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.).

VietnamThe mattress had sunk too much, there was ant in my bed too. You should prepare cash to pay, card is accepted but you have to walk to the coffee near the dorm (5 mins walk - also 3% fee is added)
This dorm was closed to MRT station and the female staff was nice and helpful. My female only room have more than 10 bed but it was thankfully quiet at night.

FinlandIn our 16 person bedroom there was only one bathroom (shower+toilet without a sink). In addition there were only three bathrooms for the whole floor with three rooms. So the showers were quite busy. Also you couldn’t really use the toilets without getting your feet wet because the showers were basically on top of the toilet seats. The bathrooms were untidy and the showers didn’t function well. The staff (even male staff) came to our only female bedroom without knocking the door which was a bit uncomfortable.
The staff was friendly and helpful. Lockers under the beds were quite spacious and easy to use. There was no need to carry any keys or keycards. The beds were quite peaceful and dark with the dark curtains. The bedroom was clean. Before arriving we got excellent instructions how to get there from the airport.

Hong KongSome equipment are not adequate. The only 4-number washroom is crowded sometimes at night and the area for public chatting and working is limited. Also, with heated wetty weather and sweaty shirt, I think an easier and cheaper way of laundry could be offered. Besides, can any private lockers set up?Like We saw always in the school or mall with block by block, not just under the bed... Lastly, the Singapore travel or hotel tax upset me with unfold tiny area of mentioning it in the booking. Hey why don't you tell us in Direct and straight way?
The staff is polite and friendly. The facilities in the hostel is good like the bed is soft enough. The hostel is in the mosque street, located in the area of The Chinatown. I spent 2-3 days exploring here around and it's really an amazing place. You can see Sri Mariamman Temple, Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, The Chinatown complex, Chinatown point mall, people's park complex and Thian Hock Keng Temple. I think they are all 5-10 mins walking distance. So you can walk out of the hostel can view these attractions easily. Anyway, I think this is really a good place to stay and travel.

AustriaThe locker beneath the bed is not very high. If your luggage is too large to fit, there is not much room to store it without it getting into other people's way.
Very friendly and helpful host. Wide bed allowing you to store some of your things (e.g. a small backpack) at the foot of your bed overnight to have it within reach during the night/in the morning. Thick curtains for privacy, keeping out (most of) the light. Close to the subway (only a few minutes walk), and even within walking distance of the CBD (about 20 minutes).
