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.).

AustraliaThe bed in one of our two rooms with ensuite was a tad too hard. An air freshener and some hooks in the bathroom would be helpful and a luggage rack to be able to open up a suitcase off the floor.
For a quick overnight stay, we definiley got value for money here. both our rooms had space, a kitchenette and double bed, tv and our own bathroom, heating was superb especially as it rained the whole time we were out. Place was easy to find and quick to check in at.

AustraliaAs an older woman traveling alone, I sometimes felt uncomfortable with the groups of young men hanging around all the common areas. Also despite having a fridge, microwave & kettle, the room had not one single piece of cutlery, plates cups or anything.
Great value for money, less than half the cost of hotels in the area. Very basic accommodation, you get what you pay for. But it has everything you need for a night or two.

SwitzerlandUnfortunately, there was a lot of smoking, including cannabis, in front of all the houses and on the roof terrace. It seemed to me that cannabis is legal in Sydney and you can get it right in front of the house without any problem. Alcohol was also flowing in large quantities. For a night or two, this wouldn't have bothered me much, but after 4 days, I'm glad I don't have to keep pushing my way through a party and past dealers in front of the house every evening to get into the house. It's a shame, otherwise I really liked the area and the buildings.

AustraliaThere isn’t enough room in the kitchens for the amount of guests cooking. People are literally queuing at dinner time causing the kitchen to be a mess because you can’t clean up properly. Would be amazing if the addressed this or added another kitchen. Too much smoke in the common areas. Was difficult to find somewhere to eat outside without smoking.
Great location. Rose on reception goes above and beyond.

AustraliaThe bed wasn't the most comfortable and the room didn't look like it did on the bookings page but we were still happy with what we got. We were excited to see we had a kettle and microwave and we werent expecting - but they didn't come with any mugs or plates or anything.
The location and hostel were nice, not far from the CBD and was well equipped for our needs. They offered a lot of activities and communicated well on the App.
