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...).

United KingdomThere were no privacy curtains around the beds
The dorm rooms were well kept and colourful. My dorm had only four girls in it total so was a very comfortable stay, with few disruptions. The beds were very comfy and the private shower was the best one I’ve seen in a hostel!

Germanydidn't like the TV in the kitchen/dining area or rather found it not to be necessary. as this area is in the basement there is no natural light there. if this area got a little make-over like painted murals on the wall it would give it a nicer atmosphere :)
very well equipped kitchen, they offer a good breakfast for just 2€. everything was clean, the staff is young, friendly and helpful. the WiFi worked pretty well, I could do some remote work without any problems. I found the beds/mattresses were quite comfortable, sockets next to the bed and a little lamp for reading at night. big spacious lockers for storing your valuables.

The staff is very helpful. You can see them being proactively fixing, cleaning, helping, and solving things. The rooms are comfortable. Very central.

United KingdomOnly 2 sticking points. The shower doesn't drain and always seems to pool the moment you start a shower, this happened in 2 of the rooms I stayed in. The only option is to pay in cash, which is fine for a short stay but can mount up in ATM and exhange fees if you withdraw more to stay as long as I did. Oh and maybe some bedside shelves could be nice for more easy storage space.
After a week I stayed for another since the staff were so friendly and made my stay more comfortable. Brilliantly clean, nice simple breakfast options and the WiFi was great to catch up on work with. Nicely equipped kitchen to save money with a bit of home cooking since the hostel is close to a few small supermarkets. Even though there was noise from the streets, the beds were comfortable enough for me to fall into a deep slumber.

United States of AmericaThe showers were nice and well kept, but the shower head was only hand held and not mounted which was abnormal for me and slightly inconvenient, though not a big deal.
The location was great, super convenient and good views. The staff were also super nice and helpful. The key card and the lockers were both great and I like that the rooms are quads and not too big. The facilities are nice and well kept. The price is good and the towels can be rented for only 1€. Wifi works great. They can also set you up with a free walking tour which was nice
