Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

CanadaHad multiple rude interactions with the staff. It’s not your typical backpacker hostel. I’m not referring to social ambience but rather that they don’t like to hold luggage, they don’t allow access to the kitchen after check out and you can’t stay to wait for a flight/bus for instance. It was a bit disappointing in that regard.

ChinaI stayed Soul hostel 2 before, and liked it so much that I chose to stay hostel 1. Everything is nice, basically the same style and decorations, chill vibe, clean area, friendly reception, breakfast included. Just maybe this hostel is the old one, not as big space as hotel 2.

PolandThe room's ceiling fan made some noise at night (although this was necessary due to the hot weather, and the fan chilled the room well). There was no safety rail on the top bunk bed.
Staff attended the helpdesk frequently and gave helpful advice. A spacious locker comes with a padlock. A good breakfast made the morning happier. There was also a fridge to store your food. Best of all, the location!

MexicoThis is me, I realized im not a hostel person at all, to be honest I just booked hostel expecting to meet people and maybe go outside with them but it wasn't the case for the destinations.
again, I didn´t make it to breakfast but the bed was very comfy to be honest with you, at least compared with the previous hostel on rio, super close to avenida paulista and very quite zone, the staff were nice and the place like showers and bathrooms were very clean.

BrazilApparently, the staff doesn't like talking. You ask something and it seems that they answer out of obligation. The kitchen doesn't smell very good, but it's ok. The breakfast is too simple. I'd add more options such as different kinds of fruit.
The location is PERFECT. Close to Avenida Paulista and to she subway station.

BrazilThe bedding could definitely be better and the lockers should be bigger. The rooms are not so big, so with no space in the lockers, people just leave their stuff spread around the room. Nevertheless, it was a good place to stay,
The location is perfect, a block away from Paulista Av., and breakfast is just fine, simple but with the right amount of food. The staff is very friendly and kind, besides being responsive and attentive to the guests.

RussiaHostel is smaller and older than the photos are showing. Showers are small. Well, everything were too small for me, actually. I had the smallest room upstairs with weak wooden bed and broken plugs. It’s may be fun and ok for a skinny girl as I am, but bigger people and tall guys were afraid to sleep on the upper bed. It’s just too shaky lol. But I had a great time at the hostel and loved it at the end. Just be sure, that comfortable bed and shower is not the main point for you. Or at least ask the room downstairs, I think it’s a bit better.
Perfect central location and good breakfast. I met very nice people there!

Costa RicaThe sanitary door on the first floor didn’t close, and the smell was awful. The smell inside the room coming from the window is also awful. Really noise, you could hear ppl from the reception late (like 2 am). The window curtains was completely seethru so the light coming from the outside was always on my face while sleeping. Did a early check out tbh because of all of those stuff
The staff is friendly
