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.).

FinlandShould have more toilets + showers. The other shower for men was out of order. Beds could have curtains. Someone ate my labeled food from the fridge. I guess on the weekend there were no staff and the kitchen was a mess then.
The staff was nice. Good shower / toilet. Nice area on the roof top where you can even sun bathe if you want.

Great location, but the best part it the staff. The Brazilian Guy (Samuel?) makes the hospitality and takes care really of everything.

Czech RepublicYou had to message the staff to come and check in/check out (likely due to off-season timing and only 5 guests in the entire hostel), but it was slightly inconvenient
Clean, cheap, this was the only place in the entirety of Malta that actually had a heater to dry your clothes

NetherlandsI was never told that the deposit was 20 euros. Luckily there is an ATM next door at the bar. I would advise other travellers to bring this cash ahead of time as the ATM is private (charges extra fees). I do need to mention that the accomodation charges a surcharge for paying the deposit and city tax by card, which is actually *illegal* in the European Union and should not cost extra. I understand it's just a few cents but it's illegal. It's a bit of a party hostel and most visitors are in groups, so if you're looking for a relaxed surroundings maybe stay in a different district.
it has individual power points at every bed (british plug), you get a locker with a key provided, a towel is provided, the bed was comortable enough, airconditioned rooms, bathrooms were cleaned quite often, kitchen looked clean and modern although i didn't use it because the location is so close to restaurants and cafés. There was also a living room with a big TV.

AustraliaSome of the people in the room were staying long term, 4-8 weeks and so were a bit messy and the room was a little disorganised for some of the stay. The air con was not run often even though it was hot as well.
Great location, kitchen had all the required things in it. Was easy to sleep in after a night out, room stayed dark.

I like the hosts, they are cheerful and helpful. The place is a real gem in terms of a hostel. They follow the rules of cleanliness strictly. I would recommend this hostel to anyone who likes a neat and tidy place. This was my first experience in a hostel and I always had a fear in my mind regarding the bathroom hygiene but this hostel made it clear that even shared places can be best for a staycation as well.

DenmarkWish there were bedside lamps. Only lamp was a ceiling light. Thought I would cook dinner most days but kitchen was a bit crowded so ended up going out. Some guests were snoring a lot :)
Friendly, helpful, open and talkative staff. Had some good conversations in the evening. Place was kept very clean. Thought there would be many young party animals who would come back late and make a noise but didn't see any. Guests were considerate towards one another, and most went to bed quite early. Didn't think it was noisy in the evening as others have mentioned. You could hear heavy machinery from a nearby construction site in the morning but that's temporary.
