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.).

GreeceIs not that I don't like, I accepted that this is the place. I would like to have a garden and more space to stay outside. The place has a roof mini small terrace, very small. And also the kitchen is small and you canot cook, but for me it was good, I didn't want to cook. That's it.
The Sleep is the Best!!!! You really feel that you Rest. Is quiet, is clean, is intimate, the matrice is good. You are in the center, but in a quiet place, because the small restaurant under close early. The stuff is very very very helpful and I appreciate this kindness and helpfulness a lot. I really recommend. Is my first hostel experience and I am content. 🤗🫶🙏

Stayed in the upstairs apartment, was really tidy and clean. Had cooking facilities so was able to cook meals which was great. Location was excellent, walking distance everywhere.

GermanyIt would be nice to have cooking facilities and a common space (but they have a nice terrace that one could use for socialising).
It is a beautiful hostel! It is super clean, close to the ocean and the beds are sooo comfortable. It is really great to have some privacy during sleep. The staff was super friendly.

SwitzerlandIf I'd have to say something, it would be that the hostel does not really have a common/social area where guests can chill or do something on their computer, nor is it possible to cook. So all the social contacts are usually in the dorm. Though I understand that it is due to the small size of the hostel, I would've been happy to know that beforehand.
Friendly Staff, great capsule style bedroom with big comfy matress, a lot of privacy due to the curtains, great locker beneath bed. It was alway very tidy, and guests are asked to leave their shoes at the front door. Location pretty much perfect, everything is in walking distance.

Amazing staff very helpful, Gonçalo showed me the best surf spots and if you need a surf buddy, he is available! The terrace if very nice to read a book at the end of the day.

AustraliaThere isn't much communal areas to hang out. Only a small terrace and then a very small kitchen area. A bigger fridge would be nice.
The place is in a great location, dorm room was nice with the blackout roller blinds on each bed enabling you to have your own space and shutoff from the rest of the room when necessary. Comfortable beds too.

SwitzerlandI really enjoyed my stay, though if I have to mention something maybe was the lack of an extended shared common indoor area (there is a kitchenette though the space is quite small in there), anyway it's very well compensated by an extremely nice terrace on the rooftop where people can chill :)
I loved the concept of bunked capsule beds and really appreciate the host (Gonzalo), super nice person, very friendly and sharing a lot of useful information about Ericeira. The location is also great.
