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.).

United Arab EmiratesLack of cooking or kitchen type of facilities in the building, not even tea making, but there are cafes and some eateries around the area, which is offset by the price you pay for the accommodation and is worth it.
Location, location and location, plus a superb value for money. :)

I loved the building and antique lift. The location is great, 2mins from casa Batillo and all the shopping. The room itself was comfortable, the bathroom small but water pressure was great. The room is cleaned and toiletries replenished every day. Chelo and Maria were lovely, friendly and warn. As the room was ready Maria let me have it early. Chelo was so helpful with the instructions and any information i needed.

GermanyGoing in and out of the place requires leaving the keys at the reception. This means that coming back late at night requires ringing the bell to be buzzed in and then be given the room key to enter the room. This process is fast and the staff does not seem to mind at all, however I felt a lot more self-conscious of the time I was coming back and the noise I was making when walking if coming back late at night - also didn't love having to ring a bell late at night when being on my own instead of being able to enter the building directly. Overall I was there for work so it was not a big issue, but I would much rather have the flexibility to take the key with me and not have to think about any of this.
The location is really great, and the room was spacious with comfortable beds. The building is a sight in inself and the staff was very nice and friendly.

CanadaIt has some necessary steps at the entrance, so it's not the most accessible spot. Best suited to people with fewer bags, like most hostels. Nothing else to complain about though!
I narrowed my choices down to this location based on proximity to the metro and train stations, which is top notch. Like most hostels, it's quite simple, but this one has some extra charm. The wooden elevator is the first instance of this, but the quiet accommodations and great view out onto the street boost it. The room was night and bright, with a small but clean and modern bathroom.

United StatesHaving a coffee machine for a morning brew would make this place a perfect one. Having a coffee machine in the common area that any of the residents could use would make this place even better and more appealing.
Location and the hosts were fantastic. We often came in late at night but the hosts were always welcoming. Awesome location near Placa Catalunya, easy commute from airport and Barcelona saints train station. Metro round the block. Beautiful views outside of your window. Overall a gem of a place.

GreeceHowever, the stay was quite pricey, which didn't reflect the value for money. The room doors didn't close well, so I could hear everything happening in the hallway or in neighboring rooms, including conversations and the noise of people carrying suitcases. One night, the noise was so disruptive that I couldn't sleep at all. While the room was clean, the towels were very worn and appeared off-white. Additionally, the room was quite small. Overall, these issues were manageable since I was staying alone for just three nights. But if I had been traveling with my partner, the lack of noise insulation and small room size would have been more problematic. These shortcomings would have been more acceptable if the prices were not as high.
The hostel's location on the Passeig de Gràcia is unbeatable, situated in the heart of Barcelona's shopping district. This made it incredibly convenient to walk to many attractions, including Casa Batlló and La Pedrera, both just a five-minute stroll away. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, and even though they did not speak English, it provided a great opportunity to practice my Spanish. The hostel is housed in a beautiful historic building, adding a charming touch and allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the history of Barcelona.

United KingdomAbsolutely amazing staff and hotel, the location couldn't have been better: a metro stop right outside, the hotel a 10 minute walk from everything and great connects to the rest of the city. There's a 24 hour front desk and everything is very safe, clean and comfortable. Even the entrance to the hotel is gorgeous with a beautiful classic staircase and lift! It is a generally quiet building with thinner walls so you may have to be quite conscious of noise levels however considering everything that was not an issue! 10/10 would recommend to anyone visiting barcelona for the full package!

AlbaniaJust one minor detail. I wish there had been an iron for the clothes in the room.
I stayed at Hostal Olivia for 3 nights and had a very nice experience. It is very centrally located, just 3 minutes away from Casa Batllo and the metro or bus station to get anywhere you want. The two ladies that attended us were very gentle and helpful!
