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.).

AustraliaDue to the central location, it was very loud until around 4am which meant we didn’t sleep much (it was the weekend so the area was very busy).
Probably the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at! The rooms are laid out in a really good way giving you more privacy than normal in a shared room, kitchen is massive with great storage facilities, and the ensuite bathrooms are a good size with great pressure in the showers!

AustraliaBeing in true hostel style, if you want to store food or drinks, this is done in the large shared fridge's down stairs. Should this room of had a little bar fridge, it would have made the stay even better, as not having cold water easily accessible was the only real negative I can think of, otherwise great stay.
We arrived 3 hours early prior to our check in time, and were able to check into our room straight away with no issues. Excellent location, right in the heart of surfers paradise / walking distance to everything you need. Good value for money, we booked a private room for 2 people which had it's own bathroom and it was roughly $200 a night, should we have had 4 people (as the room has a double bed and a bunk bed with two singles) this is cheap as chips. Photo's don't do the room justice, very spacious and nice and tidy.

AustraliaOne of the staffs at the reception seemed new and took long time to process the check in. We staid there for two days but she made our card key accessible only for one day so we could not use our key on the second day and had to go back to the reception. The music from the swimming pool and other rooms could be very loud until the late night.
The size of the room was very good.

AustraliaIt would've been great if there was a USB charger next to the regular plugs and if the whole locker could locked rather than only the lockbox in the locker.

AustraliaWe went down to the Island Buffet breakfast Sunday morning and thought the service was good but the food needs work. I love it when the food is better then my own cooking. But the hot breakfast was cold. The bacon was burnt and like cardboard which ruined everything else and our appetite. For the price we really expected more. And their choice of juice selection needs work.
Really enjoyed our stay. Love the rooms. Love how fast the service was on checking in and out. Parking was a added bonus for us right next door. Location was central.

NetherlandsDON'T go to this hostel if you want to socialize! They send you away at 9pm in the kitchen and there is no where else you may sit with your friends and talk. Drinking alcohol seems like it's not allowed anywhere except you order it in their restaurant/bar. My bag got stolen in the kitchen and they did nothing about it. I think the staff threw it away, but it was labeled right. They didn't even look at the camera's when I asked for it. I love to cook so there was a lot in there. Around 60 dollars gone!! Thankyou BUNK.
It's clean and the bedrooms are good. Doesn't look like a hostel.

AustraliaStayed for 3 nights and the room was not cleaned even once. Common toilets were dirty and the hostel over all was pretty ordinary. If you are a solo traveller then this might not be a good option as there weren't any activities to engage with other travelers. The staff did not even tell about any planned activities or coupons which were available. Will not book this again!
Good location!
