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.).

AustraliaNo lock on one of the toilets not a big problem why not fix it? Also nowhere to put your stuff in the shower. Power point is behind the mattress no way to use it. Also the beds wobble had a restless person in top bunk ;-)
I liked the location. If you take your pick with the shower and kitchen time there is no problem. They go out so get up late it's like having the place to yourself.

PolandTommy is an easygoing and flexible hostel owner. There was no problem to leave luggage before check-in in the morning of the departure day, no problem with leaving my luggage after check-out. The location is perfect and there is a sun terrace. I had a very nice stay there. I will come back one time.

United KingdomI was up early as had to leave early, however although I was able to access the facilities, I found it difficult to access the outdoor area.
I liked the informality of the hostel. It was ideally located, for my trip, in a lovely neighborhood. It was exactly what I wanted.

LatviaNothing in particular, but, if you are a person in need of some privacy, don't be mad for the lack of bed curtains and no bed light and the walk-through bedrooms.
Great value for money and good location in the old town of Lagos. The owner is charming, obviously loves communating with people and has put a social vibe into the hostel. The kitchen is fresh, dining and lounge areas are cool.

AlbaniaInternet. The router antenna is very week. Even thought the download speed is 300 mbps, if you stay a bit far from router the signal is weak. Even in the room very close to it the internet almost does not work. Some showers do not have enough to hand your things. Generally bathrooms are clean, but need some improvements.
This place gives you a relaxed stay. You can play games, chat, chill all the time. The owners are very friendly and communicative. It is a 2 store building with a small terrace in the top. It is very easy to meet people. Last night a big group came and we went all to a party. There is no need to bring your own locker as a key for the box is provided. The location is great. It is located inside the old town of Lagos. You can go to restaurants, bar and pubs very easy. Also there is a spar supermarket 3-4 walking, just after the port of the town, where you can find many articles. And besides that there are some other smaller markets which stay open till late.

United KingdomNot enough showers and toilets unfortunately for the amount of people staying there. You’d have to get lucky if you walked straight into a shower. Rooms a little hot also
Location was sensational. Was just off the main strip of bars and restaurants but far enough away to not hear any noise. Staff (in particularly Tommy) were legends and very friendly. Pool table and outdoor area outstanding!!

SpainNo shelf next to your bed for your phone when it charges so it may fall off while you're sleeping. Hot shower lasts for about a minute, then it turns to simply cold. This happened 3 times, at different times of the day.
Friendly and helpful staff. Staff offered activities, tours and discounts. Rooms were clean and cleaned every day. Personal lockers in the rooms. Outlet next to each bed for charging your devices. Nicely decorated and painted. Made you feel like spending some time in the hostel. Good hanging out area where you can meet other guests.

New ZealandUnfortunately there's just not enough facilities for the amount of people staying there - 3 toilets and 4 showers all up! Things like getting better aircon and water pressure are all in the process of being upgraded but for the mean time are a bit weak. The staff really try to keep everything clean and tidy but the toilets can be pretty gross by the morning time
Great hostel! The staff are all super lovely and friendly and really help make people feel at home. Good spacious dorms, a good kitchen and great places to hang out and meet people. The location is perfect right in the old town and a short walk to the beaches. Staff encourage the hostel partiers to head out by 11.30pm so if you need to get some rest it's nice and quiet by that time. Really enjoyed my time here!

New ZealandBathrooms - only 2 showers and 2 toilets per floor, super small space which made it tricky to also get changed in there, especially if someone else was also in the bathroom. Stayed in a 12 person room which was surprisingly fine for the most part, just had some inconsiderate people in the room the first two nights who were talking full volume at 4am.
Perfect location, so close to everything - right in the centre of all the restaurants, only a few minutes to the closest beach and 15 mins from the bus station. Staff were super lovely, definitely more of a party hostel than I was expecting but made it easy to meet people. Beds were comfy and locker provided.
