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.).

BrazilTwo showers might make you wait a little bit to use the bathroom, but nothing that ruins the experience. The crowd might be a bit odd as well, but on my last night I actually got to meet a few people and the vibes were amazing. There is indeed noise from the pub downstairs but nothing absurd and I don’t think it goes later than ~ midnight.
Overall fair stay! Staff is actually very nice contrary to most reviews saying they’re not around - I got to meet some of them :) Sockets fairly close to each bed, big locker (just need to bring a padlock), towels for no extra fee, bathroom is also ok. It’s also clean enough and the location is almost at the border of the city centre. The walk by the river is pretty chill.

IraqIt is a shared dormitory. It was very clean. The bathrooms are also very clean. There is a box to keep your things, but you must buy a lock before you come. There is also a small bar under the residence and adjacent rooms that stay open until midnight. Loud noises.

ItalyGuy from the staff (which also Works at the bar) seemed to have invented a strange policy by which guests cannot check in after 6pm although booking.com still allows reservations. Maybe it was too extra work for the bar man/receptionist.

AustraliaOnly 2 sportsy for entire hostel and both in the one room with only 1 lock on the main door. So showers often occupied. Only 1 toilet per gender. Locker not big enough for my backpacking bag. Only given 1 lock between the 2 of us. Hostel is a 30 min walk from rain station. Very minimal contact with staff, all working in the pub. Minimal opportunity to meet other people.
Bed was comfy, big curtain around beds in dorms for privacy. Air con in room was good. Nice kitchen, well stocked. Easy walk into the city from the hostel. Nice garden and sitting area.

GermanyWe stayed at the hut in the backyard. It is very basic and not super comfortable. Due to bad insulation, you need constant air conditioning, which leads to quite a bad air. For couples it’s not very convenient.
Very nice location, perfect for exploring Ljubljana. Kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Clean bathrooms.

ArgentinaThere were quite a lot of things that didn't work out for me. There was no one at reception throughout the entire day to do the check in, I had to get help from some guys working at the bar beside the hostel. The tap in the bathroom didn't work so there was not water. They allowed someone to check into my room at 9 in the morning even though check in is at 3pm. Overall my experience was not horrible but it was not good either, I would not recommend it.
The hostel has a nice patio. The rooms have a good size, are clean and have a bathroom nearby. The location is near the city centre. I was allowed to leave my backpack before checking in.
