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.).

AustraliaWifi connection in rooms need to be checked, as I and my partner could not connect to it.
It was good for the price, all facilities mentioned in the listing were provided, except wifi didn't connect in the room but only in the common kitchen space.

NetherlandsIt is hard to reach the touristic places. The hostel is not so central, so a car or a bike is smart to have. This is a tip, but don't let this stop you to go to this hostel. The staff will do everything they can do for you to arrange transport! It is a very good hostel.
Friendly staff! Really want to help you to have a good time. Very clean hostel and a beautifull big kitchen with everything you need. Nice beds with enough space.

AustraliaWas a little cold in the room and took heater a few hours to warm up. Would have liked seating in the room.
Room and bathroom were clean. The common kitchen had all the equipment to cook and also was clean. Did not use the common spaces, but looked great to hang out in.

AustraliaWe stayed there in July. The room was very cold. The heater was set on a three hour timer so we had to get up several times at night to turn the heater back on. Additional blankets were not provided. The lift did not work - glad we were only on the first floor.
Good, clean, no frills accommodation. Exceeded my expectations when I discovered after booking that it was a youth hostel. We had a queen room with ensuite. Great for a stay in summer.

AustraliaSound proofing not the best when children playing outside 6am on a Sunday morning in the corridor. Heater automatically switched off after a while so have to watch to manually switch on the wall switch twice on a cold night.
Our on-suite room was simple but clean. It was like a business motel room, functional with minimal furniture. Community kitchen was clean, spacious and well equipped. There were also sitting, games and TV areas on the same floor we were in.
