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.).

FranceObjectively I have no complaints to make. I just personally didn't feel as much at ease there as I usually do because I'm an older (than average here) bit dirty kinda hippie backpacker (I do take showers lol, but hey, it's 37°C outside in the shadows, don't expect me to smell like flowers all the time, there's only so much clothes I can bring with me ;)). I wanted to see what an "expensive" hostel looked like in Athens. It's great if you're into it and I had a good stay don't get me wrong, but I personally feel better in cheap ~10€/night hostels where it's pretty darn hard to feel like (rightly or wrongly so) you might be disturbing someone...
Very clean, welcoming staff, feels secure (I mean to leave your valuables in the room - the area is totally safe too). Besides the dorms themselves, it looks more like a good hotel than it does your average hostel (which may be reflected in the price though, even if still quite affordable...). It's located in the heart of the Exarcheia neighborhood, the neighborhood used to have a slightly bad rep in like 2011 when I then had lived in Athens for a while. The area is still remarkable for its large amount of anarchist and antifa tags, more towards the Lycabettus Hill side - that can make for a nice little photo-safari kind of thing if you're into it ;) Now the neighborhood feels 100% safe and the numerous bars and restaurants are full of tourists. I was slightly disappointed by this, but this is not the hostel's fault, and I have weird tastes so... do with that what you want. I feel better closer to Omonia now, things have changed here too...

United StatesThe bathroom doors are really heavy to open and close and some of the showers needed repairing. Noise from within the hostel as well as the courtyard echoed up to the rooms and could be loud late at night.
I loved this hostel. I loved the neighborhood it was in so, so much and felt safe there walking alone at night. So many restaurants and nearby bars. At least a 20 minute walk from central Athens, so more on the outskirts. The beds were cozy and the hostel had a nice vibe. Really enjoyed the staff there, they were super funny and helpful. It definitely wasn’t a party hostel, but they did provide nightly pub crawls and some activities for the guests.

IndiaThis was my first hostel experience, and I am very pleased by it. Very, very sweet and helpful people, making sure I have everything I need. Extremely clean rooms and washrooms. If you forget something- they have it available at really cheap. Contrary to belief, thee area is lively, and the safety remains paramount. No random person can enter the hostel, unless escorted by a member. Nice little area at the back with cool breeze. The hostel also tries to promote social gatherings, which is much appreciated. Was nice to meet some really nice people, and make new friends. Fat wifi, equipped kitchen, everyday cleaning, truly wonderful. I thought I forgot something in the hostel, and I had to bother them again, but they were very kind and sweet to entertain me even after my checkout and assist me wherever they can! Very thankful experience, and I do hope to come back again soon! Thankyou!
