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 hostel has 24/7 reception staff. Therefore, you aren't provided a key to the main entrance door, only your room. But if the staff is busy inside they can take a few minutes to open the door for you which wasn't my favourite later at night to be waiting outside.
Lots of activities hosted by the staff. Great vibe overall. Pretty clean rooms and bathrooms. Common area provided beach gear for borrowing which is nice.

SloveniaCant control the people around you - some make a big mess in the bathroom and don’t clean after themselves. No avoiding that in shared bathrooms.

LithuaniaYou can't choose your roommates, it's not the staff's fault. The locker didn't lock properly, the staff knew that in advance.
The location is great, the staff is OK, it's clean, there are plenty of tools in the kitchen, coffee and tea are always available, it's safe.

United KingdomNothing! The AC could be better but as I understand they were working on fixing it asap but we still had adequate fans and ac in our room.
Great location - right next to the cathedral and 25 mins walk to the beach. For the smallest hostel in Barcelona-which I didn’t know- it’s amazing! The kitchen and living room are great, they have things going on in the evening like wine tasting where I met other travellers- the bathroom was really clean and the staff are amazing!

United KingdomShowers in the girls bathroom totally flood the whole room so make sure you've got flip flops. Because it's hot everyone sleeps with the windows open, so be aware you'll need an eye mask and earplugs because lots of glass/rubbish collection in the night which can be quite noisy - but fine if you're prepared/sleepy enough.
Amazing location, friendly staff, rooms were pretty spacious for small dorms. Air Con worked. Kitchen and Breakfast space bright and clean. Little living room really cosy - all with mini balconettes so lots of fresh air. Not sure if it was pre-primavera quiet but it wasn't too loud and people were respectful in the night. Lots of early sleepers. Free coffee, cold water, and staff were very accomodating of my broken foot.

GermanyUpon checking in the guy was rude and normally if bed is ready all hostels I have been to (50+ countries and 200 different hostels) allow prior check in especially if its like 30-40 mins but he didn’t even allow to check in until it was sharp 2 pm. Was a weird person and thankfully didn’t see him for rest of the stay. Other staff was very cool polite and friendly
