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.).

TaiwanLimited bathrooms. Sometimes you might need to wait.
The location is great. Right in the town next to the bridge, so it's easy to get to all the sites. The hostel is not brand new but clean. Though not spacious, Merlin hostel is decorated with great drawing, making it a pleasant place to stay. And the staff are really kind and helpful, letting us store our luggage before check-in and after check-out.

Italythe place is old and coul need some renovation, especially the kitchen (small fridge and slooow stove) and the bathrooms (one out of two shower was partially broken). cleaning a little more wouldn't be bad, overall it was okay, but as soon as something falled under the bed you would discover a carpet of dust.
the position is perfect, in the middle of the city and not far from the autobus station. it's quite cheap, but the balance with the quality is still not the best.

ThailandThe property is pretty old. It was raining and they rain just pouring down from window so we have to close it. But it’s so hot and humid inside.

United StatesUnfortunately we were right next to construction that made relaxing, enjoying the terrace, or sleeping late very difficult! I shared a room with 1 other person which was great but there were 6 beds and if full it could be challenging to maneuver the cramped spaces. Very thin, hard, and uneven mattresses.
Great location, fantastic manager, lovely old building with lots of character. Nice terrace. Nice to have beds, not bunks! Quiet, nice people.

United StatesThe bedrooms and bathrooms could use more hooks. The furniture and bedding is pretty beat. The walk from the Flix Bus station is murder on your suitcase wheels.
This place has lots of character, as does the village itself. Kitchen is small but adequate. It's right in the heart of the historic center.

TaiwanThe bed linen was not very clean. The staff can be hard to reach as their working hours are irregular. If you need to store luggage, you can arrange it in advance through Booking.com—they are very friendly and accommodating!
This accommodation is located in a small town with an excellent location and very affordable rates. Being able to enjoy the town’s scenery in the early morning was truly a highlight.

United StatesThe beds aren’t super comfy, but it’s an inexpensive hostel so you kind of have to lower your mattress standards. Also, the square can be very noisy at night, so just close your window if you can’t handle it
Perfect location with the bonus of privacy! The rooms are pretty small, but it’s reasonable for the price you pay. The balcony looks right out on the river and was really nice to sit out there in the evening.
