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 KingdomIt was really cold as the heating wasn’t working. Well done to the hostel for providing small portable radiators but they didn’t really make much difference. Luckily I had my thermals as I was working somewhere I knew would be cold.
I liked theTV availability as I could watch Strictly 😂. Kitchen was well equipped. Staff were great.

United KingdomCouple of things affected our sleep: Green glow from ceiling light was a bit bright People talking outside The only thing that was slightly disappointing was that although we were told the kitchen would be busy because of a large group we were told we'd be able to order food if it was before 7pm, but when we tried to order at 6.15pm we were told they wouldn't take our order so we had to walk back to the pub we'd just left for food

United KingdomI’m not travelling often. Needed something in a budget. I’m not a fan of 1meter by 1 meter shower cubic which make me claustrophobic and hard to help your child with showering. It was strange smell in the whole corridors/bedrooms area. Can’t tell what was it but definitely unpleasant.
Very unusual building. Good price. Cleanliness. Kind staff. Good breakfast.

United KingdomPoor cooling, very small single window, which didn't let enough air through as it was very hot, was unable to keep the window open overnight as midges came in as there was no covering, resulting in a very hot and humid room.
Lovely atmosphere and a river nearby, allowing walking and good access. Wifi available to make up for lack of signal, but the wifi is very slow so expect to be answering emails, not watching videos.

United KingdomOnly reason I reduced the facilities score was that the heating on first night was unbelievably hot and sleep was difficult . This was a problem for many guests . staff explained their issues with the boiler system , offered fans and thankfully turned it off for rest of our stay. I hope the heating system can be upgraded as it seems such a hassle for staff to cope with , waste of money for the hostel and not great for environment . Wifi didn't work on my phone consistently but luckily it was OK for my niece so she was able to sort it.
I love the hostel and staff were so helpful and friendly .I will definitely come back . The location is just so peaceful and interesting. I really enjoy staying in amongst history and nature
