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.).

United KingdomNot a social hostel at all. Everyone was just going about their own business. No lounge area to relax. The only communal seating areas are the rooftop and the kitchen.
The room was great, especially with the ensuite bathroom. Kitchen area is huge and always clean and tidy. Nice pool area and great location for easy access to the sights in Brisbane.

AustraliaI didn't like the noise coming from the upstairs common area when people were dragging chairs around and playing ping pong at 11:45pm (but only happened the first night). Train noises throughout the night but you forgot about them after the first night.
The only Card entry to the common area. The sharing food spot in the pantry. the location of the accommodation in relation to the CBD. The range of activities on offer at YHA. We loved the different aesthetics of each floor and the simplistic beauty of the furnishing of our room. The shared kitchen was big enough for everyone to have a station and the fridges with the days they get cleaned out and the outside eating area. We loved that they had roof top bar although we weren't able to get there. The baggage storage and carpark were great when we needed to leave.

United KingdomThe location was a bit inconvenient if walking places but didn’t matter too much.
The rooms were spacious with huge lockers and aircon. Bathrooms were decent, wish there were more than 2 showers to each bathroom though. Common areas were nice and kept pretty clean but the rooftop pool and bar is what sold it for me. Amazing!! The downstairs cafe was lovely too!

AustraliaI drove up but was unable to park at the premises as was fully booked when asked about parking nearby was told to park on streets surrounding but due to concert at Suncorp had to park miles away and Uber to accomodation. I should have been told this when booking as it said parking available.
The location was fantastic as we had a concert at Suncorp stadium just across the road.

AustraliaIt's like a maze inside. Rooms are quite hot when air conditioning is off. The hill in the hot sun sucks.
Rooftop bar and pool. The location would be perfect if you didn't have to walk up hill, but then there's no spectacular view!

AustraliaCar parks are limited, only 6 onsite car park. The shower in the room is poorly designed, causing the water to spray outward and coat the walls instead of reaching the person showering. It was also very frustrating that the air conditioner turned off on its own while sleeping.
The price was reasonable and budget friendly. Staffs are super friendly.

New ZealandSlightly far from CBD but still doable by walking. There was only one washroom for per floor thus in the morning struggled a bit to use it. And during my stay, there were some long term guests in my room but basically it is not a hostel’s fault.
Overall was a great experience. The price was budget friendly but all common facilities were pretty clean and worked well. Lockers were provided for each guest and bed was comfy enough. Could rent a towel and hairdryer hence makes your bag lighter. Staff are friendly and helpful. The hostel has its own cafe and bar so can use if you’re keen. It has a swimming pool on the rooftop so good option for sunbathing with some wine imo.
