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.).

NorwayThe hostel shares entrance, reception, staff etc with a cafe (same owners, so the staff works at the cafe and the hostel). There is no common area at the hostel, but you can sit in the cafe. It does feel a bit weird using the cafe when you are not a cafe-guest and need a place to be (other than the room), like eating your own food, facetiming etc.
The room and beds are very good. Plugs and curtain in the bed, so you get a lot of privacy. Very clean room and bathroom. Free water. Good wi-fi. Locker to storage your belongings. Good location, 1 min to supermarket, 10 sek to resturants, 3 min to beach.

BelgiumLovely stay! I think we were lucky we stayed in the weekend because when we checked out there were constructions next door, making a lot of noise as of 9am it was fine because we always get up early, but for the breakfast it’s pretty loud. The breakfast is really nice tho - great egg sandwich with some fruit and a lemon juice 🍋

ThailandIt was a small dorm room. The toilet was extremely loud after flushing and with the toilet/shower being located so close to the beds it was quite disturbing. Basically you could hear everything from outside, those walls were paper thin and located by one of the main roads it was stressful sleeping there. Got woken up at 5. Staff didn’t really speak English besides one person, and the hangout area is their cafe. I was missing somewhere to chill tbh.
The beds were clean and comfy. Best hot shower I’ve had in 3 weeks(actually a stable water pressure)

AustraliaThe hostel is nice and staff were friendly and helpful. The location is amazing, not too far from the beach where you can snorkel to see the sardines. There was hot water in the shower and the bathroom was well maintained and clean. I enjoyed the food at the hostel and was happy with the service. I would recommend this hostel.

SpainThere’s no lockers in the room and poor communication from the staff. The hostel was closing and we had to move our staff quickly, I was told I could leave my backpack there for another couple of hours but to “close it tightly in case they steal”. Didn’t feel very safe
The location is great, they also have a cafe/bar which is nice. The shower works perfectly.

PhilippinesThe front desk (old lady at late 40's) was rude. We don’t know if it’s bc we’re locals or what but before we got there, we called the hostel for directions and we already sensed something was off with her. The vibe wasn’t welcoming upon check in. The space was cramped for 8 pax in the room. No space for big bags. Hand wash area and bathroom were not maintained. Honestly, it wasn’t the best stay. We didn’t feel welcomed at all. Better choose a different f place if you’re planning to visit Moalboal with friends.
Accessible and convenient from the beach. Approachable owner.

AustraliaThere was no lockable lockers avaliable. And no communal area other than the cafe but it can be difficult to source a power point so it is not ideal for those who are working or studying and need to use a laptop and need a space to work. But the wifi works well.
Clean, comfortable, beds had curtains and didn't make noice or wobble when you move. And really good location. Short walk to the beach and very close to a lot of good food spots. The Cafe that the hostel is attached to sells really nice deserts which you recieve a discount on when you stay there. You can also book canyoneering through the hostel. The tour guides were amazing and a 10/10 experience.
