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.).

United StatesI arrived late in the evening, and all the bottom bunks were taken. It was a challenge to climb up to the top bunk, when I was very tired & also, I had hurt my knee earlier in the day.
Breakfast in the communal room was delicious and friendly; I sat there for an hour, finishing my work, because it was so pleasant!

United KingdomAs we stayed there for rolling loud Rotterdam it was a really convenient location being 4 stops away from Rotterdam ahoy on the metro. The rooms were really clean and comfortable. My main issue going into this was security but you can lock your stuff away. Amazing place and friendly staff.

United KingdomRoad noise and noisy party all along our corridor. They were excited and it wasn’t the hostel’s fault, but the door banging etc was the only real downside
LOVELY staff, v kind and welcoming. Our room was spacious and had lots of character. Nice to have water, towels and a kettle. The kitchen facilities were really good too. Bathrooms fine and clean. We had a very nice breakfast: plentiful and inexpensive (5€ pp). The hostel staff were very helpful with luggage storage. It was noisy though (traffic late & early and a group of boys all along our corridor) but I guess noise is usually a factor at hostels and there were free earplugs 😊). We had a great time and a comfortable night. Would def stay again

NetherlandsBreakfast on day 1 was great! Breakfast on day 2 was not great. The butter and jam on the tables were left out in the heat overnight and tasted spoiled. I also didn't like that I had to pay 2 Euros for a towel. It feels very petty and unhygienic to deny people towels without extra payment. I also felt that there was a lot of noise in the shared dorms. Even though people were quiet in the room, it didn't always feel secure. I really would have liked more privacy. I will get my own room next time. It is sad that there are not other affordable hotel rooms around the city.
The accommodation was inexpensive compared to other options available in Rotterdam. It was centrally located and close to tram lines and near the river.
