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.).

FranceThe building is old and dirty, not very welcoming place. The blanket were very smelly, but uncomfy, lot of mosquitoes. The place overall looks messy, and would need a refresh cleaning. Happy we stayed only one night and not more.
The location is good, free water. Owner is nice and upgraded us to a private room with bathroom (we originally booked a room with shared bathroom). People in the hostel were friendly

NetherlandsThe beds were to hard
Nice & big roofed outdoor space with tables, benches and cooking facility, it served as a community space. Relaxed & easy atmosphere, everything could be arranged easy with the helpfull owner. Low budget, one of the cheapest hostels in town. Location was at easy walking distance from the most lively streets and the great evening food market in the Old town of Vientiane.

United StatesOn booking they say breakfast included. In Actuallity it's not. One thing is they say it is available between 7:30 and 8:30 am. Most travelers sleep in til at least 8:00am. I was up to get breakfst but there was no one else up and there was no food to make your own brkfst. This same thing happened both mornings that I stayed there. So they should not include that on their site. Or they should be responsible and actually provide breakfast.
They were accommodating for me and gave me a private space when I asked. I was not able to sleep in the dormitory.

súper friendly staff, they helped me a lot with a SIM card, booking a bus and getting breakfast late. private room was big, hostel located in a very quiet area

MyanmarThe separate bathroom may lack some comfort, but it offers a budget-friendly option for those looking to save money.
It feels like a beautiful blend of comfort and support, creating a sense of belonging. The act of sharing meals fosters connections, as we gather around the table, exchanging stories and laughter. These moments become cherished memories, rich with flavors and emotions that linger long after the last bite.

FranceRoom was very dirty, only one bathroom for the whole hostel and it was dirty and with shower inside so worst. Everything was somehow broken, window was blacked out and not openable. We felt uncomfortable there and left as soon as we could. Trash outside. This is why it is cheap.
Large room, okayish bed. Calm neighbourhood.
