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.).

SwedenNot much to do for small children. Bathrooms are well maintained but quite dated and small (1980's renovation?). Upstairs communal kitchen rather small. Poor wifi inside the room.
Easy access by own car, and convenient to drive to both Borlänge and Falun and close to Ornässtugan. Spacious common areas. Conference facilities. Downstairs and upstairs kitchen that can be used by guests. Reasonably spacious rooms with en suite shower/wc. Free parking. Nice countryside surroundings. Check-in by door code and key box worked fine when no staff is around.

United KingdomWe thought we were getting breakfast as we did last year, but there was no breakfast. Last year there was a very nice buffet. I was therefore expecting breakfast to be included which was disappointing and I am not sure why this happened.

United KingdomWell, I would have liked to have paid a little less, but it was high season and the hostel was full - so I guess the price, in local terms, was appropriate.
So nice I booked to stay a second night. It is a well maintained, warm and comfortable hostel (formerly accommodation for an agricultural college). Has all the facilities I needed including a well equipped kitchen . I enjoyed walking around the grounds and the local farmland.

SwedenThe mattress on the bed was to soft for me but it’s probably how most people want it.
We really enjoyed our stay at Vassbo Hostel. The location was very nice. We had our dog with us too and there were no problems as long as dog stayed in the room and not in the living area.

HungaryWe did not realised that bed linen was not included and the extra fee of this highered the price significantly. (The bed linen and towels for a 4-persons-family is heavy and would require an extra laggugage, which is pratically not an option, so in my opinion it would be more fair to indicate the total price (bed linen incl.) )
Nice house, very kind host. Our room was small, but it is OK for a short stay. The common areas are spacious and nicelly furnished. Own food can be prepeared in the common kitchen.

SwedenNo kitchen towels, first time we didn't take our own because usually Swedish YHA provide.
Location very pretty, in orchard, by a lake with jetty, free canoes and fishing. Great 50ies decor. Near many sights of Dalarna, Falugruvan only about 10mins by car.
