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.).

New ZealandSomewhat out of main town centre....located in suburban area...but easy access to seafront for restaurants and mini-market. On arrival reception area seemed dark with Bob Marley theme...but upstairs the bedrooms were light and spacious with comfortable beds and good linens. Pleasant garden and helpful staff.

United Arab EmiratesThe vibe! I was so attracted by the garden decor, who gathered up also the guests staying in the hostel so you could easily meet new people :) The check in, carried by Rik, was one of the best I ever had! It may just be a “check-in” but that first impression lasts forever! Super friendly and welcoming from right away. Rooms were big and equipped with 3 toilets.

FranceNot many cons. The only thing when I was there was that I and multiple people had our food thrown out (tomatoes, peaches, etc.) on fridge cleaning day, even though it was labeled. So probably best to develop a better system for food/fridge clean-out.
Comfortable, plenty of space to chill by yourself or if you want to chat to folks. Everything is pretty organized.Resident cats are cute. Near town, buses, markets.

If you ever come to Chania you should definitely come to this hostel. Rick and Costa are extremely welcoming and make you feel at home. The garden is wonderful and perfect for socializing. The location is a bit further from the city center but in walking range. You are close to the beach and the bus stop is right next to the hostel.

The owners and staff exceptional! They gave great recommendations regarding any requests...be sure to ask about the local take away restaurant for affordable authentic Greek food! The back patio area really nice & kitchen quite functional. Hostel is very close to port & old town. I'm sure more improvements will be made as new owners that qenuinely care!

It’s located 15 minutes walking distance from the downtown, and Chania marine and promenade. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. The hostel is cute, and has a beautiful backyard garden. The wi-fi was good. Staff and owner were really helpful and friendly.
