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.).

EstoniaNothing, just go for it ! Finding something as good quality as this for the same price is impossible.
It was perfect ! The facilities were super clean, the kitchen super functional with so many ustensils. The best part was that people who have leftover pasta/ rice and other things can leave it for the next customers. We got to do free meals while preventing waste! So smart ;) We were in the 16 people room and everyone was super respectful, trying to be careful both at night and early in the morning. The best part was probably the location, we could do almost everything by foot.

United StatesThe 4 bedroom dorm I was in was too small for 4 people. Couldn't access the electrical outlet by the bed. Shower doesn't provide shampoo nor soap. Mattress sinks in the center. Bed sheets cost extra. Beds have no curtain
Superb location, right in the center of historical Stockholm, yet still peaceful. Clean and nice quiet hostel guests (not a party place). Good wi-fi, the place is homey. You could leave luggage after checkout.

There's also an amazing restaurant nearby downstairs that's a must try. There's a lot of information available at the hostel, like a lot!

FranceMicrowave and the stove top/cooker didn’t work so I wasn’t able to reheat my dish + you have to pay extra if you want sheets and a towel.
Great location, near all touristic areas + welcoming staff. If you look a quiet place to rest, this hostel will be perfect.

GermanyThe only slight inconvenience was few toilets. In mornings you may queue a bit. But otherwise, during the day / evening they are free.
The location was amazing: old town, next to a river, historical building with a beautiful stairs. The room was spacious, functional and warm (in February). The hosts were super. I have arrived quite late -- after midnight or so -- but I entered the hostel without a problem and found a beautiful envelope with my name on it as well as sheets and a towel. Many thanks for that!

GermanyUntil today I cannot understand why some hostels around the world keep charging the use of bed sheets. It is not a complain about this hostel, but in general. Anyway, they charge it, but it is not expensive (I think it was 6 euros for bed sheet + towel, which I find a good deal).
Hostel well located, with good staff and proper facilities. With this value in an expensive city like Stockholm, to be honest, you cannot have better than this Hostel. Highly recommend to stay there.

BelgiumThe man at the front desk didn't tell me where the kitchen and bathrooms were and the many corners and little stairs didn't make it easier to find them.
Very nice hostel in the heart of the city. Good beds, clean bathrooms, a kitchen with all necessary supplies, friendly staff, big lockers in the shared bedroom (bring your own padlock). Would definitely recommend!

SwedenMight be difficult to fix, but in some of the showers, it took a very long time for the warm water to come out. It would eventually, but only after 5 or so minutes of continuous running, which was a bit annoying.
Nice, clean rooms and common areas. Good self-service options in the kitchen. Nice floor heating in the shower room.

Finlandon the first day of my check in there was a slight hiccup where one of my friend's bed was mistakenly cleaned up. this caused quite a hassle as there was no staff present at that timing to remedy the issue, and there had already been another guest who took over her bed. thankfully, there was another bed available.
location was right smack in the center of gamla stan which made it accessible to major tourist attractions. staff was extremely welcoming and even brought us for an apartment tour when we checked in. there was also a lounging area that had board games, books and staff recommendations for activities/shopping/food.

New ZealandWhen I arrived it was after hours and was given a code to enter my room. I tried entering the code several times which sounded like it worked but the door wouldn’t open. Turns out the people already in the room had locked the door from the inside. Luckily they heard me and opened the door or else I would’ve been stranded out in the common room. A suggestion might be to let the people in the room know that someone else is coming later that night and not to lock the door from the inside.
It was in a very good location, and the lady on reception was super nice and friendly. Also enjoyed being in a smaller 4 bed room. The bathrooms were really clean and the place was super warm which was great after being outside in negative temps.
