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 KingdomI didn't like the hallways, it felt like walking into a council flat. I didn't like the people in the room leaving the light on until extremely late then other people having it on or opening the curtains really early in the morning. I didn't like how my room had hardly any soap in the toilets. The luggage room in your room was tiny and open, could do with lockers so you can lock your personal things away. The safe was pointless. When checking in at reception, they was more interested in letting larger groups check in first even if you was before them in the queue. Didn't like the fact you had to pay for a pool game, should be free in a hostel. They had lamps on your bed, if you get the bottom bunk, the light from the top bunk shines very brightly through to the bottom, it wasn't nice
I liked that you could store your luggage for the day until your flight. I liked having charger near your bed. The shower room was OK

FranceWhen you arrive it looks more like a hotel than a hostel and for some reasons. No space to socialize, just a kind of large living room at the entrance with a pool table. no outdoor space, no yard, no rooftop. You can only go outside at the entrance of the hostel. Please note because I haven't read this anywhere before, it's a dry hostel and you obviously can't drink in the street in front either. There is just no atmosphere, so not great for socializing.
The rooms are quite big, the beds and the design is nice, some privacy with the wooden panel. Everything looks clean. Big kitchen. Some rooms are really messy it depends on the people you share the room with. Good location, really central if you want to go out in the valley.

ItalyYou can clearly hear the door the brings you to the room corridor EVERY time a person open and slam it, and there are of course a lot of person coming and going in a hostel. They need to put more drawers and hangers for clothes in the rooms, there’s nothing except for bed and a bench
Position is great and you can easily walk to any places in the city center.
