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...).

FinlandFor those who like to gather and party with other customers, the general areas aren't that big (which suits people like me perfectly).
The owners were great and super helpful. When I got there, I was given a map and some information about where to find market or how to explore Roma. The rooms were comfortable and they were cleaned every day and had lockable cabinets. There was a kitchen and living room for the customers to use. Before the check in and after the check out I was able to leave my luggage inside which made it easier to enjoy the time outside after and before traveling. The location was good. Only 5 minutes walk to Roma Termini and 20-30 minutes walk to Colosseum, Forum Romanum, Fontana di Trevi. Vatican city is a little bit further, but still about 50 minutes walk away. It was easy to explore the city from there by walking. There were also a couple of nice restaurants and minimarkets near the hostel so when I was feeling lazy, I could just have dinner only a couple of minutes away from the hostel. The hostel is quite small and the general areas are in different corridors than the bedrooms which I found perfect, since it prevents loud socializing and partying.

United States of AmericaFacilities were very old, very basic, and circulation in room was poor.
Great location, smooth checkin process, adequate facilities. Small room was a little tight for two adults, but A/C and small closet helped us keep things in order. The shared bathroom was cleaned daily, new towels were handed out upon request, and I was grateful for access to fridge, kitchen, and common area with TV.

United KingdomRoom was a bit dark and TV was small (but I didn't use it).
The location was perfect. So central and amazing for the price. Accommodation was cozy and clean, and was a relatively well-lit and busy street so I felt safe (but as a solo female traveler, I'll obviously never be able to feel 100% safe). Lots of restaurants nearby, and about 10-15 minutes walk from the nearest metro stop.

SwedenIt’s not like a proper hostel but rather like a private home where the owners rent out rooms. This meant that they hung out in the common rooms most of the time. They also felt a bit unorganised. The kitchen hadn’t been cleaned for ages which to be honest was disgusting.
Welcoming hosts and we were upgraded to a double room instead of a dorm. We could leave our luggage there on the day we left - for the entire day!

United States of AmericaThe room was on the smaller side with not much space for our bags and you couldn't open the door for the bathroom completely as it hit the edge of the bed. Beds were also on the stiffer side.
Very conveniently located near the train station and there is a bus stop right outside which was very helpful to getting to the sites. There is a kitchen and common space to use and coffee and tea in the morning.

GermanyThe bathrooms and toilets could have been cleaner. There are problems with the charging points near the beds. Mine suddenly stopped working. The luggage should be made better. Currently, it is a very small space in the storage in the kitchen.
It has great location, just 5 to 7 min walking from the Roma termini station. The staff are great, very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Netherlands-The actual room was much smaller than what I saw on Booking.com. Instead of five single beds, there were two bunk beds and a single bed next to the door. The room is not big enough for everyone to open their suitcases inside. -There is no socket by the bed in the upper bunk.
-The owner is very nice. -The bed is comfortable. -There are bathrooms both inside and outside the room. -Tea bags, coffee and some free food are provided. -The bus stop is right in front of the door. -Provides luggage storage service.

Germanyvery small room size, no housekeeping (room was not made even once during our stay), no lockers to lock personal essentials, no soap or shampoo in the bathroom, no sound-proofing (can get noisy), most of the time we could not find anyone at the reception for help or queries. We stored some food in the common refrigerator but next day it was gone. It was slightly hard to identify the hostel at first, as there are no major markings around the hostel. We suggest to hang a bigger board outside with hostel name "Roman Holidays" for easier identification.
Best part about this property is its location: 500 m from terminal station, bus stop right in front of the gate, bakery next door. The room itself is quite basic but we got it in a clean state on arrival. The room has an AC which was great to have in the hot summer days of our stay. We also liked our Bulgarian host who was friendly and gave some helpful tips.
