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.).

ColombiaI did not like how noisy it was outside. Also, the bathroom was not really clean, which might be understandable considering that some people were not taking care of cleanliness. I also had troubles contacting the host once I arrived to Prague, the main door was closed (I had a late night arrival) and it took time for them to reply my request to get the door opened.
Definitely, the best about this hostel is the lower price, as well as how easy it is to get there (by walking) from the train station (Mustek). The facilities (communal kitchen, bathroom and living room) make the stay confortable enough.

GermanyThe staff gave me the impression that a was a burden to them for arriving to check in, like they would have rather spent the time continuing their smartphone game. You can only pay cash, which is a shame because the ATMs in Prague have crazy high fees for foreigners.
I booked a dorm room with only 5 single beds instead of bunkbeds. That was very comfortable. The room was under the roof so it was quite hot at night but there was a (very loud) AC. The location is a good as it gets, extremely central, yet very quite at night, because the hostel entrance is located in the backyard of the building.

New ZealandWifi wasn’t great on the top story, and I struggled to get hold of nighttime reception during open hours.
Great location, and great value for money. The hostel was also very charming and had a lot of character - I felt very comfortable in it. Cleanliness was great, especially with the bathrooms.

United StatesIf you have the windows open and have a hard time sleeping with lots of noise, it's busy outside with lots of chatter and laughing. You have to pay with cash, which I didn't see advertised on booking so I had to go to an ATM. It would have been nice to have at least prepared for that.
Great location, near everything you would need. The room was nice. I loved the architecture of the building. The location is great.

IranThe location is too close to the center. It is kinda impossible to have good sleep on day or night. By bed was a sort of disaster. I mean bed number 2 in white room. it made noise with a simple movement on the bed. it was really annoying all the nights I stayed there. It seems it is not forbidden to have sex in shared room. while 2 teenagers having sx in dorm room, I asked the reception to warn them (they were drunk and I preferred not to talk them directly) The reception did not do anything and said: It is not forbidden to have sx here.

MexicoThey don’t accept payment with credit card!! And you have to pay in CZK, if you pay in EUR they don’t guarantee to return your change. Also you have to give a deposit for a key, and when you check out the deposit will be in CZK, not in EUR. The staff is not friendly, looked annoying for the tourism. It’s not clean, I saw the cleaning staff just folding again the blankets and sheets without washing it after somebody used them. The bathroom is not clean either. And the staff it’s not friendly. The beds are made of metal so is really noisy at night when everyone is falling sleep. Also I thought they would have air conditioning in a room for 12 people, but no, we only could keep open the windows in order to get cooler.

Location was perfect for my needs. The 4 female room was amazing! We even had our own full kitchen! The ovens "don't work" ( use google translate for the screens) in any of the kitchens. Our fridge was barely cold though. Used the "freezer" as our fridge.

United KingdomNot much of a hostel 'vibe' The spit of '24 hour' reception between two separate buildings was a pain- as was having to get through 5 locked gates/doors between the street and my bunk at night. I had booked a six bed dorm but ( perhaps because of peak season) an extra 2 beds were in the room - 8:beds but only six lockers... The name suggests it's in/on the old square but it isn't ,(though it's close)
Location - right in the centre The 'heritage' building It was clan, staff were friendly, bed was comfy, guest kitchen had everything it needed. The ceiling in my dorm was joyous.

EgyptOne bathroom in a 15-people room is not enough. Yes one bath room has 3 showers in it but who would go in to have a shower and keep the door open for whoever wants to jump in :D so the mornings were really difficult, I had to prepare and wake up earlier so I can get myself a spot in the queue. Some roommates were also so inconsiderate that they spent 30 minutes inside till I knocked, so that wasn’t really very suitable. Also the dust was covering everything literally except for the bed, the kitchen counters and bathrooms which were the only things getting cleaned up
The location is amazing, also having a kitchen inside of the room is definitely a plus. Staff are also nice.
