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.).

HungaryThe kitchen area is very basic.
It is a cheap hostel, but this doesn’t mean it was not good. The bunk beds were comfortable, the shower was hot and nice and it has a good living room area. The bar is next door, and you have a café and a shop on the other side of the street.

PolandThe toilets were on the floor below, far from the room, too few chairs, tables and kitchen equipment for the number of people, poor voltage in the charging sockets, quite a small number of showers and in one of them there was very little space, the kitchen was not very clean. It would be worth putting curtains on the beds for more privacy and giving the possibility to rent locker padlocks (we had our own padlocks but they were not big enough).
The location was good, the staff was helpful and the beds were comfortable.

United KingdomThe toilets need decorating. Better furniture in the kitchen, a couple of hobs and kitchen equipment could make this so much nicer. The lounge is quite small, but nice and bright with big windows. Some pictures, maps, local information and tourist leaflets would make a difference. Could be better very easily! Similar price to other hostels with much smarter communal areas and better kitchens. Please put a lock on the front door (keys or code) and lock at least at night. This was the only hostel available at short notice and it's clear why it is not first choice. It has potential though. The issues were obvious from previous reviews, hopefully the owners will be able to improve it.
On arrival the check in was easy, a friendly member of staff from the adjoining bar (part of the same business) confirmed our booking and showed us the layout and our rooms. The dorm room was clean, towels, sheets and bedding were fine and each bed had a USB socket for charging and a lamp. Good size lockers (you need a padlock). The location is convenient for visiting Skye and the West Highlands. There are decent shops and take aways/ bars or hotels serving food. Bus and train stops, petrol station and parking all nearby. Not Scotland's prettiest town, but good views across to Skye from the nearby waterfront.

The staff was really good and friendly. Since we were on a road trip we reached quite late and the check in was last at 10PM but we requested so the guy stayed there till 11.15 which was really big of an adjustment and I really appreciate that.
