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.).

AustraliaThis is a good hostel. The location is handy to the trams and the Friedrichstrasse railway station. The staff were very exceptionally helpful. In particular, they were able to identify a build in a photo I took in East Berlin in 1984.

FinlandThe shower was dirty and there was no floor wiper to wipe the floor of water, so the water pooled and all the dirt stayed. The shower head pressure was also poor.
Bar area was nice. I also appreciated a hair dryer in the room as well as sockets near the bed.

United StatesI was disappointed with my stay at this hotel. The room was quite small, making it feel cramped and uncomfortable. The pillow was not comfortable at all, and the bed was not supportive enough for a good night's sleep. Additionally, the small space between the bed ends and the wall made it difficult to relax. There was only one small elevator, which was insufficient given how busy the hotel was, leading to long waits. Overall, the experience did not meet my expectations.
I had a good stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. The staff behaviour was good but could be better. I enjoyed the coffee nearby. The hotel and the toilet were clean. Overall, I recommend this hotel for its convenient location, and clean rooms.

South AfricaRoom had noisy guests. The hostel is full of people there to party, but also people just travelling and even working, but I'd say majority to party and this is not ideal for everyone. Also no kitchen to cook your own food.
This backpackers is in an unreal location. Like so so so good. Literally steps from the U-Bahn/S-Bahn and Trams. The staff are lovely. The rooms are modern. The lockers are big. 8 Sleeper has two showers so really easy to share. Lockers are available for luggage storage and not too expensive.

ChinaThe drain in shower rooms in -1 floor does not work well and reparing is not in time. At least the solution such as go to other floors for shower, should be told to the guests in good time.
The location is good in terms of transportation, shopping and eating. It is just in the old Berlin area. It is within walking distance to go FreldrichStrasse station for major S-Bahn and U-Bahn lines.

UkraineThe pods were comfy, however that's not my first experience stay in pods and this one was rather disappointing. It was quite shocking to see the pods don't lock. Also you will have to pay additionally for the towels and lockers. Also, the bath was in quite a bad condition. I would also mention the great location of the hostel.

BelarusThe room is really small. Hardly any space except for the beds. Toilet/shower is spacious though. Not much place to put or hang your clothes when going to sleep. The window was wide open, but it was still a bit too hot inside.
Never been in a hostel before, but I thought it was nice. I was staying in a 4-bed dorm with a private bathroom, which was clean, the shower was fine. Bed was comfortable enough, and had a light and an outlet. Under the beds are the lockers and you need your own locker to close. Convenient lockers at the reception allow you to leave your bags for few hours for a very reasonable price (3 euro for 6 hours or 1.5 for one).

IrelandI Booked a family room with 2 twins and bunk beds and cost 390 approx including towels- when it was booked I also noticed cost of room with 2 bunks was 340 euro approx without towels. When I checked in and got to room it was a room with 2 bunks and no towels. I asked reception fir towels and I was asked to pay for them, after some discussion I didn't have to pay. I was over charged 50 approx for a room I didn't get.

United Kingdom1. The shower needed a deep clean and had a sign that you needed to ask for one, rather than it being a standard routine 2. There was an instance where a man was checked into our female dorm (I assume by accident) and when I went down to tell reception, I was asked to tell the man to come speak to them which I thought was a little preposterous because I had no authority to do that. It was sorted quickly but the receptionist seemed rude to me after I refused to speak to the man.
Very good location and felt modern. Stayed in a 6-bed female dorm which was spacious enough and had a hairdryer and workspace with a mirror so you could do your hair/makeup. The shower and toilet were separate but inside the room which was good.
