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 reviewI booked accommodation at the Glycerin Hostel in Nitra for my sometimes picky son. His reaction pleasantly surprised me, and that is why I decided that I would also use this hostel in the future. The lady at the reception was very nice on the phone and my son himself said that it was pleasant to talk to her. According to my son, the hostel itself is great and compared to other hostels around the world, at a very good level and for those who decide to save some money on accommodation and want to sleep in an environment that is clean, pleasant, comfortable but also safe for a great price per night, my son highly recommends it. Thank you for your service, we wish you all the best and many good and loyal customers ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Verified reviewThe hostel was safe, clean,great staff member from Serbia and very helpful. There is a 24 hour petrol station 5 minutes away, similar to a McDonald's restaurant and also the huge Galeria shopping mall with it's very good foodcourt. Also buses into and back from the bus stops nearby. Otherwise about 25 minutes walk into the centre. Rooms plenty of space and good lockers. Shower's were good and toilet's plentiful.
Strangely the kitchen area is locked along with the reception area from 10am until 4pm so you can't access any food, drink or information.

Verified reviewIt's quiet and clean. The lady who works there was super friendly and helpful. Close to a huge Tesco for food.
It's a bit out of town tucked away in an industrial estate but still quiet. Be aware you won't be able to check in or access the hostel before 4 pm.

Verified reviewClean, comfortable, good kitchen and I had very nice view of castle .
About a 30 minute walk to town however you can cross the highway ( i know it's a bit risky but quiet spots happen ) and walk along river on cycling and walking path thst leads to the amazing nitra park with views of castle. The path goes all the way round to the great promenade mall . Great views of castle along the way.

Verified reviewUncomplicated check-in. Calm Hostel, shared bathroom was okay.
It definitely was not the cleanest. The pictures are really misleading, the room looks much more run down in real life.

The walls are paper thin so if your neighbour decides to call their mom you will hear every single word she tells him :)

Verified reviewThe room was clean. It's a great option for a stay for one night.
The owner didn't speak english at all eventhough it was written in the description. So communication was really bad. Also the location is really unconvenient if you are here for exploring Nitra.

Verified reviewThe room was nicely warm and tidy, and the bathroom even had a separate toilet room inside. There was a common kitchen/dining area with plates and cutlery.
The room had a hint of some initial smell to it, and there was no proper sitting area for work (no chair, no desk). But it was an all-in-all comfortable room.
