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 cost 40 euros extra (20 each way) to get a ride from the airport to the Hostel. The return journey was on the back of a motorbike! The 5 euro breakfast was two undercooked fried eggs and processed white bread. Felt a bit hustled.
Good value - clean and comfortable room. Manager came to the airport at midnight to pick me up.

ItalyGeorge Is an amazing host. The place itself might not (about the outdoor) be like a 5 stars hotel, but this Is a hostel after all. Our room, for 4 people, was in my opinion a little small if It really had to be with someone you didn't know, but for two people (or a family of 4) has been great. The little balcony is a big plus (every room has It), the bathroom (in common) was very clean. Kitchen Is available as long as a little breakfast with a little additional cost, if requested. George even offered (with a little payment) to grab us at the Airport. Position Is a little far away from city center, but It's close to the Airport. Eventually, good stay, we would definetely advice for It! Thank you again George :)

PolandThe neighbourhood was not the cleanest.
The staff was really helpful. They did their best to make our stay exceptional. They helped us with everything we needed. There was no problem with getting an additional bed for one more person in the room. The staff helped us order food and what was the most amazing - they offered a quick and affordable transfer from the airport and later to the city centre of Heraklion.

New ZealandCould do with a good clean! It is rather isolated which means if you are in the shops area having dinner you have to time it so you avoid walking the dark roads alone at night (I was solo). I would recommend to George to put a lock on the door on the downstairs rooms as they are so easily accessible next to kitchen/couch area and there is nowhere to lock anything away in the room. My stuff was fine but I would be much more comfortable able to lock the door.
Cool laid back vibe with friendly people. George the host is very cool and nice to talk to. He told me places to go to eat and his son picked me up from the port for €18. Although it fair walk away the local beach and town area is really nice. Close to main city Heraklion and airport/port but still enough away that you dont feel urban. Beds were comfy and fan was provided (no air con). Best shower pressure in a hostel! If you are going into city get bus 12 or 7 and then only get 7 on the way home. Locals or guests (not sure) sit out under the trees at night and it’s a nice vibe. Definitely a lot more males to female ratio but I didn’t feel uncomfortable.
