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.).

Bosnia and Herzegovina-
The property has some structural issues (badly done plumbing system so the kitchen/dorm drains get blocked), lacks systemic anti-mosquito action (nets, sprays, etc.) and reliable (or, at times, any) wi-fi but features a well-equipped kitchen and several nice common areas. Still, in all honesty, I extended my stay purely for how comfortable and welcomed Gabi made me. That girl is a rock star!

SpainBathroom’s floor was full of hair so I’d recommend to have it cleaned more frequently.
There’s a nice park just in front of the hostel. Filter water, lockers, fans.. basically all you need. Staff are young and make friends with guests and you can expect to get to know other travelers.

United KingdomI sent several messages asking about tours and got no response. The manager later said they stopped doing them as there was no demand. But why not have some details to hand? What did make me grumpy was they said you could get breakfast (at a cost) but the ladies in the kitchen weren't interested. One morning when I asked, I sat and watched them cook it, then eat it. They said they forgot i had asked. It was easier to go around the corner..And you need earplugs. It's only single glazed, there is abus stop outside,and the busses all have sirens.
It is a hostel, but I paid for a room with a private bathroom and it was huge! While the decor was tired, it was clean. The location was secure and it was nice to have the park across the road. Downtown was only a walk away and there were lots of Ubers.The water was warm and the WiFi worked.

RussiaThe WiFi just is not working AT ALL, we have just arrived to a new country, we did ’t have a sim-card, and what we were supposed to do without internet ? How to search for the next stay, how to text people that you have arrived and whatever? When you book hostel you suppose that you gonna have WiFi.
It’s located close to the park, the kitchen and the sated areas are very good and comfortable. The stuff was very kind and friendly.

United KingdomWouldn't recommend location for lone female traveller, as its a long walk from the centre. Wi Fi doesn't work at all, after reading old reviews this issue won't be fixed in a while, if ever. Beds were hard and had grooves in them. A staff member (maybe the owner) played videos on Facebook very loudly in the communal space every day of our stay, which made the living area quite uninviting and not relaxing. Room isn't very secure from outside, as 3 large cockroaches got in our room.
Staff are kind and friendly. Good, well equipped kitchen with free drinking water. Large spacious room with own balcony. The location is OK, near a nice park.
