Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CroatiaAnnoying people, don't have respect or any culture while being in shared dorm, crushing everything and packing at 1 am, then again at 6 am, leaving their phones alarm turned on for 10 minutes while they are outside of room. Nothing of this is hostel fault, just didn't have luck at all with roommates this time
Everything was great, good location, easy self check in, comfortable bed, clean bathrooms.

LebanonThe online check-in was not working and no one from the staff agreed to show up to let us check-in to get the room. They were asking us to pay in a very ridiculous and unsecured way which is providing our card number over the phone. After some argue, they agreed to give us access to the room and the next day someone passes by so we can pay them by cash.

KenyaThe wall is kind of thin,you can hear everything thats going on out there especially people who blow dry their hair at midnight
The location is very convenient, just a short walk away from the central station, if you are getting to Vienna by train this would be the perfect place for you. The self check in and combination system works pretty well, no need to carry a key card or actual key anymore.The space shuttle bed is spacious enough to give you enough comfort and privacy.

MexicoThere is no furniture in the room to sit on your shoes, etc. At least one chair would be nice.
The privacy in our rooms… We could open the doors of our beds and chat, or we could keep them closed and be on our own. I loved the light that dimmed There were plenty of bathrooms and showers on the first floor, and the common room was amazingly comfortable.

MexicoThere isn't much light for the room in general, so it's kind of dark if you want to repact your luggage or anything like that. And there is nothing to sit on…. That's a bit frustrating at times because sometimes the bed just doesn't work out.
The bed was comfortable, although the sheets were a little short. I love being able to close the bed off, and having my own individual plug and a nightlight.The kitchen is amazing, as well as the 2 machines there to supplement meals. And having a place Right there next to the main train station, and also with a large area full of busses that go to other cities outside of Vienna, is a big plus.

UkraineThere were not many products in the kitchen to use, for instance, I had to buy my own olive oil. The room itself was not very spacious, and it would be nice to have the lockers specifically for the luggage.
The location is great as it's about 50 meters from the underground connected to the train station, so in case of early flights it's the best place to stay. The system of the beds in capsules (locked from inside/outside) is actually nice. The bed was big, the bathroom was clean.

United States1) The automated online checkin/payment system and lack of in-person staff at most hours is inefficient for guests. For one, the payment system wouldn't accept my US credit card (which worked for every other hostel I stayed at on a multi-stop Europe trip), and I had to email the staff to send me a separate payment link (though fortunately, they responded quickly and courteously). In general, the digital system is extremely cumbersome (I wasted at least 30 mins of my time dealing with these payment/checkin issues), requires many steps, and seems like it just saves the hostel owners' labor costs whilst making life harder for guests. 2) The bedding facilities were a letdown in multiple subtle but highly annoying ways. First, the beds had extremely flimsy mattresses, which caused my back to hurt. Second, as other commenters have noted, the wooden sliding doors are quite loud. Third, the capsules' wooden design is easy to bump into/painful when you bump into it; this is compounded by the flimsy mattress as if you climb onto a a top bunk, your knees immediately hit the lip of the wooden frame when they sink into the flimsy mattress. Fourth, the ladders up to top bunks are positioned awkwardly (which increases the probability you bump into the wooden capsule doors/frames), and furthermore have some anti-slip tape on them that's very rough and rather painful to step your bare feet onto. Fifth, I got assigned to a bunk room on the 0th floor next to the street. There is no soundproofing capability between that room and people talking/walking around loudly outside. I was fortunate to have brought good earplugs. Others were not so lucky. Sixth, there's no separate luggage storage lockers. So you have to put everything in your bunk. If you have a top bunk, this is especially annoying.
The hostel is extremely located - it's literally right across the street from Vienna Hbf. You can actually walk from your train platform, then via the underground passageways, and emerge from an adjacent Metro exits that puts you right in front of the hostel. Facilities were also generally tidy.
