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.).

SerbiaTo get to the showers or toilets one need to go through the main hall, which is a little bit awkward, especially if there's a concert. It was also quite chill in the room.
Very friendly stuff and blazingly fast internet. A lot of room to sit and work. Relatively big bunk beds. Storage lockers right near the bed.

SpainThe breakfast could have been a little more complete, and there was no keycard to the room, but other than that, everything was fine.
The staff was really nice and helpful, the facilities were very good, I liked the curtains in the rooms. Also, the vibes in the common room were the best! I loved the Halloween decorations and the music playing, I honestly felt very safe and comfortable in that common room.

PeruThe bathroom situation was very uncomfortable to be, as well as the lockers. There was a situation in my room with a drunk/high man, which of course can’t be control by the staff, however I expected a better reaction from the receptionist (guy with curly hair).
The staff was mostly nice and caring. The común areas were perfect and there was always cookie on the table for the guests for free! You can get good information at the front desk.

NetherlandsNot much of an atmosphere inside the hostel, it’s pretty quiet and travelers didn’t seem to mix. I guess that’s ok if you are just there to chill. There is also no outdoor space like roof terrace. The location is pretty far from the station but still accessible by public transport.
Cool place, beds are comfortable and private, showers are good and plentiful. You can buy a small cheap breakfast and theres a bar. I liked the item exchange (where you can leave something and pick up other useful stuff for your onward journey)

FinlandWorst thing was probably the coffee, though all of Lyon had this problem, my Finnish taste buds didn't fit the place. So not too bad in the end. :D
Good location, good value. I like that it's location in the 9th arrondissement, I found it was close the places I wanted to see in the city, such as the Lyon Cathedral. It's also good value compared to the competition.

ItalyThe room was extremely hot, but it's because of this strange and unexpected heat... not the structure's fault...but maybe a fan could have helped ;)
Lovely atmosphere: you feel you're at home and you can stay in the common room working/reading/relaxing or meeting people feeling at ease. Loved having a kitchen but also a bar where you could order breakfast (the night before) and drinks. Despite being many people in the dorm, it didn't feel strange or annoying, 'cause everybody had a curtain on their bunkbeds and everybody was respectful of others. Really nice and welcoming staff!

NetherlandsThe AC had not been turned on in the dormitories, which meant that the room took a long time to cool down. And there were no clear rules about when the lights should be turned off, which meant people kept turning them on again, even when it was after midnight.
The check-in went very smoothly, the facilities were good and clean.

United StatesThe bathrooms were just ok, and as far as location goes I wish it had maybe been closer to downtown.
It’s super cute, really easy access to the metro and bus system, and they rented bikes which I didn’t use but I wish I had! Super awesome for travelers on a budget, nice kitchen with plenty of storage. The staff were all super friendly. If you like walking, it’s in great distance from the Basilica and old town (which was my favorite part of Lyon).
