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.).

The space was well taken care of and nice. Right next to the subway, which made it easy to get anywhere in the city, plus super affordable! Of the nearly 60+ hostels I've stayed in, this was one of the top ones.

United Kingdom- only allow you to store bags for a certain time and don’t let you use the facilities (toilet etc) after 4pm after checkout - they asked us to leave when going to get our bags that were in storage. (They tell you this is their policy upon checkin so was not a surprise to us but just to be aware)
- amazing view of the city from the double bed! 10th floor - double bed in 10 bed dorm was so comfy with such comfy bedding - great location centrally, near train station, right by metro on red line, really central and easy to get around - free juice in the hostel! - nice touches in the bathroom including toiletries and hair bands and cotton pads - best hostel that we have stayed in in Taiwan! - lockers in the dorm for valuables - enough space in the dorm (we only had 1 other person in there in the 10 bed dorm in March)

Comfy bed (I had the double one), with a nice view over the city. The place is clean, quiet enough, lovely staff, and WiFi was strong (and with good signal in both rooms and lobby). Good value for money and good location (literally a minute away from MRT exit, with PX mart and 7-Eleven less than 5 min away)

GermanyToilets/showers are located in the common area, so you need to walk through the whole area while people are working or eating there. The female shower/toilet area was not very clean.
We liked our stay in PaperPlane. The building is right next to the subway station and the hostel is located on the 10th floor and has an amazing view over the city. There is a free drinks machine with very nice choice of drinks (very refreshing). The dorm was spacious and clean. Our bed was also right next to the window and we had an amazing morning/night city view.

MalaysiaWe had the double-bed in a mixed room - was slightly stuffy, but that was probably because someone adjusted the air-conditioner settings in the night. The couple in the next bed also had their phones on loud vibrations - the entire night; it was bearable, but slightly annoying.
The location was fabulous! It was located right next to the Metro station, and made for easy transfer. Lots of surrounding breakfast/lunch places too! The room was great! Big bed, comfortable sheets, great view from the bed. Love the locker safes, and the slippers they made everyone wear - I love the idea, instead of having everybody trudging around in a mixed shared bedroom with questionable shoes! Clean and spacious shared toilets/bathrooms too! Free juice dispenser at the lobby too, so we saved a little on sweet drinks when we were craving something juicy and sweet and had already gotten tired with boba (gasp the blasphemy). There were guava tea (my favourite!), apple cider (my partner couldn't get enough of that) and mixed fruit tea. The machine only operates from 7.30am till 10.30pm, but that's plenty of time. :D Huge shared fridge too, with provided sticky labels and pens :D

NetherlandsThe hostel isn't huge, but still quite a lot of beds. Like with other bigger hostels there is little to no social interaction with other travellers. Asian/local tourists tend to stick together, so you have to be lucky to meet other like minded travellers to hang out with. I didn't like the facts that the toilet and showers are on the other side of the hostel. You have to walk through the conmon room to get there, which is kinda annoying in the middle of the night. Also, it was a bit hard to find the hostel. I did get a message through Booking with a link to get some directions, but the link didn't work so I had to find the entrance myself. Tip: it's on the side of the building, floor number 10.
Very clean hostel in a great location in Kaohsiung. Close to the metro (exit 4) and close to a lot of cute bars and coffee shops. The rooms are big and have a fantastic view of the city. Price is fair!

TaiwanGetting to the bathroom. I hope I misunderstood but it seemed I would have to exit the main door then walk across near the lounge area to get to the bathroom. I did not end up staying the night because I went out with friends.
The bed was very comfortable with clean bedsheets. there was also a charging port available on each bed. the large window in the room to see the night lights was beautiful.

TaiwanThe mattress in dorm rooms may not support your weight if you are very big guy, causing you sleeping in a slightly pit shape with hard plank on your back; also the storing space in the room is limited, you may need to consider checking it at the counter if you have too much luggage.
The location itself is superb, as it is very near to the MRT station, also the light rail, THSR and Railway via transfer; the breakfast choice is abundant within 5-10 min walk. The room, bathroom, and the shower are tidy, and with a small charge, you can do your laundry and tumble dry, though unless you need that clothes ASAP, I don't think you need dryer in Kaohsiung.

PhilippinesThat tiny girl who spoke minimal English is NOT FRIENDLY and FROWNED ALOT. I booked more than 3 months prior and asked for additional pillows and lower bunks because we are not young people. With a dead face, she grudgingly declined our requests as there were guests coming from that concert near the harbor, obviously giving more priority to walk in guests rather than those who booked earlier. I also hated that guests are required to collect and deposit used bed linen, comforter etc. in a bin when you check out.
Location is very good. Room also good with a nice view. Cleanliness is just okay. Could be better
