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.).

TurkeyThey give you a blanket cover and towel at the hotel entrance. You have to put the cover on the blanket yourself. When leaving the hotel, you have to deliver the pillowcase, sheets and towels to the reception. In fact, they make you do some kind of House Keeping. I think this behavior is equivalent to treating all customers as potential thieves. Very sad indeed. Receptionist warned me because I didn't remove the blanket from its cover while delivering the items and said, "Look, I showed you a picture". That day, many people brought the blanket in the same way as I did. Since everyone brought it this way, I think this situation should be discussed by the hotel management. I have never seen such an application anywhere. Bathroom walls were very dirty. As far as I can see it is not cleaned hygienically. There were no papers in the bathroom when i arrived and then i had to ask. Also the bathroom door was making a lot of noise. All the guests in the room were very uncomfortable with this and I told this to the hotel staff, but the person who checked it said only the sound was very annoying and unfortunately nothing more was done.
Location was good. The beds were wide enough.

ItalyMy room was really hot and since I was placed under the rooftop, it was uncomfortable and even hotter. The bathroom was cleaned everyday but in the morning was a little bit too messy.
The location is great and the common area is ok.

PeruBad dirty room. The room that touched me 3.01 is used as a deposit of boxes inside the room. There is no elevator at the property. The terrible customer service to the guy with the blond beard from the front desk I asked him please to change my bed because I suffer from knees and he always gave me the upper bed on several occasions from the 3rd level to the 1st level without an elevator so that they could change me of bed which seems to me a bad service and a lack of respect given my situation. Otherwise the bed, bathroom and kitchen are fine. They should improve customer service.

United KingdomKing King hostel is situated on a street full of outdoor bars and restaurants, whose noise went on until the early hours. On top of that, our room was situated next to the stairs, with two access doors which creaked on opening and closing. The combination of the two above made a good nights sleep impossible. We did ask if it was possible to oil the hinges of the doors but nothing was done. The staff were not unfriendly but their priority is definitely not the comfort of their guests.
Easy walking distance to the centre

IrelandOne of the worst nights sleeping in a hostel. Couldn't sleep well not exactly due the noise downstairs but because 3 men woke up everybody at midnight when they checked in and were quite noisy. At 4:30am the same men woke up woke up everybody because they were talking very loud and even one of them was asking me for my bed number! It seems that reception mixed up the bedrooms. They should be more careful to avoid a similar situation. But still if people arrive very late (at midnight or after) they should respect that other are sleeping, but these people didn't have any consideration.
The location, the kitchen to prepare a meal. The staff was very friendly.

PakistanLUGGAGE STOLEN (THEFT FROM ROOM) I was here for Just one day. Upon checkinn i left my stuff in the lock with a big padlock. After 2 hrs i came back lock was broken. My passport and laptop was stolen from the safe. They failed to identify the thief even with a recorded video. Only person with Key Card could access the room. So it can be a roommate which were two at the time of checkinn OR a hostel employee. I cannot be sure as they never showed me the video of person who came after me. Long Story Short i had to travel back to my country to get a new passport and almost suffered 3000$ loss for this 30$ booking (for Dell Laptop being stolen and tickets to travel back). They did helped me to stay for free for 3 nights which i appreciate and the staff was nice. But this doesnt compensate the loss and trauma i suffered. They assured me they will contct back if they found anything which i am sure it wont be possible. Because nothing was done until my stay to catch the thief even with a video footage available.
The guy in evening and the girl (from Romania) were excellent
