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.).

AustraliaNot a downside for me, but bear in mind they are right in the heart of the city. You might hear noises from the bars/streets/
Perfect location, in the heart of the city. The main attraction Crocosaurus Cove is literally across the street. At least 4 great bars/pubs around the place, with amazing food, drinks and music. 10min walk to the waterfront (or just take a scooter). Very helpful staff, loved all of them. They are there to help, no matter what. They even got us the room before the check in time which was an amazing plus. I definetely would stay again.

AustraliaI didn't like that it wasn't so clean. Bathrooms weren't clean. Showers were not clean at any time of the day, but toilets did get clean in the morning. Also, because of the location (bars all around the hostel) there is a lot of noise, so it is hard to fall asleep. Also, the aircon in the room was very weak, so my room was really hot.
it served its purpose of providing me with a place to stay for two nights that was central to every location I wanted to go to.

AustraliaThe aircon was somewhat limited - it was on and better than the heat outside, but I'd call it more of a fan. Cleanliness was also lacking (the pool had pasta in it for a few days), and my food got stolen out of the fridge because there was no space to store it. Was a little sad that the common areas closed at 10pm, so had nowhere to hang (quietly) with friends before bed.
Fantastic place to meet people - lots of nightly events, but staff were also very respectful of those trying to sleep. Very much a party hostel, but the party was moved off-site at 10pm every night to help guests sleep. You get what you pay for in terms of value for money, but as far as hostels go this was pretty good! A quick tip I wish I had known - this place huge on Sunday parties, and everyone from other hostels join in too! Wish I hadn't planned on that being my early night.

The style of the hostel and the facilites. The pool is amazing. It is a party hostel just FYI so they are always doing activities and drinking games if you are on this mood if not choose another place :) Really good beer and drink prices.

China- One of the two faucets in the shared toilet was out of service on the males’ floor so dudes had to wait in line. - loud air con could be disturbing (especially when it is right beside your bunk)
- Great location. Located in city center, close to different bars, Coles and beach view. (HOWEVER, it could also means loud pub music after 11). Would suggest bring your own ear plugs. - Room/balcony/kitchen/other facilities were generally clean. - Reception girls are nice and helpful
