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 are 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 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.).

KenyaThe host, Welima, is a gem. So resourceful and also a fun person to be around. She makes great food! The breakfasts I had were good and filling! The hostel has a nice lounge area and the garden is beautiful with a few fruit trees. The showers have hot water. The location is great and quite easy to find. Only thing missing is WiFi but I'm sure they will work on it.

United KingdomFor me breakfast was a little modest and the dining area a little uncomfortable- but I thought it was completely suitable for the price paid- so I can’t really complain. The description of the room was a little ambiguous. It had two bunk beds- not two beds. The room is for 4people, not 2.
I had a lovely time at Hostel Kiliwood with Welima, the rooms and facilities are cleaned more frequently than any other places I’ve stayed in my life 👌🏿. The breakfast is modest and nice, and it’s very nice that dinner is also offered- although I didn’t get round to trying it as there is lots of food to try in town! Which is a 700shilling ride away by shared Tuktuk’s- which are very frequent from the bus stop just down the road. Excellent value. Welima is incredibly hardworking. Make sure to ask about the excursions offered- they are also very affordable, however also slightly less professional as a result.

TanzaniaThere should be a bigger sign outside to become easier to identify the hostel!
This hostel should definitely be on the radar for anyone wanting to stay in Moshi a few nights for low prices, comfortable beds, warm hosts and delicious food offered. We had a super pleasant stay and would go back!

SlovakiaWe had some electricity and internet issues during the stay. (5GB daily limit per day).
The hostel is located in a quite and nice environment, the host is sweet and everything was great. You can spot Kilimanjaro right from the garden, and keep your stuff in the hostel during the hike too.

Willi the host here is the best! The place is very clean and chill. Comfy beds with everything you need in the room/bathroom. The host is a excellent cook and very accommodating and helpful for whatever you need when you’re there. It’s a very short ride to town and it’s nice that it’s surrounded by nature. This is the best place to stay in Moshi!

Abkhazia, GeorgiaPerhaps a distant cock crowing in the early morning but really it was most charming.
A short bajaji ride from town up Uro road, Kiliwood is ideally situated on rolling green hills covered in beautiful vegitation. A really nice house with ample outdoor space, it has both private rooms and small dormitories, hot water showers, very clean, excellent meals when required, it is good value for the price paid. Welima, thank you for making my stay in Kiliwood both pleasant and interesting. I would and probably will stay there again.

IndiaThe room had only one light, it wasn't enough to cover the whole room well.
The place was really nice and a good homely vibe. The host Wilema was amazing and super helpful. She helped us out with whatever we wanted and made sure we had a great stay. The rooms were clean and quite comfortable.

MoroccoIn this area the electricity and wifi will go out unexpectantly so, it's complicated if youre looking to work from the hostel, or have business to take care of.
Breakfast was great, lots of different options. Wilema always made sure the hostel was clean, worked around the clock, organized and also sprayed every night for mosquitos. It was in great location for going to Materuni to see the waterfall. There was hot shower water. Opportunity for volunteering, very nice front yard and house.
