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 KingdomNothing 😊 Just be aware that you are booking budget.
Really good budget hostel about 5mins walk from the main Jonker street area. It is definitely budget, but it's clean and has everything you need. My room had good aircon and a fan as well. Free coffee and tea offered in the kitchen and a water filter available. Really nice communal spaces including a roof terrace and living room area. They offer group activities every day.

NetherlandsThe bed was horrible. You are laying on the springs of the mattress. The bathrooms were not very clean, the whole building could use some maintenance.
Staff was very friendly Friendly atmosphere created by the staff. A lot of people hang out at night to chat but it's not noisy. Would definitely recommend a stay to meet up other people.

BelgiumThe beds in the separate rooms are a bit on the older side, but the rooms are cosy and definitely enough for a simple stay.
The hostel is very very very fun and social!! They are all very open and give lots of tips for your visit! There is a very nice rooftop to chill and enjoy the view and the company!

The staff and the other people staying were really great. As soon as you walk in you’re made to feel welcome. There’s regular tours and trips to a mix of tourist sites as well as some more local things to keep you busy.

AustriaThe capsule is only as big as the mattress. It’s closed with a lock, so when people are coming home during the night it’s really loud while opening the lock. Seemed also that the people didn’t really care about being not to loud (not the fault of the hostel, but there should be a quiet time after 10pm) there is no locker for your bag, you can put it in a small room wich is open for everyone in the doorm. So for your valuables there is only the shelf in the capsule.
There is a pool at the rooftop and one at the level of the entrance. The rooftop is big and looks nice. The staff is really friendly. There is a light, a plug in two shelfs and two hooks in the capsule. You can lock the capsule while you are in. There are a lot of toilets and showers are separated.
