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.).

United KingdomAs like many hostels, rooms, bathrooms. Some extra hooks put up everywhere to hang clothes up would be a big help. Also this bathroom didn't have a proper lock on it, something's in this place need abit of attention.
Location was great, nice little room, snacks available to buy downstairs if arriving back late after everything else has closed. Good idea.

FinlandThe walls are a little thin so you can quite easily hear people outside.
Everything! The owner contacted me via WhatsApp before, and he was so nice to have a good check in experience. The place only has 5 rooms, it's not crowded at all. The rooms are also decorated and it feels cozy. Good location. Has a small self operating kiosk + coffee machine with fair prices. Also, there's free hot water and a microwave available. For the price I paid, it's definitely one of the best accommodations I've been.

FinlandMy room wasn't properly cleaned as I could see some spider nets and the floor felt a bit dirty. Though the bed sheets were fresh so I didn't mind that much. Also it smelled a bit like cigarettes but I understand that it's an older house and if the smell is stuck in the walls it's impossible to get 100 % rid of the smell.
The owner, even though I never met him face to face, was really friendly and responded quickly through Whatsapp. I really appreciated the opportunity to store your luggage in the place after check out. The bed was comfortable and the location good and near the old town (I didn't really mind the climb since I only did it twice during my visit). All in all worth the price, and a good option for a short visit☺️

Saudi ArabiaBased on personal experience, I just struggled to reach the location, it is an uphill location, so if you are carrying luggage, it will be a little struggle especially since some of the path roads are made of granite. There is only 1 toilet and bath available for the 6 rooms in the house. Not the property's fault but, 1 guest is rude and has a very bad manner, he keeps knocking on the door of the toilet and keeps asking how long it would take to finish using the bathroom. This may ruin a trip because of the limited toilet and bath.
The host is well-appreciated and answers quickly via whatsapp, the room is also perfect. The location is near to mostly tourist spot.

ItalyThe price is affordable but unfortunately the structure is really old and run down, poorly maintained and not exactly clean. Furniture, floors, carpets and bathroom in very poor condition. The photos do not reflect reality.
The location is good, only 10-15 minutes walk from the center although all uphill. The host is well organized and provided me with all the information via wapp: the code to enter for the main door, directions to the room and how to pay.

United Arab EmiratesIf there is anything, I think it is the availability of restaurants in the area, though there is a pizza shop nearby.
What I like about this hostel is it is affordable and offers a lot of amenities. It is a 10 minute walk uphill and with a google map, it is not hard to find. It is in a quiet neighborhood and communication is easy with the owner even though he is not around. Snacks and drinks were available at a cheap price. There is free drinking water. Yellow fortress is a few mins walk from the property.

United KingdomAs others have mentioned the place is up an extremely steep hill which could cause problems if you're not used to hills / and or fitness level isn't so good. Don't take this message lightly. While I didn't face any problems with a toilet/shower jam. There is only one which is downstairs from the rooms.
The host/owner provided excellent communication via WhatsApp making things nice and easy. Check in and out was effortless and smooth. They had their own version of a self-service shop which was a really nice touch. The prices were also fair and not over extortionate as you might expect. My room was very spacious with a TV. The shower was nice and powerful with instant hot water. Location is really good as you're just a short walk - 4-5 minutes? - to where all the action is.
