Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 States of AmericaSome rooms are in poor shape. Water damage visible on ceilings. Lighting was bad, and clearly some issue with the wiring as the lamp would go on and off periodically. Walls are thin and noise from the corridor is appreciable.
Excellent location. Exactly as described. Good value for the cost.

GermanyUnfortunately I had the only unstable double bunk bed (the black one) in the room. Maybe you can change it soon into a more stable grey one. With a little effort you could make the comfort in the rooms better (little shelf, little light in the beds) and the cosyness in the kitchen and balcony higher (refresh old furniture or through rotten one away). The price to stay overnight is rather high, so you could improve the value for money. Nevertheless I enjoyed my time. Thank you!
They provided a ready bed and towel. The staff were friendly, helpful and easy going. Nice quiet area around, very close to the tube and the next beach only 300 meter away.

The low price makes this place the only reasonable choice to find a room around Boston. And it's not even bad compared to the other hostels! It's just smaller. On the redline, so a perfect position to reach Boston, Cambridge and Somerville

CanadaThe camper had no sink or toilet and the one in the main building was very poor as the handle for the shower fell off. The bathroom needs an upgrade soon. The room was way overpriced for what was offered.
The private space in the camper van was very quiet and okay for a one night stand. The JFK metro stop is very close to the hostel.

GermanyI rarely use my credit card. At the hostel though I paid with it and both front and back were photographed. A few days later I was victim to credit card fraud. As I live on the other side of the world and had not used my card for anything else on this trip, I am quite certain that this is related though I cannot say whether it was negligence in protecting my data or purposeful bad intention by the staff. Also, my room was not yet clean when I arrived in the early evening but this was fixed in 15 minutes so I did not mind too much.
Adequate accommodation and much cheaper than anything else in the city. Has everything that is needed at a hostel. Had great chats with other visitors.

United KingdomLocation isn't brilliant and it is more than I'd normally pay - but I can blame them for what they delivered, and they were the cheapest option.
Near a metro stop, decent staff (and guests), some stuff around it for a snack or small meal, nothing too bad really.
