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...).

FranceEverything has to be bought, even to let your luggage in a safe space before checkin. The adaptator are not fitting int the plug on the room, we had to have a refund for it. The shower pression was so bad, that i had to stick to the wall to have water. The air conditionning wasn't working : too cold or too hot... can't be stopped.
The staff is very charming and helpfull. The location of the hotel is perfect to visit dublin and Temple bar !!

CanadaNone of the outlets in the hostel bunk beds were working. This only left 2 plug-ins for the entire room of 12 guests. The motion-sensor light in the bathroom would also not register if someone was in the shower so the lights would turn off every minute. The hand dryers didn’t work on our floor & towels were not provided so no way to dry your hands. Luggage lockers were also small. Very limited outlets in the dining area. Not a very “social” hostel. The window in our room was frosted & I would’ve loved to see the view from the higher floor.
The property is brand new & very clean. It was easy to find my way around. The bedding provided was nice. Every staff member I interacted with was absolutely amazing & extremely helpful with my late luggage arrival situation.

IrelandPlugs and light didn’t work beside bed. The plug on the wall outside the bunks had also been smashed by someone so was shattered all over the floor and unusable. Another person in the room told me (as we packed to check out, so too late for me) that he had been provided a power bank by staff when he checked in. The room was pretty thrashed when I arrived also, but that seemed to be down to 1 party staying in the room and not the hostels fault necessarily. Booking.com also told me I had a 6 bed female room but I was in a 4 bed mixed room with all males but that was fine, bar the 1 guy who had made such a mess!
Lovely new building in a great location. I dropped my bags before check in and the screen on the wall wouldn’t allow me to take a locker, so a very helpful member of staff helped me and did not charge me bag storage.

IrelandNot much. It is a brand new hostel, a few flaws are understandable.
The hostel is new in Dublin, location is central, has an enjoyable vibe and friendly personnel. Big hi 5 to Bryan at reception and Yemina in the Food & Beverage. The place is clean, has a kitchen to use at will and the Wi-Fi works really well. I recommend.
