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.).

ChinaIt’s a bit far from downtown Hualien if that’s your thing. Mostly quiet at night, but you can hear motorcycles on the street occasionally.
William is awesome. He’s so helpful. He really made my trip much more pleasant. Location was excellent for visiting parks. So close to the train and bus stations.

CanadaLocation is perfect - close to the train station and there is a nice riverfront path we took to walk downtown. William is an excellent host and went out of his way when we left an item in our room - thank you! The room and common space were really cozy and well decorated, with lots of games and books to keep us occupied. Great experience.

GermanyNo kitchen, but lots of food options around.
I loved my stay at the 123 Cheers Hostel!! The staff was incredibly nice and helpful in arranging trips. The common area was cozy and is made for meeting people, the bed is comfortable and the hostel overall is clean. Free coffee! Location close to the station and free bikes to get into the city center. Would definitely come again!!

FranceThe room can feel a bit crowded when full, especially since there is only one bathroom including toilet and shower for 8 people within the room but if you are not in a rush you can just queue patiently with a good book and enjoy the common space until you go to bed. The manager did also mention there was a toilet and shower on the ground floor free for everyone's use!
Great location if you are looking to visit taroko, just next to the train & bus station. The common room is very cozy and you can expect a warm welcome and accommodating manager for the duration of your stay ! Bear in mind that if you are looking to enjoy the city center and night market you will need a bike/scooter or else be prepared for a 40min walk. So it depends on what you want to experience in Hualien ! In my case the manager offered me to borrow the free bikes to get to the center quickly for a few days in a row so it was very convenient! I highly recommend this place :)

TaiwanWilliam is an amazing host, and has created a really welcoming and fun space for travelers. Even though Taiwan has a lot of hostels, I’ve found it’s rare to find one that has a nice social atmosphere. I definitely recommend staying here if you’re coming through Hualien.
