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.).

NetherlandsThe weather was too hot at the night which I spent there, I couldn't sleep because the ventilators in the room clearly weren't sufficient to change the climate inside. However, I also understand that it wasn't the usual heat wave or daily temperature for the city climate.

United StatesThere were people loudly partying in the street until late and one guy woke up early and his alarm went off for ten minutes while he was in the shower and then he was comically loud packing, crinkling bags and such for a long time. That's the type of thing you can't plan for though.
The staff were friendly and there was a nice common area for talking with people and making food. The bed was comfortable enough and the price was good.

Everything is amazing. There is an elevator so luggage carrying is not a problem, very secure, you can leave your stuff at the reception after checking out (which was great since our bus was in the afternoon). Generally incredible experience, staff members were very nice and helpful.

UkraineThe only comment is that the reception, and accordingly the designated space for luggage storage, are located on the first floor of the hostel, and the staircase is quite steep. Eventually we could leave the suitcase downstairs, though.
We had a private room and it fulfilled all our expectations, considering that this is a hostel (which does mean the atmosphere is rather youthful and perhaps there's an age limit for feeling comfortable in such places). The hostel is clean and cosy and feels safe. It is conveniently located within walking distance of both the city centre and Keleti train station. The staff were most welcoming and allowed us to leave the luggage prior to check-in and after checkout.

TurkeyA small warning for those staying in the summer; the rooms are spacious but there is no breeze and no air conditioning, so it is inevitable that the rooms will be quite hot during the summer.

The location was perfect. It seems a bit far from the historical centers, but I think it is important to be close to the area where life continues. You have to cover some distance anyway if you want to visit somewhere during the day, but it is much better to be able to reach the places where people hang out in the evening without going far and then return to the hostel without any hassle. The common area where the kitchen is located is very nice and useful, and it is also nice that tea and coffee are free. The hostel has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The staff is also in harmony with the facility; helpful and peaceful.

TaiwanThe location is awesome and really like the atmosphere in the hostel!!! Greenery, vintage, artistic and definitely warm and kind staffs make you feel at home. In an old building but surely clean everywhere. Provided towels and hair dryer! A little bit noisy at midnight since there are some bars but if you do not mind, I highly recommend this accommodation.

SwedenThere’s no aircon and the beds don’t have curtains, which I usually prefer, but neither was a big issue for me.
Das Nest felt like a home away from home. The location is great, and the cozy, bohemian interior—especially the loft overlooking the rooftops—makes it easy to relax. The small size of the hostel added to its charm, creating a more intimate and welcoming vibe. Everything was clean, laid-back, and the staff were super friendly. I’d definitely stay again!
