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.).

ItalyI had an amazing stay at Fable hostel, I can only recommend it! Ervin and Micqua are incredible hosts, the vibe that surrounds this place is truly magical and I was very sad to leave. The bed is comfy, the whole place is really clean and in a quiet street, but still well located. Paliton beach is only a few minutes away walking. Truly special!

DenmarkThey pretty much do everything right here and know exactly what you need when backpacking so all details are thought of. The hostel is located only a few minute walk from Paliton beach and with several food options in walking distance in case you don’t want to head into town. The dorm rooms are some of the nicest I ever stayed in. Rooms are huge with so much space for luggage and beds are comfortable with curtains, own light etc. shared bathrooms are also nice and big and always clean. They serve a little but nice breakfast included in the room price and there’s real coffee also. The staff is absolutely amazing and so helpful with everything. It’s a small hostel and feels really homey and very social in a non party way so it’s easy to meet people either in the common space or by joining the family dinners.

FranceAbsolutely nothing!
I was looking for a social (not party) hostel, and the concept of a family dinner really attracted me. I stayed one night and was amazed by everything! The rooms are spacious, clean, comfy, and have everything you need. The shared areas (toilets, showers, etc.) are just as great—they’re spacious, very clean, and the showers are hot with excellent water pressure. And the staff—OMG, the staff is AMAZING! They are so friendly and incredibly helpful. They know the island well and always have great advice for anything you need. I immediately wanted to extend my stay, but unfortunately for me, they were fully booked. That said, I ended up staying 15 more days on the island and was still able to join the family dinners whenever I wanted, as well as the parties and karaoke nights. I had the most incredible stay on this island thanks to their company, and I will be eternally grateful to them.

United KingdomMy only criticism was that the pillows were not the comfiest.
We loved our stay at Fable hostel. The rooms themselves were huge with lots of storage and living space. All communal facilities were kept clean and tidy and we loved the social space! The staff were incredible. Super fun bunch who gave lots of brilliant recommendations and joined us for family dinner every night.

The rooms are incredibly spacious, community here is awesome, a peaceful feeling from the moment you arrive and are offered a drink, the fluffy dogs, the team working here. Free breakfast and hot showers. Also love the family meals and nights out, Halloween was awesome! A lot basically.
