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...).

SingaporeI must point out that the beds are not comfortable at all (I got a room with a bunkbed), and the room also has some sort of smell, which I believe is related to the old furniture, mattresses, etc. A renovation would be great. Last but not least, the room should have a fan to support air circulation and cool down the room.
You definitely get what pay for, the price is affordable and the location is excellent, so be ready to compromise on other aspects. As I mention, the location could not be better, the environment is clean, the staff friendly and helpful, and easy check-in/checkout. Walking distance to the best sightseeing in Visby, shops, cafes, and restaurants. Shower rooms and bathrooms are always in good condition. There is a common kitchen and a terrace, also very well maintained.

United KingdomRather expensive for what you get. In the whole time I was staying, I never saw a single member of staff. The place is owned and managed by a nearby hotel . If you arrive late at night off the ferry you will need to pick up key from bax at hotel and walk down the road to the hostel
Great location inside the old city walls. A 20 min walk from ferry port. Great for a night or two to have a look round Visby (Which is well worth looking round by the way). There is a shared kitchen area that is functional but not particularly well equipped. Small shared balcony area for eating breakfast. Good as long as weather allows of course

United KingdomThe sign for the hostel is up high and not clear - I found the hostel hard to locate. It is a self-check-in process so you do not see anyone during your stay. Showers did not drain properly so there was a cleaning up process after your shower. Kettle was broken. No bedding and as there is no staff there is noone to ask for any. There may be a process for requesting bedding but it was not clear to me. Towels were provided though. Beds were OK (in keeping for what you expect in a hostel).
This Hostel is located right in the centre of of the historic walled city of Visby - fantastic location! Literally everything you want is just a very short walk, restaurants, bars, tourist shops, quality shopping, historic sights, etc. Nice kitchen with a balcony to sit out on. Rooms are a nice size.

SpainThe biggest problem was the curtains. For the summer, you need to have something to cover your eyes, since there is so much light coming in very very early in the morning. I expected them to have very thick curtains. Also, bring your own soap for the shower. There is nothing there.
It is the best value for money if you plan to stay in Visby. The location is really good. I could walk from the ferry to this place and didn't take that long. Then the center of the town is very close as well.

NetherlandsThe hotel looks nice, and the staff was friendly. However the hostel is in a separate part that is outdated. There is a funky smell when you enter. The room had stains all over. The air vents haven't been cleaned in ages and make a wining sound. Such a shame, as the location is ideal.

Perfect location on one of the main streets with many shops, café and restaurants. From the deck / terrace on second flood you have a great view on Baltic sea and beautiful sunset ( for backyard side rooms, mine was #2), other rooms overlook Adelsgatan what is also beautiful. Terrace itself is very cozy and it was a pleasure to take breakfast outside, enjoy the moment of quietness. Kitchen well equipped. All shared facilities are clean. The room was clean, decent size, big window.
