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.).

CanadaThe bathroom in the third floor seemed a bit dirty and the roof of the bathroom of the second floor is leaking. I think they should consider fixing that immediately and maybe remodeling the bathroom in the third floor which is all wood for some strange reason. I guess that is the reason for the leak downstairs from it. Anyway, fixing that immediately will prevent great damage and costs to this establishment in the future.
It’s a nice little place and is in a good location between to major metro lines.

IsraelThe assigned locker in the room was closed for some reason, and the staff couldn't manage to resolve the situation. Fortunately, I was going to stay only one night. In the morning around 08:00 there was nobody from the staff around, and I couldn't find them or contact anyhow because I didn't know if they are even there, there were no signs or instructions except the phone number that nobody picked up either by cellular or WhatsApp. I wanted to get my things back that I asked to put at the reception because of the locked situation above. This made me stress because I almost became late to the bus and had to run all the way through the streets afterwards, thanks to the guy who also wanted to check out in the morning and helped me to find one person from the staff sleeping in one of the separate rooms.
Overall politeness of the staff and cleanness of the hostel and facilities. Other tenants there were nice. The place looks and feels safe. You can find anything you will need for your stay.

IsraelI wrote them in advance that my bus was to arrive in Sete Rios at 6:15AM, but when I arrived the hostel door was locked, they hadn't given me the entry code in advance, so I had to sit outside until the receptionist opened at 9AM. :( The Palestine flag in the lobby. :( I would rather keep politics out of my travelling. Their drier doesn't work and they don't have enough pegs to hang the laundry outside. Some parts could use some paint, like the ceiling of the shower. They hide a lovely azulejo in the lobby behind another painting, that's a shame. :( The staff is new to Lisbon, so when I asked some more complicated questions they couldn't help.
I actually stayed 2 weeks and a half. until Aug 14. The staff is really serious about cleaning the place, and also gave me a rechargeable navegante card for free! The tables in the lobby are comfortable for working on a laptop. The garden is also nice. :) Each bed has a curtain for privacy, a personal fan, light, electric plugs and a locker. I love the neighbourhood with the old colourful tiles :) It's conveniently located close to busses, metro, trains and a supermarket.

ItalyThe whole hostel seemed a bit old, not too clean and the showers weren't private so I was scared someone might have come in *thankfully didn't happen* A bit far from the city centre but really close to the metro and to the airport. So if you spend a night out, you might have to take a taxi back to the hotel or walk like I did *which was almost an hour back haha*
I really liked the staff, they were really kind and understanding. Make sure to bring your padlock as they don't offer it. The kitchen is good if you want to cook something and the room is quite spacious, it's a typical hostel where you will get your moneys worth.

United StatesI made my reservation 6 months in advance for an all-female dormitory bed. When I arrived, I was informed that the dorms were now mixed. This was disconcerting at first, but it soon became clear this was not a concern. People were respectful.
I chose this hostel because of its location near the Gulbenkian Foundation. It turned out to be better than expected, because both are located within walking distance from the San Sebastian Metro stop (on Red or Blue Lines). This also makes it very accessible from the Lisbon Airport. A very nice Lidl supermarket was also a few blocks away. However, in addition to all the other conveniences, the managers made me feel so welcome when I arrived late, about 10:00 PM, owing to delays at the Airport and on the Metro. I had a reservation, but I was worried because some hostels will try to fill beds. Not in my case. They welcomed me. I will always remember them and will not forget the gracious smiles of the hosts.
