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.).

GermanyThe bathrooms are cleaned once a day only and it is not enough. It may be useful to put floormats outside to avoid wet floors all the time.
A cosy student dorm that is converted into a vintage hostel during the study break. The location is convenient near the train station about a 10-minute walk and has many shopping options and museums nearby. Although the city center is far away, walking across Venice is a nice walk anyway. Otherwise, the ferry stations are also about 5-minute walk. We got the corner room with a view on the small canal. Overall the room and corridors were quite clean. The room also had a washbasin that was very convenient and was comfortably spacious for two people. The roof-top area is amazing and we enjoyed sitting there later in the night.

AustraliaGreat location. You can walk to the main attractions but its far enough away so that you can enjoy the less touristy and more relaxing areas of Venice. Also good value for the location and the staff were friendly and helpful.

RussiaThere is no air conditioning in the room, so it might be very hot in the summer period.
The location is really great - close to the railway station, Scuola San Rocco and St. Toma, with lots of eating places around. Within the building there are common rooms on the floor with historical furniture and great interiors, there is also the open roof. The place is quiet enough, the staff is truly nice.

PakistanThere are certain rules that are very inconvenient (when can you check-in/check-out and leave the hostel and come back). You have to be in the hostel by 12:30 am. So, if you want to spend some time outside in late at night, that's not an option.

United KingdomI liked nearly everything, it could have been less pricier ..
Good Location, well within the walking distance, both from the train/bus hubs and the main attractions - Rialto bridge and St. Mark's Square. But the best part was the super helpful front desk. They helped me like anything, to make me comfortable about the area in no time. Thank you ! Room was really good, and thanks for giving that fan, it saved from the heat :)

NetherlandsThe cushion of the bed wasn't very comfortable and under the beds the floor was a bit dirty. But those are details. For the rest there aren't any lockers for bags but you can leave them near the reception.
The staff was very friendly and the bathrooms were cleaned daily. Also a bonus that the terras is open 24 hours. A really great location very near the trainstation. Also good air conditioning.

United StatesThe building is old and very little renovations. The bathrooms and showers are quite bad and dirty. They work hard to keep rooms filled w/ either all men or all women. Buy mosquito spray because there is NO A/C and you must open window to breathe. I was eaten alive by mosquitoes and had over 100 bites. The choices for budget travelers are limited and this will work but not for more than 2-3 nights.
The location was good but not great. There was a nice terrace on the 4th floor & old elevator is very helpful. The staff were all super great and super social. The staff was the best part of this place. It's a big hostel so lots of people in and out.

United KingdomNothing.
The hostel is perfect in so many ways. It's not flashy or posh at all, but is just right. Our room was lovely, with old style twin beds a wash basin and a high ceiling. The room (no. 33) has views on two sides, over small canals. The atmosphere in the hostel is friendly and relaxed. Our shared bathroom was a few paces from our bedroom door. It was always available for showers and the water was warm and plentiful. The terrace on the fourth floor is great. It is a bit of a centre for smokers to gather, but there's a nice breeze up there and the views across the city are lovely. The cafe just outside the hostel's front door does a great cappuccino and croissant for very little money. My only disappointment is that the hostel only takes non-student guests (the general public) between mid-June and mid-September, as we'd love to come back in the spring. The area around the hostel is uncrowded and full of locals, and very pretty. And it's only a 5 minute walk from the railway station and main vaporetto stop at Ferrovia.

United StatesBathrooms were rather not so clean. Floors were mostly wet, and shower areas had hair as well. Shared bathrooms can be tricky, though Hostel can always put wipers to help clean up after the act.
It was near the station, so we could quickly put our luggage and walk the city. Rooms were pretty alright.
