BootsnAll Hostel Reviews

By Hydro | Permalink | 7 comments | June 2nd, 2005 | Trackback

This is something we’ve been wanting to launch for ages and the day has finally arrived when BootsnAll members can add their reviews of hostels they have stayed in. The descriptions some of these hostels give about themselves make them sound like they’re a blissful oasis where the people are always beautiful and it’s always happy hour at the bar. The reality can sometimes be rather different and that’s why we’re so excited about these reviews.

So, if you’ve stayed in a hostel (or several) that we have listed in our hostel section AND if you’re a BootsnAll member, please consider adding your review of the joint. We want the brutal truth, but you have to be willing to stand by your review as your BootsnAll username will be posted along with the review. We think this will raise the overall quality of the reviews if there are no anonymous postings and we reckon BootsnAll members are pretty discerning. Remember, not everyone has what it takes to be a BootsnAll member!

You can see our very first review here and you can add your own by going to the relevant hostel’s page and clicking on the “Add a Review!” link.

Well, maybe there is an “Add a Review!” link, but damn if I can’t find it.

Hey Joe, it should be right on the hostel’s page. So if you wanted to review the Flintstones Cave pension in Goreme, go to the page linked from my name below and look for the Add a Review link.

Party Factor and Friendly Feel should be seperate ratings. To me, at least, they are often opposing factors.

Will there be a “view top rated hostels” link for cities with many hostels like Prague? That would be cool.

I don’t see why not CHillcoat - we gotta get some reviews up 1st of course - they are starting to trickle in now…

Great idea. I trust the members here more than random reviews you find out there.

(And I agree with Neil, I wasn’t sure how to rate a place that felt very laid back and friendly but with zero party factor.)
