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.).

IrelandComfy small hostel. The staff were fabulous, so friendly and helpful. The rooms were basic but had all you needed, with big lockers that came with keys. Our dorm had a big balcony with tables and chairs and a nice view. The rooftop is nice to chill, some dumbbells and yoga mats if you wanna workout. The kitchen was good, small but fully functional for cooking. The bathrooms were hit and miss, no sink in one, so you needed to use the kitchen sink to wash your hands, the downstairs one was nicer and bigger. The water pressure/temp was unreliable in the upstairs one and the curtain was a little worse for wear, but all small issues. Location was perfect, near bars and restaurants, close to the beach, nice views. Overall I loved this place. Thanks guys ✌️

New ZealandStairs. There's a decent amount of stairs . The bathroom wasn't the greatest, but it was clean.
My room was really nice . Came with a locker and a key so you could safely store your belongings. There was a small kitchen upstairs you could cook in. The location was good , a 7-minute walk to a supermarket and 3 minutes into the city center where there are lots of bars and restaurants.

SloveniaThe only thing that bothered me was the constant noise outside of the room because of a pub. However, it is a very lively destination so that is to be expected. The windows in the rooms are good enough not to let the noise interfere with sleep.
The hostel is great with friendly and accommodating staff, even after your check-out ir before the check-in (no problem with leaving luggage there or using their facilities). Would recommend to anyone who wants to travel at an affordable price and meet friendly people.

GermanyThe dormroom doors didn't lock and everyone could just come inside. Staff came into our rooms unannounced and even used one of our lockers even though they didn't stay in our room. I wished the rooms had a code or a card to feel safer. Also the shower rooms don't make any sense: to have 3 showers in one room, if I enter alone, I will lock the door and therefore block the other two showers. Plus the toilets inside. Also the beds were very squeaky and didn't have any mini lamps or hooks to hang stuff, which can be very handy.
I was moved to the Macarena Hostel because it was a quieter area. Tommy was SO GREAT. He really has passion for his job and takes care of his guests and hangs out. I liked the pool table and the kitchen was pretty nice as well. The showers are new and fancy. Location is great, you can walk to several beaches from there, the city center and night life are also super close. The people I met there were great and I had a really nice time.

United KingdomI'm not sure it can brand itself as a "party hostel" as there doesn't seem to be any events going on. Maybe that is because I went in October (off-season). However, there were still a few people in the hostel at the time, so maybe something could have been organised.
Good location in the old town for accessing everything that you possibly need to by walking, including buses from the waterfront for onward travel. It is quite a walk from the bus and train station, but most other hostels in this price range seem to be anyway. Very clean and comfortable beds. Two of the bathrooms looked quite small, but I had the bedroom with the en-suite between 6 people which was handy. The kitchen felt basic at first, but then it is a small hostel, so it was fine for the number of people. Nice rooftop area to hang out, but beware that if it is raining, there aren't any decent communal areas to hang out in.

ItalyThere is no sink in one of the bathroom and the kitchen is a bit small (but well equiped and that's the most important). Overall, not really cosy but fonctionnal so it's really ok for the price.
The hostel is really near the city center, the rooftop is so cool to spend time with people (when the weather is nice).
