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.).

LatviaThe staff (Daniele at the reception) was super helpful and welcoming. The place was clean, it had a nice terrace to have a drink or dinner and to watch sunset. There was also a small pool. The breakfast buffet was really good. We read in some other reviews that there was a fee for using the kitchen but that is NOT true. No extra charges for anything.

CanadaThe drains in the bathroom smell awful, had to keep the door closed at all times but being in there was not fun. Wish the eggs were attended to a bit more as I only got the last bits and tried waiting for more with no luck.
Great location, a short walk to the beach and restaurants nearby. Staff were lovely. Person who check us in was very kind. Beautiful set-up of the coworking space. Parking in the back was nice to have. The bed we had was very comfortable and the ac worked well. Loved the room we had, (room #1 I believe) in the building beside the hostel (still was able to use the amenities), had 2 sets of patio doors so loved using the side one and felt we had great privacy there. Walked right out onto the 2nd pool too which was lovely. Water pressure was excellent. We had breakfast included in our stay and it was a good spread, warm croissants, buns, cheese, meat, salad, mini muffins, yogurt with toppings, bread with butter & Nutella, eggs, turkey bacon, juice, fruit.

United KingdomQuite a 'tourist' vibe here , perhaps because of it's size and lack of cosy feeling. Not a grocery store nearby. Not the fault of the hostel , but it would probably mean I don't come here again, unless the hostel starts selling produce.
Good facilities . Big place. Nice to have bar and cafe option . Enjoyed having female only dorm option too! important for me. Helpful person at reception.

United StatesCharged €4 for a towel and €1 for a locker. Only one toilet worked for the shared bathroom of both 8 men and 8 women. Thankfully the night I stayed was quiet with only about six of us sharing that bathroom.
It was a fun style. Breakfast was very nice. Staff was pretty friendly. Bar/ play room was a comfortable space to hangout and have drinks.

GermanySome facilities are quite worn off. We had to change room due to that our door was unable to lock. There was a bartender at night who was not friendly at all.
They staff was friendly (especially reception and the morning staff at the bar) and supported us with changing rooms to one on the adyacent building as the door from the room we booked was unable to lock. The bar has a nice atmosphere and overall we were comfortable.

EstoniaThe windows were not soundproof, so whenever there were people talking outside until the late hours, we could hear everything perfectly. If you are looking for a quiet place, be aware that there are a lot of young surfers around all the time. Our room was next to some kind of kitchen ventilator, which caused consistent noise in our room. The room door didn't lock properly so when we left the room, you could actually open it without the keycard. When we went to sleep, we weren't sure if the door was locked or not.
The location was perfect, amazing view from the balcony. Coffee tasted great! The breakfast was super. They have a bar downstairs where you can have burgers, snacks and drinks. Everything tasted great. Beds were comfortable and the room was clean.

GermanyBathrooms could have been cleaner, and rooms were too crowded (didn't even see the balcony as a bed was standing in front of the door). Not the hostel's fault, but: if you're hiking, be aware that the nearest supermarket is another 2,6 km away.
