Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomFilthy. Filthiest place I've seen. This place need a refurbishment. Rooms are small, dirty and uncomfortable. Old furniture that you could fix with some simple DIY, behind the bed dust and dirt from centuries ago. Toilets were not any better and I was about to vomit brushing my teeth the first night. The floor was a mess, other than old. I felt disgusted even walking with socks. Music playing loud until 2 at night despite no one was at the bar. Why?!?! Terrible experience. I don't know how the 6/10 average from reviews came out.
The staff is helpful and friendly. The location very convenient and close to the center. This would not make me stay there again, anyway.

NorwayI didn't experience but I observed that the bartender is a little bit aggressive and he could be a lot more kind to people that are paying his wages. I also did not appreciate that they do allow people to stay up to three or four in the morning directly outside of the hostel doors being so loud. Especially when people have traveled like myself and were so tired. They have an enclosed bar and if people are gonna stay up that late they should be told they must stay in the enclosed bar area otherwise respect people sleep.
I left everything and also being surprised by a bar a mini store and the amazing stuff with a great pool

Spain1. the swimming pool was so dirty, almost green 2. bathrooms were mostly broken and dirty 3. at nights you couldn’t sleep well because of the noise from the bar of the campsite (it was closing at 1am) and from the disco next to the camping (it was closing at 5am). first 2 night I slept maybe 1h 4. in the kitchen there werent facilities to cook. There was just a kettle, a sink and just 1 fridge for maybe 200 people that live in the camping. 5. the blankets that were given in the room were dirty and with dust. i know that it is santorini and everything is so expensive, but if I’m paying 50€/night for a tent, at least do your job well, because for me is a lot of money as I’m an student. i totally don’t recommend this camping. Even if is the only place you can afford I recommend spending a little more or going to another island.

United StatesWe changed our dates and the hostel refused to accommodate the change, even though they had tent space available. Night staff who checked us in was sarcastic and snarky. They didn't even give us a top sheet for the bed. Bunk beds were unsteady, and wobbled at the smallest movement from the person on top.
Daytime staff were helpful and nice. Luggage storage was useful.

IndonesiaThe camping was dirty and not well looked after, especially the bathrooms. The kitchen is way too small (one fridge for the whole camping) and there were no cooking facilities. Most of all, the owners and most staff members were extremely rude and unpleasant. Music was too loud and was on all the time.
The camping was well located and the swimming pool was greatly appreciated on hot summer days. Luckily, a couple of staff members were friendly.

United StatesI admit it was my fault, I should have read the reviews then I wouldn't have booked it at all! Every single bad review before me was right! I love hostels and camping style accommodation but this one ruined it for me. The flight to Fira was odd and had to arrive early, I emailed the property and they were NICE at the email that they can accommodate me but when I arrived man at the counter at 6am was super RUDE all he had to tell me was nothing is available and I can leave my luggage instead but he just said rudely twice 3pm like im sort of an idiot truly, I am an idiot I booked there in the first place I booked 3 nights as soon as I saw the bathrooms how filthy and nasty they were I had to leave, I had to hold my pee and didn't shower, I stayed the night and left the next day even though I paid for 3 days. No way in God's green earth. I am not asking for a luxurious accommodation but at least have a decent clean restrooms and semi nice workers. I was able to find an accommodation almost the same price but with pool, airconditioning, extremely clean, free breakfast, 5 mins from the beach, nicest owners, beautiful views, did I mention clean bathrooms. I hated that I wasted my time booking there ruined my first dayin santorini, hated that I have to write this review waste of my time but I need to just put it out there that, if you gonna book here do yourself a favor; dont.
food was decent

Australiawe stayed 4 nights here, 2 camping in a tent and 2 in a room. In the tents you have 1 power point, it’s hot, the bed is uncomfortable, the bathrooms are dirty and the toilets quickly run out of toilet paper since they only restock once daily. You have to hire towels at 1euro per day. The cafe is overpriced and very average but the walk into Fira is hot and uphill.
The guys at the bar make nice cocktails. It’s as cheap as you’ll find in Santorini, but it’s a horrible part of Santorini

United StatesI honestly liked everything and wished I could have stayed a few more days!
I really loved how friendly and helpful the staff were. My flight was delayed, and I didn’t arrive at the airport until 2:00am, but they answered my calls and helped me get settled quickly. I also loved the one-bed tent! It was just what I needed after a hectic day and flight. The tent was charmingly quaint, had a fan, electrical outlet, nice mirror, and was surprisingly spacious!
