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...).

GermanyThe sleeping rooms with many people are both connected, also to the front desk area, so you hear very loudly whenever people are talking. I guess you get what you pay for, but for people with a higher budget it's not a recommendation.

HungaryWouldn't recommend it for more than one night or if you want to sleep at all. Terribly crowded,the two 'separate' rooms are basically in one space,because there is 1 meter between the walls and the ceiling so if it is fully booked ,you have to share your space with 41 people. More like an expensive locker room than a hostel.
It was okay for one night,last minute

ItalyIt is very small and the rooms are not real rooms, as the walls between them don't go up to the ceiling and the air conditioning was extremely cold. It basically doesn't have public spaces.
The position of the hostel is very good.

ItalyThe showers and dorm walls are growing mold; soap holder and shower head are broken. Bunk beds with three levels (against the usual two of most hostels) are a big discomfort, and the central floor is like a sandwich 😀 It was a little cold overnight. So we suggest to furnish blankets.
Bathroom is big.

United KingdomThe design of the place is absolutely awful. There aren’t any walls that separate the two rooms or even the rooms from the reception/lounge area, so noise travels. There was a group of drunk girls in the room next to me and the staff didn’t tell them to be quiet and that ruined my sleep. The first pillow I had was uncomfortable so I had to swap it with one on another bed. The description purposely doesn’t say how many beds are in a room because it is over 20. The place wasn’t dirty but it wasn’t exactly clean.
The staff were kind and polite and the place is very well located.

United States of AmericaThe beds were uncomfortable, and there were cockroaches in the showers. 24 people in a single room feels excessive, but again, it was cheap.
The location was super convenient, and it was a great price. Linens were included and beds each had an outlet.

Czech RepublicThere are triple bunk beds and it is kinda hard to get into the middle one. I also got pretty stupid one, as me and my bed was the first thing everyone saw, when they entered the room. Besides sleeping, the atmosphere of the hostel was quite empty, not really great for foreign country backpacker.
The location is truly awesome, also everything was clean and there was a fairly well equipped kitchen. I loved the view at Guggenheim from sofa.

NetherlandsThe cleanliness could be better, especially the bathroom but it was not too bad.
The location can’t be beaten, you are facing the museum clearly. The staff is very friendly and helpful, we arrived very early in the morning and they were fast to reply despite us not giving a notification beforehand. Our friend also left her phone behind and they kindly helped us to return it via post.

GermanyWell, it has three storey bunk beds, so it does feel very cramped. Little to zero privacy, everything is open (all inside walls don't reach the ceiling), small space for that many people. No breakfast, even though booking stated there was.

SpainIt can be noisy due to the amount of people. Its impossible to sleep without window open so it may be a problem in cold weather. Staff can't speak English but not impossible to communicate with them.
Location was perfect, next to the river and across the Guggenheim Museum. Kitchen was decent. Showers were almost perfect. Rooms were clean overall.

SpainConsidering what you already get for the low price, I couldn't ask for much more. I would've appreciated to know I had to bring lock and towel. The locker assigned to my bed was taken anyway so there's probably some mess on that, but I left my stuff out and felt safe.
Very low price and good value for what you pay, convenient to get in and out, quick check-in. Bathrooms are clean and work perfectly. Always felt safe and guests are young and respectful; everybody minds their own business.
