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 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 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.).

I love this place, I’ve been there several times and every time I stay in Madrid, I try to book here. I love the facilities, the guests, the staff and the ambience. Good quality for the value!

United KingdomTwice in four days our dorm ran out of toilet roll and, unlike other experiences I've had, it didn't appear to be guests stockpiling at their beds.
I needed somewhere reasonably priced, as travelling alone for work, and with decent co-working spaces. The whole place has a really welcoming feel in the communal areas and the facilities within each bunk were also excellent, helped by respectable room mates. It is also perfectly situated in Lavapies, that has lots of great bars, coffee shops and empanadas store within 200 yards! While working WiFi was never an issue which is always a relief.

GermanyYou should pay 29 euro for park which is quite high amount to be honest. Breakfast was okay but could be better.
The bed was comfy and also they upgraded my reservation cause my room was overbooked. I stayed at premium one which has bigger beds. Atmosphere were nice, workers were really joyful and helpful.

ItalyI found the room too hot but that's a personal preference.
Central location. Nice bar right next to the hostel, that offered a free drink for hostel guests (small beer or juice). The bar was very lively and had some food options, and hostel guests got a discount. The additional breakfast was served there, with a varied choice and was worth the 9 euro paid.

FinlandThe walking tour was advertised as free but in reality it is tip based. We were a little surprised by this because in practice you have to pay the price of a normal tour. However, we enjoyed the tour and the guide (Erika) was very nice and made it super interesting :) Also fire safety of the building seemed a bit dangerous, as there was only a narrow staircase down and our room was at the other end of the hallway.
The hotel was really clean and modern and staff was always nice. The breakfast was reasonably priced and good. There were also some activities that seemed fun but this is not the most sociable place for meeting other travelers. The location is really good, there are a lot of restaurants and pubs nearby and you can walk to the center in a short time.

FinlandWe had a family room. It had a very strong odour of sweat during the whole stay. There was a wet towel hanging in the bathroom - it seems like the cleaning staff isn't given enough time to clean properly. The heating works with a motion sensor and turns off automatically during the night, so it was a bit chilly in the morning (we stayed during very cold days though).
The location is amazing, the staff is super helpful and the design is very cool.
