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.).

AustraliaBed wasnt so comfortable i wish they were better. Guess we were all not used to hard foam bed. Okay for short stay but not for long term as you can feel its not great :) The beddings though were still neat and clean. I asked for 2hrs late checkout as we were really struggling to packup but we were declined immediately bec it needs to cleaned considering new customers (checkout at 10am check in at 2pm) I wish we were at least given even 30mins which would have been appreciated.
Cleanliness,Location,Safe, Read Below.. Tidiness and cleanliness is superb. We stayed for 2 weeks and they literally cleaned everyday (emptying our bin was a must for us). They change bedsheet every 3days. We arrived at almost 1am and the owner gave very detailed instructions. The hostel smelllssss so good and the owner is very particular with tidiness. Although we had a private triple room, we were still able to use the common area both 10 and 11th floor. On nights were we opted not to dine out, we just bought food at 7/11 downstairs and have it in the quiet shared lounge. It had a great view and were complete of kitchen applicances/utensils. As we stayed on a long term, the owner allowed us to use the laundry (free)and dryer (5k won) which was really helpful for us as we did not want to bring back a luggage just full of dirty clothes and we were able to reuse some of our already worn clothes in the first few days. All doors to each floor has digital locks so very safe. Although the room was a bit small for us to move around since we had at least 3 large suitcasws and 2 medium ones, the room size was considerable. Location was perfect. The area is where long alley of restaurants in Seoul open late so u will never ho hungry for a proper sit down food at 12mn. Closest station is only 2 stops from Seoul Station. Around 10-15mins walk to myeongdong. Also close to so many bus stops. Next to Cheonggyecheon stream- its 11km long and is great for a lovely afternoon or evening walks.

United StatesCity of Seoul is huge. This was a great location, it felt very center to everything but also very calm. Room was really clean, I really liked how they came in to clean the room daily and provided clean towels and water bottles daily. The room itself was pretty small, but if you are looking for a place to literally just sleep in, this was a nice hostel. The building also made you feel very safe

IndonesiaThe size of the bed is a little small for me, it's a little hard to turn around without hitting the bed-saver iron pole, besides I get the upper bed which is a little hard for me to climb up. Besides those two, this hostel is very nice.
Clean and Silent. Many Resto around hostel. Wifi fast, and very big lounge also have microwave and refill water. The owner of Haru so kind that helped me to order taxi.

United Arab EmiratesAll good. No breakfast
The hostel is operated by e-mail/code passes so you won’t see any staff. The hostel operates efficiently though. Rooms are clean, beds comfy and towels are provided. Showers are clean and hot, toiletries are nice. The hostel is Located close to the 7/11 by the stream. The hostel is well located for Jonggak Subway 2mins walk away. Main tourist sights are close by foot - palaces, stream and Avenue of Youth. I would definitely stay here again if I ever return to Seoul.

NetherlandsThe place was super quiet, which I liked but the last 2 nights I was alone in the 8 bed room. The privacy was nice but sometimes I would have liked some roommates to talk to. There is also very little staff there, I only saw the cleaners. It was no problem for me though.
The place is super modern and super clean. There is a quiet atmosphere. It's on the 10th floor so little to no outside noise. Self check-in with the door codes works well. The neigborhood is cool, downstairs is the 7 11, and in the neighboring streets there is lots of food places and also bars. Also walking distance from the Myeongdong shopping district. The metro is closeby.

AustraliaLove this accommodation. I have stayed here twice now, and both times have been great. The rooms are spacious for 2 people the beds are comfortable. The views from the rooms are stunning. Great location, a few minutes walk to the closest bus or train station. Common area has hot water, a toaster, and an area you can sit and enjoy the area. There is a convenience store on the ground floor and lots of great restaurants to eat at.

Rooms are on the small side but cozy all the same, room was very clean and cleaners were very good and efficient and cleaned our room every day to a high standard . Kettle, tea and fridge is really useful in the room. There is a nice shared space where you can make basic food and drinks. Hostel was very quick to reply on messenger and helpful. They also let us check in early one day which was great. Make sure you read the messages before you arrive as alot of passcodes for different doors. Overall a very good stay and we stayed twice during our trip 😊

DenmarkThe noise from the bathroom was very loud. From the doors, the ventilation, the hairdryer… to general noise, maybe a little “sound work” would help.
Central location,even though the address guidance showed the wrong “entrance/side of the building”. The bed was nice, with a small flatscreen, however I didn’t use it. The lockers didn’t work, but it felt safe. There came a guide and claimed he was picking up a tourist, and then he wanted to use the bathroom. I of course declined, as it was a room for women… a bit odd and also scary, that you have to think about who you are letting in the door.

The facilities are gorgeous and everything is digital; the room is clean and organized, feel a bit small with all 4 beds occupied but not too crowded. The little lounge area on my floor is exactly as pictured and it was great at night to sit there and read
