Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United KingdomI only stayed here for 1 night when there was no space at Viajero. It is very basic. There was no door on my dorm room, so you could walk into the room straight off the street. It was very loud at night. There was no travel vibe. No privacy curtain on the long side of the beds only at the bottom. The mattress was very uncomfortable it was so thin you sank into it and could feel the slats below.
Staff on desk 24/7. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, I cannot fault them. Very good location.

United KingdomIt wasn’t incredibly clean, but no major problems. Occasionally could be noisy on the street but fine with earplugs.
We enjoyed our time here, namely because it’s in a great location and has a nice atmosphere with bar downstairs (to note not a late night bar!). The room was good with enough space for us and private bathroom which mostly had hot water. We had a fan in the room and were able to leave our luggage on two occasions.

The location is perfect in the middle of the restaurants. The room was fine. Two good beds. Shared bathroom was clean and one of the best showers with hot water and pressure. Good laundry service.

CanadaUpon arrival, the fridge was disgusting and the kitchen overrun by staff who left it dirty despite having a large staff kitchen. There was no soap in the shared washroom upstairs, but they still had covid signs encouraging hand washing. The rooms were the smallest, hottest and by far the most uncomfortable that we've seen of the 4 hostels we've stayed at in Medellin. The bed sagged in the middle and the springs could be felt in the mattress. There was very little shared space to sit and wherever there was space, the 4-5 staff members were always taking up all the tables. The staff slept sloppily on the bench in the eating area and were knocking on our door at 10pm waking us up for no reason and then complaining when we made breakfast before the gym at 6am. I highly recommend you find somewhere else to stay during your time in Medellin. There are many beautiful accommodations with friendly, welcoming staff in this same area where you won't be waiting for the staff to prepare their food before you have the space to prepare your own.

United KingdomOne of the most uncomfortable hostels I’ve stayed at, the beds are really hot as they have a plastic protector and are overall uncomfortable. The showers were a hit or miss with the hot water. To make my stay even less bearable the Wi-Fi didn’t reach my room whatsoever. Cleanliness was spotty, I found a roach in my locker. The property could use with some improvements, even down to small fixes like shower doors not closing properly.
Staff were nice and the only highlight of this stay

SwedenOne of the dirtiest hostels I’ve stayed in. Only one toilet had a door that could be closed. The only shower without big holes in the door had lost the knob to warm water. Hair and bugs in the bed and on the floor. Lets not talk about the kitchen.

FranceNot bad hostel but very noisy, you can hear the party hostel nearby every night in the dorm until midnight or more. There were a dog in the hostel, from the staff i think, and he was barking on night almost every night they just left him barking, impossible to sleep without earplugs. The staffs were pretty loud too. The location is pretty good but it's too noisy this is the problem

Close to the metro station and lots of Spanish schools around. The room was comfortable and clean. Good value for money in poblado. We would stay here again.
