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.).

BelgiumA bit empty for such a great place. The showers. Suggested improvements: new showers' head system. Individual curtains around the bunk beds, which some other YH have. Increases privacy and protection against light, especially at night.
Friendly staff, modern building, historic center nearby, public transport & bike nearby. Good quality breakfast. Clean and spacious.

Netherlands- The decoration is a bit sterile, not a lot of personality. Cold and grey. - You have to make your own bed and bring sheets downstairs on checkout. - I get having to rent bath towels, but there was no handtowels or paper towels in the bathroom.
- No nonsense hostel, you get what you paid for. - Great location and nice staff. - Bread, ceral, yogurt and coffee machine for breakfast.

BelgiumThe shower. The water comes out in a very sharp manner.
Modern, centric, clean, practical, functional, yet nothing essential was missing. Appreciated the ecolabel. The staff is super friendly and smiling. Especially a blond women who speaks perfectly Dutch, French and English. Cleaning staff also kind. Very good breakfast, plenty of teas and herbal infusions, also a good variety of quality bread and breadspreads.

South AfricaIn order to save water the showers were on a timer and you needed to continuously push the button to keep the water running. If only the timer was 10 seconds longer! It would have been a lot more convenient. But this is really not a problem at all.
The rooms were very big and the toilet was separate from the shower, which is very convenient when sharing a room with people. The location is very nice and within walking distance from the city-centre. The hostel was clean and breakfast was good.

DenmarkThe building has many large windows and poor ventilation. Our room was very stuffy although the temperatures outside were not particularly hot. The shower was very temperamental and had to be activated at very short intervals. All in all, the value for money could have been better.
The hostel is in a quiet street in walking distance to the historic centre. Everything is functional bordering on basic (breakfast, rooms, communal facilities).
