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.).

BrazilStaff was really friendly - shoutout to rockstar Valeria! Facilities were good, everything clean and organized. Comforter and pillow were very good, which makes a huge difference when in need of rest and in a colder weather, like we got. Location is absolutely perfect! The downside: bathroom is not heated and its bins were always overflowing, because they’re small ones. And we ran out of toilet paper and had to go out to get some. Overall, great value for money!

United KingdomWe had no towels in our private room, and quite often (early mornings and evenings) there was a lot of drilling happening somewhere causing a lot of noise. We were out most the day and rarely saw reception manned. Got to hold the shower head as there's no holder for it on the wall.
The hostel is in an excellent location. It's very cheap and the beds are good. It is good value for money. We checked in late but the self service for check in is good. It's a small hostel with only five rooms.

GermanyThe mixed room and the toilets had some lingering odour. The only girls room was really clean but very small. It was too bad but it could've been better. The beds are comfortable but very squeaky. Would prefer them bolted to the wall or replaced with wooden versions. I slept on the top bunk and whenever I turned around the entire bed was shaking.
The rooms were big, common area was bright and kitchen was well equipped. There are washing machines and personal lockers available on checkin. Every person gets a card for their room along with codes for main door which made us feel more secure. There is one dedicated "only girls" room in case you prefer that. It is very centrally located close to the tourist spots and main pickup points of tours around the city like Auschwitz or Zakopane.

ItalyThe doors to the rooms were sometimes hard to deal with because they open with an electronic badge that didn't work smoothly most of the time.
The hostel is amazing idk why it doesn't have many reviews. The beds are very clean, the blankets are new and fluffy, there are lockers and you can rent the lock from them if you don't have one. The design is cozy and the kitchen is clean. There are about 4 showers and 2 bathrooms and they were all clean, and the staff were really nice and helpful. It's also very very close to the old town and supermarket.

TurkeyIf you arrive at the facility in the morning, you have no chance of getting in. There was no one there before 9 o'clock anyway, so we had to wait in the cold for 1 hour. Coincidentally, there were people coming out, they opened the door and we were able to enter the stairwell. Since there is no one working before 9 o'clock, send the codes before the guests arrive so that no one's butt freezes outside.

Czech RepublicEven during november, it was hot at the room I had....well rather than hot, very bad air.. Asked a guy there (who probably been staying there long term) if we can do some air change, he allowed a window open for a while than shut. He was eating some smelly food there, whole room sting after. Not very good noise insulation. Bring earplugs! Other than that nice. Would come again.
Sweet location. Very friendly lady at reception desk. Smooth check-in. Clean common area, dorm room, shower etc. OK. Comfy bed, pillow.
