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 ZealandI don't know if they lock the front door or not, I made sure to be back before 10 pm, but every time I tried it would open without a key. I wasn't given a key. Staff weren't really around, I think I got lucky that somebody was cleaning when I arrived.

FranceThe kitchen was tiny. There was no living room. The bathroom wasn't in perfect condition. If you want to work or have some me time, its impossible. There is not really any place to eat either.
The guy that runs the hostel is exceptionally nice. The price is good for Croatia and if you are someone who spends all day out and only come to hostel at night its perfect for you.

United KingdomNot a surprise having read reviews, but yes, the dorm room is in the basement. I arrived after 11pm and the room was dark. I left at 9am then came back for my bags at 11am, and never saw it properly lit as someone was always sleeping. No social spaces or even anywhere to sit if you don't want to sit not on your bed in the dark - if you want to meet people when you travel, this is not the hostel for you. The kitchen is very small and it's unclear what is available for use (fridge, laundry machine etc have 'staff use only' labels on them) Los of personal items left around in the dorm and bathroom - maybe some guests were long-termers? But it felt like waking into the home of someone who likes clutter. The bathroom door does not have a lock on it. Thes owner/mamager was present when I arrived and could obviously see me outside via the security camera, logging in to the wifi etc to be able to gain access to the hostel, but didn't open the door or anything, he was just sat in there waiting for me to open it and although he was probably checking Its got the hang of it it just felt awkward. He offered me an 'upgrade' to the private double room and when I didn't want it (partly due to negative reviews of it, mostly to avoid moving beds of I chose to stay an extra night) he was a bit weird about it but maybe he just didn't understand. When I came back to get my things and move to a different (better) hostel, he was there and was clearly annoyed and/or hurt about it as he was really off with me as I left. It made me more confident about my decision to go elsewhere.
Mattress was comfortable. Bedding & towel provided were clean Power socket near each bunk. Lockers provided (with keys) and they work. Late check-in possible as lock is operated through an app, & check-in is automated. Mamager (owner?) very responsive via WhatsApp prior to arrival.

AustraliaThis property just wasn’t for me. The staff that I encountered seemed to care very little for their guests. I accidentally forgot to book 2 night, coming home to find bag outside the room whiteout so much as a message. The host didn’t care to help or assist and honestly preferred to just let a woman be alone of the street in a foreign country than make any think of effort to help me find somewhere to stay. Not ever offering refuge in the hostel until I had found something else
.I was liveable just life most, but lacked a soul and a place to washed our clothes.

GreeceI didn't like the fact that the dormitory was in the basement. No windows. Nevertheless it was spacious and the atmosphere was nice. It was located a bit away from the city center. Also the automatic doorlock was kind of tricky, either to enter or to exit. In general it was good value for money.
Fairly clean and comfortable, friendly staff. It seemed recently renovated, the atmosphere was fresh.

CroatiaOverall the hostel was not very clean. There is no sound seperation between the room and the upstairs. If you are trying to sleep and someone upstairs is socialising (which is fine) you will need ear plugs to block to noise. This was a last minute book for me I chose it based on the location and the price (that was a mistake). I think this is an ok place as a last minute find and if you want to stay for a night. If you are staying for any longer period of time do yourself a favour and look at other options. I have travelled lots and stayed in many different accommodations and this is one of the most displeasing experiences.
Fairly close to the city centre, you can easily walk to the hostel from the old city. The check in host was nice.

Australiathis is a self service hostel so it is pretty in personal. You have to download an app to open and close the door and this was a bit annoying and takes away a bit of the hostel magic. There is only 1 shower and toilet for the 2 floors and they are in the same space. Thankfully I only had to wait a short period of time, once in the 3 days I was there. The location is a bit distant from the main ferry port and old town. I felt a little scarred walking home by myself in the dark as I am travelling alone BUT it is close to the beach area which is also nice.
the beds were comfortable and the facilities were clean and tidy and the cleaning lady was so nice and kind to us.
