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...).

United KingdomLovely hostel, safe and secure. You have your own secure bunk with its own door and key, where you can keep your belongings safe. The hostel is clean and well kept, and as bonus you get a freshly cooked breakfast, which they kindly adapted to my needs. There are two lovely cats living there, which is to keep in mind, but they won't bother you (I love cats, so I was super happy!) Special mention goes to Juan, who always goes above and beyond to make your stay as pleasant as possibile. Absolutely recommended!

ItalyWe liked everything, but it's not a super social hostel.
We liked everything. The guy working there and taking care of everything is super nice. We were in a private room and it was big and clean. Bed is comfy. Kitchen has everything you need. Location is also very good, in a safe area and super close to a big supermarket.

NetherlandsIt took me a moment to find it - I wish there was a bigger sign on the street. It is next to a black door and you need to walk up a flight of stairs (after ringing)
Comfortable beds. You can lock the entire bed cubical which was great for storing all of my stuff there, and it gave a good privacy. The breakfast was good, the staff were all really nice. The area seemed nice and secured to walk around alone for dinner.

GermanyThe garden is loud as there are air conditions running. The common area could use some cushions to get really cosy. Only next to the check-in are some free charging plugs. The water is cold, but as the weather is hot all year, that's very common. I liked it there
Staff is nice and speaks only Spanish. They have 2 lovely cats and hammocks to chill. There are some restaurants around, no touristic highlights are really near. It's clean and quiet at night. You can use the indrive app to get there from the airport for 12 dollar (express way) or 5 dollar (normal streets). There is a fruit market about 3 streets towards the center where 3 pineapples sell for 1 dollar. Highly recommend. If you sleep in a upper bunk bed in the dorm, you get fresh air while the lower bunk ones are fully enclosed when the door is shut

Hong KongThe water was often turned off so we had to go and ask for it to be switched on every time we wanted to shower, brush our teeth, or flush the toilet.
This was a great hostel with comfy beds, air conditioning and a delicious breakfast. They also did our washing for $5.

PanamaIt was hard to find the place. The hotel name is small. So trust the google maps and look for the hotel name in the middle of that building.
The location is amazing and the manager is very friendly. The place was clean and has all you need to have a good time.

IrelandNot a very social place to stay, but a good base to explore the city.
Great location, really nice area. Host is super helpful, although doesn’t speak English. He was very patient with my broken Spanish though and helped teach me! Great value for Panama City. We arrived really early from a night bus and we were allowed hang out in the common area until our room was ready. Very big and comfortable room with a huge bed. Nice breakfast included in the morning also.

Polandthere is no such thing
every single thing: Nelson, who care about us as we were a family, Maria, who cares about comfort and cleaning (she is a master of keeping the place absolutely tidy), breakfast that were made by Nelson and were super personalized, wifi very strong in every corner of the hostel, patio at the back side with hammocks, laundry service, location, very well equpipped kitchen, filtered water, coffee and tea all day long, so on, so on. Since 2 months of travelling, this is the first place without cocroaches and there is so clean everywhere, that you could eat from the floor. The best place I have been to across Asia and South America, so we have extended our stay here for another 5 days. Definately will come back, if we are back to Panama. Nelson is so welcoming and treats you the way that you feel special! We will miss you Nelson and Maria :)
