How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGood location, very convenient for travelers. Rooms are independent cabins so it gives more privacy. There is a kitchen for common use with appliances and products to use and share. It also has a patio with some outdoor furniture to share. The receptionist , la señora Luz , is the loveliest person on earth.
Nothing, all went great!

Verified reviewBig room, warm shower, nice site with seating area and kitchen. Nice and private, not too noisy. The cat was our favourite, the staff were very friendly. Not too far from town 5-10 minute walk.
Mentioned on booking.com that it did laundry but when we asked they said they didn’t.

Verified reviewHad a Really really nice stay here, perfect base for exploring the Atacama. Good private secure parking. So nice to be able to use all the kitchen facilities! Comfy clean room with great showers :)
Wifi not great but we just bought a SIM card in town. Also terrible conversion rate from the given rate of USD ($188 for 5 nights) to CLP (222,000)- luckily we had USD in cash so could pay the cheaper!

Verified reviewGreat location, peaceful courtyard, well equipped and light-filled kitchen. Staff were helpful with changing plans and extending stay, and arranging laundry.
Our twin room was a strange configuration, we couldn’t close the door without pulling out one of the beds from the wall. Could also be improved with lamps next to the beds, not just the overhead light.

Verified reviewThe hostel was nice and clean with space to sit outside. The staff was very friendly. There is a kitchen where you can cook if you want. It is outside of the town centre and it is peaceful. We had a good night sleep. You can walk from the hostel to the centre. It is only 5 minutes walk.
There was only one toilet for all guests.

Verified reviewVery cold at night and we have a nice and warm bed, comfortable and with extra blankets.
Staff was very rude to me when I asked her about open the gate to another couple that was travelling by motorbike and had a flat tire, so they would arrive 22:20 for check in (she opens until 22h). I stayed awake to help them, but in the end she did, maybe she just didn’t have a great day and are tired of tourists in San Pedro.

Verified reviewThe location was great, just near the central "tourist" street. On tours, I was one of the last to be picked up and the first to be dropped off. The room was really basic but had a decent shower and bed, which was fine for me. Tip for non-Chileans: If you pay in Dollars in cash, you don't have to pay an additional VAT tax of 19%.
The internet was unstable, dropping at times. Oh, and the mosquitos... The reception/manager lady needs some training in communication skills, however, her Dad was nice.

Verified reviewClose to city center. Nice bed and daily room service. Well equipped kitchen. Parking spot for 2 cars in total.
No air-conditioning (but got a fan from the reception). Only cash payment and had to pay 20%+ more than indicated on Booking, in addition to very high ATM fees in Atacama.
