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.).

PolandWell, it seems that cleanliness is not the top priority here. You could find some stuff left under the beds. The kitchen is very small and poorly equipped, so cooking is rather a fallback option. There are no furniture like shelves or wardrobes in the room, so you need to keep your stuff in your luggage.
Hostel Kafka is perfectly located. One can't imagine better spot, just between the Old Town Market Square and a subway station. The beds are large and comfortable. The elevator is available for guests.

United StatesOne of the toilets was semi-broken as well as one of the lights. The showers weren’t the cleanest but they weren’t the dirtiest either.
I loved that I got a key to get in and could go in and out whenever. The rooms were nice and comfortable and you got a lock and a locker which was nice. It is in a GREAT LOCATION and close to a strip of clubs and bars but not part of the rowdy area.

CanadaThe key system is not perfect. You have to carry 3 keys to access your room. Roommates sometimes leave your room open. You can lock yourself inside hostel and have no way out. No breakfast on place. However they sell 5€ voucher for a café nearby. Réception is not 24h
Nice hostel in the centre of Prague. Walking distance to all tourist attractions. Good public transport, supermarket, cafés, banks nearby. Clean room and bed. Clean showers and toilet. Quiet. Lockers in the room. They give you a towel. VERY nice lady on réception.

GermanyThe reception was closed when I checked out around 10am so I could not leave my luggage at the hostel. Since I had a few hours until my train, it would have been helpful if I could store my luggage at the hostel instead of having to drag it around everywhere.
the location of the hostel is excellent! As a solo traveler, it was helpful to be so centrally located as I knew I could easily reach back. The rooms were cozy and the bathrooms were clean.

ItalyThe room, the bathroom and the shower, was not clean. The carpet was old and dirty. I had issues with the bed slats, which were all taped together, and some fell apart during the night. Although it’s not the hostel’s fault, the quiet hours from 10 PM to 6 AM were not respected. Many guests were noisy, and some even smoked in the hallway while talking on speakerphone. Since there’s no staff present, these issues cannot be properly monitored or addressed.”
The position is perfect the room is really big And even if the staf (in our case)may not seem really welcoming they are Actually quite helpfull if you ask them something

New ZealandWe got given a dirty unclean room. Although the blonde staff member was really sincere and apologetic. The next day the brunette staff member was so rude to us when we enquired about laundry. Overpriced for what you get. Not really a proper hostel. No events or anything like that.

United KingdomBuilding is dark and run down. There was no one at reception when I arrived at 2pm, and I couldn’t contact the number for help. The lock and key are very old and get stuck often- I was locked out my room many times and couldn’t get help because no one was ever at reception. When someone was at reception, she was very rude and didn’t want to help at all. I was also overcharged for my stay, and even though she eventually (and reluctantly) gave me the money back, she was very rude and angry about it. There is a kitchen but it’s dark and unclean. I only stayed 2 nights so it was fine, but I really wouldn’t recommend

IndiaWe had bus very late at night, so wanted to keep the luggage till 8:00 PM in the evening but they allowed only till 5:30 PM. And also while enquiring about that or requesting to extend, staff behaviour was rude, which kind of spoiled the stay experience. They took the key as well so to get the luggage we had to ring the bell for main door and reception will open it. But they open it very late, infact someone was coming outside they opened the gate not the reception. There was no fan or AC in the room, being very hot outside it was very difficult and we had to keep all windows opened.
Location was good, right at the center of old town. Room size was good for 4 people stay. Kitchen, common shower, common toilet, drinking water, cleanliness, these aspects were good.
