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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

New ZealandI tried to have a shower and the water never warmed up, but I was told by another guest that there’s a shower on the terrace that has got water. The location is not perfect but i enjoyed getting my steps in.
Loved the staff, they’re so nice and accommodating! Nice to have a living room to do laptop work in. The terrace is nice to do work on too! I had such great sleeps here. It was sooo quiet.

EstoniaLocation is top of the hill, so I'm the hot day it needs good sport to walk up there, or take a taxi. But that's natural minus of nice location...
Location is nice, at good Vollga area. Rooms has air-condition is good plus in the summer! Lots of space in public areas and nice roofbar, free coffee in the morning!

United KingdomThings were stolen from the fridge in the kitchen, pissed me off, not the hostels fault, a couple of long term guests, who don't clean their mess up means the kitchen gets messy quickly.. Some guests can really make the place go down hill quickly If the owners put CCTV in the kitchen then the problem would stop quickly.
Good location, good facilities, clean, comfortable, I would definitely stay here again. Potentially a great hostel

ArgentinaNothing. Everything was great and if there was a problem the staff would solve it immediately
My staying at top view was very pleasant. I stayed in a female shared dorm. There is air conditioner in the room, the bed was comfortable and the private bathroom was clean. There are two kitchen in the hostel which is a good alternative if you want to skip restaurants or just store some food on the fridge. The location of the hostel is more than appropriate, you can be in the avenue in just a few minutes by walk where you can find restaurants, stores, atm and supermarkets and you will also be very close to the beach. The staff was really kind and they’re always willing to help as well as the people that lives around the area. I had some pleasant time (every day) at the rooftop which was my favorite part of the hostel. I would recommend to have some breakfast while enjoying the view or maybe head over for a drink during the night. If you bring a positive vibe and a polite attitude you would definitely have a pleasant holiday and you will meet really nice people :) I would visit once again next time I’m in Dürres.

PolandLoose outlet in dorm A, bed 9 drove me a bit crazy but I forgot to say anything - had to support the charger from the bottom for it to work. A lot of mosquitoes (I know, there's not a lot to do about it but there could've been an electric mosquito catcher in the common room). A/C although set to 25C felt a bit cold (but I got an extra warm blanket free of charge so not a huge issue), there was a bit of juggling between toilets (some didn't have soap at the moment, some didn't have toilet paper and you had to basically go to different ones every second time) and the frying pans weren't really that non-stick 😅
Comfortable, loved the privacy blanket besides the bed (although the separation from beds in front, in the back and on top could be better). Cozy common room, spacious rooftop, small gym (but huge plus that there's even a gym), great location and awesome hosts. Felt clean and tidy. Lots of places for hanging wet clothes

GermanyThe staff seems a bit unsocial and the vibe in the hostel was weird, too. It seems like a dead hostel. There is barley any communication ongoing (there were not many guests and it was not main season to be honest). As there were some constructions ongoing it was quite messy in the check in area and other areas.
The location is great, so close to the sea. Beds are comfy. It has a nice rooftop.

AustriaAs far as the premises are concerned, the bedroom is fine, but it is quite stuffy inside. There is kitchen, but there are barely any utensils. The bathroom is located upstairs. No soap provided whatsoever.
The hostel is in a calm area in the city center. There is a grocery store, a bakery, and a vegetable's store just 3 min away. This is a family hostel, and the owners are really friendly and helpful. The rooftop offers a great view though. Price/value ratio - good! Can recommend it for 1-2 days.
