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...).

FranceThe culture of smoking: the ground floor and upper floor were smelly because of the people smoking on the entrance terrace. Only 1 bathroom per floor often occupied
A small dorm for 4 people with a large wardrobe and proper shutters and curtains for the bottom beds. 2 kitchens and a large bathroom. A living space to socialize. A breakfast for a good start. A free parking space just next door for our rental car. The location next to the coastal path Gijón-La Ñora and reasonably close to the centre of town .

GermanyThe dormitory was really smelly and the bed did not feel very clean. I’ve heard that one guest had problems with bed bugs. There are not enough bathrooms, which makes you wait in a line. And the hostel is not very clean.
The hostel has a nice vibe and you can easily meet other travelers. The hostel offers surf classes for a reasonable price. It was very convenient and a lot of fun to join them. It’s nice that there’s some outdoor space and a garden.

ItalyA little bit outside of the city but reaching San Lorenzo beach is only 20 minutes walk! Guests were a little bit loud in the night after 11pm
The staff is very friendly and helpful, they all speak English and could be helpful for people that don’t speak Spanish. The vibe of the hostel overall is friendly and young, it’s surfing-focused so ideal if you want to experience that. Breakfast is also great.

SpainThe bunk beds are quite noisy and it will take you time to get used to them. I missed a paper explaining basic coexisting rules in each room. Some people think they are at home and they bring other guests to the room, they leave all their stuff around the room, they set alarms that they are not able to stop and awake other guests... So, in other to decrease these impolite behaviours, it would be great to stick "a basic rule decalogue" on the door of each room.
The place is fully-equipped. You can find everything a traveller needs over there. The ambience is amazing and the people from the hostel propose activities during the week so that you can have fun during your stay. The workers and volunteers from the place are not only amazing, but also helpful and caring.

Such a nice location, near the ocean and a little beach bar that has a perfect spot for sunset awe. The hostel itself is a big house that is pleasant to take a moment to chill and even surf or paddle.

IrelandThe cleanliness of the kitchen at some times of the day and the cleanliness of the floors. Mattresses were ok but top bunk was difficult to get into and sheets were not put on my matress properly when I first arrived and had to do this myself which was difficult.
The location, the shared spaces on the ground floor and the garden/terrace

United StatesI was psyched to take a shower after seeing the bathroom, but it definitely looked a lot better than it performed. For the life of me, I couldn't get any hot water and the pressure was disappointing. Also, the bamboo system for drying clothes sucks and I found it baffling that a hostel centered around going to the beach didn't have any proper clothes lines for the inevitable flux or wet garments needing to be dried
The volunteers were friendly and really helpful. The vibe was very communal, which was great. The included breakfast was AWESOME! It's out of town, but easy enough to get to on the bus. Lots of space to hang out, both indoors and outdoors

United StatesOdd bathroom setup. Drying clothes is a hassle as you can’t dry them outside, so they are in a basement which really didn’t work
Near the beach and park, but a bit from downtown. Works if that is what you want. Shared spaces were nice, especially outside. Staff were A+

Great cafe from the host, she was very friendly; Place looked new, plenty space to spend time with other or sitting alone. I was on Camino, so i went to sleep pretty early, but otherwise i would join the social gathering downstairs
