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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

BrazilA male attendant was very inflexible. I arrived 1h before check in and 5 minutes before time i went to the front desk to start check in and he asked me to wait until the right time, cause trains cause trains do not depart when I arrive. I just wanted to start filling in the papers.

GermanyWell, to begin with, it is expensive. For one night stay, I had to spend almost 35 euros, that too, for a dorm room. I don't understand why female dorm rooms are always so expensive! Except for the price, it was awesome.
The location was awesome. Places to visit were really close to this hostel. The room was really nice, but washroom was to be shared with men. The breakfast was on pay basis, so I didn't try that. They offered a free alcohol shot and screening of the Sound of Music movie, a library and functional kitchen, I found it awesome!

United KingdomThe bathrooms and showers were an odd combination - a few floors had gender-specific bathrooms, and a few had mixed, so it was not too easy to access them (depending on which floor one is located)
Sound of Music screening (everyday at 8 PM), general chatter from fellow hostellers, food storage options

NetherlandsI stayed on the 3rd floor with 2 of my friends. The height of the beds was very small. I’m 5.2 ft and I hit my head almost every time. And my friends are around 6 ft, it was quite difficult for them to take the upper bed and it was extremely close to the ceiling, quite uncomfortable.
Lively hostel, nice location and walk around the city easily.

AustraliaThe whole property is dated which means the common spaces could use a bit of a spruce up, and the beds are uncomfortable (the pillows were also awful). The kitchen also has so much potential to be useful and a good place for cooking but it’s under-equipped with a tiny fridge for the amount of people staying at the hostel.
Close walk to the train station and the city centre, social vibe, toilets and showers always available, also thought it was cute they show the Sound of Music each night.

Good location, nice staff, clean rooms and good beds, good bar with a cool vibe and plenty of socialising going on. They let you pay a deposit for towel rentals with card before giving it back in cash (helpful as I had no cash on me). Basically if you’re staying in a hostel it’s pretty much what you’d want
