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.).

GermanyThe USB-Charging at the bed did not work, I also check with an USB lamp. Plug, adapter and my own charger worked. (I always expect problems like that, so I was prepared.). The floor board/planks should be screwed at next renovation/when carpet is lifted, each step makes a bit of noise.
All fine, I will go there again: a window which can be opened, breakfast included, garden with table, loundy, showers are fine. Bed and sheet was clean but I like to have my additional 40x40cm own pillow.

Netherlands1. We would have liked to know that our room was up 4 staircases 2. the view from the kitchen on the patio could be improved by cleaning and getting rid of plastic garbage bags, this also applies to the view outside, it gives the hostel a shabby look 3. no knob aside the basin in the room to hang towels 4. no knobs to open the drawers of the cupboard 4. the USB connections in the sockets above the bed did not work
nice people, nice room, kitchen that is well equipped, near Tube station,

PortugalI don't blame the hostel for this, but some of the fellow roommates were not so tidy nor clean. The majority respects each other, but one is enough to make a bathroom a bit dirtier or the room a bit messier.
Very friendly staff, nice to have a breakfast included (simple, but you can always have some groceries to pimp it up) and overall good organisation. One of the best locations posible. Bed was OK, being a impermeable mat and pillow gives me the confort of higiene

United KingdomI didn't like the memory foam pillow, but I'm a front sleeper, and it was a bit too hard for me. I think for a back sleeper it will be ok. Also as the bathroom is en-suite, there is a queue of 5 other people in the morning.
I stayed in a 6-bed room with an en-suite bathroom. The room was big, bright, warm, clean and airy. Power sockets and lockers with free safe in the room for every person. Included breakfast consisted of tea-coffee, toast, butter, jam and fruits, but the kitchen has any appliances to cook what you want.

FinlandKitchen is a bit small so when everyone of course happens to eat breakfast at the same time, it can get tight. The pillow wasn't really to my taste, too hard.
Excellent location near Kensington and the tube. Not too big so not too much noise which was nice. Good bathroom.

South KoreaSqueaky wooden floor in the dorm was a big headache when you check-in late at night after a long journey and had to move around a bit to unpack and freshen up before getting to sleep.
The staff was super friendly and helpful, late check-in was easy and straightforward. The kitchen was spacious and well-provided. Location has a big merit with easy access to/from Heathrow and central London by Tube, there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby as well.

RomaniaThe bed was small and not the best as the matters was wrapped in some sort of plastic that that made it uncomfortable while sleeping. While putting the bed sheets on, I found hair and napkins from the person who slept there before me. Also a bottle of water almost empty was at the head of the bed. I would have appreciate a bit more care when doing the cleaning.
The location was very nice, close to the metro and accessible. The shared kitchen was big enough to fit more persons in. The staff was very kind.
