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...).

AustraliaSomeone in the room was letting rip all night long. I know that was not the Hostel's fault but my word.. it was utterly Shameless. I think it was the lovely Japanese girl who was playing the 'innocent victim' card, but we all knew. Some decorum next time would have been nice. Perhaps a window in the roof would alleviate this issue next time.
Great location - good breakfast options - good washing facilities.

Julius was very welcoming. The bed was comfortable, rooms clean. A good breakfast cereal and toast available. So close to shops and pubs. Atm for those that need it on corner. Ashes pub and restaurant close by with great seafood, try the chowder. Met some lovely traveller's.

CanadaWe missed 2 superb evening dance opportunities when staff misadvised on the start time at the set dance presentation/demo at Nelligan’s pub and did not know about the music and dance (with a Gaelic dance champion) at another pub right beside that: So disappointing on our 2nd last night in Ireland! . Instant (vs “real” coffee in the a.m.) coffee. Tiny kitchen. Cramped room perhaps best made available to 2 rather than 3 travellers (replace the bunk Bed with a single bed). Fix bathroom tape so it doesn’t run so long amd waste so much water before turning off.
Very friendly staff. Nice sitting room (but must be crowded when hostel is full). Great use of an old building. Good location.

United StatesThere were some water supply issues with our room, but we were warned in advance and had access to other bathrooms if needed.
The location was excellent. Everything was in easy walking distance. The staff and operator were very friendly and helpful. The kitchen was well supplied and would be ideal if you want to prepare your own food. There was plenty of room to hang out and talk.

United KingdomThe mattress was pretty uncomfortable and the bathroom had seen better days. But the cleanliness was still high, and real bedding was provided, so it wasnt really a big deal.
I really liked the lovely kitchen which was well stocked and had a lot of utensils in, and felt like a nice place to cook (unlike many hostels!) Also the garden/small outdoor area was a nice feature. Good location close to all the town centre but on a quiet street.
