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 reviewNice and cosy hostel with a very helpful staff, especially Jessica. The bed was extremely comfortable! All bathrooms are clean. And all needs for cooking are in the kitchen. The bus stop infront of the hostel, you need N5

Verified reviewJackie was very friendly and kept the hostel clean all the time! I really enjoyed conversation with her and other guests :) Although it was a little bit far from the city centre, it was very close to a supermarket which is opened 24 hours, so very convenient.
I cannot think of any negative things about this hostel.

Verified reviewAn affordable place to sleep for a one night stay if you have a car to park and don’t want to pay a fee. Good if you don’t care where you sleep as long as it’s decent (and has good reviews). Bed seemed clean and comfortable enough, and guests were quiet and polite.
The location was in a strip mall, up a driveway to a second floor near a vape store and some other random shops. Not very close to city center if that’s what you’re looking for. The door code was finicky and sometimes didn’t work.

Verified reviewThe hostel was very clean and tidy. The facilities were well equipped. As the beds are covered with a curtain you can feel like you have your own space which is very nice in a hostel.

Verified reviewFor exactly one night of sleep, it is very good. Very clean, very comfortable and nice lounge. Very responsive staff and helpful.
LOCATION!! Very far from city center and bus stop. It will take about 10 mins walk from any bus stop even your pickups r not close by. If you have a car no problem at all. 🙂 But if you don't, then the walk with luggage can be quite trying.

Verified reviewThe kitchen was very well equipped, there was even some free stuff to use (but we did not). The bathroom was clean, enough toiletts, the common room was also very nice. There were curtains on the beds to ensure privacy.
It is quite far from the center if you want to go sightseeing, but on the other hand it can be a nice walk. Otherwise it was all good.
