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.).

BrazilLocation and they charge 8 euros for use the Sheets, what doesn't make sense.. It's the same that a rental scooter charge you for the rent and charge you an extra fee for the tire.
Everything was great, specially the staff and facilities.

Really friendly staff go above and beyond, good sized lockers, comfortable beds, good kitchen and bathroom facilities, friendly atmosphere.

AustraliaHonestly there was nothing I didn’t like.
Melina was absolutely amazing! Upon arriving I was sent a list of things to do form restaurants to beaches, closest supermarkets and beaches! Even directions getting there - she was really warm and lovely. The hostel itself was so lovely everything you need, kitchen (fully equipped) w/ fresh produce and spices/seasoning provided, bathroom (towels & linen). Very comfortable beds and beautiful people. Couldn’t express my gratitude enough and how much I enjoyed it - just wish I could’ve stayed for longer.

SerbiaOk, there's a couple of things that I have to mention but they do not ruin the general impression. More like suggestions and what to improve. First, the small bathroom is practically useless. The toilet seat that faces the fixed side of bath cabin I couldn't use, and I doubt that someone who is higher than 1,6m could fit there normally. It's like one of those images you find on believe it or not pages. And please put the mirror in that bathroom, if someone wants to shave for example, to not have to wait for other one to be freed. Second is for those who plan the visit, be sure that the hostel is somewhat far from the city and the beaches, so expect a lit bit of walking each time you leave it. At first it didn't bothered me but after 5 or 6 days it started to catch up with me and it annoyed me a bit. That's it. Come to Tropea! You'll remember it for the rest of your life!
This was by far the most unique hostel experience I've ever had. The feeling right now after I left it is the most positive possible, despite the couple of things that I can find, let's say, not so great. First of all, it all seemed like you're there visiting a friend. All the people were so friendly, nice, welcoming... I'm not taking about the staff yet, I mean guests. I was lucky to have a roommate from a neighboring country so for me each time I was in the room was filled with conversation, which meant a lot since I was traveling alone. You can use the kitchen like in your own house, it has everything. They even brought fresh onions and tomato juice from the people that share the property. The bigger bathroom is superb, clean and spacious. It even has a washing machine. The rooms are ok, a bit small for 6 people but you get used to it. Nice thing that you installed the ropes for drying the clothes.The AC (when not set to blow directly to you at max speed) does a great job. And then comes the staff. Such a wonderful people, who made me speechless a couple of times with their care and thoughtfulness. Melina, thanks for everything. Your gestures meant a world, and what is more, you did all that without me asking for it. It all sure felt like home!
