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.).

EstoniaThe vent was a little bit loud, but that was not really an issue.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Had a four bedroom to ourselves which we really appreciated. There are personal lockers, you can get keys from the reception. Very nice location not far from the centre and in a lovely park area. Very effective darkening curtains.

Felt very homey and communial. Everything was clean, including the guest kitchen despite its hard use. Staff was very nice.

United KingdomThe pillows were very thin. I had to use two to get a decent night's sleep. Like lots of places in Sweden they don't accept cash which is a bit of a pain.
The hostel was in a pleasant location in a park. The staff were nice, it was clean, the breakfast was good.

GermanyThe people were very friendly, and the atmosphere was really nice, there were lots of young people but also a few families. We (two people travelling together) had the room for ourselves, which is, I think, the habit, it was definitely a pleasant surprise not having to share the room, although we booked "two beds" in a room according to Booking.com. The room had a bunk bed, and two beds you could pull down (or leave up in case you didn't need them, so you had more space in the room), also a table and two chairs. There were enough toilets and showers available for all the people, and there was a big kitchen you could use equipped with everything you need as well as a dining room, that was really nice. Also the hostel breakfast was nice, there was bread, yogurt, scrambled egg, some toppings, which was a good value for the price.

NetherlandsCleanliness could be improved. Would recommend to vacuum the mattresses every now and then and also the bed frame could use some vacuuming. Hallways were pretty noisy with kids running around and doors slamming. At night it was quiet though.
Nice area in the city, urban garden vibe was cool. Quiet area as well, 10 min walk to metro. Tip, if you have luggage get off at Hornstull instead of Zinkensdamm, then you don't have to go down the many stairs in the neighborhood. The breakfast was good (had the hostel one). Room is ok, mattress a bit thin, but was able to put 2 on top of each other as I had a private bunk room, then it was ok. Bathrooms were fine, good water power in showers. Friendly staff and nice that you can buy drinks, snacks at the reception. Bar/cafe is great as well.

Breakfast was great, good selection and good price. Quadruple room was small but that's expected for the price. Lovely location, very quiet, next to a park. Beds were comfortable. Had a nice view from our room over an internal courtyard with picnic benches and lawn.

CanadaBathrooms were a little worn and dated but adequate. The location has both positive and negative aspects. It’s in a charming family area close to a swimming beach and a cool and vibrant high street but getting from the hostel to other parts of the city is a bit of a trek and the public transit options are not great.
Clean and comfortable room. Nice indoor and outdoor common spaces, friendly staff.
