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...).

MexicoI was moved my second night to other room in which the beds had bedbugs so I asked to move to another bed, they kindly did even it was late, but unfortunately the new bed also had bedbugs... I planned just to stay awake all nite in the common area... at the end they found a bed for me without bedbugs after around 2hours and a half. (other guests also complained that night about the same issue)
The location is very good and the staff was friendly (volunteers), they give you breakfast that's a big plus and u are near to restaurants, the 5th avenue and transport.

United KingdomI stayed in the hostel part not the private rooms. The shared toilets were bad, no loo roll and no running water on first day. It's close to 5th Ave so you can hear the noise until 3 or 4am.
They looked after my bags while I dived on my last day. There is a roof terrace area. WiFi worked most of the hostel.

Ukraineit's a filthy place, my room smelled above my bed, an air conditioner could not be turned off and blew cold air. I couldn't sleep there because it was cold like in the Arctic, they don't give blankets, only thin sheet I stayed up all night and just sat in the common area because it was impossible to be in that smelly room under the cold air

ItalyThe staff is really unpolite and try to scam you in any way, they charged me an extra fee while paying, I asked for a contact to organise some tours and the one they sent me had the prices double than normal, and while I tried to extent my staying they asked me a higher price than the app. The room is ugly, dirty and uncomfortable. The breakfast was the worst part, there was basically nothing and every day they had less. I highly not recommend this place. One afternoon without telling anyone they decided to make some works a
