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.).

GermanyThe location was ideal for me: 2min walk from the bus station and the city centre was just around the corner. I was welcomed by the friendly owners and shown to my cute room which was comfy and nicely decorated. As it was to the back of the building I hardly heard anything. The shower was hit & powerful. Both bathroom and bedroom were clean and looked well maintained. The common kitchen was large and had all necessities available. The wifi was working very well (strong signal).

PolandIt's quite cramped in the room. There is a high concentration of beds in the room and one shower for eight people, but this is not very important for a successful stay.

New ZealandNo hairdryers available, and showers lack shelving. Beds are also very loud for some reason so you pretty much hear every toss and turn.
Good location – very close to the bus station and within walking distance to a couple of beaches. Kitchen is sparse but good if you want to prepare something simple

United StatesIt was utterly freezing. I understand this was the case for many places during this time of the year. They had a tiny space heater, but it didn't really do anything.
The hostel was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the linens were fresh. It was also in a great, central location.

BelgiumThe bathrooms should get an upgrade. But they were clean so it's fine.
Good central locations, good beds, good owners. Stayed in the room of 10, had enough space to put my bags. Two bathrooms with a toilet in, wich was enough. The bathrooms were clean, good showers if you figure out the system. We only went there to sleep and shower, we always ate in the city center. If you decide to always eat at the hostel, there are nicer ones. But we had everything we needed.

United StatesToo many beds/people in 1 room. No where to put bags except on the floor, made it a bit cramped but the bathroom was big.
You have to crawl into the beds, like a den, which gives you privacy when you close the curtain at your feet, but unfortunately not much air. Well equipped kitchen and the staff are great! My room had a tiny outdoor sitting space which was nice. Great location! 5 minute walk to bus station, 10 minutes to the beach & grocery store.
