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.).

VenezuelaUnfortunately, it is the only hotel in town and their price seemed a little steep compared to other hotels and hostels I stayed at in Iceland.
The beds were nice, the kitchen was clean and the bathroom was clean too. Spacious rooms and mine at least had a sink in it, which was nice.

AustriaDjupivogur and Framtid Hostel were a positive surprise! The small town was lovely, the hostel very clean and well organized. The receptionist at the Framtid Hotel where we got our key from was very friendly and considerate as well. I also thoroughly enjoyed the view out of our huge window right at the Sea.

United StatesThe shower controls were nearly impossible to regulate. The dining area with only 3 small tables was small for so many people staying there & sharing it. The kitchen could use more utensils, cooking pots & pans and draining area for so many people.
Kitchen & room were spacious and clean. Bathrooms were of a good size and clean.

Great rooms with two shared bathrooms. One with a shower and one without. Sink in the room and a quiet area. Perfect as a layover stop. Not sure about the rest of the town but the pool is across the street and great food at the restaurant.

SwedenSeveral families with small kids were staying there together with us and they created all kinds of mess, which was a bit frustrating. But of course it has nothing to do with the hostel itself, just our bad luck.
Nice place that covers all your basic needs for 1-night stay. It is situated almost in the middle of the town, but it is very quiet outside. Kitchen is nice for cooking all kinds of simple meals, you can even brew coffee there (manually) if you have coffee with you. Shared shower and toilet are clean and decent. Rooms have wardrobe and a sink, which is very comfortable. Good and not very expensive place.

LithuaniaIf the hostel is full though I can see it being a little bit overcrowded since the kitchen is not that big. But it was great during our stay!
Very pleasant staff. Easy early checkout. The hostel itself was quiet when we arrived there was only other couple staying. Everything was clean and nothing was missing. Despite the hostel looking old it was good value for money. When we stayed it was quiet and everything was there make our meals and make ourselves comfortable. Also we were pleasantly surprised by early working geothermal pool nearby. It was great way to start the day!
