How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The rooms felt like they were redone to hostel from a normal double room (I guess that's what probably happened). Even when all was OK in my case, the room felt weirdly small for four people, mainly because there was only one shower connected with toilet.
Everything super clean, stuff very friendly, nice bar open till late for those who do not want to go to sleep early :)

Lockers in the dorms were a bit small, but Ok. A bigger bar would be more appropriate form my taste.
The facility was clean, new and well run. Dorm room was kept clean. Good price for all this.

Cafe expensive, cappuccino very small cup for 3.80 Breakfast was good, except white bread rolls were not tasty. Room was a bit hot so used air-conditioning which was noisy. , so had to turn it off.
Great to have a shared kitchen to make tea, coffee and cook. Even a fridge to keep food. Hotel very near sports college Breakfast good selection Air-conditioned large triple room. Great bathroom and comfy beds.

I was trying to buy another stay and breakfast, but the night staff made me not feeling good, little aggressive, unfriendly and they threw what I cooked into the trash bin. Next morning I ordered coffee and some bread, the bar guy he said the bread are free for customers that waiting. He charged me a big amount, more than the coffee costs and served me a tiny cup to show the woman next table how little I ordered but we both knowing us already from the dorm and we both on move and not on looking clothes, I told her I just recovered from a cold and can't, she felt unsafe from the guy in the dorm that were playing safer and were following her, I reported that but the night staff did no actions so I had to take care and became so done!
Elevator, lights, check-in was doing a good job, very professional stereo executive check-in!

A bit weird sleeping in a single bed in a dorm room. Location is in industrial area, not walking distance to town but close enough to train station.
Rooms were clean and comfortable. Good that there was separate bathroom and toilet in dorm room. Kitchen was good and staff friendly.

Many school classes and youth groups not behaving inappropriately for a city hotel. A desk in the room would be helpful to get some work done.
Simple hostel like hotel with extremely cool and friendly staff, especially at the bar. I was attending an event in RheinEnergie Stadion which is not far.

Location is not that great. Its around 10-15 min walk from the metro station. Although we booked a twin room, the bed were put together just next to each other so it was essentially a king sized bed.
New and stylish place. Everything you need in a room was there, except a small fridge, that would be nice. Staff is really friendly and informative. Everything was spotlessly clean.
