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.).

SingaporeBut I have to say, I wish it was warmer. It was a little annoying having to walk through the cold cold lobby area from the hit shower to get into the room. One of the toilets didn't lock properly. 😳 The washing machines are super small (but cheap), and actually not bad if only staying a few days.
Almost perfect honestly. I was tempted to go back on my last couple of days. Clean showers with body wash, shampoo,..... and conditioner provided!!! (No one ever provides conditioner), also hairdryers in the shower rooms. Tour guide maps for tourists available in many languages, check in allowed roughly anytime, breakfast provided of toast, ham, eggs, cheese, jam, peanut butter, cereal and coffee (sounds basic but perfect for me). The rooms felt cosy, where the hostel beds were in a room of there own, mini fridge in the room as well. The floor heating is bliss. The staff were sweet. I liked the fact there's a dinning area, so you can bring back convenience food to heat up, etc. Or make new friends! Good system of clean your own dishes! Cold and hot drinking water always available. Perfect location!

Czech RepublicThe hallway could be cleaner
Good place in the city center, near everything. Close to the subway and airport bus station (should go every 30 mins). The room was not that big, I guess standard size for Seoul. The room was clean. Small bathroom, but clean. Comfortable beds. We didnt hear any noises from outside. Reception open 24/7, located on the 15th Floor. Hot water, wifi was working, heated. Nice and helpfull staff (english speaking). We stayed only for 1 nignt, so cant comment on the quality of breakfast.

United StatesShower head sprayed in middle of bathroom (got floor and toilet wet), i.e., no separate shower enclosure. Staff was adequate, but not overly helpful. If you asked questions about local attractions, how to get somewhere, how far away something was, they seemed annoyed and would say look it up on the internet.
Very convenient location. Breakfast included cereal, eggs, toast, coffee machine. Wifi was good. We had a family room for 4 people which was good for this price point. Reasonably quiet.

JapanEverything was really good but perhaps the bathroom lock could be better taken care of.
The staff were really kind, helpful and welcoming. Everything went smooth and really great. Also the location of the place is amazing, right in the center of Myeongdong where all the food places and sightseeing places are close by. When I was there there was a food festival going on right outside the hostel.
