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 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 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.).

United KingdomIt was okay, more of a stopping over place than somewhere I'd stay if I was in Recife for a few days. Thete are some hostels that you stay at and you're not surprised when someone switches the light on at 5am and starts packing their gear. This was one of those places.
Breakfast isn't included but they do lay on coffee, crackers and jam in the morning. It's close to a large supermarket. Large under bed lockers.

SwedenThe mattress was to soft so if you are on the heavier side then you will feel the bedframe.
The staff was super nice and friendly. And the hostel is beautiful! A very calm space that is both private and quiet but still is close to all you need like the supermarket, beaches, restaurants and more.

The staff was amazing with us, very kind. The place looks very cozy and nice, with a good infrastructure for a budget trip. The place has a good value for money.

clean, quiet, well organised, nice people, staff super friendly and helpful, well located! Just few min walk from the amazing Pina Beach, supermarket, pharmacy, clubs and restaurants, bus stop to Recife Antigo. Arthur the guy at the check in gave me all the detailed information to get a perfect staying. Michel also from the reception was super friendly and willing to help with anything I needed, always smiling and respectful. Adriana was super kind and gentle, usually hung up with her in the morning organised us coffee and an unbelievable homemade jam w crackers which was totally an unexpected surprise. Of course all other people from the staff where as much good! it was a same for me to have different plans already scheduled otherwise I’d stayed at Cosmopolitan Hostel wide longer. Definitely recommend!!

AustraliaStaff weren't welcoming on greetings. Our toilet in our room was broken when we arrived and when they fixed it, they left our bathroom floor very wet and the bathmat dripping wet with toilet water. The air-conditioner leaked, which we didn't realise the first time we used it, and all of our bags got drenched from the water on the floor.
Good communal spaces, coffee and biscuits in the morning, good sized room and comfy bed. Location is ok if you are happy to use public transport or uber to get to the main sights

BrazilPlenty of beds per area in 2 of the 3 shared rooms. Clogged toilets, clogged sinks and beds with drawers that made a huge noise when opened. They could remove some beds and charge higher daily rates, as they are in a very popular neighborhood in the city, and thus offer a little more comfort to guests. In the future, if it undergoes renovation, the place will look great, but for now, I wouldn't go back.
The owner and one of the employees I had contact with were very attentive. The place has a full kitchen with all the utensils for you to prepare your meals.

Germanythe place looks a little run down. Especially the bathrooms and the kitchen look very old and not very welcoming. Breakfast is just some coffee, tea and some biscuits. The rooms are very simple and unpersonalised. The living room / common area looks a little like a flea market garage.
Very sweet guy at the reception with great English when I arrived. Nice little pool with some plants. I loved the board with suggestions what to do on each day of the week, not sure if they where up to date. I loved the cold water dispenser.
