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.).

GermanyTo rent a towel you need to pay so it is better to bring your own.
Located in very good location walkable from city center also close to river good for walk in the morning. Best part I loved this place was cleaness. When you do check out you need to remove mattress,pillow,bed sheet you used and she will change to new one which I coudln't expect from other hostels. Also in kitchen everyone should wash and dry dishes they used which I feel very good. Host was nice, professional and gave lots of tips to travel Ljubljana. I stayed 3 nights but except one day room was not completely booked so I used alone or with just one girl.

United KingdomOnly common space was the kitchen which closed at 10, made it a bit harder to meet people than other hostels I've stayed at, but still managed to meet some nice people to go the pub with so really can't complain too much.
Aleks was a great host and super knowledgeable about the city; she suggested a lot of cool things I wouldn't have known about otherwise. Really nice location too, quiet spot by the river with a couple cafes/bars across the street.

IndiaThe location is at the heart of ljublajana and close to the famous square, and next to the canal as well. But it was almost 20 min walk from the central bus station which bothered me because I had to make several rounds to it
The staff was really helpful and went out of the way to check me in even when I was late at night to reach the property They had two standing fans in the dorms which was essential in the summer months and for a peaceful sleep. The bathroom was clean too.

GermanyDespite you need a credit card to book the hostel, only cash is accepted as payment. The narrow road on the side of the hostel can get really full of cars during peak time, not a problem if you spend the day outside visiting the city. One of the nice bars on the other side of the canal was open till late on Saturday, with loud music till 1 am and loud people till 2: good if you are part of the party, a nightmare if you are trying to sleep. A bit expensive for being an hostel.
The lady managing the hostel is really nice and helpful with lots of tips about the city, where to go and to eat. Room for 6 was ok with comfortable mattresses. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare a complete meal. Kids said wi-fi was ok :D Hostel is located a few mins on foot from city center.

SloveniaNo towels available. Upon departure I asked why there were no towels (came back to hostel late at night). Staff explained to me that it was necessary to request a towel and pay deposit, as quests like to take towels away (information for all future visitors to the hostel). In the evening loud music can be heard from the surrounding bars. There is a church near the hostel and I personally find church bells in the morning very annoying and they are very loud.
This hostel is in a very good location. You are in the center of the old part of Ljubljana in just a few minutes" walk. Very friendly staff. Near the hostel you have a shop (Mercator)and also a small shop with fresh vegetables and fruit, a bakery and many restaurants.

The hostel is located in a beautiful area of Krakovo, just a 5 min walk from the main city squares. The room and bathroom were very tidy and cleaned up regularly. The lockers and the kitchen (equipped sufficiently even for serious cooking) were available and helpful, too. Plus the staff is very nice and eager to help.

Good location with restaurants, cafes and supermarkets around. Nice, small rooms with wooden beds with your own socket, bathrooms very clean, kitchen with great equipment.
