Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

PortugalIt's hard to open the main door with the key, luckily the staff were there to help me, but if it happened during the night, it might cause difficulties.
Great value for money, much better than I expected. The kitchen and dining room were spotless clean, and it was quiet.

Portugalthe employees weren’t very polite and didnt give the right instructions, you have to pay extra charges for keys and more charges if you want early check in and then when you do the checkout they supposedly give you the money back, but then when were leaving there wasn’t anyone there and we lost that money. also when you go call the number of the hostel they don’t pick up, only if you call many times
good bathrooms and the bedroom was pretty decent

PortugalI booked the room at 11h30pm and arrive on site 20 minutes later. Nobody was there. I waited outside until one of the staff opened the gate and almost yell at me askingwhat I was doing there? Long story short, I had to wait 20 minutes outside because he couldn't find my reservation in the system. I gave him my driver license and he said that he couldn't use it as a legal piece of ID. I finally got into my room. Was supposed to be a 6bed. Turned out it was 9! They gave me the top bed, almost no clearance from the sealing! I did not sleep the whole night..a very bad experience is was. I am definitely asking for a refund and I am reporting this incident to booking.com
The location was perfect

SingaporeDo not be fooled by the photos, you may be put up in a drastically different room (which I was) and be expected to accept it as if nothing was wrong. Despite this, Booking.com will not entertain any requests for refunds because the value of the accommodation is not large enough, and there are existing negative reviews of this hostel which *you* should be aware on instead of relying on the photos uploaded by the hostel. I checked out one night early as I could not stand the noise (made by the hostel staff as late as 2am in the night) but there was no acknowledgement or inquiry as to why I wanted to check-out. I made a formal complaint to the hostel via the Booking.com app but received no reply at all. Booking.com is also extremely cavalier in addressing your concerns and heavily favours their listing partners. On to the bad points: There are 9 beds crammed into a store room and the only source of ventilation is one window. The space between your bed and the bed above you is so narrow that you can barely stretch your arm out. You are put in a room with the hostel staff who have no regard or respect for your sleeping hours. The room smells bad, the hostel staff's belongings are strewn on the floor, and it doesn't appear that the room is cleaned (dust all over the floor). The staff also appear new and rotate regularly, and have little to no training on how to run a hostel.
The only saving grace of this terrible hostel is the large toilets.

BelgiumThe fact that I was sleeping at the ground floor, basically at the staff quarters. 3 times! other customers were knocking at the door of my room, because they were searching for employees, in order for them to check out. Checking out is only possible at 11 am. This is way too late. Many people need to check out at 8 am or earlier. This is a lame system. People basically need to check out 1 day before they leave the premises.
Restelo is a calm neighbourhood, surrounded by embassies and villas. The location gives you a nice opportunity to discover Bélem. The price for the hostel was low, but the quality was low as well.
