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 Kingdomvery noisy, lots of young people who were running up and down the halls at night and slamming doors washing and drying was expensive approx €5.20 for each. Underbed lockers are large cages, you must bring your own lock, however small bags can still easily be grabbed through the bars even when locked
rooms were very clean, toilet and shower en-suite. body wash and soap included in bathrooms. chargers and night lights at each bed. kitchen was very spacious, large dining table, one fridge, two hobs, microwaves and a kettle. Plates, Pans and utensils all supplied by the hostel. 3x washing machines and dryers. large common room with entertainment on the Friday night, vending machines, atm and a bar free luggage storage and 2 lockers in the bar area. Good location, lots of bars and restaurants nearby. supermarkets 10 minute walk away and cologne cathedral/central station about 20/25 minute walk away

CyprusThe administration might assign you a bed in a four-bed room, but you may find that the bed is already occupied. This happened to me twice, and I had to inform the administration each time. It was quite odd—hopefully, they will check in advance in the future.
All the furniture seems to be new and the rooms are clean. The personal stuff was nice helpful:)

NetherlandsThe only lockers are the metal "baskets" under the bed that have big holes, so not very reliable, no closet kind of lockers or storage. The top bunk is quite low, so you cannot sit up on the lower bunk. I also accidentally banged my head on the top bunk while sitting down because I didn't take it into account. You have to put on the linen yourself. The sheet had holes in it.
It's a nice neighborhood, the hostel is quiet and clean.

JapanThe door of the shower room was a bit wet when we arrived. The location was not too bad, but for those who carry heavy luggage, having to take a crowded underground tram from Hbf and then walk for 8 min is I think a bit tough.
Overall it was exceptional for its price! The beds were clean, the room was big enough for two people and the staff were very nice to us. There were a small table and some chairs placed next to the beds which we felt were very useful to share some snacks and drinks together on.

RomaniaUnfortunately I am basing my review off of a comparison between this and a&o Stuttgart City. That is why I have to give it a lower score. The price is a bit higher than in Stuttgart and it's further away from public transport. Those two things don't mean much on their own, but also the bed and blanket were stained, and I also received (and had to exchange) dirty sheets twice.
The price was very affordable. Overall, it's definitely an option to consider for budget reasons, if you can look past the small problems.
