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.).

NetherlandsMany facilities are broken. No lights above bed in female room. No curtains or jalousie !! Seriously? In front of many others windows. Absolutely uncomfortable to change clothes in darkness. Otherwise several guys smoking close to the window will observe nude woman. That is not normal. One shower for the whole floor instead two. There is only hot water in sink ?! Noisy during night time in reason bad sounds protections with next room.
Good location and friendly staff. There is bar in living room. As well breakfast provided by partners hotel is perfect.

I liked that the staff was quite cooperative and friendly. There was a bar on the ground floor which had books and games too which was nice. I could spend good time there and made some friends too.

AustraliaAnother friendly, helpful staff member needed more "training" in terms of knowledge about Brugges restaurants and sites, to be very helpful. This is a high standard I'm suggesting but I think it would be a small expense for management to invest in an information session for new staff who are not from Brugges.
While all staff were helpful, one of the staff members, a young local from Brugges, gave me exceptional assistance helping me prioritize what to see in Brugges.

New ZealandThe spiral staircase is old and creeks a bit, but this is not necessarily a negative & adds character to the place. The toilet and shower facilities could be improved.
Surprising great value for money. Helpful staff. Very clean facilities. Bed was comfortable. The room had a decent view of the village.

CanadaNothing against the building/establishment (as a whole) but do be aware that there are limited bathrooms/showers available per wing.
Great spot to be if you are keen to stay right in the heart of town/close to the train station. The beds are very comfortable, and the free coffee/tea is a huge plus!

United KingdomSomeone kept using all the loo roll in the spare toilet and not replacing it >:(
The staff are so friendly and engaging, they're helpful and seem to care a lot about making a good hostel environment. The beer tasting event was fun and educational and they encourage people to talk. With all the events and the great social area it's good for first time hostellers learning how to socialise that way and it is in an area that makes it so easy to see all the sights of Brugge. I loved it!

United KingdomOne downside I would say was the shower facilities, as on both times using the shower the pressure was very weak and water took a very long time to reach hot from cold. Other than that I have essentially no complaints, due to being an old building the staircase was fairly narrow with small steps but this was not a problem for me personally, and I was on the top floor.
Beautiful location right in the heart of Bruges, close to basically all main locations whilst also being very quite on the hostel street itself, location was a huge positive. The hostel itself was generally great and the daily activities were amazing (free waffle making & tasting upon my arrival was superb) and ran by the wonderful bartender! And all in all the room was generally good!
