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.).

United KingdomMy expectations in booking a hostel, even though it was a single-occupancy room, were fairly low, so I was more than happily surprised by the set-up at Perth UHI Hostel. A corridor with only 4 rooms on it, a shared kitchen/lounge facility with all the appliances and utensils needed and, being on the top floor, a good view from the balcony. I couldn't have asked for more, and the staff were very approachable and helpful with all my enquiries. I'd definitely stay there again.

United KingdomThe mattress would slide down the bed frame, only a minor inconvenience, the wardrobe door in my room was broken, leaving it unusable, not great if you're staying more than a couple of nights. The bedding had a slight musty smell but a little spray with febreeze and it was okay
Cheap and cheerful room, close to the city centre, most facilities in good working order, fully equipped kitchen if you needed it. Friendly helpful staff member checking people in. Free car parking on site, which was very close to the block I was in. All of the communal areas were very clean and kept tidy at all times. Comes with bedding, which I know some hostels don't, so that's a bonus.

United KingdomThere was no towel in the room - I guess it was a mistake but it was a bit annoying. Next time, I'll check for the presence of a towel before getting into the shower.
Check in was easy and the room offered a bed, and a shower. All that was required.

DenmarkThere was only 3 plates, glasses in the kitchen etc. And there was 4 beds in the apartments.
We didn't buy breakfast. But we bought some food in a nearby store and had it in our kitchen. That worked very well. It was nice to have a kitchen/living room to use in the evenings for talking and relaxing in the evenings.

United KingdomNothing.
The youth hostel room was a single bedroom with ensuite shower/bathroom. Shared kitchen had a balcony with an amazing view. Plenty of sockets in my room, nice warm shower, wifi was ample for my needs. It was easy to find and not too far from Town Centre. I left the car at YHA carpark and walked in, in 30 mins very easily. Morrisons supermarket was local too. Perth museum in town was free to visit with a great cafe.

United KingdomAccidentally fell off the chair that was faulty (didn't notice at first) and quite small. There was also no brush or other cleaning tool left in a toilet. Didn't have much expectations about the kitchen but there was no dishes cleaner or any soap left, anyways that is not a big issue. Last one thing - didn't like the fact that they want you to have your own detergent for laundry service. Usually backpackers who travels by public transport do not bring the whole box of washing powder with them, especially when need only one wash. I didn't ask anything about it in reception, but that was written very clearly on the laundry doors.
Staff very friendly and welcoming, apartment in my block was quite empty and quiet, kitchen big and comfortable, there was no other guests so i could use it alone. Bed was comfortable enough for me. Place not as bad as expected as you can catch a bus to the town center or opposite way that goes up to Stirling (I used 7-days east Scotland rider ticket so didn't have to buy a ticket every single time), and besides that is not too long for a walk for those who walking a lot). It's a good place to stay for a good price
