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.).

CanadaShower could've been hotter I guess? No complaints otherwise - loved it.
Such marvelous vibes at this hostel. Amazing location right in the middle of Hopkins - and a literally 1 minute walk out the back gate to a nice beach. Helpful owner who gave us recommendations and also was generous with some medicine for my boyfriend (who was in pain). Adorable private room with a big fan and comfortable beds. Great common area in the middle with chairs, hammocks, a kitchen to use, and lots of books to peruse. Phenomenal.

United KingdomSome of the staff could do with cracking a smile every now and then (except Alison who was very friendly!), but they were helpful albeit reluctantly. The whole place needs a good lick of paint. It’s tired and some things are broken eg the locks for your padlock to go on the larger drawers. There are a few simple maintenance jobs plus a coat of paint which would bring this place up to its full glory!
It’s a lovely vibe with hammocks everywhere and a clean kitchen and shared bathroom. The beds were comfortable and the bunks were very high (with great steps up) and substantial so you weren’t too bothered by others fidgeting!

United KingdomAll good😁
The room was spacious,quiet and clean. The bed was comfortable. Kitchen area was good. Plenty of outside space. Coffee and water available. Information board handy and close to food options and ATM. Easy to hitch a lift to most places from the junction but bus routes at main junction if you needed. Taxi option too if that's your thing. Some decent hikes not too far away. All in all a pleasant stay.
