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 Arab EmiratesThe property that was assigned to me was a different than the one shown in the application. It was 2.6km away from the actually property. I paid for a double bed economy room but the property manager said he is giving me a favor if he is arranging a room for me separately and based on that he said I have to move to a different property which was away (2.6km distance)
The property arranged for us was clean and a separate room in 2BHK. It was a quiet place to relax.

United KingdomThe Wi-Fi is terrible - to the point of barely usable. I rely on this a lot as a photographer and it seems they are using entry level Wi-Fi. At some points a speed check showed it at less than 1MB a second and I think the whole hostel uses it so if someone is streaming something, expect not to be able to use it. The toilets were also not great. One tiny shower for men in the whole hostel. Also no sign of the breakfast promised in the welcome email
Two nice guys working at and running the hostel. Laid back guys who are friendly. The curtains around the beds offer some privacy and the lockers are of a good size too

United KingdomMale shower only has a curtain and is not the most private since it’s in between two toilets. Lift didn’t work to the hostel’s floor so had to walk up or down stairs.
Nice hostel, not too far from the main attractions of the city. We arrived quite late due to a delayed flight and the host attended to us and let us stay in his own apartment due to one of the beds not being free (guest overstayed) and the next day we had a whole room to ourselves with separate beds. Nice kitchen to meet and talk to other people. The balcony was also great.

AustraliaThe aircon didn’t work very well and in the middle of the heatwave we had some sleepless nights. It said breakfast was included but we didn’t see any. In the check in message it said to message if we had any questions, but they didn’t reply to any of our messages.
The owner greeted us at the door and was welcoming and friendly. They sent thorough check in details prior to our arrival.

PortugalMy friend and me stayed here for 3 nights, to start with the owner did not reply to our messages requesting to drop of our luggage earlier, when we arrived the place didn’t look exactly like the pictures and the host was a male that is very friendly with everyone but especially females. In the beginning it made us a little uncomfortable but afterwards he backed off a little. The main reason why you should be careful is that we discovered bed bugs and my friend was completely covered in little bites that itch like crazy.
The hostel is next to a bus stop which made it easier to get into the city and about a 10 minute walk from the metro which made it easier to get around as well. You can make use of the kitchen which is fully equipped and you can leave your things in the fridge if you want.

UkraineThere were stains and hair on the sheets and towels, the air conditioner was almost out of service, and the shower room was not comfortable and impractical (no place to leave your toiletries, fresh clothes, etc). Also, the host lives in the room he rents out - his stuff lies everywhere

AustraliaI didn't stay here, after waiting 2 hours outside (ringing the bell and calling the number) only to be let in by another man staying there and then to be told I couldn't be inside and ushered back outside by another man....everyone was confused, had no idea I had booked or had a bed. I felt uncomfortable and tired so I left. To be fair it looked clean from the 5 minutes I actually made it inside. Company sent me a message hoping I had a good stay upon check out even though I never checked in and sent a refund request. Seem super disorganised.

GermanyI announced my late arrival after midnight early enough so the staff would be prepared accordingly. Additionally I called them the morning before to make sure they would remember. Yet when I arrived, nobody was there to open. I storm called the WhatsApp number and got blocked! So I was lucky that there was a hotel nearby I could sleep at. The next day I checked in my bunk bed, laid 30 min on the bed and got bitten already 6 times by bed bugs. This hostel could not find me another free bed, so I left. I am still waiting for my full refund. It was hell and would never recommend this place!
The location is good.
