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...).

AustraliaNeeds some maintenance with broken taps and showers. Only 1 male shower on floor as other broken. Inadequate cutlery and crockery in kitchen meant having to wait for bowls and spoons to be washed up to have breakfast. Bunk beds difficult to climb down to go to shared toilet. Noisy at night as right next to light rail station which operates. 6am to 2am.
Very close to Central station. Very secure and women should feel quite safe.Has kitchen facilities and adequate refrigerator capacity for whole hostel. Staff friendly and helpful. Hostel kept clean but furnishings tired. Breakfast provided cereal and white bread jam Vegemite and peanut butter.

SingaporeThe lockers needed to to have my own locks and my locker was spoilt...but lucky i have only a small haversack.
Location is very central. Bedsheets were clean, Breakfast included . And special mention to the male staff who took pains to explain how should I go to a particular place as I was unsure . He even walk some distance and led the way and point me to the direction of my destination when i checked out very early like 6+ am. He is the reason I will come back to stay and recommend others.

AustraliaThe lift was a bit slow but nothing to really worry about.
I liked how central this was with the tram service and Chinatown and paddy’s market so close by. I loved the kitchen area with so many facilities and a great meeting place for others that are staying there. Very friendly place and the bathrooms were excellent.

AustraliaBathrooms could be cleaner, especially showers. Breakfast was modest but you can easily complement with something else on your own (e.g., eggs, cheese, and fruits).
It is well located in Sydney CDB, with easy access to public transport. I literally walk from there to the Opera House along George St. and it was really pleseant.

United KingdomThe fridges were too full, could have done with some extra food storage space.
Location was great- right outside a tram stop. The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming. The room was spacious and lockers were provided, the rooms were cleaned daily and kept to a decent standard. Room checks were done, checking aircon was correct etc which was really good. Toilets were cleaned regularly and really clean- nice showers, very spacious. Kitchen was clean. Lots of room and loads of seating. The fridges were a bit full. Also the free breakfast was good and refreshed regularly. Overall really good value for money!
