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...).

SwitzerlandThe capsule makes a lot of noise when moving around. You could feel the springs in the mattress. Very little storage space in the dorm room. Already on the pricier side for a hostel, on top of that you need to pay extra for a lot of things like luggage storage and using the facilities after check out. This was definitely a first for me, in most other places I wouldn't even have to ask for it as it's offered as something self-evident. Leaves a bit of a bitter aftertaste and doesn't exactly lead to good vibes in the hostel. It's a pity because I think with a bit more hospitality it really has the potentail to be a great hostel.
Very clean, nice staff, well equipped kitchen, quite nice common area, they provide you with a lock for the locker. The capsule offers a lot of privacy. Nice location close to the waterfront & bus terminal.

It’s on the river. Close to bus station. Nice views from terrace. The Privacy you have with a capsule.

FranceThe caravan is badly organized which makes it uncomfortable. There is a lot of wasted space, no hooks/shelves to organize your things. The sleeping space has very low selling while underneath it there is plenty of unused space. The caravan does not have a toilet nor sink so to do anything apart from sleeping, you need to take your key each time and cross the parking lot which makes it awkward.
The location is great, close to the bus terminals and city centre. There is a terrace and inside rooms to hang out. You can cook there and watch international TV.

GermanyA hostel that tries to squeeze every single penny out of you. Annoying! 1. Only hostel in town, they take advantage of it and start with a pretty high standard rate 2. The charge for EVERY single thing extra. Late check-out, ok understandable. But also early check-in, which is already poor. But then the worst: luggage storage: 3k, kitchen use after checkout: 4k. What next? Charge me for wifi? Water? Electricity? It just makes you feel like a damn cash cow. No hospitality vibes whatsoever. 3. Try to charge the VAT for Chileans for non Chileans. Only after discussion I did not need to pay that. You know, how it works, don't try to cheat on me. 4. After some time I got the message they wanted to mark me as a no-show in booking. I assume in order to just not pay the fee to booking. I protested, then they didn't. Shady!
