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.).

IsraelAvoid this horrible place; spend a few more dollars elsewhere. No one told us about the lack of hot water after 9 pm. The hostel has a bar underneath, owned by the hostel's owners, and the loud music kept us awake until 2 am. We couldn't even reach the owner since he turned off his phone at 9 or 10 pm. To make matters worse, he never apologized and didn't respond to our texts for a week. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

LatviaIt was quit dirty all around. Floor is sticky, random stuff all over the room - box, clothes that someone has left. We were there for 2 days - WCs and showers were not cleaned a single time. Yes, I can agree with some reviews- some of mess is made by disgusting visitors, but lot of it is due to lack of simple cleaning standards by hostel. Shelf near my bed was all sticky and covered with food leftovers. Lot of auto messages from hostel - some were helpful, some had really outdated and misleading info (mask bylaw, discount on place that doesn’t exist anymore). Same time when we texted owner - no response.
Location is really good. It is the lowest price per night you can get in the area. Still quality could be way, way better with just few easy improvements. Self check in was easy and handy.

BelgiumHonestly the worst hostel I’ve ever stayed in. The bathrooms weren’t cleaned properly, if cleaned at all. We didn't get hot water once in the showers. The common area was a mess, fridge and bins overflowing. The kitchen area was small and there is hardly no countertop space. It was difficult to fill our water bottles as the water in the kitchen sink was always lukewarm, never cold. Our room was way too small to have six people in it, the sheets weren’t cleaned properly, there were holes in the walls and the AC did not work so we felt like we were in an oven every night. We had a terrible roommate (not the fault of the hostel) but we couldn’t find the manager to ask to move rooms. I’ve stayed in many hostels all over the world, and this is by far the worst.

Czech RepublicI understand that common room is nothing special. But for the price you charged for a bed in a small room with 5 other guys, boys and girls together, even the baby on the room.. The price is really too much for that!

CanadaBeds are wobbly, tilted, make a lot of noise and fell like you would fall had you moved any more, worst ever beds Hot water ends sooner No ac or fan to moderate the temperature in the room, can get extremely hot and boiling. No staff on campus to talk to issues or address concerns Rooms are smelly no air fresheners.
Good location, centre to downtown and all other amenities. It was a great hostel when opened in 2019 and I see it’s steeping to low quality now.

United KingdomNoisy extraction fan noise coming through the window.
Value for money, for us it was just a bed for the night after doing an outback horse riding trip in Banff, beats paying $500 for a hotel. Nice town, it would have been nice to stay a few days.

CanadaWere informed linens and towels provided. We had to ask for pillow cases and never received towels. We were there for 2 nights, asked 3x and still never received towels. Staff not around most of the time so difficult to resolve any issues. Common area very small and not particularly comfortable. It's a hostel so my expectations weren't high but towels would have been nice .
