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...).

AustraliaThe only thing that could be improved is the pool - cloudy water (couldn’t read the “Savage” written down the middle). Enjoyed our stay!
The suites are very spacious and modern. Great location, everything at your fingertips. But still quiet and relaxing.

AustraliaYes the private rooms are small (as advertised) but the two of us made it work. The only downside was the pool, a bit cloudy and shallow.

SwedenThe only thing I could have wished for is for the luggage area to be bigger, everyone has their luggage in small cabinets and it was quite annoying when you got the top cabinet and your bag is heavy so you have to carry it down anytime you need something and lay it out over the floor and then the room is very small so other people cannot walk pass you / it becomes annoying.
The staff is friendly and the shared bathroom and shower is clean! The pool area is super nice and it is superclose to the beach and just 10 minutes walk to the party street which is perfect

United KingdomDepending on the dorm, your in lockers are quite far away from the room. Could be a little better if they were in or outside the room. Safe at my bed was not working, asked for this to be fixed but it was not. No big issue as I did just use the lockers
The pool, the view. The staff were amazing and went out their way to help. Food and shakes downstairs were amazing, and good value. Location was perfect, right in the centre of everything. Comfy bed and good places for storage.

GermanyThe AC could be less loud. In addition, the motion sensor light either went out so quickly that you needed your cell phone light or it was on constantly, making it difficult to sleep at night.
The location of this hostel is awesome. The beach is a few meters away. Everything you need is nearby (restaurants, cafés, massage studio etc.). The beds are comfortable with a lot of space for your belongings. You even have a rooftop bar with a pool.
