How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGreat location and value. Friendly staff, comfortable beds, and great common spaces.
Showers felt gross (mold and mildew on walls and ceiling) and too small (no room to place clean clothes and toiletries)

Verified reviewany time someone walked past my bed, it shook which was really distracting. doors closing was quite loud even when you try to close them as gently as possible. no elevators that i saw or that i was directed towards and seeing as i was on the top floor with a bad knee, this wasn’t ideal. one of the receptionists was flirting with a customer while i was trying to check in and took quite a while to get to me

Hello Kais, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad you appreciated the service, but we’re truly sorry for the challenges you experienced during your stay. As our building is old, we do not have a lift, and we understand that moving luggage can be inconvenient. However, we do have a luggage room where you can safely store your bags, and our 24-hour reception is always available to assist you. Whenever possible, we try to assign guests to lower beds, but when the room or hostel is fully booked, it is not always possible. We appreciate your comments, as they help us improve, and we hope to welcome you again for a more comfortable stay. Kind regards, Leevin Hostel Team

Verified reviewThe location is close to the city center, the staff do their best to help, and the beds have curtains for privacy.
A very large building that really needs renovation. There are very few toilets, the beds are poorly assembled and feel like they could fall apart any moment. There was a hole in the bathroom ceiling, and in the room something seemed to be leaking from the ceiling, as a bucket was placed in the middle of the room the whole time. The building is definitely in need of serious renovation.
Dear Dejk, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re pleased to hear that you appreciated our location near the city center, the efforts of our staff, and the privacy provided by the bed curtains. At the same time, we are sorry for the negative aspects you experienced during your stay. We understand your comments regarding the condition of the building and the facilities you mentioned. Please be assured that we are already working on improvements and renovations to provide a more comfortable and reliable experience for all our guests. Your feedback is very important to us, as it helps us identify where we still need to improve. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future under better conditions. Kind regards, Leevin Hostel
