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.).

ItalyMaybe just because of the off-season, but there was no soap in the bathrooms and the kitchen sponge to clean dishes needed to be replaced. The room was clean but smelled like dirty socks and b.o. At night, there are no curtains on the windows so you get awoken by the motion detection light.
Overall this place was a good option for a quick trip in Como. The location is excellent and they have the basic services needed in the kitchen. The dorm room was well-lit and clean. The guy at the reception was super friendly and kind, so thank you for that. The people in the dorm were also quite friendly.

IrelandThe bathroom heater was a bit too hot, and the floor got wet after showers. I was expecting another breakfast, but I guess for that price it was fine.
Staff is very friendly and room was very clean. Thats enought for a good hostel IMO. Hostel is near the lake, so you can walked by the lake and go to the center.

United KingdomI’d give 9 if a few things that are constantly mentioned here in reviews were fixed. Seems that the management doesn’t look at the comments or ignores it. No soap in the toilet, such an easy thing to sort out. Toilets were rather freezing (I know it was December when I visited but come on… however I don’t know where they’d put the radiator in there since the cubicles were so tiny that it was almost impossible to move). Ah sorry there’s something even easier to fix - there’s no single hook/hanger in any toilet cubicle 💆🏻♀️ One of the room’s 5 walls is basically floor to ceiling windows with only mesh curtains. There’s a movement sensor light outside of this room and it’s basically bright all night in a room. Again - such an easy fix - normal curtains. The kitchen needs more love - pots with no handles, 4 (for real 4) mugs, a few plates. If you want to make a tea you have to boil the water in a sauce pan because there’s no kettle. There was no salt, no sugar, no oil (some other guest bought salt). On the fridge info to label the food followed by “you can find labels at the reception - lol - great system, literally nothing labelled). And here comes my biggest pet peeves (seen not only in this hostel) - the beds aren’t done, ok whatever, but you don’t get the cover for the duvet, it’s just another sheet. Id say about 70% of the guest sleep under the same duvet (these aren’t washed obvs). People either don’t care to use the sheets provided to “separate” themselves from the duvet or put them as a privacy curtain. Ah one more thing, leaving the key every time you go (even the locker key… - I ended up taking all my documents and money with me, not too sure what’s more ridiculous). Sorry for this rant but I’d hope someone will read that and maybe impose some changes? This said I’d stay in the hostel again, the bed was comfy and the shower was hot, it was clean. And a good price for Come.
Really comfy sturdy bed, big room, nice staff, hot water in the shower. 16 beds in one room, but it really didn’t feel crowded at all, there was a separation in the middle so felt like 2 rooms of 8. It was full yet no one was queuing for the toilets, showers. Very nice outside space, must be lovely in summer.

IndonesiaYou can tell is a new hostel, a lot of improvements have to be done. Starting off with the kitchen, small, not well equipped and not comfortable at all for cooking. The curtains in the room are transparent that means the room gets very bright super early in the morning. No common room where to gather and meet other than the garden and the parking fee is way too high. Also dropping and picking the keys every time you leave the hostel and come back is a bit annoying. Entering the room with a code number or with a card would be better.
Great location, nice garden and comfortable beds. Jaison the night receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The time for breakfast till 11 is cool. The price was very competitive, I hope not just because it is recently opened.

Latviathe mattresses have seen better days, but to be fair I had no problems sleeping on mine, the annoying thing was the bathroom and entry doors being very loud: you end up waking up every time someone returns from outside or goes to the bathroom during the night. also my locker had a weird smell. The room itself looked recently renovated tho. also the shower didn't make me want to die which is rare for a hostel! although in my room some of the bathrooms/showerrooms didn't have a lock which was weird
the staff were very nice, the hostel easy to find and the rooms spacious

good traveller atmosphere, but it wasn’t the most youthful hostel if you planned to meet a ton of new people (the people between 20-28 were very sociable though!), some families too with kids, Hot Breakfast Croissant w Nutella/Jam and Coffee hits the spot
