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 States-definitely a party hostel for people in their 20s and not recommended for sleep-sensitive people in their 30s. the hostel bar is noisy with music until 11pm every night. The plus is that the music did stop reliably at 11pm on the dot every night, and after that, it’s pretty quiet. But because they give you a voucher for a free drink upon check-in, most of your dormmates will probably be at the hostel bar and come into the room past 11pm when the bar closes, turning on lights, etc. -coffee is machine coffee only, so not that caffeinating -nice garden but would be better if they enforced a no smoking rule there because the smoke made it hard to enjoy -Pillows too empty and soft and no neck support. But that’s how all hostel pillows are. -the shower is the button kind that you press to make water come out with, but again, that’s in all hostels
-it feels like it’s run by a corporate chain in a good way, meaning they’ve thought of everything and have processes for everything, signage and processes run smoothly and efficiently, have a website and QR codes everywhere, luggage storage, etc. -privacy curtains on the dorm beds -Friendly and helpful staff -the kitchen is fancy! Like restaurant style, stainless steel

GermanyIt was extremely hot in the room and it wasn’t possible to change the A/C, only through front desk. Even when it was turned on it didn’t do much. I unfortunately didn’t sleep well. Also only 2 bathrooms on the floor, one of which had a shut door for the most part, but I think a guest did that. Anyways, it got a little crowded
Beautiful terrace and hostel looked really stylish! Great activities offered, kitchen was modern and clean, staff was super friendly!

TurkeyWhen you want to have breakfast the people who are responsible from the kitchen area saying that you are not allowed to have it unless you are paying and i was saying that yes after that i'll but they are not even listening, this is really rude manner, they need stop behaving their guests like burglars sorry for that but it was really insulting, i stayed lots of hostels it was the first I've been facing, for breakfast, usually they are asking your name and room number, I strongly recommend that..
It was the cleanest hostel I've ever stayed. The staff who was working at reception was really helpfull really appreciate for them.

United StatesBreakfast didn't have good vegan choices. It's a bit far from downtown but not too bad.
There were courtyards with recliners where guests could chill. The bar was also a nice addition. There were events every day in which solo guests could connect with each other. There were plenty of bathrooms and showers. They were kept clean well. Coffee was free for all guests, even if you don't buy breakfast from them, during the breakfast time.

United StatesThe neighborhood was a little wild at night; someone was loudly screaming at 4 am in drunk revelry, but that can't be controlled.
I love how close it is located to Bilbao station and to Se cathedral. Room was clean and easy to access.

United StatesThe showers didn’t drain well during my stay. Would’ve been good (in my case with no GPS) to have detailed map of the city available.
The breakfast was great light fare, and you can cook yourself eggs if wanted. Coffee is vending machine dispenser but good, kitchen is clean and nicely laid out like a restaurant. The room had four beds (steel bunks) with light blocking privacy curtains, USB/power and personal bed light; comfortable beds and no squeaking. A large drawer under the bed was quiet and made for easy access to belongings and keeping the room clean. The open windows were large with iron bars for security and allowed for great ventilation and cooling (AC also if needed). The bathroom was large with many stalls and showers, kept clean. The old convent garden was such a treat to relax in with comfortable lounge chairs or small tables, and their own bar/cafe! Beautiful restoration job and tastefully designed improvements. The key system is genius. 24/7 registration desk attendant; great help in navigating the city.

In the evenings there is another part of the garden open with drinks available and the vibes there are fantastic. The building itself is also really nice, and I liked that the top bunks had curtains for privacy and didn't creak like a lot of others do.
