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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

PolandWeak light in the room, not sure if shared bathroom is only one per each sex, wondering if that would be enough when hostel is fully booked. An advice - don’t use double power outlets. As hostel is for foreigners, using often adapters, it may not be possible to put two adapters next to each other at the same time when it is a double power outlet
Kind and helpful staff, quiet, nice and equipped kitchen, available car park

AustraliaNothing - all good!
Cannot praise our host Pippa (owner) and Ramona enough. Went way beyond what we could expect in helping us after our plans had been derailed by unforeseen circumstances (an emu actually). Apart from offering assistance and somewhere to sleep, the genuine friendliness with which we were treated was very much appreciated. The establishment itself, although technically a backpackers' accommodation, was absolutely fabulous leaving many hotels we've stayed at to shame. From the elegant old building lovingly refurbished to the simple but caringly appointed rooms. We subsequently stayed another 2 nights in different rooms, all of which provided lovely comfy beds and the necessary mod cons. The shared bathrooms were scrupulously clean, the lounges welcoming and the outdoor area was a pleasant little spot for some morning sun albeit the car parking area. Location could not be more central (main street) yet security was well managed and there was no noise disturbance (inside or outside) at night. We indulged in delicious breakfasts at Fleurs (2 doors down) and it was an easy little walk to the foreshore or shopping. It's a credit to everyone involved that such an impressive building is being faithfully preserved for us to enjoy. If you'd like to experience a slice of heritage; some old-world charm; and don't mind the odd squeaky floorboard - make this gem your next stop when visiting Geraldton.
