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.).

Sloveniabasicly in house rules you have that there should not be a noice that would disturb others sleep, but the bar next to your door had really loud music. We stayed there 2 times first we stayed 2 nights and some kids had parties till midnight so we werent able to sleep in normal times. Second time we spend one night since we had morning flight and the bar had party till 2am so loudly i even heared music through my earplugs so i couldn't sleep. So if you are looking for peaceful sleep dont book here. Also the rooms are really old, the bed was broken so there was hole in the middle. Basicly had just 2 hours sleep so wasnt even worth booking for the last night.
the staff is really friendly and you got pool just next to your room

AustraliaThere tent was not described as an actual tent on the website. The fan barley did anything and was just blowing hot air around making it impossible to stay in there. The late noise was also a massive issue not being mentioned once on the website. Our first night music was played from the bar till around 2am. Waste of money
the facilities were good and location was suitable

United KingdomPool water dirty I’m sure is not treated with anything as cats were drinking from it. It smells like a sewage in the entire campsite even at the pool. Cleaning of showers and toilets is done only in the morning, by afternoon the bins are overflowing and there is no toilet paper available. There is no hot water at the showers not even warm. The bar with loud music is open every iaht till 2 am at least serving alcohol to underaged kids 15-17 years old. The tent is a metal structure that overheats day time and is impossible to stay in, night time full of bugs and mosquitos as there is no netting. I was bitten every night by bed bugs and when requested to change location I was presented with a room that not even a dog could sleep in for extra 300 euros after I already paid 315 euros through booking.com and they didn’t even helped with anything saying that the manager of the campsite will not refund anything and the conditions are what I paid for. From the pictures it doesn’t how the reality of the place. Kids are sleeping on the ground every night without any health and safety protection. The kitchen is dirty, filthy and not even staff eat there (!!! I wonder why?!?) One fried egg on a piece of toast it is 8 euros and the breakfast option at 9 euro as advertised is actually whatever the campsite decides the night before from 10 euros up. At the kitchen they sell cigarettes at double the price on the package if you want to buy. Tables are full of ants and chipped at corners, the entire furniture is older than my dead grandma. Pool chairs are broken and uncomfortable. At checkin they ask for 50 euro deposit and if you don’t have cash they retain your passport for the while duration which I am sure is illegal but you are not given any other option or you can go without being refunded the paid amount. Police came by on my first day in as a lady reported use of drugs on site. Reception people are awful specially the mama her of the campsite.
Only the bar staff was nice, coffee very good and bar prices decent.

SwitzerlandOne of the staff members was very rude. It's written on the rule board that after checking out from the room at 11 am, we can stay until 2:00 pm at the property and leave our luggage / use the pool. When we went to check out at 11 am, the staff member said that we have to check out with our luggage at 11 am and leave the property immediately, else we have to pay 5 euros. This receptionist was an older guy... Rude behavior for petty money laundry.
Poolside was good and food was cheap.

SwedenJust one suggestion as July Aug are heated months and full of mosquitoes too so would be better if given mosquitoes net at night and fan quality could be better. Otherwise I had fantastic experience.
We had perfect stay at the Santorini Camping Hostel! From the perfect poolside vibes to delicious meals made with care by the superb restaurant staff, every moment was filled with warmth and joy. Huge thanks to the friendly and supportive team for making our trip extra special. Compared to Santorini beaches I enjoyed in hostel pool more hahaha

ItalyIf you’re looking into booking this, look the other way and book something different for your own sake. Absolutely vile. We paid more to stay in one of the bungalows which smell like dirt and melting plastic. The worst is how much it heats up both during day and night making it almost impossible to stay inside. There are A LOT of people EVERYWHERE sleeping on the floor, just randomly without even having tents. It seriously looks worrying. The bathrooms are a horror show, with hairs everywhere, smells, used tampons, spiders, overall really not cleaned at all. Bed sheets struggle to stay on the bed being the wrong size for it so you end up sleeping directly on the mattress. Stains on bedsheets. Let’s add on to that the fact that they own peacocks, kept right next to the bathrooms, in a tiny enclosure witch made me really sad to see animals treated this way. As to the staff, cold and dismissive. We tried to take a couple pictures of the pool at night and were very rudely whistled at by a man (who my best guess is a security guard), who told us to not sit because it was “late”. There were at least 4 people sitting there, but apparently we weren’t welcome. Overall, please save yourself from this and look for something different.
Absolutely nothing

IndiaThe rooms were beyond cramped. The 8 bed dorm really only fits 6 beds. It was impossible to move around eachother with 8 beds. The main light for the room would not turn on and individual beds did not have lamps. The AC only kind of worked. Garbages in bathrooms were not emptied daily. Wifi did not work in rooms. Plastic on mattresses was really noisy and made it so the sheets kept sliding off. No kitchen to store or make your own food.
The location is great. Walking distance to many restaurants and Fira bus station. Very easy to get anywhere from there. The pool is nice and well maintained. Bartender was lovely.

CanadaBudget-friendly, though the food is a bit pricey. Wi-Fi doesn't work inside the hostel, but the speeds are excellent outside, making it suitable for remote work. Be sure to bring insect repellent, as mosquitoes can be a significant issue here.
