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 reviewSirena Insolente was great overall, I enjoyed my stay. The kitchen was fab, well equipped, the breakfast was decent for CP3000 and the proximity to the beach was great.
I do however think I may have had bed bugs… one to watch. The main downside of the hostel was 1, the cleanliness. the cleaning lady barely cleaned the bathroom everyday and never touched the main rooms. you could just tell it all needed a good scrub. 2, the surf school at the hostel… AVOID. The guy in charge is seriously rude and very odd with women. he was aggressive on several occasions when i was there with me and it seemed to be a common fact that he was very out of order with guests. his treatment of women in particular was horrific. i do overall recommend staying here and i would come back but save yourself the drug school experience and go to one of the places at the beach - firstly cheaper and secondly nicer people and you don’t have to carry the board all the way there. the surf school really let down the rest of the hostel.

Verified reviewWalking distance to the surf, nice communal kitchen.
Room was hot, no fan, no fly screens so mosquitos all night if you leave the windows open. Noisy, especially on weekends . Staff aren't surfers so not very helpful for experienced surfers. Catered more for total beginners who want lessons. Some English spoken. No shops in walking distance, lots of taxis required but they are easy to get.

Verified reviewIt is perfect located near the beach and good restaurants. Every day it has a nice fireplace, where everyone gathers for making dinner, in the well equipped kitchen. It has an amazing vibe, and a lot to do nearby and really friendly staff. Perfect to relax and go to the beach for surfing in punta de lobos

Verified reviewThe location is excellent, only a 15 minute walk from Punta de Lobos and great surf. Even in the off season there were enough restaurants around that I got by fine. I was there in the shoulder season so the waves weren't massive but amazing, super consistent, and uncrowded. The other surfers in the water were among the friendliest I've ever seen, none of the drama that often accompanies world class waves. The Hostel is awesome, the entire staff were super friendly, outgoing, and helpful. The room was nice, the bed was soft and warm, the shower worked great, and it was nice that it was set up with a place to store my boards, hang up the wetsuit, and rinse off. In the evening everyone would hang around the bonfire and talk, play ping pong, and chill. I was able to rent a great wetsuit from them at a reasonable price which was awesome because the water is really cold. I'm already thinking about when I can go back.

Verified reviewIt’s beautifully build, a lot of space and the kitchen was super organised and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful, they even have a co-working space.
It’s located a bit out of Pichilemu and if you don’t have a car, you’ve gotta walk a lot sometimes.

Verified reviewI absolutely loved this surf hostel, it was beautifully build with warm wooden facilities and artsy details, instantly felt like home being there. This was also thanks to the amazing staff who were so understanding and easy to communicate with already before my stay, I arrived very late but still felt safe as the communication with reception was easy. Thanks so much for being exceptionally friendly, lovely and welcoming! The breakfast was very good with fruits and the hostel offers surf lessons as well as equipment for rent. It's located only a short walk away from Punta de Lobos Beach, really the perfect place for a relaxing getaway!
Nothing really, loved the place and especially the people!

Verified reviewWe had an awesome stay! Location was perfect, quick walk to the surf. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, was an extremely good vibe there. Was very vibey when we visited, with folks from all over the globe staying there (Aus, Ireland, France, Canada, US, Brazil, Argentina, etc). They had a fire going each night to hang out and chat, which was awesome. Easy to rent surfboards there (for all abilities, not just beginners), and a mini-ramp out back.
