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...).

AustraliaLack of lockers for packs, though there were small ones for valuables. First floor room 1.1 especially you could hear all the noise from the room above due to the timber floors, except for those things it was enjoyable.
Good facilities/set up. Nice outdoor area. Good position as close to everything.

SloveniaThe room had an unpleasant odor that persisted throughout my stay, which greatly affected my comfort. Additionally, there was no socket near the bed, making it inconvenient to charge devices.
On the positive side, the breakfast provided was enjoyable, with a good variety of options. the hostel's location was a notable advantage. It was conveniently situated in a good location, allowing for easy access to nearby attractions, shops, and restaurants. This aspect added convenience and made exploring the area more enjoyable.

The location was very close to the train station, a little bit further than the center but at a walkable distance. The place was clean and the staff was nice. You need to pay a little extra for towels.

NetherlandsCommon room could have nicer tables but that is a matter of preference.
The Hostel is very well organized in general. There is a kitchen that is fully equiped with an oven and all the kitchen tools you would need. The hostel is extremely clean and tidy. The hostel has strict rules on noize in the evening and eating in the room. If you are looking for a very wild hostel this place might not be for you. But if you are looking for a nice place that is neat you will be satisfied.

United KingdomLocation isnt bad but not ideal. My room faced the street and was a bit overlooked. The internet connection was poor. Finally and the only thing that really bothered me, it was soooo noisy. The doors slamming on the corridor felt like it was inside my room really. People walking upstairs made a lot more noise than should. Even though I was on a private I had to use earplugs. Also, wish there was some indirect lighting in the room which would make it more cosy.
I was on a private room, the art on the wall was amazing. The room was quiet warm. The toillet was large and super clean. Bed and pillows were comfy. I liked the common areas as well.
