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.).

BelgiumEverything was great from the moment you walk in they great you by name. The garden is amazing. They serve great food. When you go to eat in the garden there is a big table where there guests sit together to eat to talk about they’re day and what there plans are. They even ask if you wanna join them on their hike or trip. Really recommended

United StatesThe bathrooms were a bit small if you are tall or like extra space for getting showered, but this was minor compared to the rest and not something that would prevent me returning at all.
The breakfast was wonderful to start the day, and the hostel setup fostered a community atmosphere for travelers to meet up and mingle.

United KingdomNothing to dislike, it was all great. Perhaps could be improved with additional seating in the garden if you want to bring your own food and drinks and not purchase from the restaurant, but not an issue. Drinks and food from the restaurant were really good.
Every part of our stay was amazing. Nice hostel, friendly and helpful staff and great breakfast.

Satisfied with staff, bed, location, food, everything they offer. Silent room, soft bed, private bathroom in the room. Nice garden to enjoy in hanging net in music with few cats and ducks. Beakfast is nice, freshly prepared by staff. Location is great; few minutes to the center of Ponta Delgada, restaurant & bar in the same building. Kitchen offers much space to prepare food..so.. Book and enjoy your stay. :) Recommended

PortugalThe electricity hook up situation and how it’s wired. It has problems and they need to be resolved pronto.
Everything was great. However, the electricity would short out quite often. I’m talking about every two minutes it would sort out. And during the night this is really inconvenient because the emergency light turns on in the bedroom and it wakes up anybody who has sensitive to light. That is me, so I did not sleep one of the nights. I went to sleep at 10 and I woke up at midnight and at two am because of the whole situation. I ended up staying awake from 2 AM onwards and the next day was difficult and challenging to do my work. And then I had to catch an airplane so my stay was unsatisfactory.

Staff are exceptionally friendly! They gave me a thorough welcome tour which was great to know where everything is. The location is right in town so it's an easy walk to anything in Ponta Delgada. There is also a great outdoor patio to relax or eat at the delicious connected restaurant!

ItalyGreat hostel!!! The vibe is amazing, very social & perfect for solo travellers. Very clean, with cool shared spaces, especially the beautiful garden to enjoy breakfast in the sun and meet cool people! Special credits to the staff, they are all so kind and fun, very welcoming and friendly - especially Luciaan (amazing receptionist!!!) and Romain (amazing tour guide!!!), both super attentive & hospitable. They also organise daily tours around the island, a cool way to explore and socialise! I highly recommend the “Ring of Fire” tour with Romain. Will for sure come back!

CanadaOne of the staff members, Marc, made us feel very uncomfortable during our stay. On multiple occasions he made inappropriate or insulting jokes and comments toward us and a few other guests. It was to the point where we were hesitant to leave our room on the evenings he was working the front desk. All the other staff were amazing though and very kind and accommodating, this was only an issue with Marc. Also not a great indoor common room at this place which is often needed because of how much it rains on the island.
The hostel was at a great location and very clean. The outside area was gorgeous and the morning breakfast was tasty although rather small. Almost all the staff were lovely, very accommodating and easy to get along with.
