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.).

SwedenNot very cosy to hang out. Staff on my day of arrival seemed really annoyed at getting a customer for check in, but other members of staff were polite during my stay. Air conditioning at night is extremely cold, prepare to sleep fully dressed! Would also be good if the reception/café opened a little earlier, I was in KL for activities every day and by 8:00 I had already had to leave.
Great location and price. Generous closing time of 02:00 by the reception/café. There is soap in the shower, a nice bonus. A socket by the bed is also convenient.

United KingdomThe AC was set a little cold for the dorm
I booked this hostel because of its proximity to KL Sentral and therefore easy connections to the rest of the city and the airport for an early flight. Initially I thought the hostel looked quite stark in terms of the dorm rooms but after my initial thoughts I really liked this hostel. Plenty of hot water to shower and the cafe is a really good community area with the hosts/owner extremely helpful about how to get to various places etc. in fact one night we went on an impromptu tour of the night market together. The cafe has hot and cold water for drinks etc and a fridge for the use of the residents. The Owner is constantly trying to improve his hostel and asking for opinions of guests on what they think. I’m intending to back in KL in May and will definitely stop here and I suspect it would have improved more by then. Definitely value for money and you can’t get a better location for links to The Petronas Towers, Batu caves and the airport links.

NetherlandsWalls are paperthin. We had a two-person room and on our first nights we were clearly lucky with quiet guests around us. Two weeks later when we stayed again we had people tiktokking on full volume, having phone conversations on speaker and whatnot in rooms next to ours. This is partly to blame on whack behavior - some people really live in their own little bubble. On the other hand you should be able to expect walls to have some soundproof capacity. The walls might just as wel not be there. The place could really benefit from improved soundproofing. It would make the place which is already great a no-brainer to stay at.
Good location close to KL Sentral, great spots to eat across brickfields which - if you like your indian dishes - is great. Laundry nearby and good facilities. Check-in and out was straightforward.
