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.).

FinlandNothing negative
It was great that they were flexible with me arriving earlier and option to leave the car at the property as well as having the car there still on the day of the congress I visited when I checked out already in the morning. Nice that there was sauna turn and also option to buy a coffee in the common facilities when the restaurant was no longer open. Great location right next to the cross country skiing tracks. I will book here again when I am visiting Jyväskylä congress next time in winter.

GermanyBathroom was clean but the toilet doors broken (not easy able to lock). Shower and toilets have to been shared with the whole floor, but this is typical for Hostels - so no problem at all.
Nice rooms, possible use of an own refrigerator, 24 h checkin with code. Bathrooms are clean. Own sink in the rooms.

Lots of things to do in the immediate surroundings (but everything closes at 7 p.m. or earlier, except the disc golf). The room had a small fridge and a fan. The rooms and common areas were clean and tidy. Board games and table football. Sauna included in the price too (didn’t try it though as women’s session ended too early).

United KingdomMake absolutely sure, when you are sent the code number that you'll need to enter the hotel, that you write it down! I turned up, there was no-one in reception, at whch point I tried to get online to read my code. There was absolutely no internet reception outside the hotel (though once inside, it was fine). There were two phone numbers on the door to get help: I rang both and neither was picked up (this at about 4:30pm). What could I do? In the end I went to the nearby Scandic Hotel, and asked them if I could briefly use their internet (which they kindly said 'yes' to), pick up the email with the code number, and return to the hostel and get in.
The room was clean and comfortable.

Francein winter, when a lot of snow, the walking/ hiking/ biking paths are not at all indicated, the map given by the place is not very precise. You should ask for a room with the view on the ski station if you can, but still the view on the other side is not that bad
very clean and comfy rooms, easy access to sauna and to the kitchenette that we used every evening to cook our meal, access to a big smart TV (netflix available) and a sofa that we enjoyed to watch movies, direct access to the rental shop with fat bikes, ski, ... and proximity with the ski station is perfect! Nice trails in the forest to walk all day

FinlandThe cleanness of shared bathrooms was extremely poor! The second-floor bathroom was closed, and on the first floor, the bathroom was very dirty all around, and unused toilet papers were on the floor.
Fairly good price and a very good location with good bus connections to the city centre and JYU.

FinlandThe kitchen was a disappointment. There was just one portable stovetop, couple frying pans, but basically no utensils other than forks and knives, not even a cutting knife. Fridge only in the room. This hostel is really not well equipped for making your meals, rather for preparing readily bought microwave portions. The toilet seats were not regularly cleaned, and generally the bathrooms gave a bit of an untidy impression. Some other guests left the shower room completely soaked, I can hardly imagine how it was possible to get it so wet. I can recommend this hostel for a short stay. For my taste, the feeling in the room and the general atmosphere in the corridors was a bit too much facility-like, generic. The room itself was ok, with a sink and a fridge, though the fridge was making sound every now and then and resonated with the structure holding it, making a banging sound, which was unpleasant during the night, waking me up. I would say this hostel is for sports tourists or someone who needs a bed for a couple nights maximum.
A cheap room in an outdoor hostel, I recommend for a short stay. Very nice sauna included in the price. Good laundry facilities. Nice full body mirror in the room. Fridge in the room, though there could have been one in the kitchen too. Right next to various outdoor activities, adventure park, downhill skiing, jogging paths, hiking... the fireplace room was nice, though it would also have been nice to have had the option to actually use the fireplace.
