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.).

IrelandMattresses were uncomfortable & old. Could feel the springs sticking into you. Unreasonable to ask guests to bring linen down stairs in AM check out.For a cheaper hostel ,ok, but not when you're paying £20-25. But not a deal breaker for me! Still a very good hostel and well run. I would imagine on weekends it's very hard to sleep due to the bar noise downstairs. Would be fine if it stops before midnight.
Location.Friendly accomodating staff. Amazing kitchen.Top Hygiene.

GermanyWifi was very weak in the rooms and I often found it disconnected. Mattresses were sagging and should be replaced by better and harder ones. No free towel. Pub, club and restaurant downstairs, so it's extremely noisy on the weekends. Go grab some free earplugs at the reception. However, it might still annoy you.
The place is very social so I immediately met nice people to explore Bristol and Bath with. Living room has Netflix. The hostel is also very central; almost everything in Bristol is walkable from here. The bus terminal is right across the street. Apart from the club, restaurant and pub downstairs, there are a bunch of options up the road to go out, have food or drinks. The kitchen is very well equipped so you can prepare your own meals here. Cleanliness was alright.

ChinaAfter falling asleep, because the there is an open-air bar, there may be activities and music until 2 a.m., which will have some impact on sleep. Other than that everything is perfect.
This is my first attempt to live in a hostel. The front desk staff was very helpful in introducing me to the inner functions and facilities. When you stay here, you can get a comfortable bed and the staff will provide you with a change of sheets. The cleanliness of the interior of the room is very good, you can even compare with some luxury Hotels.

United StatesI can't say too much about it because I literally just slept the entire time I was there lol.
I wasn't here long, but I slept soundly in my bed, the bar wast too loud, but I can sleep through just about anything so I might not be the best reference on that point. I was going to go to the trivia night, but slept through it after a long day of traveling. The staff was super friendly and helpful and helped me to figure out the bus system to get back to the airport. The location was also great for me because it was like a 5 minute walk from the bus stop that I got off of from the airport shuttle into Bristol center when leaving the airport. The same bus line runs like all night long, so it was a stress free trip back to the airport at 3:30am.

Netherlands- The light at my bunk did not work. I used my phone torch instead so was not a big problem. - Would be nice to have a privacy curtain at the bunks but I used a towel instead. - Having to make your own bed was a little surprising but it didn't take long to be fair. Also some of the duvets were really worn out but I switched mine with one from an empty bunk and it was nice and thick.
After staying in some dreadful hostels in Barcelona, this was a breath of fresh air... gorgeous thick cut wood bunks, so they are steady and not noisy. It was not busy when I was there so it maybe biased but it seemed very quiet on a Tuesday night, I slept very well. The bathroom was right next to the dorm. The toilet and sink area was clean. The character of the building and the artwork is gorgeous and unique. Very Bristol, very cool. The bunks have a double plug socket next to your head which is ideal for phone charging and lighting.

Amazing staff, courteous and extremely helpful. wall art sensational, some incredibly talented folks! Arrived earlier than check in time, but was immediately greeted warmly & offered a paddington bear type eco friendly label to pop on my luggage which was put in safe storage, enabling me to explore the sights without shoulder ache. The atmosphere was so comfortable & relaxed. Free tea & coffee provision in kitchen. When I went in search of a beverage the supply had run out, but was instantly replaced by staff. Only stayed one night, but fully recommend to everyone. Thanks

United StatesAbout the only thing I can think of is that the place was a little noisy late in the evening. I expected that but was nevertheless a little disappointed because Full Moon seems to make a big effort to point out their quiet hours (at least on paper but perhaps not quite in reality). Anyway, I did sleep well, so I can't really complain about the noise. Otherwise, I would just say the other obvious negative is that the place is overpriced (but unfortunately just about everywhere in the UK is). £52/£62 for a twin room with a shared bathroom is way too much!
We stayed in a twin room and it was quite a bit nicer than we expected. For example, when we entered the room, we noticed how warm it was, so I think the staff probably went out of their way to make sure we wouldn't be cold upon arrival, which was nice. Two more bonuses: we were given towels and the TV had Netflix. Also, because we were staying on a Thursday night we expected the place to be a lot noisier than it was (music until 2am), but maybe we were lucky since the place wasn't really crowded (it's winter, after all). The beds were super comfy and the room was well decorated. The vibe of the entire place is very cool, actually, so I think we would stay there again for sure if we are ever back in Bristol.
