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.).

DenmarkThe building has many large windows and poor ventilation. Our room was very stuffy although the temperatures outside were not particularly hot. The shower was very temperamental and had to be activated at very short intervals. All in all, the value for money could have been better.
The hostel is in a quiet street in walking distance to the historic centre. Everything is functional bordering on basic (breakfast, rooms, communal facilities).

GermanyCheck-in was possible until 10.30pm. We arrived around 9.30pm and needed to ring a bell in order to enter the building. Unfortunately no one opened so we had to wait for another person staying in that hostel to let us in with their keycard. The receptionist (who was also the bartender) then had us wait another 10 minutes before checking us in because she wanted to finish washing the dishes first.
Great Hostel. Very nice hosts, great breakfast buffet (included). Very clean rooms with private bathrooms. Overall great.

NetherlandsHowever, the showers leave much to be desired. It consistits of a button that automatically shuts off the shower after 5 seconds. This makes any meaningful shower next to impossible, unless you like quick cold showers.
It was nice that breakfast was included and was a buffet syle. And the hostel is in a good location with friendly and helpful staff. And well obviosuly the price is a huge plus.

FinlandThe shower is awful, I couldn't regulate the temperature and it doesn't have a normal shower head. Also the floor is quite cold, so better to use some slippers 😬
Good location and nice breakfast (included in the price). The staff is very friendly and ready to help=) Also the opportunity to put your bags to a locker before check-in or after check-out is a very big bonus 🙂

United KingdomIt was very very hot in the room in late December - can't imagine what it's like in summer. Conversely the shower was cold on 2/3 days. The WiFi didn't work. Under the bed was very dusty which I only realised after sliding my bag underneath and finding it covered in dust! Wouldn't have taken much to clean under the bed!
Good location. Comfortable beds with a power outlet and reading lamp. Nice bar. Pleasant breakfast.

ItalyTowels are available for rent and linens are included but they were vey old and with stains. The room was dirty because we found hair everywhere and the shower was tricky.
It's a Hostel so you shouldn't expect something so cozy and nice but for that price I was expecting more. At the beginning it was cold inside but thanks to the boy at the reception the heaters work really well afterwards. The breakfast was good but with few choices.

LuxembourgThe only downside was the shower, as you have to press a button every 30 seconds to keep the water flowing. This was fine for a normal shower, but complicated when we needed to wash our hair.
The hostel is very clean, in the common areas and the rooms. Comfortable beds and central location. The breakfast is also of a good quality.
