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.).

AustraliaThe dining room / lounge is very small, but there are bars and cafes at street level.
Each bedspace has a powerplug, usb charger and a blackoiut curtain. There is a coffee vending machine in the kitchen. The hotel is in the heart of the city, surrounded by bars abd cafes.

AustraliaThe floor in the bathroom was constantly wet, however the bathroom was clean. Not that much can be done to keep it dry, lots of people are using the showers.
The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean.

AustraliaMaybe needs a little more shelf space in the kitchen for food storage.
Central Sydney location. The room was clean and comfortable and very quiet thanks to double glazing. No traffic noise. The whole hostel was very clean. The doors to the dorm rooms were quiet soft close doors so they didn't wake you up. Very nice. Nice big lockers. The clientele were quiet, polite and respectful. Security is very good with plenty of cameras to keep everyone safe.

AustraliaThe barthrooms were always wet, and to get to the toilets you have to walk through the wet floors. There was a person in the same room who had a alarm that rang probably like 10 times every 5 mins or so, super disrespectful as the person was there and was definitely letting it run knowing there was more pp in the room.
The rooms are so quiet and clean, provides a lot of privacy with the curtains. Really central and grate transparent, active area until late so you find all type of food around, the guy (no sure if owner or admin) was lovely and friendly

Francei stayed more than a month in this hostel. The manager is really helpful, and is keen to ensure that everything goes well for everyone. Pods are spacious, with room to leave things on the side. A large locker that can be locked with its own padlock. The kitchen is large and functional, there is space to sit, a comfortable common living area. I will definitely return to this hostel if i come back to Sydney. Thank you for your welcome.

NetherlandsWhen I was there I felt like everyone was baking steaks, so I found out the ventilation was not very good haha. The hostel was hot and my room smelled like steak (I was next to the kitchen).
Clean hostel at a good location. I really liked the little pods and spacious storage for my bag.

ItalySometimes other guests might not be that respectful.. not a flaw imputable to the structure of course. Just a friendly reminder to fellow travellers to leave common spaces clean :)
Loved the quiet ambience and the overall cleanliness of the environment. The curtains provided a lot of privacy, not always guaranteed in hostels.

BulgariaSome of the guests in my room had to leave early and made more noise than expected.
It's the first time I'm staying in a backpackers place and in one with pods and the place exceeded my expectations. It was clean, comfortable, the staff was super friendly and helpful. The other guests respected everyone's privacy and sleeping hours. The location is superb. I definitely recommend it.
