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.).

SwedenOur bathroom had a small vent/window by the ceiling directly on the wall to the adjacent shared bathroom, so you could hear people being in the other bathroom (and they could hear us).
Large and clean room, comfortable beds, easy to park the car on the street outside, staff speaking fluent English, excellent breakfast option.

AustraliaSuggested dinner location with pilgrim menu didn't seem very prepared for pilgrims even though had flyers on their counter. Took a long time to get food (over 1hr) but very tasty and cheaply priced to balance out! Just be prepared for possible wait!
Good location, easy check in. I was in a mixed room for 4 in bunk beds. Very clean, sheets, pillow and blankets provided, plus enough power outlets for everyone to charge things. Lockers if you want to store things in there (byo padlock). The room had its own bathroom opposite which was also clean with a good shower. Apparently there's a laundry sink/area where you can handwash your clothes too. Breakfast very good...just make sure you're up and down there before 7:30/8 as you might miss out on the eggs and bacon! Even if you do, there's plenty of options options to fill you up. Town is worth a look at too if you get in early enough in day and aren't too tired.

United KingdomI was in a side room that was out from the main reception and there were non walkers in the room next to us (obviously no issue with that) but they came in and out quite a lot over night (2-4am) and would leave the communal door open which wasn’t great.
For the price you can’t really go wrong. Bunk bed on the Camino is what it is. I’ve had better bunk beds in hostels but the reception being open 24 hours is great and the breakfast included was really good. For me the water was hot, but some of the people showering after had cold water so I guess get in there early.
