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...).

Switzerlandi just didn't like that i could hear the trucks unloading garbage, stones and glass or whatever that was, the sound was extremely loud and would always wake me up around 5AM till like 9AM... you can also kinda hear the cars and people in the street. and i also think that is too expensive.
the place is really nice and with a lot of plants and the fact that it's in front of the beach it's a bonus, the staff was also friendly and helpful. i didn't have breakfast but from what i've seen it looked good.

GermanyThe regular price is a bit high given it's only a shared 4 bed dorm room with no breakfast included. It's okay when it's on sale though if you book in advance :)
This was my second stay at Selina, great as always. The location can't really get any better and the service is great - I did ask for a few extras and all were made possible right away. My go to place to stay in Brighton whenever I travel by myself. Preston Street, where it's located at has some of the best restaurants in town as well.

United KingdomThe Hall light bulb had gone as you stepped into the bedroom. Had to fumble about when we came in at night and couldn't see our way around the room. Hotel front door was open after midnight on one night. Nobody at Reception. Didn't feel the building was secure as anyone could walk in off the street.
Lovely sea view. Light, bright room with a really comfy bed.

United States of AmericaCan't think of anything
Shared room for 4 was still quite cosy, one room with two twin beds, another annex with two bunk beds, gave some privacy to both parts. Shared bathroom was very clean with free shampoo/conditioner and hand soap. Towels provided. Location is amazing!!! Steps from the beach, 30 min walk from train station. Great position between Brighton and Hove, some affordable restaurants around the corner on Western Rd. Great service on the desk. Fine to leave your luggage before checking in/after check out. The other guests are mainly 30-40s, professional type, many there for co-working. Not a party hostel, for the better. Bunk beds were large enough for me (6'6")

United KingdomSomeone did scan a card and open our door obviously assuming the room was empty - not sure whether it was staff/housekeeping or another customer who accidentally received the wrong key to the wrong room haha. This was the only little problem really but other than that the stay was brilliant.

United KingdomWhile we did have clean towels, the previous guests' dirty towels were still hanging on the back of the bathroom door. The bathroom in general (sink in particular) could have done with a deeper clean (if I were to be really picky). A couple of light bulbs also needed replacing so it was quite dark. But all in all it was very good value for money.
The people were friendly and checking in/out was quick and efficient. The room was a decent size and the bed was comfortable. The design was also very nice - it feels well thought out and has a nice vibe.
