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.).

ArgentinaWe had a hard time finding the place as there was no signs or anything. There's no elevator and the stairs are steep so don't bring heavy lugagge. These are just minor details imo, overall it was a good experience
It really is a friendly hostel, good vibes.

ItalyThe kitchen is good equipped but too small to cook and eat in more than 2-3 people. I had to drink my milk near the entrance twice because there was no space to sit down.
The location was super: only 15 min.from the Central Station, perfect to move by foot in the city Center. The room with 3 bedroom was spacious and the commmon bathrooms were always clean.

IrelandYou don't have any keys for this hostel, just the code for the entrance. It's a small establishment so the rooms not having any locks didn't matter that much, but it was a bit of a surprise for me when I arrived.
Owner is very friendly and accommodation, however there is no traditional reception per se. The whole place is very neatly organized and clean, but it is spread over multiple floors so prepare the climb a lot of stairs. The rooftop terrace was a very nice unexpected surprise, and had the weather been better and I had I stayed longer, I would have totally taken advantage of that more. The kitchen was small, but cute.

United KingdomThe hostel is located in the upper floors of a traditional house in this old part of Zurich. The ground floor, like most others adjacent, is dedicated to a small shop. The hostel and shop share a entrance with the doors at right-angles. I understand that when the shopkeeper obtained the shop, the house above was occupied by an old lady. When she died, the house was acquired by the current hostel owners. During my stay, I witnessed several occasions when the common doorway was blocked by new arrivals to the hostel that resulted in the shopkeeper pleading for a clear entrance to her shop.
The staff were very helpful. I was given a tour of the hostel facilities over the 6 floors. The small kitchen had a kettle and teabags available.
