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.).

Great and open-minded party hostel. Located near the beach. The interior as well as the dunes themselves created a kon-tiki atmosphere.

SwedenLoud music until late (like 1/2 am) which could be heard in the dormitory downstairs. There was also water running in the pipes all night in the room, and you could clearly hear people talking outside the window.
Really cosy and colourful bar and common room. There was karaoke one night which was super fun! And the staff were lovely!

AustraliaBunk beds are a bit short so no space to sit upright on the lower bunk. No ladders to access the top bunk but you can request a ladder from staff if you need one.
I like the vibe of the place. Friendly and relaxed. Good spot very close to the beach and with a bus stop nearby. Bathrooms were very nice and the kitchen was good.

GermanyMy main issue was the noise of the bar at night, it's bar and common room mixed and the bar is open till 2 am every night. The issue is at night to get the mood up the music is turned up to a degree were you can't sleep in the dorm rooms, please make a max volume or turn it down around 11 pm. Secondly the opening of the kitchen of the common room at 8 am is a bit late especially if you have to catch an early train, I see no need for the served breakfast earlier but just the option to make myself some toast or cereal would be nice form 6 or 7 am.
Very nice staff, well equipped kitchen, great location for going to the beach. The big dorm room in the basement is quite hot and stuffy but it was okay.

GermanyThe Room with 10 other people was a bit too much for us. So next time we would book a room with less beds.
The staff in this hostel was very friendly and everything was clean. The Hostel is located very near to the beach. We liked the atmosphere of this hostel a lot and we would come back :)

NetherlandsThere was no ladder in the room to climb the stapple bed. We had to create "a ladder" with the table and the chair in the room.
The location is great. Super close to the beach and the dunes. Also, the bus stop going to Leiden is only 300m from the hostel making it very easy to go there.
