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.).

FranceThe guy who received me the day I arrived was nice but did nor really speak italian or english so it was hard to communicate, I did not understand half of what he told me to be honnest The real problem is the bathroom, since the shower door is transparent and you can't lock the main door.. So anyone can enter while you shower
Good location, not far from the train station

ItalyI would have liked to have a common area to spend some time there but overall it was a nice stay!
The hostel is good for one night. I had to take an early train the day after so the location worked well for me. However, I wouldn't go out at night alone as the area doesn't seem super safe. The hostel is very basic but it had all I needed and it was clean.

MexicoThey don’t have a kitchen for cooking, the shower space is small and the door doesn’t cover yo body at all, the WC area is also too small, in the bedroom, the top bunk doesn’t have nothing in case you roll on bed and fall. The facilities are at least enough

AustriaWhat I didn‘t like is that I was missing the attential to details. Obviously its a simple place and you do the best you can. You can‘t easily build a new place, fix the pipes etc. But I have some ideas that would greatly enhance my stay and also doesn‘t cost you much. 1 Please get an extra light in all the rooms. A small, dim light that you can turn on in the evening, or at night. It‘s not cool to have to turn on the super big bright light while everybody is trying to sleep. Cost you 10 bucks at a flea market and would make a huge difference to everybodys experience 2 The door to the bathroom. This take a little bit more effort to fix but it would greatly enhance this place. When you arrive and have to forcefully push the door the the mens bathroom it just doesn‘t give a good impression and is also just annoying because you have to use it multiple times a day. 3 The bathroom pipes. Not sure if this is easily fixed but the bathroom pipes stink. Probably comes out of the shower. I would at least try to clean it and try to clean the pipes with a plunger or try to get a a plumber to have a look.
Rias is a super cool and friendly guy, thank you so much. Also it was great to securely store my bike

SerbiaMain issue is that their machine for card payment doesn't work and they didn't inform me about this before i arrived or even on their booking page.. For example : we do not accept card payments. I would not book it if i knew that. Or i could bring cash. They told me in person i need to pay in cash. I thought that i did payment online. Next thing i go to near ATM to and pay 70 euros ATM commission witch was almost 1/4 of my payment to stay there. I ended paying more than calculated. Rooms in the picture were decorated just for pictures. Once you get in, it is not the same. My mattress staid in the same shape of my body for my stay there.
Location was good, not far from main train station Termini and metro stations. Owners were polite.

NetherlandsThe infrastructure is not convenient enough, e.g. the hot water cannot be provided timely, you have to wait sometime after one used it. In addition, a 10-minute walk is needed to the metro station.

LithuaniaThe hostel doesn’t match the photos on booking! There are no carpets, no chilly zones and you need to leave the hostel from 10 am till 2 pm because of the cleaning. There were just 5 beds in my room and a fridge which was too cold for the products. If I knew I would book a cheaper hostel which looks almost like this one in fact.
I liked the stuff and clean bathrooms.

Ukraine1) The room was for 6 people, people stayed all night. One of the residents had a cold and was coughing all night, I’m worried about my health. It is a pity that the staff does not monitor the condition of the residents and does not worry about the health of others, allowing sick people to stay in a room with 5 other guests 2) There was no kitchen as such

ItalyMaybe the only drawback is that you can't be there from 10am to 2pm because of the cleaning service. Plus, you can't leave your luggage if you arrive earlier than the check-in or leave later than the check-out. Of course, air conditioning would be a HUGE addition -- fans are never enough in a city that reaches 40°C.
This hostel is just good for spending the night with a roof on top and having a shower you can use. It's nothing more and nothing else.
