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.).

DenmarkVery limited warm water in the showers
Amazing staff, good vibes and great for young travelers (18-25ish), central location and overall very good facilities for the price. The Hostel also planned an affordable pub crawl with great value.

United StatesThe rooms get so hot. We had two fans going and the windows wide open and couldn’t get the place to a normal temperature.
I loved the location, easy to get just about anywhere in/around Porto. The patio was a nice space to relax and the common area was a great way to meet people.

BelgiumSmall mixed dormitory in this heat. Some people did not clean after themselves after using the toilet but that's not the staff's fault but needs to be mentioned. Also the lock of the toilet in the lounge area needs to be fixed, too hard to unlock
Great staff, great lounge area/bar and terrasse to hang out, clean room but too small for six people in my opinion especially mixed. The fact that there was a possibility to use a private shower was a relief for me. Overall good value

United KingdomMy bed was in the eaves in the attic on level 3. The ceiling was low and banged my head twice! No windows, only electric blower which wasn’t big enough to cool the room. It was very hot even in June! Toilets and showers on level 2. Cold water in the shower. Toilet broken for over 24 hours.
Located in a good area with bars. Had a garden to sit out in. Friendly staff.

Netherlands-wifi at second floor not working -the young staff members had all four of them outside their cigaret smoke moments together. I hope they will stop smoking for their own health and realise that they have also a sort of role model to the in general young hostel guests. Obama said " yes we can" ;-) - the weather in Porto: only rain
relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and helpfull staff the modern , colourfull aspect at entrance

Good hostel, perfect for solo travelers. Great localization. Room was clean, bed was ok. Hostel had lots of entertrainments like pub crawls or daily tours. You can meet some great people in the lounge, where you have also bar. The personnel was very friendly and helpful.

RussiaOur room was the one on the last floor. The ceiling was really low, so you need to fold in order to get to your bed. Some bathrooms were out of order, so in the morning you had to wait for a shower. The Wi-Fi upstairs was a bit slow and there were no socket plugs enough for everyone (had to charge my phone by unplugging the lamp in other part of the room). We went in September and in the room it was quite hot and stale because there was just one window and more than 10 beds. They tried to solve this problem by putting some portable fans, but in that case we couldn't charge our gadgets.
The staff was really nice and people were friendly. The breakfast was cheap and had various options. The best about the place was its location - really close to all the sights. Nice experience, but I have seen better hostels, sorry.
