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.).

GermanyThe hostel is close to the beach, the staff are super friendly and all other guests are just chill The city center is actually easily reachable, one can walk for like half an hour along the coastal park road to get there, or by bus or even take a bike in the hostel Also because the hostel is in the residential area, loud partying and noise is forbidden after 10:30pm which was to my liking. The WiFi is there on the terrace as well as in the rooms The facilities are being cleaned daily I felt safe and comfortable there as a solo female traveler, my stay there was amazing 🤍

New ZealandNothing.
I loved that as soon as I arrived I felt like I was at home. Tia and Chris have created such a relaxed, peaceful vibe at their hostel. Chris showed me around as soon as I arrived so I knew where everything was and didn’t need to ask. The lounge area was spacious and comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, the rooms were set up really well with cosy beds. Tia was incredibly kind and accomodating the entire time, she had excellent suggestions on places to eat and visit. We had some wonderful chats which I really enjoyed.

NetherlandsNothing just the personal issue of being a light sleeper which doesnt go hand in hand with hostels in general so didnt get much sleep
Its a good hostel, how a hostel should be. Very social but chill and laid back vibes. The owners and staff are lovely, so helpfull and kind. The location is right at the beach and city. Free parking on premises which was amazing. Big very well equipped kitchen. Everything was clean and tidy. Beds were comfy. Electricity, a little shelf and locker at your bed. There are games free to use, a pool table, books etc. A lot of comfy places to sit inside and outside. Bikes to use. Felt very safe. I vibed well with the other guests. Enough showers, toilets and sinks. Never had to wait. The owners know what theyre doing as theyre travelers themselfs and I love that

ItalyIt would be nice if there was an extra bathroom as there were many people sharing just a few bathrooms. Laundry cost €10 per load.
Nice location close to the bus station, a supermarket and the beach, though further from the old town. The hostel had a really nice atmosphere but was also calm and quiet after 10 or 11pm. The kitchen was great. My friend was stung by a sea urchin and the owners were very helpful. Comfy beds.

Brazil30 minutes walking from the old town, not that close :( But is just 10 min from the Bus Station and from the Beach :)
Amazing place with friendly staff and very easy to make friends. A lot of young people. There’s a big common area where people can relax, a kitchen, a bar. Also free coffee during the morning. Room with A/C helped a lot in summer.

IrelandThis is the top 2 hostels I've ever stayed in. The owner is a super nice and funny lady, very helpful and kind. The girls that work there are also very approachable. The hostel has everything you need and I loved the hammocks in the garden. If you are in doubt, just book it!

United KingdomVery friendly and sociable, there’s always big personalities around, and I felt like I could find new friends really easily; everyone is super chill and easy going. Honestly waaaaay better than “party hostels” I’ve stayed at before. Tia, Chris, Nina, and all the volunteers really bring the place to life!

PolandThey have all you need in the hostel! Comfortable beds in air-conditioned bedrooms with power supply sockets everywhere. Lots of bathrooms with hot water. Big leisure place with hammocks and many sitting places. Huge well-equipped kitchen has four double-burner stoves. They keep night hours really silent and super-polite staff serve you morning coffee for free! Hostel stays in walking distance from central bus station, supermarket and nice beach. A little farther is to the old town.

My favourite would be the welcoming🌼 friendly, warm vibes, cosy, free yourself, immerse into serenity kind of the environment The cleanliness, the atmosphere, the warm hearted welcome, the sweetest and most energetic good mornings, comfort, convenience to near proximity bus station to the beach that's hardly 5 minutes walk, the love you see in every small thing is something I cherished Even though I have been backpacking and visiting hostels to airbnbs throughout Europe with very big names like AO, this visit was special. Value for money equals value for life at this place, not being Zen or anything, but it's the people who made this place with every little drop of love, tears, sacrifices and you see the reflections everywhere.
