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...).

PolandThere might be lines to the toilet/shower when the hostel is full but since I was the only guest in the room during my visit, I didn't experience any problems with it. The entrance is a bit narrow and you have to walk up the stairs to get to the rooms and the common area. Just pointing it out, as it might be a problem for people with limited mobility.
The hostel is located right in the old town, just a short walk from the sea. There are shops, cafes, restaurants, and a doll theater nearby. The wifi worked fine. The towel was included in the price, which was super helpful and appreciated. The room was quite cold when I came in but the heating worked fantastic so soon it warmed up. The kitchen is small but the equipment provided was enough to cook some food. The price was marvelous! In general, it was a nice stay.

IrelandThe shower had black mold, there was no proper door to the bathroom or the toilet (which are outside the room, on the stairway and anyone could enter/see), just like a pvc foldable door with no lock. There were no curtains and the light and the sounds from the bar in front came into the room. The reception was on the other side of the building and no security of any sort at the hostel entrance so 2 people not staying in the hostel made their way up to the common area.
Location was excellent. AC worked great, bed was comfortable. The receptionist was very kind and helpful allowing me to check in earlier as it was raining and I was soaked. Locker available. The room was clean

BelgiumVery small bathroom and no lock on the shower.
Very nice cheap hostel. Check-in was a bit difficult as it's in a different location than the actual hostel but the communication was clear. Check-out consisted of dropping of the key in a letter box. Rooms are clean and big. I slept in the lower bunk bed which was very close to the upper one but still very comfortable. AC available. Little shelves at the bed to put your essentials such as glasses. Plugs right beside the bed. Storage under the bed that couldn't be locked and additional storage in the hallway available with key. The bathroom was clean but extremely small and cramped. It was not possible to lock the door of the shower so you just had to hope people saw and heard someone was in the shower. There was a kitchen and fridge on the upper floor however I didn't use it. Nice central location with a lot of restaurants and bars close by.

ItalyThe storage under the bed was dirty with cigarettes and trash from the previous guest. I totally recommend the staff to check this as well as the shared areas/ bathrooms since the cleaning conditions could be improved to go accordingly to the accomodation experience.
The staff was really nice and the location is perfect since you're already in the city center, which connects you everywhere. The kitchen is small but cozy and there are great books for you to relax and enjoy while going to the beach.

United KingdomFront door of property was open overnight which other people had mentioned but didn’t concern us too much just would’ve been more at peace if it was. Only 1 toilet and shower for 8 people so sometimes felt cramped and we had to wait. Noisy with bar music outside since it is centre of the old town. Calmed down at maybe 1am
Clean rooms, comfy beds, great location in centre of old town

PolandThe most uncomfortable thing was the bed - i was sleeping on the lower bunk bed and it's so low, i cannot even sit straight at my bed. I think there would be no problem with upper bed, but the lower one is a killer. Besides that - a bathrooms are a bit weird and may be problematic, when the hostel is full. Besides that, everything else was nice :)
Very good localization, in the perfect spot in the old town of Zadar. Rooms were clean and there was air conditioning. Really nice common space with a kitchen and a spot to just sit and relax.

FranceIssues with security, we left our bags as advised by the receptionist and nobody was watching them. My laptop and camera were in it and anyone could steal everything. Issues with the lockers because the staff mixed the keys. Last but not least, the main door to the rooms, bathroom and kitchen is always open, day and night, so anyone can get in and steal anything. Be cautious!
Central hostel, really comfortable, kind staff.
