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.).

New ZealandThe staff didn’t speak English, and we were the only tourists there, so there was not much chance to socialise
Great location, very affordable, and lovely rooftop area to hang in.

NetherlandsGreat location, right in the center of the city. Their rooftop terrace is lovely and allows a great view on the volcanos surrounding the city. Its nice to have breakfast on that terrace. There is staff 24/7, they are very friendly. The room was very big and clean, we slept very well in the beds. The blankets kept us nicely warm. Exceptional offer for the price we paid. We are very happy about our stay! Paying by card costs 5% extra, thats good to know beforehand. As far as we know thats not something the hostel decided but the bank.

NetherlandsActually nothing, really enjoyed our stay.
It's a nice and peaceful hostel with very spacious rooms. Even though I read about noise complaints in this area a lot, we were not at all troubled by this. We changed rooms and stayed at the streetside and the backside; both were as quiet as can be in a big city. The beautiful rooftop is a big bonus too, perfect to hang out and watch the sunset. They even serve the breakfast there. Plus we could leave our bags here while we went to the colca canyon. Overall great experience.

PeruI think the shared bathroom could have been cleaner and often toilet paper was missing.
The Hostel is nice and comfortable. The roof terrace is really great and we spend a lot of time there!

PanamaThey charge an extra 3-4% when you pay with a credit card, it wasn’t stated at booking.com or did a get charge a transactional fee anywhere else during my stay in Arequipa. Quite dissapointing! Information is key when you are comparing prices for your accomodation. Explain the situation to the manager and she wasn’t quite receptive, at the end they reimbursed only my accomodation 3-4% fee. They also sell some tours, please buy them directly with the agencies, they will also apply this 3-4% and at the agencies they will give you the same rates without this additional charges.
Excellent location, good restaurants nearby and friendly staff (except for the manager).

United KingdomIt was ridiculously noisy at night from the road - if we didn’t have ear plugs, we genuinely would not have slept at all! Also the staff at the hostel were not that welcoming, it seemed like it annoyed them when we asked a question! The breakfast needs one more item to make it good eg some fruit or eggs.
The location was perfect. The showers were nice and hot. Breakfast was bread, juice and coffee which was okay.

NetherlandsThe room was very noisy, the walls were very thin. You could literally hear everything in the adjacent room. The matress was old and the bed was not comfortable. The one time I showered (afternoon), there was no hot water and the shared bathrooms weren't very clean.
The location of the hostel was right in the city centre, which was very nice! The rooftop has an amazing view on the mountains. Breakfast was basic but fine.
