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.).

EstoniaThe breakfast could have included porridge and another egg option (scambled or soft-boiled). The coffee was watery. The bathroom only had an electric hand dryer (no paper towels) and my room was next to the bathroom, so the constant noise of the dryer was annoying at night.
Great customer service. Felt safe. Lots of events. Endless food options in the neighbourhood. The front of the house was cool and had personality. Convenience store in the same house. Doors between the lobby and the sleeping area were soundproof. Bedrooms windows faced away from the street so the outside was quiet. You could rent earplugs, towels etc necessities. Shampoo/soap was free. Lockers were convenient. Each bed has a lamp. Good value for money. People of all ages were visiting, so I didn't feel old, which was nice.

LatviaAfter the opportunity to physically check-in, I had to deal with staff who were still unfamiliar with customer service. Better to queue for half an hour than to have to step away from paperwork. I was surprised by this approach to a live person who wants to use the service.

FinlandThe soundproofing was near-nonexistent so you can hear everything from inside the building as well as from the outside, but I slept okay with earplugs. I would have wished for a bidet in the toilets, as well as paper hand towels instead of a dryer. My room was right across from the bathroom+shower, and I could hear the loud hand dryer every time someone used it in the bathroom. A quieter method of drying hands would be preferable especially during the night.
I booked a double room with shared bathroom because I wanted my own room for the stay. I didn't expect anything luxurious, and the room ended up being better than I had expected. It was simply furnished but clean, and most importantly the bed was wide and very comfortable. The shared bathroom facilities were functional and looked clean.

PolandStaff gave me card for wrong locker but it was fine since there was no one to use it anyways.
Hostel is quite big, there's a lot of common spaces that I didn't had time to use so I can't say much. It's a little outside of the city center but there's tram going very often. You get a card to open the door and use locker. The room was clean (toilets not so much but that's because of people I guess). In female dorm every bunk bed is placed separately which gives some privacy for guests. And I really like that in the bathroom also every toilet is placed separately with sink and showers had lot of shelves to keep your stuff behind the curtain while taking a shower.

The kitchen crowd meeting lots of people from all over the world.. Toilets are super clean you don't need to que up, the setting of keeping your stuff not to get wet is brilliant way attention to detail Bed a bit small but comfortable The housekeeping are doing a great job for keeping all facilities clean from time to time not just a normal one time routine. Highly recommended for all budget travellers like me :)

TurkeyI hated the other residents. The quarter I was staying in was a 2 bunk bed place, and every single one of the other residents smelled awful. I remember one morning I woke up 2 hours earlier than my alarm because the guy under me smelt horrible. So, I think this property either needs a better ventilation system, or some other way to arrange the beds so that the smell doesn’t accidentally kill anyone.
The property was well cleaned, even though there were lots of people staying there. The staff were really nice in general. I was worried since this was my first solo travel experience but the kindness of the staff took all my worries away. Specifically, a young man called Celal talked to me in my first night and was really friendly in general, and I thank him for this kind act. The events that they held (I witnessed two of them) seemed fun, even though i was too nervous to join any of them.

Hong KongThe only not so good point was the location. It's quite far from the Central Station. So, if you had not driven on your car, you always needed to take the public transport to go to the visiting areas.
The hostel was managed well and properly. Everything was systematic and well prepared. Each bunk bed was separated by a partition. It looked like an individual room and gave a high privacy to the guests.

United KingdomMetal beds a little noisy, blinds don't really work so bring eye mask, key card lockers in rooms are not secure, which I discovered on my second night of staying there, where my room key card managed to open another locker in the room (which I discovered by chance when I accidently opened the wrong locker thinking it was mine). There are signs on the lockers saying staff cannot be held responsible for items left in them, but there is no way of using own padlock on them, so after my discovery, just kept valuables locked in my backpack.
Great hostel vibe, very friendly staff, clean, key cards, very handy having a supermarket in the building.
