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.).

GermanyThe common are was quite small and since showers and toilets were always combined in the bathrooms, some hours of the day happened to be very busy.
The rooms were spacious and the deluxe pods were super nice! Friendly staff, nice location close to darling harbour and the city centre was also walkable. The included meals were actually super good, especially the vegetarian options! We would definitely recommend to stay at this place.

France- Locker to enter in the dorms emits loud digital sounds, not necessary and just disturbing at night - Blankets are so small and unconfortable. I like to cover myself completely to sleep but it wasn’t possible - Dinner ends early for european people who used to eat late.
Very good worth value for the localisation, comfort and services. Meals are okay, rooms and common areas are clean.

PortugalThe only things I can point out are the fact the upper beds being hard to reach for short people and the absence of a common area other than the dinning room. The hostel would benefit from transforming one of the rooms into a living room, specially since the ratio people/bathrooms would also benefit from it.
The beds are very wide and comfortable, they are closed so it gets you a lot of privacy. The hostel was always spotless and the dinner and breakfast are huge assets to a very well located hostel! You have access to unlimitid towels and the bathrooms have shampoo, conditioner and bath soap.

AustraliaThere are only 9 toilets So I often have to go to other floors to find one of the empty bathrooms. During rush hour, you can see one person waiting in line for the bathroom. There is a hair dryer on each floor that can be used outside the bathroom --------- There is no red warning sign outside the bathroom door that indicates someone is in use or a green sign that no one is in use. So every time I have to pull down the handle to know if the door is locked or if someone is using it. There is no elevator, so you have to climb stairs to carry your luggage. 浴室門外沒有那種顯示有人正在使用的紅色警示或是綠色無人使用 所以每次都要拉下手把才知道有沒有鎖門,有人正在使用 沒有電梯 ,要爬樓梯搬行李
The breakfast is full of waffles, milk, orange juice, toast, jam, eggs, fruit, and coffee. Tea Dinner is also sumptuous, including salad, rice, chicken, and pork. However, the restriction is that only one person can eat one portion, and the second portion cannot be eaten until after 20:00 unless there is something left. The bed in the room is huge. Every day I see employees vacuuming and cleaning the bathroom. It's clean. There are no spider webs or bugs in the room and bathroom. Cleaned every day Each bed is provided with 2 plugs, a night light and a small fan So you can charge your phone There are only 9 toilets So I often have to go to other floors to find one of the empty bathrooms. During rush hour, you can see one person waiting in line for the bathroom. There is a hair dryer on each floor that can be used outside the bathroom The quilt is very thin and it gets cold at night. I have to go to the counter to ask for more sheets. On the quilts and sheets, you can see long hairs that were used by previous people. The distance between the top of the bed is not too short, and you can sit down on the bed and use your laptop. Each bed has a curtain so it's considered privacy. But I can hear other people entering and leaving the room, climbing on the bed and walking, and the sound vibrates.

PhilippinesLess toilets/bathrooms. Because it was in the main road, you can hear the partying noise outside. These two not a big nuisances to me. The thing that annoyed me the most were the frenchies in the same room with me who don’t respect the other people and keep talking even in the silent hours.
Location is in the main cbd. Close to everything. Staff friendly.

Australia- They don't have female only dormitory. - Some one disabled the room security in one night, and everyone can come in the room without entering password!! I finally figured it out and brought password back. I think it would be good if the receptionist can tell the visitors please don't turn off the security over the door.
- The hostel provided great breakfast and dinner!! They are not fast food or prepared food. The food is cooked by some skilled chef/staff. The food tasted very delicious. - There would be password controlled for each room and at the main gate which provides a lot of security.
