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 Arab EmiratesI know it’s not common in Europe but I found it inconvenient and unhygienic that toilets don’t have bidet sprays installed. It would also be nice to have a tissue dispenser after washing hands in the lavatory.
Inclusivity and they offer fun activities which help people connect with each other and get to know Barcelona.

TurkeyAll the blankets were velvet and I'm allergic to it, and also I'd love to have a balcony but the room didn't have one.
The location is very good. The breakfast is good too, I just think breakfast time is a bit short, it'd be better if it's till 11 am. Amazing staff. All my questions were addressed and never had any question mark in my mind. Especially, many thanks to Beatrice Santi, they're incredibly helpful! And also it was impossible to be in a bad mood even after a bad day as Beatrice is always cheerful and has a great energy. Thank you so much for everything ♥️

United StatesThey charge €2.5 for a towel and require a €10 deposit per key, which you lose the deposit if the key is missing. When I was checking in, the ground floor elevator wasn’t working to go up, likely for security reasons. However, this forces me to carry large luggage up the stairs to the first floor to check in, which seems inconvenient.
The breakfast is good!

SingaporeShould be common sense but don’t leave your shower stuff in the bathroom cause it’s shared among the whole level and for some reason I assumed no one would steal it but it got stolen. Just bring it back to your room at all times
The location is probably the best quality, it’s walking distance to literally all the attractions

SwitzerlandMy towel got stolen when i left it hanging in the bathroom. That's no fault of the hostel, but just heads up to keep your stuff with you in the room. Lockers are available for free.
The location was really good and the beds were comfy and cozy with the isolating curtains. The staff was nice and smiling and the environment was very lively.

NetherlandsI missed a kitchen with a fridge where you can store some food and make a basic meal. There only is a mini microwave. Some more comfortable chairs or couches in the common area inside would also be nice.
I had a nice time during my stay and met some new people. They organize activities every day like a bike tour and free walking tours in the morning and in the evening activities like a wine tasting or bachata class. There is also an organized party tour every day. The location is great, good staff, proper hygiene and spacious lockers in the room that locks with the keycard. Airco worked fine. Comfortable bed, pillow, blanket and sheets.

BelarusThe room was too dark due to the small windows overlooking the tiny patio. The lockers were making horrible noise. That’s beyond inconvenient if you’re coming back late at night while other people are sleeping.

CanadaThe staff was rushed and kind of rude at times. They were more concerned about selling things at their bar. I found the beds very simple, not too comfortable for a long stay. The location is literally above a club and near a sketchy area, be careful at night.
The location is good for exploring. Breakfast is included and its pretty good. The daily walking tours were awesome! I appreciated that you can pay cash. Wish I knew that some rooms had a balcony as I LOVED that on my last day.

AustraliaNo cleaning service or rubbish bins in the rooms. Shower pressure was crazy
Room was tight and very minimal but perfect for a backpacker. Shared bathrooms were cleaned very frequently. Common area always had something happening, definitely a very social hostel. They offered a range of services and the included breakfast was much better than others I’ve had in Europe. The staff were lovely and always offered a hand.

United KingdomThere were 4 male bathrooms for the entire floor and for our entire stay the toilets did not seem to have been cleaned once. They did mop the floor and “refreshened” the space but the toilets were a bit grim. The prices were insane for a hostel. It was more expensive than a regular hotel in central with it’s own bathroom.
The location was great, the breakfast was alright and the rooftop area was really nice. The staff were energetic and excited. It came with some good “bonuses” as occasional free drinks

United KingdomMy partner and I got a private dorm and had no complaints! Staff and other guests were very friendly. Lots of activities planned by the hostel. Great place to meet people as everyone was drinking and sitting together on the terrace all nights we were there. The location was fantastic! Inside the main square next to La Rambla and the gothic quarters. So much to do and see and easy to get to the underground train system. Loved the location! At the end of the day it is a party hostel so if your staying in hostels and want to meet people while having a bunch of restaurants/bars/club at your door then it’s perfect!

New ZealandStayed in a 2 person private room (bunk beds) and it was very small and basic (all you need, no extra frills). But plugs were not next to the bed.
Awesome atmosphere, great to make friends. Terrace and on site food/bar was so great and the staff were friendly and organized lots of activities. The location was great, right off Las Ramblas so quite busy/touristy but close to lots of food places and to the metro to get around the city. Free breakfast was good, fruit, cerals, toast, bacon, etc. Was in a private room so didn't find it too noisy and our room had its own personal aircon which was great!
