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.).

PolandNoisy at night. The hostel does not have a quiet time at late hours. In addition, there is absolutely no sound insulation in the room. Unfortunately, this made it very difficult to fall asleep. cleanliness could also be at a higher level. there was hair, peanuts, dead bugs behind the bed 😅😅
Great staff. Free muffins and lemonade at the entrance :) I liked the location of the hostel. Near the transport stops.

New ZealandWe had a private room but it wasn't great value for money compared to other places ive stayed for the same price. Needed to ask for towels etc. and no hand towels and not much standing room.
The staff were really friendly. The bed was comfy enough and the shower was good.

FranceCot making noises at night.small locker is very important to keep our important stuffs.The lady's bathroom was not good. From shower water is not going properly. If they small dustbin inside the bathroom people can remove hair that is struck over the water strainer. Toilet they can clean better.
There is no breakfast. It's not a problem. Staffs are good. The location is also good.

AustraliaI thought the beds where loud and creaky and not super comfortable. The rooms also got super hot but they did have fans you could get from reception.
Loved that they had a super equipped kitchen and nice outdoor area. There is a local pool a stone throw away also. Staff where friendly and helpful.

AustraliaShower’s didn’t drain properly, the bed’s weren’t very comfortable and were super squeaky. This hostel wasn’t social either, much more of a family resort vibe but I didn’t mind it, everyone was friendly.
The staff were really friendly, the facilities were good, the rooms and showers were kept clean. They also have free muffins everyday!

FranceI honestly found the price excessive for a hostel of this level. Perhaps that is just Salzburg ...
Perfectly good basic hostel for visiting Salzburg. Reasonably well located in terms of old town. Staff friendly and helpful and quick to resolve issues. We for example found bed a little broken on arrival. Someone came up immediately to remedy the issue.

It was fine. I'm not much of a review person. As long as it was decent enough, I won't have much to say.

Chileit is a youth hostel which is fine but the price I paid for a single room was the price for a proper hotel room. it was way overpriced for what I got. I am a simple guy I don't need any luxury, but 100 euro for a hostal room is way too much.

JapanThe location is a lil bit far from Salzburg station. So if you need to travel early the next morning I don't think this is a good option. But yea, you cannot beat the price 😂
The price is so cheap even if I booked on same day. Just 37 euro. My bed is in a 4-bed dorm. Everything is ok except for the bed bcz it's made of steel so it's gonna make noise when you turn your body. A lil bit annoying sound. Reception is 24/7 and very helpful ❤️

United StatesThe accommodations didn't exactly match the pictures in the internet. Had we not asked, my husband would have ended up sharing a bedroom with 3 girls. We were shocked to say the least.
We were able to crash after a long day trip. We were thankful for free WiFi in the public areas. Free parking right next to the building was much appreciated.
