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.).

AustriaThe sleeping room was alright, the toilet door was broken though. I did not use the lockers because I would have had to pay 2€ everytime I used them. The window in my room was broken, it got a little cold during the night.
The staff always helped when there were questions. The sleeping room was alright. I liked the kitchen because they have a kettle, microwave, a plug in stove, pans, spoon, knifes and more stuff, they also have a fridge. There is not mich but it was enough to cook. The Hostel is very very well located.

United KingdomUnfortunately there is no lift, which makes it difficult for people with mobility problems. No kitchen facilities - kettle, cups, plates, cutlery. We were told that it is because there are people, who misuse or steal such items. Perhaps security cameras may be helpful or just do not mix asylum seekers with decent tourists. Opposite the hostel there was a hotel with lights on until late midnight. That was not helpful for hostel tourists, which after an exhausting sightseeing day need a good night sleep. Perhaps having curtain blinds may help to resolve the issue.
Very good location. Extremely kind, friendly and helpful staff. Tidy and clean rooms.

SerbiaThe shared kitchen space is actually on the roof and there's only a fridge and microwave. Luckily I had a plate and cutlery of my own. Also I think there were bed bugs because I have a bunch of red itchy spots on my body..
The staff was very nice and understanding and let me switch (with no extra fee) to a girl's dorm that was on a lower floor. The people were nice and friendly.

ArgentinaThe area is one of the best but weirdly enough, it looks sketchy . As a solo female traveler I didn't like some of the streets close to the hotel but it was only at night that I didn't feel comfortable but most of the time I was with the girls I met at the hotel so it was ok. At the last floor of the hotel, they are sometimes drunk foreigner guys so just stick to your floor!
The location is great, it is at walking distance from the Acropolis and from many bars and restaurants. The receptionist ( sorry don't know his name but he was from Palestine) was very friendly and useful. He answered to all of my questions and gave me good tips about the area. I had only girls in my dormitory and we got along pretty well and we visited the town all together and went to the restaurant too.
