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.).

ItalyReally enjoyed sleeping on the tent. it is basically like having your own private room with a lot of space and even a fan inside, it kind of reminded me of camping places, in a way smaller scale, where you have common bathrooms and showers. The staff were also very helpful and charismatic.

CanadaThe rooms are not AC (personal fan) for each bed and mosquito netting on open windows. Not a problem if good weather but bit damp and chilly when it’s raining. Some street dogs in the area at night but you just need to be the ‘alpha’ and they leave you alone.
Easy walk from ADO station, lagoon and centre. Some local shops/eateries nearby if you don’t want to walk to centre. Very clean and good garden and upstairs area to chill/socialize. The lady who runs it is very, very nice. (Let me wait there until my night bus.)

GermanyBig construction site next door (finished soon I guess), so it can be loud during the day, but I was out doing activities anyway and it didn’t bother me.
Such a beautiful hostel with eye for detail. Awesome rooftop to hang out in a hammock or do some yoga. Plenty more hangout space in the garden as well with a small kitchenette. Low season now so I was the only guest but this hostel has so much potential

A nice hostel with some really great chillout areas and comfortable beds. The personal fans in the room are an added bonus! Nice facilities overall and good vibes.

United KingdomIt would be nice if the kitchen had a little more in it, as it just has a microwave to cook with. To be honest, just the addition of an electric kettle would make a huge difference. It's a little way out of town, but just a 10-15 minute walk, so nothing major. Just a suggestion for the owner - the beds could do with a shelf or something to put the power socket on (which hangs down from above). I have a UK phone charger, and UK plugs are bulky and heavy. In order to use it, I have to use an even bulkier travel adaptor. This hangs down above you. One night one arm caught my phone charging cable as I slept, and my heavy plugs hit me in the face. It would be useful to be able to tuck them out of the way to avoid that happening.
I loved staying here! The whole hostel is beautiful. It's really nicely decorated and it has a lovely feel to it. The bed was super comfy and the showers were great. There is an adorable little cat there too. The owner was really nice and friendly, and very helpful. Fantastic location for the ADO bus station - just a 10 minute walk.

United StatesThis place was super cool. Wonderful rustic /camping vibe with an open air hot shower and equipped outdoor shared kitchen with outdoor seating area with shade. The fridge was a bit overstuffed, but didn’t matter for me in the end. Coffee served at the front desk was tasty. Dorms were decent size and had lockers and mosquito nets. Bed was comfortable for being a bunk. Lounge/upstairs deck area was relaxing and had a couple hammocks. The walk into town was nice, not too far. And it is relatively close to the bus station as well. There was a small issue that needs no mention other than the staff and owners handled it professionally and graciously. They made sure things were made right and I left feeling good. I would absolutely return!
