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.).

GermanyAt night it was a bit loud from people partying on the streets since it's pretty central. But if you bring ear plugs or have a room on the other side of the house that might be not a problem.
The staff is great. Super friendly, so I could leave my backpack in the hostel after checking out until the evening and also use the common rooms. Originally I booked a dorm but got upgraded to a private room which has perfect size and great bathroom. Bed Was really comfy. Location is great! All the restaurants and bars are close, as well as the coast.

CanadaIncredible location, near to lots of restaurants, bars and cafes. Not loud since it’s on a side street. Owner was very kind. The building is very old, so the room and bathroom are quite dated. Towels and linens are mismatched and used, but seemed clean. It is significantly cheaper than every other place in Izmir, so you get what you pay for. Definitely a hostel vibe rather than a hotel.

JordanThe mattress is not very comfy, there’s a very loud music at night out from a nearby night club, there is only a single bathroom 🚽 and there’s slight stink from the toilet, when I reached at night I didn’t get a towel maybe because I booked late.
Excellent location close to the city center where different transportations are available, so friendly staff, good hub for meeting diverse people, the internet 🛜 is very good and the rooms are spacious and clean.

RussiaBe aware that there are mixed rooms only. At one point it turned out that it was just me and another guy living in the hostel and we were put in the same room. The owner agreed to move me into a separate room after my complaint, though. Also, I was bitten by some insects, hopefully just mosquitoes (it's humid in that old building so that's probably it). But it's been a week after my stay and the bites are still red and itchy, which is annoying. It is not that much cheaper than a room in a regular hotel to put up with it. Maybe it's different in the high season
WiFi was of high quality. Centrally located. The historical building is stunning. It's clean and nicely decorated.

GermanyI booked a room with a private bathroom which was non existing. When they saw my face when looking at the (extremely disgusting) bathroom I was supposed to use, they showed me the private bathroom of the other room. So every time I wanted to use it I had to go through the other room… I was told to have a terrace with a garden view in my room, which was also not true. Also the room was approximately 30 TL more expensive than on booking.com. I left a day earlier and the staff was extremely keen on Transferring me the money back even though I said it is not needed. The money never came, and I don’t understand why making such a big fuzz about it if they didn’t do it anyways…
The hospitality of the hosts! And it had AC, free and clean towels.

CanadaDorm doors seriously need WD40. They squeak loudly every time the door is opened which isn’t great when people are coming and going late night and early morning and this could easily be solved. Need a curtain for shower. Water gets everywhere. When I was staying, the shower was also falling out of the wall but was still usable.. No curtains on the top bunks.
Location is great, not far from train station. Clean, comfortable beds and AC in room with security lockers for valuables. Didn’t use the kitchen but they have one as well as filtered water. Staff are nice. Free laundry!!

GermanyThe bathroom had no door! There was just a little curtain, so if you travel with someone else, you have no privacy in the bathroom. The bed was very uncomfortable, and what was supposed to be a bed for 2 was a bed for 1 (the cover was not enough to cover two people). There were only two electric sockets in the accommodation, one in the room and one above the basin, but both were loose, with cables being exposed, so we were a bit scared to use them. The window was impossible to open and there were people loud behind it till late, so earplugs might be recommended,
The area is very nice, full of cafés, nightlife and a promenade nearby. It's close to the Alsancak station with direct connection to the airport. The staff was friendly and did their best to help. The bathroom was fine, if not counting that there was no bathroom door.
