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.).

CroatiaCharging for keeping the luggage after check-out. I have been in 104 countries in the world, and have never met such a practice. So, I took my bags and went on the beach, trailing my suitcase under the sun...
Almost everything was perfect - check in, rooms, beds, spaciousness, kitchen. I have not seen a more beautiful receptionist in my life

SerbiaAir conditioning in my room was set to only 23 degrees the first few days so it was a bit cold. Beds are ok for my height but I think for a taller person could be short. My room was super narrow, though others weren't. There were two girls in my room, I think they actually work in the hostel, that often came in the middle of the night and were then talking and turning the lights on. They would also keep the window open while air conditioning was on (I don't like sparing electricity). They also kept lots of their things on and under the table in the room so anyone else couldn't use that part of the room.
Everything is clean, there is air-conditioning in every room, curtains, shelf, lamp, socket near every bed, good wi-fi, friendly staff, lots of signs that remind you how you should behave... One day I came with a huge inflatable swan and they let me store it in a separate room!

United Arab EmiratesI probably missed that private rooms don't have a bathroom or toilet, but it was still ok.
Great location to discover the town. 15 min walk from the Bus station, and just 3 from the Old town. Best option to walk around. Would definitely recommend. Clean, nice decor, all needed equipment in common areas.

TurkeyRoom and the bed's wooden parts are squeeky. It's not a problem for me bur it made me nervous because I had to get up very early and didn't want to disturb the roomies
I really loved the location and the system. It's great if you have to early check out.

United Kingdommy mattress not amazing and sheet kept coming off but a small criticism. bed space and little curtain and rest of room all excellent.
really nice professional and friendly staff who were more than happy to give few minutes local knowledge that was really helpful and made my short stay much better. Big and comfortable dorms although my mattress and bed were not as comfy as other hostels. Otherwise i would give the hostel a 10. So a small negative. Very nice atmosphere in the hostel which is sustained by the thoughtful setup and organisation (like nice lockers, plenty of showers, good signage in all rooms on being respectful and fantastic kitchen space and fridges and details like stickers to put on food so fridges don't stink 😃. Had some great conversations in the hostel, the cleanliness was superb and the air conditioning was a saviour in the heat. Location is great as centre of town but in a quiet street with nice locals cafe next door (discreet but do try it!), and near bus stop to beach. Good supermarkets about 20 mins walk, and mini markets 5 min walk. 2 minutes to the archway / Ulyßes café, 40 min walk to good beaches. The kitchen mural of Corto M was very nice. Thank you team Antique.

Germany1st and 2nd floor are separated by access. Not much hanging out between people, even though there is a WhatsApp group. Hope that improves overtime. Bathrooms on the 1st floor are very nice and cleaner. If you are a woman I recommend booking female dorm. 2nd floor is less nice generally. Not sure if it's also cheaper. But if you can go on the first floor. I don't remember if female dorm was charged more, generally I hate this practice of hostels. Women on average earn less money but have to pay more for their safety and quietness/cleanliness/being comfortable during changing clothes? Makes no sense. I hate this practice from all hostels that do that. Again, WOMEN EARN LESS ON AVERAGE. IF GIVEN THE OPTION 99% OF WOMEN WOULD PREFER ALL FEMALE DORMS! Not all cultures are respectful towards women. Also, not so nice is they try to charge for everything extra that normally is free, like storing luggage for a day etc. these services normally come free with other hostels, but to each their own.
Overall great experience, clean, superb location. All sights are within walking distance.
