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.).

This place was amazing. I loved the setup, kitchen, movie room, outdoor space, and all the different varieties of rooms. Was a very relaxing vibe hidden away. My first ever stay at a hostel type accommodation. Never thought it would have been so cool like this. Big shout out to the owners. Next time, i will book direct to keep you guys running as long as possible. I will stay again and recommend to friends and family travelling Australia.

United KingdomSuch a cute place! Everything is decorated in such a cool way, it makes you feel right at home, unlike all the nondescript hostels. Pool is so refreshing. Has everything you need. Really liked the rainforest sounds in the toilet! Walkable distance to town.

SwitzerlandAt night the road is a rather dark road to get back to the hostel. The staff is not really informed on the shuttle buses to and from the airport or the opening hours of the shops in town. You will have to figure that out by yourself.
The atmosphere of the hostel is very relaxing and nice. A lot of fun decoration items scattered around, the reading room is nice, the kitchen is very clean, so are the bathrooms.

AustraliaOnly con would be toilets, only one in girls bathroom and 2 showers so could do with more but understandable given size and location of hostel.
Lovely small family owned business, awesome vibe and so nicely set up. Hostel very cosy with great facilities, including pool, cinema room and even tiny caravans for dorms! Air con great and good sized kitchen/laundry facilities. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Location is good, just outside of town centre but easy walk in and still very much feels like you’re in the outback!

United KingdomSome bits are a little rough around the edges but you get what you pay for. The AC seemed to go off at night.
Really affordable spot in Alice Springs. Nice friendly vibe and great social spaces too. Really appreciated how close it was to the center of town, and walking distance too/from the Greyhound bus stop.

AustraliaAll good, maybe one extra washing machine, as there was only one and a few people were in line for it
The atmosphere of the hostel was calm and peaceful. It is a very unique hostel in it's decoration and layout. The rooms and beds are comfortable and the location is perfect, not too far from the centre but far enough for it too be quiet. The garden is very nice, especially on a breezy night!

CanadaThe room had a bit of a weird smell, but not overpowering ... maybe due to humidity.
A very cute hostel, with an eclectic style. The gardens are lovely and the pool is much appreciated. The rooms were clean and had basic furnishings with AC. The owners were absolutely lovely people. Downtown core was about a 10 minute walk away. Great value for the price!

The staff members I met were not only friendly but also very knowledgeable and helpful. In fact, nothing was too much trouble for James and he gave me a lot of great advice. Both Rachel and James are excellent communicators!
