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.).

AustraliaHasn’t got that community feel that other hostels have. Not the hostels fault but had some very inconsiderate hostel roommates - speaking on speaker phone late into the night even after being approached kindly and with care. I actually checked out a day early to try and get some proper sleep. Shower facilities were quite poor and neglected, could do with a makeover into proper cubicles instead of the flimsy and untrusting shower curtain.
Location was good. Check in easy, staff nice. Quirky in an old church but loved the character.

IrelandWhen I got there, there was a long wait to get checked in. I had to leave my bag and come back at night. Not the fault of the desk staff, I think the owners were just not prepared for the number of people on the day. It's not too cheap but nowhere is cheap anymore.
Good location. Small bit of a walk to Parnell St. The beds are great, lots of privacy in your own bunk unit. There's plenty of room and all light can be blocked off. Clean. Plenty of toilets and showers.

ItalyA fair bit of older people- not a problem but I expected more a young hostel vibe.... Often old men in the common areas so not a vibe to hang out in.
I really liked the location (although was about 15 min walk to centre), felt safe and simple to navigate. Staff were helpful with check in and bag drop etc. The room was quite spacious for 8 people which was a bonus- the beds nice and private too.

United StatesI didn't wish to leave a review, but so persistent! Maybe it is booking.com that is so insistent. The location was further out that I had hoped. The number of communications I received were overwhelming. Too many automatic texts and emails.
It was acceptable, and I would stay again if I needed to, and there were not many affordable options.

IrelandIt was cold-the heater was off, the tiny portable heater didn’t really heat up the room. There were 2 of us on a 6 bed dorm (3 double bunk pods) no need to put us in same bunk pods, more privacy would have been appreciated as the other girl was getting up at 6:20am Also no free towels which is a big minus.
I liked the privacy of the pods

United KingdomThe wooden frame bed pods, They don't do any justice for the presentation. Instead, it makes it more of a hazard when getting in and out of bed at night to go to the toilet at night. Price wise was a little on the high side, and they receptionist was a bit rude and unmanned during a short period of time.
The rooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable.
