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 would say I didn't like it, but all interaction were done digitally, no human interactions. In a location surrounded by nature a human touch would make it pleasant, but I am just mentioning something missing at the stay.

Verified reviewComfort beds and showers, good food at the restaurant, will definitely come back!
Often they have loud music late in the evening or there is some loud work going on in front of the hostel in the morning

Verified reviewThe thing that I liked, was that there was no one else in my room, overall, the size the comfort and the bathroom were very pleasing, I find it definitely worth my money, you were able to check in on the iPad all by yourself, and you didn't need any staff check in. Definitely a recommendation if you're looking for a quick night sleep.
To lock up your stuff, you need a lock. I wasn't aware of needing one myself, nor did I know how to get one, however since I was alone I left the stuff next to me, so it wasn't a big deal to me but I can understand it would be a downside for some.

Verified reviewSpatious room, every bed has its own curtain and a sizeable locker. Clean and modern kitchen with cookware, large fridges. Plenty of shower space. Bike storage room in the basement. The architecturally appealing building was an old hospital with a chapel inside, now redecorated into a hostel. Supermarket nearby. Note that there's no reception, but rather a self check-in. According to my experience someone was always available on the phone for sorting things out.

Verified reviewThe room was rather spacious and clean. The beds are cleverly made with everything inside (electricity, light), so even with 6 prople in the room, you have your own private space hidden under the curtain. The boulder hold as the the last grip to get inside top bed is really funny.

Verified reviewThe location is a couple of minutes walk to the church square and another couple minutes to the train station, so very centrally located. The hostel was apparently recently renovated and you can tell that the room furnishings and bathrooms have been modernized. The 4-bed dorm is "pod style" made up of plywood boxes with a privacy curtain. It wouldn't muffle any sound from loud snorers but does provide some privacy and shielding from outside light. The pods have a rail for hanging towels or drying out clothing, a power port, and a lamp. The washroom/showers were large and clean with many toilet and shower stalls. There is a restaurant in the building and food trucks in the courtyard, but they were all closed on the day I stayed (a Tuesday).
It might have been nice to have women's and men's washrooms/showers on each floor. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but it was a little annoying to have to walk to a different floor to use the facilities. Be sure to provide your own toiletries for the shower as there aren't any provided body wash or shampoo. The dorm room can get a little warm if the weather is hot, and only one window seemed to be able to be opened.
Hello William, Thank you very much for your review. Just to address your point about the restrooms: we have facilities for both genders on each floor. You might have missed it because the small figures can look quite similar. The second window still needs to be repaired by us. You’re always welcome to come back. Best regards, Your St. Josefsheim Team

Verified reviewThe staff and facilities were great
It was quite messy and the general kitchen and toilet areas were not cleaned regularly
Dear Samuel, Thank you very much for your positive review. The kitchen and sanitary facilities are cleaned once a day. Unfortunately, we do not have the staff to carry out regular cleaning and if guests do not behave properly towards others, we can no longer control this. Depending on the group/guests, this can vary for each stay. We try our best to keep it clean. Kind regards, St.Josefsheim Team
