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.).

United StatesJust the fact that Miami is a very hot and high humidity city, a place where you would rather have a room temperature shower, but instead, very warm water will come out the cold line. It didn't matter what adjustments you tried to do on the faucet, water will just come out hotter. I told the people on the reception, nothing changed. And now I'm supposed to stay there for another three weeks. Should I take a large bucket full of cold water? Or what?
Staff were very nice at all times, somewhat friendly.

BrazilOnly hostel I have stayed where there is no kitchen for guests to use, they have not allowed even to keep a bottle of milk overnight, it spoiled of course. :( The lockers are small and too noise. Missed have curtains around the beds.
Location is excellent, next to Miami beach with easy access to everything. Many busses rotes around and the bus to the airport stops 1 block away. Staff was very nice, I have received pre instructions before arriving and they were always ready to answer the questions.

United KingdomThe beds could have been a little comfier and I was only given a thin sheet for sleeping and a square pillow. It would have been nice to have had the option of a blanket and for a bigger pillow. Having to pay a resort fee of $6 per night would soon add up if staying multiple nights.
Clean and spacious hostel with good facilities. The bedroom was spacious as was the toilet and bathroom. I was only there for a couple of nights so only saw the karaoke but looks like they have plenty of activities going on in the evenings. The staff were friendly and helpful and it was a bonus being able to store my items until 5pm on the day of check-out for free.

United StatesThe location is good, being less than 10 minutes away from the beach. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. Be sure to request a room designated for your gender, as most hostels in Europe are segregated by sex. I ended up in a shared room, which was acceptable. Overall, I would recommend this place.

United StatesBeds are extremely uncomfortable. when you climb to the upper bed, the whole bed shakes and moves a lot, feels unstable. On the upper bed there is no outlet to charge your phone, no small shelf or anything to put your stuff... was inconvenient.

SwitzerlandVery uncoordinated staff. At the beginning they told me I can leave the luggage there, and next day there was different person and wanted to charge me extra money for leaving the luggage. Apparently there was no possibility to contact the boss. At the end I had to leave my luggage somewhere else, as they wanted to charge a lot for it.
The location is amazing !

United StatesI didn't like that they have no refrigerators, and you can't bring food in rooms, and they have no full-on site full restaurant. I ended up wasting a lot of food because I could not save for later! Come on food portions are big in tourist areas like Miami, and expensive!!
I liked that this Hostel matched the vibe of Miami Beach. from the Dance music and Latin music, they played from the drinks! The staff was amazing very friendly and engaging with guest. Breakfast on site for $6 with 4 di choices to choose from. They have special theme nights like Karaoke and Happy Hour daily.
