How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, comfy beds. Delicious food in a restaurant. Conveniently located close to the surfing spots. Coworking space is awesome, perfect to get the work done and enjoy surfing later:)

It was nice. We've been there in January and the town was so empty.. I do not recommend to go there during the low season. The food and cocktails at the restaurant were very good.

I would take out the boxes in the bed. Too big and imposing. Use the drawer under bed and put boxes on a vacant end wall etc I struggled not to hit the box when turning in night. Sorry but that's a definite change or reduce size.
Great staff, friendly all in one house. Beds were clean and bathroom also. Bar was good and offerred a range of food. Great atmosphere and good kitchen for cooking and preparing own food.

Some of the staff didin't feel like they were really enjoying their work and weren't super helpful and got some "mean girl" vibes from them.
Loved the free yoga and the lovely instructor. Rooms were clean and the beds were super comfy. Food in the restaurant was quite nice and affordable. We had a good time!

Cleaner room. But that was after a lot of time at the beach and sand tends to get everywhere anyway. There is basically nothing I would change.
Good vibes. Really relaxed space and had a lot going on all the time. The staff were very friendly and happy to help. The app was very useful too.

The dorm bed had a huge wooden box for storage which makes sleeping a bit uncomfortable.
The hostel has amazing staff and a very convenient parking. It's very well decorated and has all the necessary facilities and a great common area to work in. Take into account that the cleanliness reflects the fact it's a surfers lodge next to beach. Go for a private if wet suits and sand might bother you.

It’s a bit of a walk to the beach, but had a car so wasn’t an issue.
Selina Surf hostel is a really great place to meet people and generally just to hangout. You’ll easily make friends here. They have great facilities for working, gyming, surf skating….with really nice private rooms looking over the fields. It almost has hotel standard with hostel vibes 👌. What makes the place particularly good is the staff. Big shout out to Diana, Anderson and Nelson, for helping with anything I needed. The Batman additionally helped me sell my board in 2 hours through his friends. I will definitely be back for a longer coworking stay.

Could’ve done with more bowls in kitchen. Shame we could only use basement to practice surfakate on Sundays.
Rooms had everything needed plus nice balcony, comfy beds - my son enjoyed the bunkbed. The skate ramp was fun and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere, showed the football and staff were excellent. Karaoke was fun as was the live music and great we could take a surfskate class in basement. Interesting to have a tattoo studio on premises.
