Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

AustraliaI personally prefer rooms with ensuites as it’s annoying having to leave your room with all your stuff to go to a shared bathroom, but that’s just me. It was very clean though. Also would be amazing if they had a bar!
The staff were very helpful, I had a lot of questions and they always helped me out. They also called me taxi whenever I needed it and had tours available for everyone PLUS a what’s app group so we could make friends 🤗

BelarusA ladder to climb to the top bed. Noise when opening the door and the locker under the bed with a magnetic card.
The hostel leaves really good impressions. You can feel comfortable here and relax after or before continuing your journey. Excellent cleanliness and convenient location right next to the Chania KTEL bus station. The immediate area is full of shops and street food outlets; to the center is the old port, which is a stone's throw away. The 6-person room is quite spacious, although not particularly large. The locker under the bed can accommodate a lot of your stuff. Reading lamp, clean bedding, magnetic card entry everywhere. Well-stocked kitchen, perfectly organized bathroom, and showers (gender separated), especially on the first floor. A nice patio/inner courtyard with a small pond à la pool. Before check-in or after check-out, you can leave your luggage at the reception. High-speed Wi-Fi connection throughout the facility (individual access via password from the reception). PS: Read the hostel rules posted on an A4 card in the rooms; you'll have fun!

CanadaA bar and breakfast would be great additions
Fantastic atmosphere, incredibly clean, very social, but not loud with beautiful kitchen facilities, air conditioning and a pool. All around an incredible experience. Reception staff is there 24/7 (very helpful if you arrive after midnight) and makes sure that everyone is quiet after hours. Cleaners are in the hostel at least three times a day and keep things almost spotless. The pool was an excellent surprise, a bit small but perfect for a refreshing dip after a day exploring the city. Hostel offers tours and has a WhatsApp group to organize group activities with other visitors. Nearby to Old Town, the bus station, laundromat and grocery stores. Excellent hostel - I’d come back to Chania just to stay here again!

New ZealandIt looks like the bunks may have been set up to have a curtain on them based on the rail, this would allow for lights to be on without disturbing others and an area to change.

United States of AmericaI was there for a month, and there were a couple times that large university groups seemed to essentially take over the hostel for the weekend. This is not really the hostel's fault, but the second university group was so loud during the middle of the night for the two nights they stayed, so I wish there had been someone to enforce the quiet hours when groups that large and boisterous were around. Would have also loved to be able to do laundry at the hostel, but there was a laundry place down the street to use, so it wasn't a big problem.
This is the absolute CLEANEST HOSTEL EVER! I swear they cleaned the bathrooms two to three times a day. The wifi was amazing (I was working remotely while there and had 0 problems). The staff was friendly and helpful, and the common areas are perfect for working from. I don't often think "I need to come back here," but I will probably return to Cocoon at some point. It's a real gem of a hostel and seems to attracts digital nomads for good reason

SwedenI didn't like that there were no instructions. There needsto be an information sheet somewhere since there is no one present to ask. As it is, I have no idea what I could have done wrong. It was pure luck that I saw a sign telling me to put my dirty sheets there.
Big bed which could be one's private space. Nice balcony. Licely atmosphere thanks to part of the facilities being rented out for people to hold courses in.
