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.).

HungaryI was here as a pilgrim on my way to Santiago de Compostela. I was not happy that the hostel didn't have a stamp for me. I also didn't like that the washing machine was very expensive. As I recall it was 10 euros to use the washing machine and 10 more to use the dryer. While 1 night in the hostel was 18 euros...so I didn't use the machines.
I liked the value for my money and the fact that everyone was kind. The staff speaks English and the rooms were clean. The facilities were also alright.

FinlandEarly check in is a problem because there is no one to open the door for you or keep your luggage but if you request in advance then they will arrange a luggage storage after 10am until check in.
Staff is vey welcome. They will wait until you come if you are little late than check in window. Rooms are spacious and airy but due to building structure there is no lift facility. There is a guest kitchen and terrace to eat in open air or in common room with TV Big market square is nearby. Station is also walkable. Bed and mattress is very comfortable. Blanket is also very fluffy and cozy

United KingdomOnly one electric ring plus microwave and sandwich toaster for cooking. Due to layout of building, the kitchen and its facilities were somewhat small for the number of guests.
Hot showers, friendly, helpful staff, walled garden with fruit trees, herbs, and tables and chairs, en-suite toilet and basin in dorm, location near centre with local small shops, supermarket, launderettes, access to hostel all day and no limit on number of days of visit. Overnight silence. Talking to others staying there. General cleanliness, with friendly, efficient and hard-working cleaning staff. The bedding provided, with white sheets and duvet covers, plus a warm blanket as the weather was cold when I arrived.

SingaporeSecurity is quite minimal. We managed to walk in without seeing any staff or anyone stopping us at around 9am, and walked all around the place trying to figure out how to check in lol. The door to my room also did not close properly :( The kitchen is located in a separate mini building, so you have to walk outside, which is interesting.
Incredible price, and pretty good location - you can get pretty much everywhere on foot, including the flixbus bus station. The toilet was clean, and all the facilities were decent.

NetherlandsI really think that the kitchen needs improvements. There is only one cooking pit for the entire hostel which is far too little. The place probably needs about 5-6 cooking pits at minimum. People simply said that they avoided cooking because of the time needed to wait for the cooking pit to free up. Also a bigger fridge is needed as it is hard to store your stuff (potentially with a labelling system so the fridge stays organized). The kitchen also needs a little bit more cups and supplies. The cleanliness of the upper cabinets in the kitchen can also be improved.
Very friendly staff who were very welcoming. I think the beds were quite comfortable. Really liked the fact that there were real sheets. Also generally the cleanliness of the place was on point. The location is quite good, walkable from TIC and also to the main tourist area. A Lidl and Pingo Doce are both about a 6-7 minute walk.

New ZealandObviously there are establishment issues ( e.g. not possible to do laundry - the washing machine and dryer were delivered as I was leaving 🫤 , the street sign was not yet erected etc) but these are temporary things...
The manager and family are excellent people, charming and properly helpful. The hostel is newly established, so freshly painted etc, and the rooms are comfortable - and quiet for a centre city location. Adequate kitchen and a small garden for dining etc ( if not raining 🤔)8
