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.).

CanadaThe second bathroom was a little weird and I couldn't see a light for it. Some outlets might not be close to your bed (mine was next to one).
I loved staying here! The bed was comfy. Price was good. And location was great; walking distance to everything I wanted to see. Hostel has good vibes in the common areas. There is a kitchen so you can cook and stuff. There is cold drinking water and air con in the rooms.

BulgariaI knew the hostel from my previous visits, I am happy to have returned here again. The volunteer running the place, Lutz, and the owner Sharom are very nice people, helpful and caring. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, the facilities were great - kitchen, WiFi, lockers, everything was OK. The hostel is a short distance away from Jonker Walk, there is a hawker center nearby, some nice Asam Pedas, Chinese and Indian restaurants nearby, awesome guests to make friends with, really nothing to complain about. Price for quality - great!

AustraliaThat I couldn't stay here a bit longer.
One of those 'home away from home' kinds of hostel situations. You will quickly see what it is that has given the hostel this vibe once you meet the long-time volunteer Lutz, and the owner Sharom. If you're feeling receptive and wanting it, this is the place to meet and talk with some instant-friends, and see the city like a local.

FranceThe only tiny little inconvenient is that the shower has low water pressure, but it's still very ok to wash your hair for example.
I spent a really nice stay at 3 Little Birds Home. It is very well situated, very close to the city center (5 min walk) in a very quiet and less touristy neighborhood. The helpers were very friendly as well. There are tea, coffee and oatflakes available, which is very convenient if you just stay a few nights and don't want to buy groceries. It is also possible to rent bikes for free. The aircond is working very well, and the beds are confortable.

MalaysiaActually, nothing much as long as the basic hygiene doesn't scare my eczema. Perhaps just suggesting slight improvements such as:- 1. To not make the double deck beds squeaky 2. To have more point plugs to ease everyone to charge the phones
1. The host, Mr. Sharom is super friendly. We had a lot of meaningful conversations throughout my stay. 2. The minimalist environment. 3. The unique accommodation of the dorms inside a house instead of at a shop lot.
