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 reviewGood price and location Only three beds per dorm Friendly staff
In August the room was very warm. I found sleeping using a fan difficult. All the toilets are locked for each room, so if a roommate is taking a shower etc. you have to go downstairs and borrow a key for the toilet there. Would be better if they had at least one spare up stairs that everyone could use.

Verified reviewI will come back and indicate this place to friends. It is an hostel, so a simple structure, but it has all you need while travelling. And it is in the center of Modena: in 5 minutes you can walk everywhere. The interior of the building is to be seen: nice murals are everywhere. The staff is really welcoming.
Nothing to change.

Verified reviewThe rooms were very comfortable and large. Had a large locker which I could store my bags in. Bathrooms were pretty clean and nice. Each bathroom varies a bit in size but overall they are good. The kitchen is great, two large fridges, two cook tops and an oven make cooking very easy and enjoyable.
Being peak summer the lack of air conditioning or proper cooling was definitely missed. There were no freezers for guests to use as far as I was aware. Not really an issue but I like having a place to store ice cream.

Verified reviewThe young receptionists were kind and very helpful. Especialy the girl with straight hear. I feel bad as I did not catch her name. The place was convenient being close to the train station and the city center.
The missing air conditionner, walking each time with the keys to the bathroom, the bed and the pillow were not confortable enough. Some noise from outside bothered me.

Verified review- Stuff was very helpful and nice. Big kitchen. For around 25 Euro per night, perfectly fine, I actually wouldn't like to pay much more.
- Very basic hostel. Old and certainly not charming. - There seems to be a lack of alternatives, which benefits them, I tried to book another night on the return trip and the price was close to 50 Euro per night, which would be ridiculous for what you get.

Verified reviewIts access to the train station was one thing that I liked, and above all the staff were very great and supportive. The rooms were barely
The room was just bare, with no comfort. No provision for guests to make coffee for themselves. Then for the room rate, one expected to have air-conditioning facility, particularly now that it is summer

Verified reviewThe staff was super friendly and helpful. They gave us a ticket to park for free on the streets around the hostel and they proposed to store our luggage on the day of check-out. The facility really surprised us: the room and the private toilet were perfectly clean, the hostel itself was very nice, there were many unexpected services, for example there is a guard available 24h to let you in at night or anything you need. We are very satisfied with our experience
The only aspect that we can criticise is the elevator: it was dirty and it smelled bad inside

Verified reviewFantastic location, helpful staff, comfy bed in a well spaced 3-bed female dorm with secure private locker.
That the toilet /shower room could be accessed from above, as in you're in a large cubicle with exposed sides on each side. I felt a slight invasion of privacy when I could hear a couple next door taking a shower and talking. You can also hear people using the toilet. A bit too on top of one another for my liking, but for the price, it's something I was willing to accept. Also, the room can get very warm and stuffy when the weather is hot, minimal breeze flowing through - 1 fan available per bed.

Verified reviewI like when the place has small things such as shelf in the shower, so you can put your shower products, hooks in the shower area to hang towels, shelfs to support your products. The room also had one reading light, hangers in the cabinet, one fan for each person. The place is very quiet, Modena is quiet in general. I really enjoyed my stay. The receptionist was really nice explaining everything.
Nothing really to complain, maybe the lift was a bit weird, the buttons take some time to work.
