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...).

ChinaGyeongju is my first stop during my travel in Korea. I take a bus arriving here from Incheon airport directly. The hotel's location is convenient that can easily get to here following staff's instructions. Staff are friendly and quite helpful on everything. Hotel offers good breakfast. I love Gyeongju's rich Buddhism culture as it is the ancient capital city of Silla.

SlovakiaOn the booking it is stated that washing machine is available, however that’s not true. I ask the staff and I was told that waching machine is available only from 11-3pm, but in this time no guests were allowed to be in the accommodation due to the cleaning.
The accommodation was great, breakfast simple but enough. You could choose from toast or cereals and you could even make eggs. The room was a little bit cold but you could use heating pads in your bed.

The place was very clean. They provided a fantastic breakfast. You can even cook your own eggs! One of the best hostels. The beds were private with black out screens to keep the light out. Plenty of showers, so you did not need to wait. The staff was very welcoming!

New ZealandI only stayed one night but would have liked to stay longer. It is a great place if you want to settle in for a few days. Comfortable, clean and quiet for some quality rest after lots of walking. Close to the bus stop and local attractions. The kitchen is great and has everything you need for cooking. The breakfast was surprisingly worthwhile too.

SingaporePersonally I find the bedroom really small. I stayed in a 4 person hostel and we can barely walk.
Cosy and modern dining area and bedroom. Love that they included breakfast - egg, toast, coffee, fruit juice. Simple and good enough. Best of all, it’s very clean!

AustraliaThere could be more space to put your belongings in the shower (clothes/towel etc)
Hostel was walking distance to the main sights, and a short bus ride from the Express bus terminal. Note the train station next to the hostel on Maps is not the main train station. Pods were comfortable and spacious enough, the kitchen was the best I had in Korea, and the bathrooms were clean with plenty of facilities.

AustraliaNothing besides someone turning the aircon in the room to 24 C at night which made it pretty hot inside but that’s just personal preference as I like to put my aircon back at home at 17 C
Great location, easy to use facilities, free breakfast every morning, beds were comfy with privacy curtains.

BelgiumThe kitchen where the breakfast is served is rather small, so it was a bit of juggling around before we could eat comfortably, but it worked out.
The room was clean and had everything we needed. The shared bathroom was on our floor which was perfect and complete with all a girl could wish for. Breakfast was great: toast, cereals, Nutella, 2 jams, butter, coffee and tea, several juices and we could cook our own eggs.

SwedenVery small room, it was hard to pass each other if someone was standing in the room. We were 4 people in a 8 sqm room, so I turned on the A/C at night, but someone turned it off, so the oxygen completely left the room.
Clean and it was easy to find. Close to bus stop to all major tourist sites. It was nice that you could cook an egg for breakfast and in general that the kitchen was clean
