Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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...).

AustraliaThe staff weren't super helpful with advice on tours or things to do around Athens. Actually, zero help! But they were friendly enough. There weren't any non-smoking communal areas to meet other travellers. The rooms at the front were really noisy, and for the first couple of nights, they were smelly from the garbage bins below. Easy fix by shutting the windows and putting on AC. But not everyone likes AC...
It was in a great location near the metro station, and some good convenience stores. There was an amazing Souvla restaurant across the road. The room and beds were clean

They even offer a laundry service for 5 euros as long as you aren't checking out the next day. The place is really close to the metro. Acropolis is just one station away!

SpainI cannot find anything I didn’t like….. for a hostel it’s a really good value for money. It’s also 1 minute away from the underground… so, even thought it’s not located in the main centre, you can get to there by public transport so fast and cheap.
The cleanliness and slight privacy thanks to the curtains. But also the inclusion to a WhatsApp group with the other guests… I reckon it’s a brilliant idea. Thanks for everything.

ItalyThere weren’t enough soap so i had to buy from outside. Also you should tell about the other guests that they should be quiet during night time. Woke up many times during night.
The staff was very polite and helpful, it was also very clean. The location is perfect like a 2 min walk from Neos Kosmos metro station. For us budget travellers i think it might be the best choice in Athens. Met a few nice people too.

IndiaThe elevator is switched off from late evening till the morning. Hence, if you have heavy luggage its quite a struggle to carry it up and down. There is no bathroom on the 4th floor, so you have to go to the 3rd or 2nd floor for it. However, there are enough bathrooms on those floors and they are clean. They have a communication policy via Whatsapp or Email only, no telephone calls. I personally prefer having a quick call rather than leaving everything to messages. However, the team did reply to all queries on Whatsapp.
The hostel is extremely close to the Metro station (barely 1 mins walk) which is 2 stops away from the main area of Athens. It also has a few bakeries, restaurants and a supermarket a minute away. Because the hostel is not in the main area it is also considerably cheaper than other hostels. I would rate the location 9/10. In the dormitory, I liked that each bunk bed had privacy curtains. My dormitory room was located on the top floor, so we had a large balcony as well. My room had glass sliding doors, so there was ample sunlight, which was very welcome. They also give you a fresh sheet to cover your bed and a blanket, which makes it feel fresh.
