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.).

GermanyWhile the beds were comfy, the 8-person dorms are reminiscent of sleeping in a coffin and difficult to navigate if you're not the spryest anymore. Next time I know to book a 4 bed dorm (as shown) to avoid that "early grave" feeling. Using the (extremely well-equipped) kitchen sadly required climbing or descending the stairs as it is on the mezzanine level which isn't served by the elevator.
Aesthetics, friendliness, breakfast, warm welcome, facilities. The lovely balcony outside the room, the lovely toilets and showers en suite. The working elevator. The non-smoking room. Although not terribly social, there was ample space for socializing. Others here who said the breakfast was lacking apparently forgot that they were staying in a Hostel. The breakfast had a wonderful variety of choices including such local treats as fresh spanakopita and other baked goods, delicious all.

A Home Away from Home – The Best Hostel Experience As a frequent visitor to this hostel, I can confidently say that it has become my go-to place, and each return feels like coming home to a familiar, welcoming haven. Here are the reasons why this hostel holds a special place in my heart. The location is unbeatable, situated right in the heart of the city. With easy walking access to numerous attractions and proximity to the metro station, it offers unparalleled convenience for exploration. The surrounding area is dotted with excellent restaurants and cafes, providing a diverse range of dining options. The highlight of this hostel is undoubtedly the roof terrace, offering a breathtaking view of the Acropolis. It's the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy the scenery, and soak in the city's charm. The overall maintenance and cleanliness of the hostel are commendable. From the common areas to the kitchen, everything is well-kept. The service is consistently good, creating a positive and welcoming atmosphere for guests. The Wi-Fi is reliable, and one of the standout features is the thoughtful inclusion of screens on the bunk beds, providing privacy for each guest. The hot shower experience is fantastic, thanks to robust water pressure, and the efficient hair dryer adds to the convenience. Personal lockers, accessible with a key card, are spacious enough to accommodate all belongings securely. This attention to detail enhances the sense of security and organization. The hostel's commitment to affordability is appreciated, especially in a city where hotels can be expensive. I sincerely hope that the rates remain reasonable, as it truly stands out as one of the best hostels available. In conclusion, this hostel has consistently exceeded my expectations, combining a prime location, cleanliness, excellent service, and thoughtful amenities. If you're looking for a home away from home with affordability in mind, look no further.

Location is perfect, 5 minutes walk to nearby metro station Monastiraki and 10 minute walk from square Syntagma. I rented a Single Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room with Balcony. Room was big, 2 wc and 2 showers, keep in mind that one of the wc's is at the same time a shower room. Lockers free to use and able to unlock with digital cards. Charge point near bed and outside balcony, also at the wall.

Fantastic hostel in the best location. Staff were very friendly, and overall really enjoyed my stay. Bathrooms in the shared dorm were also great, much nicer than I've ever experienced! Rooftop is really nice too, and Wi-Fi stretches up there so it was possible to work from there.

IndonesiaWish we had more lights in each bed. The area is surrounded by cafe/ club/ restaurants, so it's noisy at night. The selection of breakfast could be improved.
The staff are so friendly, they gave recommendation of places to eat and visit. Tried to have genuine conversations with guests, seems like they enjoy what they're doing. Keep it up! I like the location of the hostel. It's 10 min walk to the nearest Metro station. The place is surrounded by restaurants, cafe, clubs, it's so alive at night even in low season like November. Room and bathrooms are spacious. Housekeeping cleans up the room everyday (appreciate this!).
