Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

GreeceWe had to make our own beds, by carrying bed linen and towels from reception for our stay in the hostel. It was not that bad, but would prefer to skip that part.
There was a problem with the elevator in some point, but the hostel took care of it so fast, very impressive and convenient. There was an area to leave our luggages after check out for free. Nice and cosy resting area, next to the reception. Friendly staff. Next to transportation, exactly out side of the hostel. 15 minutes away on foot from the central station.

PortugalNot very clean. Beds and sheets were not the cleanest and in some parts of the sheets you could see stains. Some red and others dark. You have to pick up sheets and towels in the reception and make your own bed when you arrive. This was something that we did not expect when we arrived and it could be annoying especially if you are coming late after a big trip.
Well located.

GermanyThe shower with only a curtain and a toilet sink right nest to shower with no plastic barrier... The water is gathered on the floor, almost covers your ankle, when you take a shower. it was not convenient at all, and shower curtain was too narrow to protect the sides and too short to protect the rest of the floor from poring water..., It was not possible to go to the toilet after one of us took a shower, because of the floor half-covered by water, and the stick in the shower did not clean it well enough...
Bed were comfortable, the room was quite big. the location and price are good. Tram stop just in front of the hostel, 2 blocks from it there is an amazing ramen place (for lunch or dinner, but it has no take-away).

United KingdomThe receptionist is not 24 hours. And the electric switch in my room is not located for each bed. My bed was on top and you can imagine I have no electric switch to charge my phone at my bed, but there are 2 electric switches for the bed below. My charging cable is not long enough to get the switch below. Its a bit annoying that I have to sit on the kitchen side in the middle of the night just to charge my phone. Also, I didnt find the kitchen their provide in the room helpful, its a quite useless. People prefer to get food outside rather then cooking inside the room which could potentially cause smoke smell in the room.
In general, the hostel is clean. Has nice receptionist
