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.).

Czech RepublicFantastic spot to stay at when traveling solo! Location is right by the Venice beach and the area is safe, the room has access to private bathroom, heater and is tidy and clean - haven’t heard much outside noise either. Gary is a terrific host, makes you feel very welcomed and comfortable

GermanyThe room I stayed was very nice and cozy with a private bathroom, a big closet and a desk I could work on. The host is super friendly, as are the girls who are living there. The position of the place is just perfect. You step out right on the boardwalk, just a few steps from the beach, watch surfers in the morning while drinking coffee and grab one of the bikes to move around easily (next time I would like to ride up to Malibu!). Very convenient and fun! Next time I travel to L.A. I will ask for a room there again for sure!

United StatesI liked everything about the place- The only complaint I have (I was warned about this from the host too) the boardwalk food was not good but the local doordash options were great! Also this should be expected but there are a lot of people gone on drugs, they mind their business for the most part but they’re there.
Amazing stay! My first time at a hostel but I booked the private room and bathroom so it felt like a blend between airbnb and hotel stay. Everyone there was pleasant and clean. It is broken up into a few suites, the one I was in had a nice small balcony area and relaxing bright living room. The bedroom and shared space was very comfortable and there were keys for each entry point. The bathroom was clean and had a nice rainfall shower head - so please ** bring a shower cap ** if you don’t want your hair getting wet! Location was amazing right in front of “muscle beach” and on the boardwalk. Paid reserved parking was available but I was able to find free street parking every day! Short drive to all the tourist sites and nice walk/bike to anywhere on the boardwalk. Everything you need is there with the exception of your personal toiletries. I will definitely be back for my next stay. Oh yea please note it gets COLD at night - bring a good sweat suit to jump into!

United StatesDo not drink on the boardwalk!!! You will receive a ticket! AND yes the homeless suck throwing trash from cans as they eat it hope the city gets on it and solves this issue but it won't stop you from enjoying everything else we found them entertaining at times...
You will absolutely love this place!! Gary is awesome and very accommodating!! It's not like other hostiles where it's only bunk beds in a room with a bathroom your dorm is an entire apartment and if you get a chance book the cuddle puddle which is the bed that's in the common area no worries you'll still be able to sleep!! This place is so amazingly located but bring anything you want from LA as everything is overpriced here on the boardwalk. You will still love it!!
