers. AC in the room (very welcome !). Stylish large bathrooms. Staff very reactive on whatsapp and helpful.

Canadamiss: floor squeegee for shower to evacuate water and have floor dry faster. No upper bedsheet. Bathroom would benefit a lot of a vinegar scrub to clean mineral deposits. It would be good to have more documentation on available activities and not just snorkelling day tour. Also, I asked for help to book online ferry (Indonesian bank requirement) and was refused, not sure why.

United States of AmericaCommon spaces were pretty dirty, especially the communal kitchen. Could use a weekly deep clean by staff and a list of clear expectations for guests to clean up after themselves in the kitchen. Buggy, though bug spray and nets were provided and helped :)
The hostel is lovely - beautifully designed and comfortable. Our room had a sweet outdoor bathroom which was a nice touch. Staff was excellent: super friendly and very helpful in getting bikes and scooter arranged for exploring the island

United States of AmericaThe owner and staff were so nice and understanding! The aircon didn’t work the first night and the water didn’t work one night either. We had to go across the street to shower. But the staff really cared and tried their best to fix things. I was even offered a ride to the port when checking out. I would definitely stay here again just for the staff!

I recently stayed at this city-centre hostel in Karimunjawa, and it was a fantastic experience. The location right in the heart of the city was incredibly convenient, making it easy for us to explore. The place was always clean, which I really appreciated. What made my stay even better were the staff members, Dimas and Morgan. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome. If you plan to visit Karimunjawa, this centrally-located hostel should be your first choice. We're excited to return and enjoy their exceptional service and a tidy environment once more.

IndonesiaThere's a lot of mosquitos, as anticipated due to the proximity to the coastline. The aircon is working but insufficiently cool for accommodating 8 guests within a single room. A bit unsure about the security since the staff isn't present round-the-clock; however, this is likely usual given the city's low crime rate.
Really worth the price! I booked the dorm room for a group of 8. The bunkbeds are comfortable, equipped with curtains for extra privacy. The bathrooms are spacious and clean. The location is convenient, just 2 minutes walk from alun-alun and the nearby harbor. Also lots of cafe around!
