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.).

IsraelThe shared showers and toilets, although being very clean, feel unpleasant to use and there's no good option of where to hang your clothes and towel.
Friendly staff and good location at the city center. You can book many activities at the front desk and there's a free coffee machine in the kitchen.

NetherlandsThe breakfast should really be improved. It only has some white bread, croissants and muesli (without milk, only yoghurt?). When you arrive late, there’s nothing left.
I really enjoyed my stay here. Staff is super friendly and helpful - if you need anything, they immediately are ready. I couldn’t reach my locker because I am not tall enough, and they lended me a small thingy to stand on; even though they needed it for themselves. Also, in de kitchen in the evening is was very cozy and people were socializing, which was nice. I met some nice people there.

MexicoBadrooms can be cleaner and in better conditions, that’s why I give a 9 of 10
Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, dorms and particularly beds are amazingly comfortable (I stayed in a room of 4). Beds have a thick blind that give you privacy and prevent light from other beds.

BrazilThe dorm doors were quite thin, so I could hear from the dorm when people were loud in the living room or in the adjoining dorms, but is wasn't frequent. I slept with earplugs just in case and it wasn't a problem for me.
It is a very good hostel, I can't reccomend it enough: good location (one block from main street, you can walk everywhere); staff is super helpful and nice (from reception to the driver); they have their own shuttle to the busiest trails; breakfast is really good for a hostel; free coffee machine all day long; big lockers; wide bed with curtains, plugs and light, very comfy.

United KingdomThe noise from common area could be heard in the rooms. I would recommend that they get a proper door between the common and room areas, which would block the sound. The upper bunks also need a bar, as it's just a sheer drop off the mattress!
Great hostel and friendly staff. Clean and comfortable rooms with nice beds and lockers. Free breakfast and good kitchen and common areas.

ColombiaThe lockers are not well designed -- the ones in my dorm were awkward to get into and then most locks won't fit the locker, making it a real safety issue. Personal lockers in the bed space would be an excellent solution.
Its a great set-up for the most part - privacy blinds on the beds, a perfect sized social area to meet people, and in a great location! Staff were brilliant - Flor on the front desk was really helpful with organising tours etc and fixing any concerns straight away.

United Statesgreat hostel & staff BUT two improvements could make it even better are to enforce quite hours in the kitchen/common areas as the noise easily travels to the rooms above and on floor one. 2) Small thing but making the steps wider going to rooms 1-4! I’m young and those steps are far too narrow basically asking for someone to trip coming down them. cheers!
comfortable beds! good showers! helpful staff! free coffee and croissants! good cooking equipment & saw staff making improvements in food storage space which was needed & great!

United KingdomReally creaky floorboards through the property upstairs and in the bedrooms could wake people. The bathroom cubicles were very cramped too.
Friendly and helpful staff, really good place to meet people and organise tours too. Nice privacy curtains with the beds and big lockers for bags. Really warm and cosy throughout. Basic but decent breakfast available and free coffee machine was an extra bonus. Decent kitchen for cooking food. Comfy communal areas and the showers were hot.
