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.).

PolandThe beds are squeaky and too soft for my taste.
Great location, great price and probably the best ratio of comfort to price in the whole town. Very nice staff. Rooms are spacious, so even though many people are sleeping in one room you still have air to breathe.

United KingdomYou have to leave your key behind when you step out, which I can understand but it took me almost 10 minutes to track somebody so I can return to my room. That's the only downside.
The hostel is a short ten minutes walk from the Old Town. I was quite impressed with the bar being open till 10, why? They were actively inviting people to come and meet new people, hang out and make new friends. Quite something when you're travelling alone; I ended up meeting two people and we were out until 5am! The bedrooms are very well kept, the beds are very comfortable and I was out like a light when I lay down.

AustraliaLevel 1 where my dorm was and where the cooking/eating space is had terrible WiFi. Ground floor and Third floor were much better. They need a WiFi repeater or mesh on the first floor. You had to make your own bed and all the sheets I was left had multiple blood stains on them.
The location is great, the setup with key codes to different areas were good, nightly activities were a good way to meet other travelers, the shelf with charging points on each bed was good, and the locker space in the room was good. :)

United KingdomIt's a hostel, a lot better than two star in Australia that I last stayed in.
We had the dorm with bathroom (15b) on second floor rear, overlooking the massive gardens to the rear of the neighbouring property. It was very clean and tidy despite some negative reviews and very quiet.

RomaniaThere was no elevator, so the 3rd floor is frustrating to get to, with all the luggage We had the feeling we were in a hospital. The metal doors in the hallway, codes for every area, metal beds, the blue paint on the walls, all these gave us an eerie feeling. It would be nice to have some color somewhere. The bunk beds were squeaky, so we woke each other up many times when we moved. The bathrooms are mixt, so that is quite uncomfortable. When I entered to brush my teeth, there was a guy just coming out of the shower. He was embarrassed, and so was I. He hid back in the shower, and I hid in the toilet. It was cringe. You get a bed sheet, a pillow, and a blanket case, so you have to do and undo your own bed, which is not much, but we never experienced this before in other hostels. It was just new, that is all.
Location was great. It is very close to every important points of interest. It is also close to the bridge, and of course, to Vistula river, where hou can find many on--water restaurants The room was clean and large enough. Matresses were comfortable. The shared bathrooms were clean and there was hot water. It was quiet The ladies at the reception are very nice. There is good free wi-fi in the room. There are board games you can rent from the reception

Italysometimes i prefer rooms with max 4 beds, to socialize a little. avoiding unpleasant situations typical of sharing the same space. ... i hate people who snore. and during my stay, they put me with people who snore. even though i had earplugs, there was a guy who snored so loudly that they could hear him on the whole floor. i anticipated my departure and asked to check out the night before.
when i go to krakow, i usually book in this hostel. at least until today....

UkrainePersonnel is the worst I’ve seen so far in Poland. They try to speak nicely, but what they really want to tell you is that you are their slave and please feel that all the time you are there! Also, some rooms have windows at the street with trams, so can be quite noisy.
