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.).

HungaryA lamp on the desk would have been great.
Great place to stay even if one comes to the city for conference. There are enough fridges and private rooms and spaces. It doesn't feel crowded at all.

FinlandI did not like the bathrooms. It was difficult to take a shower since there was no base on the wall to place the shower on!! Also, there was no place to dry your towel (or, maybe, I did not find it)
I liked the price more than anything. Also, cleanliness was quite okay and the location near a perfect shopping center and central bus & train station was great.

United KingdomNot a fault of the hostel but another guest set off the fire alarm at 07.00 in the morning. It was very loud and surely made you get out of bed.
Excellent location, great value for money. The room was small, basic but clean and comfortable and all you needed for a short stay. Staff very friendly and helpful.

FinlandEverything was a bit run-down and the olace was a bit gloomy; with some maintenance work and decoration, the place would be much nicer and cozier. For instance, there were no bedside tables, the bed and pillows were not great, and the shower was slightly broken.
The location is great, and the hostel has everything you need if you're just looking for a place to sleep for a few nights. It was clean, and the staff were attentive.

AustraliaNot that it has anything to do with the hostel itself, but it was a little bit eerie as I felt like I was the only guest staying there. Maybe just an off peak thing. The kitchen was really well equipped although strange rules on not being able to cook fish or raw chicken? I understand the smell aspect maybe for fish but chicken?! What else is a traveller meant to cook?
The single room was perfectly equipped for a solo guest, with a fridge, small desk and hanging space. Bed very comfy too and room perfect temperature for January. The property was extremely clean, and I was given the impression the bathrooms were cleaned very regularly. It’s not often that bathrooms do not smell like urine!

Straight away the reception personel is very friendly and helpful and makes everything very clear and easy for you to understand and enjoy. There's a large kitchen and an even larger lounge room to meet other guests and relax.

Good central location. Very good value for money. Clean. The hostel seem to have been renovated since my last stay a few years ago, so the facilities were in good shape. I was given my room many hours before the official check-in time without extra charge. Soft bed and tv in the room.

NetherlandsThe staff was very accommodating with a late (1 am) check-in due to a late arriving flight. I was positively surprised by the cleanliness of the bathrooms. The rooms are small and simple, but completely adequate for the money. The location is very central, close to the train station and all central landmarks like the Domkyrka or the Botanical Garden. Bonus point for keeping our suitcases until 5 pm the next day, at no additional price, so we could explore the city on foot before heading out of Uppsala.

TurkeyYou cant open the window all the way. It has a narrow opening. The seats in the kitchen are in bad shape and old. You cannot sit comfortably and the seats have a slight slope but thats okay. My clothes were in the dryer like 3h but were still damp when I took them out. I guess its not so good at drying thick clothes. But these are just nitpicking. Generally good, price/performance.
Bathrooms were cleaned daily and you can find always clean. No urine smell. Rooms are okay. You can only eat in kitchen and kitchen is also clean. Can open the doors with your keycard. Oh and also washing machine and dryer costs like 60 sek (including soap).

Finlandthat the man at the reception keeps an eye on what his guests are doing and not on his own life, and if you want to meet people through a dating app and you want to meet them at the hotel, you will not be able to meet anyone there, since for the man at the reception you are doing something illegal.
I liked that it had a kitchen with all the necessary utensils and that my room had my private refrigerator and the hotel has multiple restrooms.
