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.).

BelgiumIf you need to be in the city in the evening it's a bit hard to return by public transport. Strange rules like only able to use the kitchen between very limited hours. The hostel receives groupes (schools/..) so if there is a group It could be noisy and when there are no groups it is really calm as there are, now in winter, not too many travellers. The question about the staff is hard for me to answer as some were really friendly/helpful and others less. The lady who let me in was pretty cold and I noticed she was talking about me behind my back. (She made the other girl watch me, closed the door of the reception, they we're talking, afterwards she opened the door again.) This doesn't make you feel welcome. Because of the way this lady pronounced my name I could't help from thinking it was because of my roots (dutchspeaking from Belgium). At the other hand all the other staff was really nice and helpful to me.
Beautiful place in nature with nice views and a lovely garden with aromatic herbs. The building is an old little castle. It's very beautiful as it's surroundings are as well too. The kitchen is almost a professional kitchen tot cook in. The question about the staff is hard for me to answer as some were really friendly/helpful and others less. The kitchen and bathroom were clean.

BrazilThe girls in réception charged me extra 2 € and I did not notice until I check my email. I asked why and they told me it's for the fidelity card for the hostel but I did not asked for it and also they did not gave me that card until I asked for the extra charge. They should ask you whether you want to buy the card or not. It is a dishonest strategy to sell.
I liked the building, it's very big and it has a nice view from the tables in the exterior. The breakfast was good.

GermanyThis is not really a hostel, there were little kids everywhere. Wifi only on the ground floor. The bathrooms were a bit dirty and the room was tiny. From some bunkbeds there was no access to a power socket. The showers only had cold water. The location is definitely not the best, it's far away from the center. A very very very high price for what they had to offer. Would not really recommend staying there.
The staff was nice and there was breakfast. They have lockers, but you need your own lock.

CanadaLocated in a good neighborhood, but pretty far from the center. Takes at least 30 minutes to get to the Vieux Port and that requires 20 minutes of walking. Lots of walking and a long transit ride to get to and from the train station as well.
Overall clean and comfortable. Nothing special. Breakfast was standard, but good - cereal, yogurt, baguettes, coffee, tea, juices, and very hard boiled eggs. Nice picnic table area outside and a good view from the garden. Kitchen was clean and has a stove, oven, fridge, pots, pans, utensils, and dish ware.

United KingdomThe hostel is far away from center and the metro station. Don't book it if you do not have a car because it's very inconvenient to get to places. There were rats in the outdoor area, but i guess it's normal in France. Reception staff were okay but the cleaner tried to kick out some girls from the room 30 minutes before check out time
The hostel had pretty cool outdoor area with a nice view to Marseille. Breakfast was a big plus and everything was very clean.

United StatesThe staff was exceptional. They helped me to find a route to go hiking in the Calanques which was simple and effective -- google maps made it seem more complicated than it actually was. They also let me leave my suitcase there for the day after checking out which really relieved a lot of stress so I could spend another day in Marseille! Merci beaucoup!!

FranceI have been stolen my computer because of the lack in security. All what has been said to me: there is no thiefs here, very nice. The location is too far from the subway and is badly served by the bus. You will miss everything happening in the centre. Do not come back late in the evening. You might walk through a climb during 25min. The beds are so uncomfortable... good luck.
The location could be good in summer, nice to eat outside.
