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.).

FranceThe property was self check in so I never interacted with any staff. It wasn’t a great place for solo travelers to meet others. It’s located up a hill about a 30 minute walk from the sea. There’s only 1 male and 1 female bathroom. The air conditioning is set to 26°C and only on during specific hours.
The hostel has an amazing garden terrace where you can chill. It’s not far from the main bus station and the new town.

BelgiumIt can get a bit noisy when people insist on using the shared bathroom & shower in the middle of the night, talking loudly, but being a hostel, that is to be expected, that s more to do with the lodgers than the hostel.
The room was very cosy & clean, with nice shutters & blinds to keep the light out. The garden is perfect & well kept. The manager keeps a close eye and fixes any problems that occur immediately.

ArgentinaOn the upper floor, where we stayed, there were only two full bathrooms for all the rooms, which felt insufficient. During our stay, the bathrooms were never vacant -we always had to wait for one to become available. The terrace with tables and chairs is beautiful, but since it is directly adjacent to three rooms, it can become a noise issue late at night. We experienced guests chatting there for hours and even taking phone calls well past midnight. The same happened in the living-dining area, where conversations and activity could be heard beyond quiet hours. We also overheard loud disputes in the bathroom right across from our room (for example, about how long people were taking), along with a lack of consideration when people slammed doors going in and out. Although there are signs reminding guests of house rules and proper behavior, some people either don’t read them or simply ignore them. A clear example of this is the quiet hours policy, which unfortunately was not respected at all. In our case, this was particularly frustrating because we had to leave the hostel at 6:30 a.m. for our flight, so we needed to get a good night’s sleep. Unfortunately, we slept very little, which made the noise much harder to overlook than it might have been otherwise. We still appreciate the staff’s efforts, and we believe that with a few adjustments, this hostel could offer a much more peaceful and comfortable experience for all guests.
We truly appreciated the friendly service, as well as the room itself -spacious, air-conditioned, and in good condition. Before our arrival, we received clear directions on where to park our car in a public parking lot just a few meters from the entrance, which was very convenient. We also valued the well-equipped kitchen, which had everything needed for preparing simple meals.

GermanyThe hostel is a 2-stories house very well-taken care of that mixes normal furniture with with renovated, classic one. Each floor has its own kitchen, living room and female/male bathroom. The garden is really big and spacious. The staff working at Hostl, from the manager to the cleaning lady, are super nice and attentive, really eager to help and super sweet to talk to. The location is in the Old Town, next to the popular Muse restaurant with great views of Paphos. It's a quite area but in 5min walking distance your are at the heart of the Old Town. Not only I recommend it but I would totally go back again! Thanks a lot for everything :)

NetherlandsThe noise made by the guests during late evening (mobile phone on, ringing everytime with messages, alarm constantly everyday.I think this is a lack of respect and this should be reinforced by the host. It was also very uncomfortable that one women brought a men inside of the room at 1pm. This is unacceptable. I booked a Female dorm!
The female dorm is good despite is a bit small for 6 people

United StatesSECOND ALERT: Within minutes of posting my review, the owner wrote me on Whatsapp (he had no permission to do so) & told me I was negatively affecting his business & needed to change my review . I told him that was not acceptable business policy & asked him to stop harassing me. Then he told me that "he could see why I left a 3 star now that he'd chatted with me," inferring I was a jerk. Facts. End of the story. BUT I felt bad, so I changed my review so his business wouldn't suffer. I was imagining this poor family man, struggling to survive... I heard children screaming crying at 5 a.m. above my head (which I kindly didn't mention in the review) & was concerned for those kids. But since he's so quick to complain about me changing my review to a 7 from a 3, maybe I should change it BACK... And I will, sir, if you don't let this be. You're making your business look extremely unprofessional. You are embarassing yourself. No professional acts this way. It is not okay EVER to contact a guest on Whatsapp re a review. Ever. Stop it. Don't ever do that again. ALERT: if you leave negative feedback for this property, they will message you instantly via WhatsApp and threaten you and disparage you. And ask that you change the review. You can’t trust the reviews on this property. My original review and the reason for the two star because I didn’t sleep at all.Two women in the room banded together and refused to turn on the air conditioner at night, going so far as to hide the remote control. The other 3 of us laid awake on top of the covers sweating all night. Air conditioning should not be advertised if some guests can refuse to allow other guests access. Cyprus is EXTREMELY hot in July. It was far too hot to force all of us to lay awake sweating all night because you're from a nordic country and don't believe in air conditioning (and think it makes you sick). So..be prepared to fight for your right not to fry.
A dleightful garden, tidy facilities, and great energy. The Wifi was also fast and reliable. The locaton was great, close to many nice restaurants.

Hong Kong- The number of guest: bathroom ratio is not ideal, but I wake up early so not a big problem for me. - One (or two) socket with power strip provided in the room. but not individual sockets next to the beds, which maybe bothersome for some. - Some trays for soap in the bathroom would be great.
- The location is great, 5min walk from the bus station where you have buses to everywhere in Paphos kr even to other cities in Cyprus. - Its always happy to see guests comments are valued, during my stay, staffs were busy setting up the lockers in the dorm room, lockers are now available! Yay. - Huge garden, but limitied shaded areas. Foundation of pavilion was seen, would be a great place for leisure once the pavilion is completed.
