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.).

FranceVery comfortable beds, lots of luggage storage, bathrooms and showers very clean. Although there were many many beds in the dorm, how they have arranged the layout it makes it feel like you’re in a way smaller dorm! Really liked the stairs rather than ladder doing up to the top bunk. Location was convenient, easy walk to get to Shibuya station. Staff was very kind

NetherlandsThe room got extremely warm and humid at night. The airconditioning didn’t seem to do anything and is centrally controlled. Opening the window was also not ideal since I was on the road side of the building and the traffic can get very loud, even deep in the night (especially with motorcycles who make it their goal to be as loud and obnoxious as possible). Space for your backpack/luggage was very limited.
Location is walking distance from Shibuya station and nightlife. Everything was clean. Staff was friendly.

United StatesI thought that this hostel has downgraded a bit from last I stayed here. A five year gap has changed many things about the hostel which made the phrase "you get what you paid for" a reality. For example, they used to issue guests three free towels per night upon request, but when I went there recently I got only one for the entire stay; ask for any extra and you had to pay 100 yen per towel. It was a minor detail and understandable, given the circumstances, but I was taken aback at this change. Although I should be used to it as a solo traveler, the close quarters living arrangement with other foreigners, not just Americans, was a challenge. In simpler terms, I was wise to bring a nice pair of Noise Cancelling headphones because there were nights when a rowdy bunch of people walked through the sleeping compartment, disrespecting those who needed rest. After this incident, I had to get used to sleeping in headphones to get even a wink of sleep.
I liked the bare bones essentials of this hostel. It was affordable when I reserved a bed. All I needed was a shelter for the night and Wise Owl provided it. The receptionist was a foreigner, so there was no need to speak Japanese. He was friendly and welcomed weary travelers like me. The bed was comfortable and there were multiple toilets as well as showers stalls which were much appreciated at a hostel that hosts many travelers. The place had an easy access to the neighborhood in Shibuya that had a plethora of food options.

CanadaIn the large room we stayed we had to share about 10 bunk beds so there was alot of people sharing a room essentially. It can be a great experience like we had but if there is a bad apple in the bunch they can ruin a good night's sleep ! Keep in mind
Good location close to Shibuya crossing if you can walk 10 minutes or the bus can get you there in about the same time with less physical exertion.
