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.).

United StatesBreakfast could have been better but like...that's ok. It was free. It was just coffee, juice, and some pre packaged muffins.
Location was great. The staff was SO nice. The SHOWERS THOUGH. The showers have a separate change area that has a heater. This was place was amazing. The beds were super cozy, had separate lamps per bed, the people staying in my room were really respectful of sound and light. Overall so stoked I stayed here.

United KingdomMaybe a little bit more choice at breakfast would be good. Otherwise all great :)
Very nice place. The woman who checked me in gave kind and great customer service sorting me a bottom bunk and giving me the best available room. It's a new, cute hostel - and located right by the lovely river on the edge of the old city. Cuenca is awesome, this is a great place to stay. Gracias por todos..

SpainThe bunks are a bit noisy - could hear every time someone was rolling to the side in their beds, which can be annoying.
Rooms have a good size and the spaces were very clean. Having breakfast included was definitely a plus. Staff is very nice and helpful - when we arrived people were using all the beds in the room and staff quickly helped us.

SpainThe design of the room and the premises was outstanding and beautiful. As it's a hostel, I don't know how it gets in summer, but as we were the only guests, we got to experience silence, nice breakfast, beautiful indoor living/chill space and, of course, such unique room itself.

United StatesNo big issues! The host didn't speak much English, as promised, but I was able to communicate well enough with my limited Spanish. The early deadline for checking in, 8pm, is something to take note of, as it made choosing a mode of transportation more difficult.
The place was perfect! The hostel is located in a beautiful spot with a view out to the river, with easy access to both the modern and medieval parts of the city. The hostel is quaint and rubber-duck-themed, which was very cute! There were lock-boxes under the beds (locks not included) that I utilized to store my stuff while going out on walks. A keypad at the door made it easy to enter and exit at will. There are individual locking stalls for both showers and toilets. Rooms have 6 beds with individual outlets and shelves for charging electronics. Best hostel I've stayed in!

SpainThe bathroom is shared by two or more rooms, so... if you get noisy in there, and there is someone in the next bath, he or she will hear everything. I think that the owners have done their best to isolate them but it is a architecture problem. Neutral Commit: - price around 20s (it can change) - room of 4 (not unisex)
Modern ilumination, bathrooms and decorations. The room was warm and the views to the river were pretty nice. Free Breakfasts Thanks to Dani for your welcome to Cuenca :)
