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.).

LithuaniaBe aware that during more humid months, towards late spring/summer, the room gets very damp and hot. Even though the AC works great and there is a possibility to open a window, it was hard to keep room air comfortable for sleeping and being there during daytime. Also, the kitchen is closed for late evening. No space to properly hang clothes.
Amazing location with close tranportation stations, several nice little restaurants and convenience stores within a walking distance. If you bring heavy suitcases, be aware that the nearest metro station has a looot of stairs and the hostel also has only stairs. The neighborhood is not touristy and quiet. Little rooms, but we even had two big suitcases and it still worked out fine. AC worked great. They provide extra towels and a kettle for each room, as well as shower gel, shampoo, slippers. Did let us leave our luggage before checking in. The host is always at the property during daytime, very friendly.

United KingdomNo complains! The room is small but it’s very reasonable for its price.
The location was great for accessing the city, being near DDP station exit 7. It was also near an airport limousine bus stop, Baiton Hotel. The boss was very kindly and helped us with whatever enquiries we had and they kept the place really clean too. Everything worked well, the beds were neither too soft nor hard, and the room had good soundproofing from the outside (not between rooms, but people were considerate).

AustraliaGetting to the hostel from the subway exit 7 was a bit of a hassle because there were quite a number of stairs. I think there is another better way to get there, but not a big issue!
Although it was on the smaller side, we didn’t mind it. It was clean and cozy. We could always come back knowing that we would be warm and comfortable. Perfect for the cold weather. Provided all the essentials. The owner was very friendly and helped us out with what we needed (luggage storage, directions, helping with luggage). It was not noisy at all.

United StatesI really enjoyed my stay here. The host was very kind and helpful. When I arrived he helped me carry my luggage to my room. He even helped me with the laundry. The room in nice and quaint and the bathroom is a nice size. It was in a good location just a couple minutes walk away from trains and buses. And this was all for a reasonable price. I'll deff stay here again the next time I visit Seoul!

United KingdomThis is not really anything to do with the property but I would probably choose the metro rather than airport bus... It's a lot cheaper and, if you're like me - someone who drinks a lot of fluids - there is a toilet at every Seoul metro station, so you could always get off for that as there's not one on the bus. However, the driver 'may' stop for you ;) - This is my 9th visit to Korea, so I'm always experimenting with modes of transport.
Lovely owner and wife, and the simple rooms have everything you need & are very clean. I can't fault this place. Close to a couple of different subway stations and near to the DDP / Dongdaemun Design Plaza. Thank you.

CanadaThe walls are pretty thin so you can hear your neighbors late at night or early morning. But the owner does provide ear buds if you need. Also the towels provided are only hand sized towels so for people with long hair it might be inconvenient.
The location was good. It was close to multiple subway lines. It was also close to many markets such as Gwangjang market. The owner is very nice and will try to help such as bringing luggage up the stairs and helping weigh the luggage before you leave. It was also good value for money. The space was tight but that was to be expected from a decently priced hostel.
