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.).

CanadaIt is a bit overpriced for what it is. However, Holbox is an expensive place so it is to be somewhat expected. As other reviews have mentioned there are many dogs in the neighborhood that sometimes bark during the night, but with the A/C and fan inside the room you can barley hear them.
I had a lovely time at this hostel. The location is great, close to the ferry and main town but in a quiet area. The property is well maintained and clean. The external private bathroom is just a short walk away and is well lit at night. Great A/C in the room. It was nice to be able to use the shared kitchen, which was kept clean and organized. I would stay again!

GermanyThe facilities are a little on the older side, so the bathroom was not the newest but ok to use. The sheets seemed a little stained but I guess it is not a 3*hotel, so all fine.
I stayed 3 nights in a double room and liked the garden of the hostel. The room was spacious and functional. Staff was friendly. Good location.

SlovakiaOnly annoying thing during our entire stay was a dog, wich belongs to the hostel. he was barking early in the morning, in the evening, during the day - all the time and since we were traveling with kid, the dog woke our kid up everyday and it was a nightmare for us as parents, ruined our day :(
Located in a quite area, with green garden and hammocks, excellent paradise indeed. The staff was super nice, good quality of cleanliness, kitchen was convenient, shops and restaurants nearby, close to the beach everything was great

Very nice hostel near city center. Rooms are very quiet, it is only 5 min walk from the city center. Beds are comfortable and bathroom is located inside the room (I read comments saying otherwise). Staff is really nice. Kitchen is available for you to cook. It is relatively clean, what you should expect from an hostel. WiFi is ok.
