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 beds on shared rooms don’t have a divider or curtain to have a bit of more privacy but not a big deal.
Great location and close to Gran via. Common areas and restaurant with different food options, and the lobby has a great vibe. Decoration, music, vending machines and friendly staff :) I’ve talked with a family staying on a private room and they talked wonders about it

The location is absolutely. superb being just off the Gran Via. The roof terrace and catering give it a big hotel feel. The staff at all Generator hostels have a reputation for being exceptional.

AustraliaThe room was quite small for 8 beds, the privacy screens on the beds were facing the wrong way!! the toilet and shower were super small. Shame there was another toilet on the same floor. The staff didn't look like they were enjoying life,and it felt a little cold.
Really good location, bed was comfortable, no way of meeting people. Good there were extra showers on the floor.

United KingdomOnly complaints would be only 1 shallow pillow each and jacuzzi’s weren’t in use our weekend, however, neither of these out weighed how amazing the hostel was.
Very central, nice and modern and clean. Perfect for a short city break. Rooftop bar was very nice with lovely cocktails. Staff were attentive and polite throughout.

RomaniaThe idea of having a bathroom and a shower inside the room sounds good but when you share with other 7 people with different routines, schedules and upbringings, this is a bit bothering. However, it was manageable. The only thing that really doesn’t make sense in the room is the hair dryer. That should be somewhere outside so that it can be used independently of sleep schedules.
The location was excelent, the property is nice, staff is great, I had a good experience!

GeorgiaNot much to say, but at one night there was a drunk visitor making much noise in entrance (probably the football fan after Madrid vs Stuttgart game), shouting an hitting at the doors and it lasted more than half an hour in the middle of the night. Someone (guest of the hotel) let this guy quiet.
Great Location, Great Value for the Price! Easy access. My room (Family room) was with a view on inside garden, so it was pretty quiet there.

IrelandVery disappointed that the jacuzzi was closed throughout our stay. No maintenance was observed taking place, it seemed like it was closed for convenience. We wanted to go to the bar for a drink on Saturday night 8pm - as a family we did not want to take the children (14, 11) out in the city at night. The rooftop bar was closed for a private event - understandable- however when we went downstairs to the bar it was also hosting a private paid music event so we could not go in as we only wanted a drink or two. This is unacceptable. We booked for the amenities and location but could not even have a drink at the bar. Very disappointing. You should be prioritising your guests, having all amenities closed is not acceptable.
The location was excellent. The room was fine for a family of four.
