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.).

LuxembourgIf you don't have a valid ID card, don't forget your passport!! We read the information given (bring own towel, toiletries etc) but there was no mention of ID being needed. We live in Luxembourg so don't carry our passports all the time and we were only saved here by the fact that my husband had photos of our passports on his phone. Lux driving licence wasn't accepted. Breakfast was disappointing, poor choices of cold food and there were no warm options. not even a boiled egg... Pillows were uncomfortable.
Great location (we came for a concert at the Rockhal, so it was very convenient). Dinner was pretty good (cordon bleu) and reasonably priced (also free water) and the person who served us was very nice. This was our first Luxembourg Youth Hostel experience so we didn't realise we needed to make our own beds etc but we didn't mind this at all, it's a good idea and you are given a packet with clean sheets and a pillowcase at reception. Reasonable shower.

RussiaVery noisy — the windows face directly onto the train station. Bring earplugs. No soap at all — not even anything to wash your hands with, which is hard to justify. I would prefer having soap included in the price rather than breakfast. Also, I would like to have curtains by the beds for more privacy.
Good location, comfortable beds, clean

Hong KongGood: just next to train station and good connection to city Center. Also, a bridge goes to the park and minet trail. Ecological, so no soap to wash hand. Spacious, big locker, a desk and chair in room. Good staff and simple and basic breakfast which is valuable to the room rate. Bad: because it’s just next to train station, it will be noisy but I have ear plug so I am good to sleep.

United StatesRight near train station so very convenient. Kinda far from Lux City though. Staff was very friendly and they offered great Bofferding beer in the bar. I didn’t see many young people but it was during the week in April so that’s probably why. It was mostly older people. They offer several singles which are spotless. Bring your own pillow though. Very clean. Nice bar staff. Overall, I had a good visit.

GermanyIt was a bit strange that you need to prepare the bed yourself, but it's a hostel. Only, they could mention it. Also, when you book a separate room and there are no towels, it's a little bit disturbing. They need to mention it more clearly. Overall a good stay and will book again.
Great location, big room and bathroom, cleanliness is OK. Good value for money and OK for one or 2 nights.

United StatesThe pillows did not give any support for my head and neck as they were super thin. I wish bar soap or hand soap would have been provided for free to wash hands after using the WC.

NetherlandsWould've loved some privacy blinds for each bunk bed! Pillow was old of poor quality, time to replace those. Was pretty warm in the room, either a fan or ventilating the hallways better would be a good solution.
Really friendly and multilingual staff. New, modern and clean hostel with spacious rooms and a large locker for each guest. Great location right next to the train station, a short walk from the city centre and a 15-20 min walk to the Kulturfabrik conference centre. Beds were fairly comfortable, shower was great. Nice to have opening windows. Even though our room faced the train station it didn't really bother me at night even with the windows open - there's barely running any trains at night and earplugs work a charm. Metal shutters instead of curtains in front of the window was surprising but actually worked well. Breakfast buffet being included is great, especially since they had 5 vegan spreads and soy milk.
