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...).

New Zealandthe rooms were really hot during the day but also at night. most of the guests I spoke to were feeling sleep deprived due to the heat. there’s no natural airflow and the ceiling fan is weak. a few big box fans or AC in the rooms would make such a difference. noise goes until midnight so bring earplugs if you want to sleep before them (although staff are very strict about the noise stopping at this time).
social hostel, good place to make friends and opportunity to party if you want to. age group is early 20s-30s. the Wi-Fi is strong and I liked that there was a kitchen there (although you can’t drink your own alcoholic beverages while the bar is open). coffee and OJ was so good in the morning! staff are friendly and helpful. lots of organized group activities you can book the hostel.

Everything. The pool, people, places to chill. Been traveling for 4 months and I had the best time here out of all my hostels. Staff are amazing and do everything they can to ensure you have fun and you’re included in everything. rooms and shared bathrooms are a decent size, enough room for everyone and their bags.

PolandNo key to the room a guy came to our room at 4am. Deposit for bad sheet. Kitchen - equipment old, quite dirty, there was no hot water so it was impossible to fight with microbes. It was necessary to go to reception to get the plates. There was no lightening to make the fire.
The hostel looks quite fancy with decent standard, each night there is some entertainment event. The swimming pool was awesome. There was also a lot of different trip possibilities.

IrelandThe room had quite a number of bugs in it, including a baby gecko. The showers being located far from our room so we had to go through the entire hostel in a towel to use them.
Staff and guests all seemed very friendly. Loads of daily activities to get involved in if you want. The pool is small but very nice!

NetherlandsThe common kitchen was really dirty. The cleaners cleaned it every morning but the travelers didn’t really care. The location is pretty far from the beaches.
The WiFi is strong enough for the people who work remotely. The swimming pool is really nice to relax and cool off. They organise nice daily events to connect with other travelers, like make your own pizza night. After 12 the music stops and people who want to party need to leave so there’s quiet hours for the people who need or want to get up early. It was close to the supermarket and shops.

NetherlandsI was staying in a dorm and during the night multiple times people would turn on the lights or talk very loud or both. But I think I was a bit unlucky with my roommates because I heard that another dorm room was not like this. It was a bit frustrating with a jet lag and lack of sleep.
It’s a pretty hostel with a good breakfast and a very nice pool. I had a great time during the day but it’s also a bit of a party hostel.

GermanyThe beaches are around 15 minutes footbalk from the hostel (but honestly the pool compensates as the huge waves afer some time can be really annoying). Plus the old mattresses are being changed for super comfy new ones right now.
I loved staying in this hostel! I ended up staying there for a week even though I only had 4 weeks of visa in Mexico haha. The pool area is amazing and also easy to connect as people are forced to get away from their smartphones. ;-) The different activities are a lot of fun, loved especially the beer pong (that unfortunately not many hostels have these days). The team is great, it was always clean and the all you can eat breakfast for 80 Pesos only is unbeatable. There's everything you need - a bar, free filtered water, foosball and billiard table, hammocks, in the dorms curtains, en-suite bathroom, a provided towel etc.
