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 reviewLa Casa Roja was a great place to stay specially if you are a traveler in a budget, the hostel is a walkable area to the city center of Santiago which is nearby many landmarks, there is a small supermarket couple blocks aways where you can get your groceries. The staff was very kind and the don't hesitate to find solutions for any you ask for. The hostel is very clean and you can see staff constantly cleaning the common areas.
The hostel is a good value for money but still there are things can be improved. This hostel is a very old house, and it seems some areas still under maintenance. Despite the staff is constantly cleaning... some areas like the kitchen are usually messy, this because of some guest that don't wash the dishes, also, during my time there some stole my juice and cheese from the fridge, I cannot blame the hostel but I guess is a risk you take when you use a common area. The Hostel do not provide any type of breakfast, even coffee or purified water, but they have some night activities during the week were they offer pesto pasta and a cocktail. The lockers inside the rooms are not enough for all the beds, and the hostel don't provide towels for free, so make sure to bring yours if you don't want to pay for it.

Verified reviewThe reception staff were helpful in giving tips on what to do in the area. The shower was hot and powerful and the bed was comfortable. It is good enough for a night when just arriving.
The heating was an old gas cylinder that is banned in many countries as it is unsafe. The room had no windows so there was no ventilation for the gas. We didn't use it so it was very cold. We were also woken up by grounds staff very early in the morning having a loud conversation at our door.

Verified reviewI had a private room and it was MAAAASIVE! Bed was quite comfy and had a big window but it's a bit hight so couldn't really look out of it 😉 it's a great building, I wonder what was there originally! Bathrooms were alright but few times there was no toilet paper in the ladies so bring your own just in case. The hostel has a great vibe, it does pool parties or free dinners on occasion. The kitchen is big and a pool side and bar comfy. It's about 15 mins walk to town centre but just two streets away is a small square where there are few cafes and restaurants. Staff at the reception has limited English (if any) but they're okay.
Nothing
