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.).

EstoniaAbsolutely nothing.
This place is absolutely a gem, if you are staying in Tainan, and Jerry is a great host. Clean, quiet, well designed, friendly and comfortable: what else can you wish from a hostel? I would definitely come again!

Belgium- Towels are not provided for free - Check-in was not 100% smooth: I was asked to rebook the room on another website if I was to come after check-in hours, payment was by cash, and I had to ring the doorbell twice before the staff came (even though I arrived at the right time). Those are tiny little details, but always great to know before you book.
- What a surprising hostel, really interesting ! - You have your own “cubicle”, it closes with a key for more privacy - Shower was tiny but has everything you need - Really clean - Well situated

AustriaJuest a very minor thing: when I arrived, the door was locked and there was no indication anywhere what to do, where to ring or knock. Fortunately, a staff person appeared a few minutes later.
Beautifully, individually and architectonically renovated old house in one of Tainan's old neighbourhoods with narrow streets and lot's of small things to discover. I was especially amazed how spacious and comfortable the capsule was and how silent it was at night. (OK, I might have had to luck to have very considerate co-travellers on the day I was there.) I have never stayed in a place that offered me so much comfort in very little space for so little money (might have had to do with the exchange rate, too.)!

United StatesI have no complaints
One of the best, if not the best, hostel I have been to in Taiwan. The layout and decor of the facilities were exceptional, the beds were very comfortable, and the owner was very friendly. The amenities were exactly as described, and the location was perfect -- walkable from the train station, but more into the heart of the city than other facilities.

TaiwanThe doors and roof have a lot of gaps to the outside, meaning mosquitoes are unavoidable, although they did provide a zapper. After booking, I received a message asking to do a bank transfer within 24 hours to confirm the room, this was fine but it would have been nice to know in advance, luckily I checked my emails in time.
Stunning room in a very quirky property. Our room was directly next to the (shared) bathroom which was very convenient. The building is an aesthetic mismatch of corridors, stairways and balconies decorated with various artwork and plants, and set in a lovely quiet backstreet, right in the middle of the West Central District. Host was very helpful and we were able to leave our bags during the day. I'd happily stay again.

AustraliaThe top bunk beds are a cubicle style where you are walled-in with the door at your feet, some may find this a bit claustrophobic.
