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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

NetherlandsNot really negative, but more something I should have checked: the hostel doesn’t have a washing facility, but luckily there is a laundromat 3 minutes from the hostel. So super convenient.
The staff was super helpful and had many tips for in the area. Also, I wanted to rent a scooter. They made the call for me and the scooter was dropped off at the hostel. I could leave it there for return to. Really convenient. The hostel is also next to the night market and close to the sea and beach. Also, the room and the common area was very nice and comfortable. I wish I had more time, then I would definitely have stayed longer!

SwitzerlandThe staff were nice but not very helpful. When I asked about things to do without a scooter, I was basically told I couldn't do anything, which turned out to be not true. Distances are not huge and one can cycle/take buses easily. Otherwise, all great.
Great location, free laundry, free tea and coffee, cute cats.

PolandThe ceilings in the showers are wooden, and getting a bit mouldy.
I've had a great time over there. Great location in the middle of Kenting, close to the large beach, bus stops and night market. People working there are friendly and helpful, easy to reach via social media or whatsapp with any questions. Extra bonus for the cat :)

Everything was great, one of the best bed I had on Taïwan.

TaiwanAt least via booking, I thought I would pay by credit card but had to use cash eventually. It seems that via other platforms you can pay via credit card.
Close to all facilities in kenting like night market, bus stops, beaches, scooter rental. Staff is super friendly, and helped me with what to do in kenting, and also had many tips for other parts of taiwan

United KingdomPersonal preference but the shower inside the dorm was a little noisy, also made the room feel slightly humid. There were great showers provided in the corridor but people still used the dorm showers at 6am, I think I toilet in the room would be sufficient and leave the showering for out of the dorm- this would also help with the dampness :)))))
Lovely and helpful staff, room was large and curtains were a nice addition. Communal area had a fridge and hot/cold water machine. Super close to the non-swim area of the beach but very beautiful to walk around. Very central - right next to Kenting police station bus stop.

TaiwanLoads of things were there that need improvement. We had a booking in the top floor. It was a temporary room with very few amenities. It was a big space partitioned by a half wall, but with one air conditioner that was obviously not enough to cool two rooms. The lights were not functioning well, no WiFi connection was accessible from the top floor. Another big problem was the lack of toilet. There was a couple of shower rooms on the second floor but there was only one common toilet in the entire hostel and that was located at the ground floor. Accessing it was really difficult, especially at night in the middle of the sleep since a lot of walking and crossing floors was required. There was enough space on the terrace to get another toilet constructed. No kitchen and washing facilities.
The location was excellent. There was enough parking space for scooters. The hang out area was nice.

FranceNever been a fan of toilets/showers in the room but to each his own. Being a little hostel it lacks a few equipment (a proper kitchen, washing machines...).
Great little hostel one little street away from the main drag. The place isn't so big so it's pretty cozy & friendly with spaces (outside & inside) to chat & meet people. Nice vibe, clean rooms, big beds, lockers... Owners/managers are super nice & mega helpful. I strongly recommend!
