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 KingdomHot water.
Could have done with some juice maybe and a slightly better selection of breakfast items but it was 14 nicker a night so you can't ask for too much! There was a guy in our dorm room who constantly farted and his farts had a long duration. That said, they weren't that smelly so I was ok with it. The showers were often cold so my penis looked very small in them. However, they did heat up after 20 minutes so that was all good too! Overall, a fabulous location with a brilliant bakery underneath at street level - I recommend the pistachio cream croissants. 😋 I would happily stay here again, because it was great value although I did find myself questioning the life choices that I have made, to make me stay in a 14 quid a night room. 🤨

GermanyThe hostel is inside a building that may seem sketchy and so is the elevator. But the room was completely fine. Towels need to be paid for and the bathroom is shared for both men and women, and it is located outside the room.
The breakfast was simple but good. The hostel is inside a building that may seem sketchy, but the hostel in itself is great. The staff was very nice and helpful. The lockers are within the room and there is an individual light and a power outlet by the side of each bed. I got the 6-bed female room and it was very chill, I felt completely comfortable during my trip. The location is also great, very close to the city center and public transportation. But it is not exactly in the center, so it is great if you don't want to hear the noise on a Saturday night.

RomaniaThe heating did not work in my room so it was cold. But after I communicated the issue with them, they placed me in a different room with good heating and I was lucky because it was a family room with no one in it, just me. The thing which could have been better was the bathroom, shower room. The shower place was the same for women and men. The toilet was separate without sink, weirdly positioned. Even with the mentioned things, I was satisfied with my stay at the hostel and didn't have problems at all.
The free breakfast and wifi. The rooms were clean. The location was good. The little lamps for each bed is useful. The beds are very good for a little more tall people as they can sit on it wothout bending. Also, comfortable beds and good safe for valuables.

ColombiaBreakfast was terrible. They would be much better off if they didn’t offer it at all. It was only a few slices of cucumber, ham and regular bread. To be advertised as complimentary breakfast, it was a true disappointment. Beds were also quite uncomfortable.
The location is absolutely perfect and the staff is very nice

AustraliaThe lift was a bit scary, and the look of the building from the outside wasn’t nice. Just note it costs 2 euros for a towel.
The property was very conveniently located, just a short walk to the main town square. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the free breakfast and kitchen facilities was a nice touch. I was lucky to have really nice roommates too!

MaltaJust the view of the place from the outside and the lift.
The location of the property was perfect for those who would love to stay near the market square. The bus stop is also 50m away from the hostel. Although the facade looks old, the place was well-maintained from the inside and the staff are cheerful and friendly.

AustraliaThe beds were more uncomfortable than most hostels I have been in, because of a dip in the mattress. Not sure if that was just the bed I had. The showers also smelled a bit, but not too bad

PolandBeds are ok but mattress is too thin and hard for me. So if you're like 195/105 man the bad could be not that comfortable for you. But if you're small and lightweight, you'll be ok. The nearby street is pretty noisy. About 50% of trams in Kraków come through it. So if one will stay in summer and the windows will be open, the outside traffic could be a bit disturbing.
The location is very good. 7 mins walk to Galeria Krakowska and main railway station. Very close to city centrum. Breakfast included.
