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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

ColombiaBreakfast is not a big deal. Don't get me wrong, the croissant was delicious, but is that and a coffee. The shower in the third floor was cold. Someone, who seemed to be either staff or volunteer opened our room in the night while we were there. Seemed confused, probably drunk, and instead of immediately closing the door, just stayed there stuttering like waiting for an invitation.
The room was very nice, with air-conditioning and the bed was really comfy. The bathroom was always clean and the bar is stunning. Having the balcony was a plus. The guy at reception was really attentive and helpful.

New ZealandNot necessarily a bad thing but just important to note that it’s near a lot of venues that do loud music or live music late into the night. Means it’s super lively which is fun, but not the place if you’re just stopping in for some sleep
Great location and good facilities. Had air con which was such a bonus. Great vibe, comfortable beds. Would love to visit again!

United KingdomIt was not the high season so things might change in summer. The kitchen was a little bit dirty with unwashed dishes and spoiled food in the refrigerator. Otherwise, things could be better off.
The location is perfect with good facilities and options. Good value for the money.

Veey professional and clean, the room was large and the bathrooms were clean. The location is very central to the main strip with lots of cafes and restaurants. It comes off a pedestrianised street.

Location was great - the beds were comfortable enough and everything was really clean. Staff was friendly and the bar downstair was nice for a coffee and drink! This isn't a very social hostel, so definitely best if you want a quieter stay.

AlbaniaWhile my stay at Bed Station was overall delightful, there was one aspect that I found slightly inconvenient: the shared bathrooms. Initially, I was a bit hesitant about this arrangement, as I prefer having my own private bathroom. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and the level of privacy provided in the shared facilities. Despite the shared nature of the bathrooms, they were impeccably maintained, which eased any concerns I had. The staff ensured that they were cleaned regularly, contributing to a hygienic environment throughout my stay.
I recently stayed at Bed Station and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home. Their friendly demeanor added a warmth to the atmosphere that truly enhanced my stay. One of the standout features of Bed Station is its prime location, which is conveniently close to various facilities and attractions. Whether I needed to grab a quick bite to eat or explore the city, everything was within easy reach, making my travels hassle-free. The bar and party scene on the ground floor added an exciting dynamic to the property. It provided a vibrant atmosphere for socializing and enjoying the local nightlife without having to venture far from my room. Despite the lively ambiance downstairs, the rooms remained peaceful and quiet, allowing for a restful night's sleep. Moreover, I appreciated the emphasis on safety throughout the property. From secure room locks to well-lit corridors, Bed Station prioritized the well-being of its guests, giving me peace of mind throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend Bed Station to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient accommodation option. With its exceptional staff, excellent location, and enjoyable amenities, it's the perfect choice for both leisure and business travelers alike.
