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.).

ItalyThe smell is awful everywhere ; it's a smell of a non ventilated Place with mold. The showers are dirty and old. The laundry didn't work.
It had bed linen

United StatesI think the only downside, and it's very very minor, but if the owner had a couple power strips for those bunks blocking outlets, it would be super helpful. But otherwise perfect.
A basic Albergue. Great place to spend the night. The owners are helpful and the facilities clean and well managed.

SpainThere was nothing remarkable that I didn't like.
The living room is the heart of this albergue, with rooms and facilities around it. It makes it really cozy and encourages the dialog with other pilgrims. The rooms are spacious, and it all was very clean.

UkraineI was disappointed with an empty tea box. No option for tea people. And I'd ask senior hospitaliero do not watch Spanish detectives on TV till the late night.
It is not my first time in this albergue so it meets my expectations. I do not expect something luxury from a pilgrim hostel. As for basic needs like a bed and a shower, everything is OK. Good for this price, especially when you have no choice at low season.

United KingdomPilgrims get up early, so you might be woken if you are a light sleeper.
Good location for city visit with local eateries & shops nearby. Metro service is close & efficient. Bed itself was very comfortable. The staff operate a rigorous cleaning regime, appropriate with frequent short stay guests on pilgrimage. Spacious lounge area to relax in. Useful fully featured kitchen & on site laundry. Parking is on street, & it's busy. The staff were very friendly, helpful & professional.

GermanyThe mattresses are not the best. Only a microwave in the kitchen. No cooking field. The one cleaning guy was definitely bothered that I stayed longer that morning.
The lady at the front desk was super welcoming. They have a kitchen, washing machine and dryer, a sink to wash clothes, lockers with locks and the showers have a little space so you can change your clothes.
