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.).

ItalyThe room was not clean, hair and body hair on the sheets and in the shower, the duvet was torn and the bed was uncomfortable… I’ve never slept so badly before. The bathroom fan never turned off and it was really noisy. The price was really high compared to the services that have been offered .
The position of the hostel and its staff were great.

United Kingdomthe shower was a catastrophe. the water was cold, it never got warm. note that I visited with the temperature in the city being below zero, the floor of the room is concrete which is cold, and then the shower has no warm water. I almost didn't shower in 3 days with fear of going sick from the cold shower. it was a shame that in order to keep myself warm during the stay I had to avoid hygiene. if the temperature is not bad enough, the shower has no head, it sprays in random directions. the toilet did have a distant bad smell, even though the surfaces were clean, a distant "toilet smell" was there. I don't want to be graphic, you can imagine what I mean. the breakfast was OK from the food point of view, but the coffee was undrinkable. it was a very watered down coffee-like drink with some strange big bubbles - the bubbles you expect to see when you use dish soap to wash dishes, not the bubbles of proper coffee. I was not able to drink it, so unfortunately I had to spend extra money to drink coffee elsewhere.
the building itself was great, new, bright inside. even the room had nice windows and was bright. as you would expect.

NetherlandsWe find quite annoying the fact that not towels weren't provided, not even with the option to rent one. Also quite sad that there was no hand soap provided in the room. Furthermore, we had to make up and clean our beds (which were not clean). For 85€ per night, someone would expect to be at least provided and in good condition.
The location of the hostel was really good. Within walking distance to all important attractions

AustriaDon't go that hotel, if you wanna able to sleep. They gave us the floor with 60 kids. They will wake up at 7 and start to scream and run on the corridor, play with the ball... same thing happens also during the day. Due to hostel it is ok. Because it was during the day time... Well for me not ok. I felt like there were 10 kids in my room. Got really headache and I was feeling so tired during the trip, that I couldn't enjoy. I booked a double room. One night per person 81 euro. Normally for that price beds are already ready for the guests. But not this time. They didn't even clean the bed. They are so many small hair all over the bed. I hated to clean it with the toilet paper. And beside that beds are really not comfortable. My back got worse. So I don't suggest. Not clean and no respect for the guests.
Location is pretty good.

PolandThe place is made out of concrete and it is extremely acoustic. You can hear every little movment – not to mention people comming back from a night out in Antwerp! Better have your earplugs with you! Because of the concrete the place is not cosy at all, it is even a little bit unfriendly. This does not bother in the common areas so much as in the rooms. Pillows and matraces are plastic (due to hygenic reasons but it is not nice, like in the hospital). The quilt had no pillowcase (only additional sheet was added to separate the quilt from the body but it moved all the time. There was no access to the kitchen or even hot water after breakfast.
Location is undoubtedly the best feature of this hostel. The personnel is friendly and helpful. The interior design is basic and minimalistic (which I like). Breakfast was also good, + for the fresh fruits but no fresh vegetables. Internet connection was ok.
