Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustriaThank you Michael for the wonderful stay in Globe Runner. Since Michael is a part of the Globe Runner team it has his own charm. What is the best thing about Globe Runner. The location ? The orange juice? The german book wich was written in 1924 in Landsberg? None of them. The best thing about the Globe Runner is the people. They have a very big heart. Its a plcace where i feel like at home. Thanks

I was looking for a place to stay with a nice community and a safe environnement. Globe runner hostel was perfect in so many ways! It is one of the most comfortable and clean hostels I’ve seen, there are plenty of cool places to eat around and the neighbourhood is calm and very walkable. I stayed in a female dorm for 4 people, the room was big enough with comfortable beds that have 2 types of light and a small shelf, the curtain is a nice addition as well. There is a nice common area and a cafe with a terrace. The showers are shining clean. I definitely felt very safe and welcome there as a single traveler 🙂

The hostel was able to check me in really late, so I'm grateful for it. There is a nice lobby where you can spend time with other people playing board games or having some drinks.

SwitzerlandMichael and Ali and there two Ukrainian wives cared very well about me. Globe Runner is a hostel but the room of Michael and Ali is a hostel in the hostel. They have there own rules. If you deeply respect them Michael will borrow you his After Shave, if not, you cant even take a look to his After Shave bottle. You also need a visa, therefore you have to apply. But thats another story.

Like all the other reviews, this place is fun and comfortable. My home away from home! Great food at the cafe and a drafted IPA. Comfortable beds and all you need. Happy I found this hostel. Great value for money too. Private kitchen to cook whatever you wish with the occasional guitar evenings to beat the curfew 😉 Wonderful.

UkraineKitchen can use organization and more kitchenware. Only drawback, like most hostels, is avoiding annoying and older male guests.
Clean facilities, plenty of bathrooms, courteous guests. Beds are extremely comfortable with a privacy curtain and included wall outlets.
