Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

DenmarkLocation is quite a walk from the centro, but not a big problem for me. It’s a bit surprising that all payments there (including day tours) have to be in cash. If card payment is allowed, that would be perfect :)
Beautiful hostel with lovely lounge and peaceful green areas. Amazing breakfast with hot dishes vary by days, made by friendly staff. Indeed the best breakfasts I have ever had in hostels so far (and I have been staying in a lots of hostels) They have lots of activities everyday too

United StatesYou can only pay in cash. The location is slightly 'far' from the city centre. It's located in a local neighborhood wether then the 'touristic' cultural city center.
This hostel has a nice relax vibe. You can attent yoga classes, play guitar, play table football or just relax in their garden. You have the option to rent bikes or book tour with them. We had a private badroom that had just enough space. Breakfast is good too

United StatesI stayed in a private room on the second floor, and I wish that there was a sheer curtain in addition to the heavy blackout curtain. The glass doors are the biggest source of natural light and fresh air, so it would have been nice to have privacy but also have light/ breeze.
The staff are super helpful and the hostel has a great community feeling. Breakfast was tasty and the hostel was very clean. I liked the yoga mats they provided and did yoga every morning on their rooftop. It felt like I was returning to a calm sanctuary after exploring the city. I'm an early bird, so I appreciated that the hostel was pretty quiet at night and everyone was very respectful.

Hong KongThey provide free breakfast which is nice. But you can't cook during breakfast time. The staff are super nice and helpful. Help to book tours and taxis and provide a lot of travel and restaurant recommendations. There is yoga class , walking tour and wrestling and cooking dinner activities. I like the wrestling night with the group it's a super fun night. I stayed in different rooms during my stay. The 4 beds female dorm which is better in ventilation. The twin bed room is stuff and I can't change the direction of the fan. So have you switch it off at night and open the door for ventilation. The 10 bed dorm is super hot until midnight and big fans keep it on all day n night bc and quite noice. The cube bed is comfortable and provides a little fan. There is a man and woman shower separately that I like.

LithuaniaAzul Cielo became my favorite hostel in Mexico! It's a very nice and cosy hostel. Very social - lots of activities going on everyday. And the oaxacan dinner was the best of them all! Friendly staff, clean rooms, quiet location. I didn't feel unsafe there even walking in the dark. I recommend this hostel to everyone! And I hope to come back there someday too
