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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

United KingdomNo towels provided which although didn't really matter, I hadn't realised this until it was time for a shower, so I had to use a t-shirt to dry myself. The pillow on the bed was like a sheet of paper, I had to fold it about 3 times to make it deep enough for me to sleep on.
We stayed here whilst attending the NW200 racing, there was a lockable courtyard so our bikes were safe and sound at night time. Rooms were clean and comfortable enough for our stay

MexicoWe had to wait a bit to get our room, the hostal was completely empty. Although we did say we were arriving a few hours later than we actually did so no biggie.
It's location is great right in the middle of we're I'd think you'd end up finding yourself while visiting Bushmills.

I liked that the location was convenient. I liked that the hostel was quiet and very easy going. I also liked the fact that there was a smoking area that kept us dry :)

NetherlandsThe interior desperately needs some TLC. Also not too much atmosphere.
The location is excellent, right at the busstop, which makes it a great place to explore the causeway coast. With a supermarket and cafes on the spot, you're all set for a great stay.

PolandInterior design is very old and outdated. You feel like back in 80s. They don't provide towels in private room which is, in my opinion, unusual. Loud at night - you can hear other guests on the corridor. No proper hangers in the bathroom and around the room, no storage place.
Great location, bus stop is in front of the hostel

United KingdomLack of power sockets. There were some only near the bottom beds. In other hostels the beds had full curtains, for 100% privacy and protecting from the morning light.
Nothing in particular. There was a public area with TV, which I didn't use, and seemed nice for meeting somebody new.

GermanyThe kitchen was at times a bit messy, mostly because other guests were leaving their food, so kind of to be expected from a shared kitchen.
Everything I expected from a youth hostel, very nice and helpful staff and overall good experience staying there. The size of the room for 4 people was more spacious than expected. Also nice to have the opportunity to cook for yourself in the (shared) kitchen
