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.).

South AfricaThe nearest bus stop or public transport is quite a distance from the actual Hostel. Mixed hostel rooms just means males.
Being my first experience in a hostel, I did expect a lot of people, this was not the case. Although the room was quite, the lounge/common area did have a few people which was nice. Bed was soft and clean. A basket is provided for the showers which is nice. Basins were tidy and hairdryer was good. Free ear plugs and toothbrush was very much appreciated. There is space for large luggage in the room with a locker for valuables.

The guests at this hostel are very harmonious. The bed frames are made of wood, so the sound when turning over is very faint. The shared toilets and bathrooms are also very clean.

GermanyExtremely thin-walled People don't care about the "no noise after 10p.m. rule", so I often had a hard time to sleep (there's nothing the hostel can do about it, but the problem is ampflified by the thin walls)
Unlike in other hostels I had a lot of space for my stuff, because it's not just a the bed with a curtain, but a whole small room (divided by curtains) - gives some nice privacy Really nice lounge spaces in the 3rd and 10th floor

AustraliaLocation is a bit further from the main area and transport - you may think it is fine, but during winter with record snowfall, it was difficult to carry all the luggage and not slip on the ice.
I asked if I could leave my luggage for an extra day as I was spending it in an onsen town, and they were able to accommodate me, it was much appreciated!

JapanThe price during snow fest is absolutely more than the accommodation is worth. With 8 people to a room, over 10,000 yen a night is very pricey. I understand everything is expensive during this busy time, and I’m sure the value of this hostel is better in the off season, but even 6,000-8,000 yen per night would have been much more reasonable.
The bunks themselves were spacious and the bedding provided was very cozy. They included a decent sized lock box inside and hangers. The facilities were very clean especially considering how many guests use the space, and the 10th floor lounge was an incredible spot. The pizza place on the 1st floor is delicious! The staff were very kind and helpful.

QatarWe had a 4 person room and the storage space was very lacking, with only hangers on a rail on the wall. Would have been good for 1 night stay but we stayed 4 nights. Walls were thin and conversations next door could be heard.
Facilities were good, with washing machines and dryers onsite, a large communal lounge and kitchen. Lots of convenience stores close by and malls and restaurants just a short walk away.

JapanThere wasn't much space between the door and the ladder leading to my hostel. Aside from that, I had no other issues and enjoyed my stay.
The price was very cheap and really helped me with my one month stay in Japan. It allowed me to see the sights in Hokkaido without being so far from places to get food or the train station.

SingaporeThe curtains don't reach all the way at the top. If the other guest decides to be in considerate and on it in the middle of the night. Sleep can be disturbed. Lights in the toilets and bathrooms turn off automatically if no movement is sensed. Frustrating as I cannot stay still in the toilet for mote than 2 mins or so.
Breakfast was okay. Has abit of everything. Space is for the cabin is quite spacious. There is aire purifier in the shared room. They provided earplugs which is a plus.

CanadaThe pillows and matresses were rather stiff and the thin walls meant you could hear the neighboring dormitories as well. As a light sleeper this made it difficult to soundly sleep so I really only dozed in and out for several hours.
The location, showers and overall price were excellent! The staff was friendly and there was English paperwork available for me. I speak Japanese well enough but reading is difficult and always using a machine translator is embarrassing so having pre-translated forms was nice.

Germany...some toilets were also quite dirty. It was during the snow festival season, so I guess it was also a lot of people there, which might increase the chances of facilities getting dirty more easily and faster, but since the prices were also very hight, I would have wished that at least there would be a bit more effort to keep it clean.
I loved that you have a big space for yourself and not just some capsule-like bed to sleep. It was also very comfortable. It was mostly clean, but...
