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.).

MaltaDidn’t expect to pay for the bedsheets, towel etc. Price is 25% of the room price, pr set. Self cleaning of the room next day, if not done, add another 40% of the room price. Non of this info, was available before a non refundable booking. It’s feels like being cheated. No breakfast available, kitchen available. Altogether, for a couple, it’s almost cheaper to book any other hotel in Vadstena. Shared bathroom…. If you bring your own linen and clean the room, it’s a fair price. If not, it’s not worth the stay….
Central for my trip. Everything very clean. Slept well The very brief good morning with the staff, was pleasant. Nice atmosphere.

AustriaDirectly next to the main street, a little bit noisy during busy times, which is luckily not to long.
Own little terrace, beautiful sunny garden. Bus stop next to it. Small kitchen in the garden house, well enough equipped to cook. Friendly staff.

SwedenWould appreciate some upgrade change of smaller things. Though it still works more of its time to change blender and shower head. Movement in beds but nothing mayor.
Simple accommodation but fulfilled the purpose. Comfortable beds. Own sink in room.

United StatesBeds were a little soft. You also have to rent sheets which was in the booking paperwork but not clear when we did book.
It is a very basic hostel lodge which was all we wanted for our stay. It was an easy walk to the center of town and the castle.

NorwayNo breakfast, but a big kitchen in a bit dark cellar to make our food. The room was quite small. Maybe a bit expensive for a budget accomodation?
Quiet locationt, about 10 minutes walk to the Vadstena. Free parking. Lovely garden and porch with sitting groups. Rooms were clean, easy self check in. Good communication from the hostel about it. Maps and tourist brochures in the lobby. Good organized kitchen, good wi-fi. Cozy.

SwedenJust a suggestion, nothing negative: Maybe another sit-location on the porch of the side of the house?
It's just a couple of minutes walk to the water and very central location. Rooms were clean, breakfast could be eaten in the lovely garden, the porch or indoor. Nice "standard" breakfast. Personell was really polite and happy which made us happy too:-) We were only there as the trip home was a bit far in one go, so for us it was literally just a bed and breakfast.

United StatesThe breakfast was good and convenient. The rooms were clean and the doors/windows were very secure and safe. I enjoyed the location and the setting of the hostel; it was more like a house with very secure room doors and such. My expectations were very low when I saw the word “hostel,” but I was ecstatic with the cleanliness and security of my stay. I traveled alone and I felt completely safe.

United KingdomAlthough there's a lovely airy ground-floor dining room for people eating the hostel's food the guest kitchen and its adjacent dining room is a dingy basement room down a precarious staircase. Earwigs in kitchen bin. Toilets without toilet roll. No staff present most of the time. No tea-towels in kitchen. Checkout time is quite early (10.00 a.m.)
Short pleasant walk into the centre. Beautiful garden. Well organised kitchen. Comfortable beds. Late check-in was easy. Good showers and toilets. Electric sockets by the bed.
