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 reviewI like the friendly environment and the location is wonderful.
Maybe they can put a door in the shared room I was so we can't hear the noise outside.

Verified reviewI liked: Excellent WiFi, nice host, there’s a dance studio just down the corner. I didn’t like : filthy bathroom, stained linen, garbage mosquitoes, rarely hot water in private room. Small place so people’s nasty habits and annoying noises could be heard all the long. The administration should be more vigilant and identify from the very beginning guests disrespecting behavior towards the others. Sometimes you could see a bunch of scketchy guys lurking in the block’s corners.

It could have been a bit cleaner.

Verified reviewHostel is located in a lovely old house with old furniture, some crazy items like old irons, cassettes or sewing machine. All this gives an interesting vibe. Jonatan is very kind. Shared room is acceptable- no door, only a curtain. If there are people in the living room in the evening, it is loud.
Shower is not nice. But for a low price one can accept some frugality. I was disapointed that I couldn't use the kitchen (only more expensive reservations are allowed)

Verified reviewVery affordable hostel, probably the cheapest in my travels.
Area not great after dark, would recommend taking a taxi to the hostel. No real facilities in the toilet (like sink soap).

Verified reviewChill, small spot, very helpful staff, he let me leave some of my stuff at the hostel during my three day hike. There’s a washing machine too (15,000 to use) but plan a couple days to dry your clothes if you wanna use it. The hostel is in a quiet neighbourhood next to a grocery store and a small park with workout equipment.
Could never get more than a minute or two of hot water out of the shower, and having to pay to use the kitchen is rather odd

Verified reviewThe location is great, the price very fair and the beds were quite comfortable. It's quite clean too
There are two things we didn't like at all. 1. We didn't get a key for our room, after asking again we got a key but it's not possible to lock the door. There are reviews that other travelers got stuff stolen here, so it would be nice to lock the room you booked. A no go in my opinion 2. You have to pay 10,000 pesos a day (or 15,000 for two days) to use the kitchen. After 6 months traveling around all South America it has been my first time to pay for the kitchen. For 10,000 pesos you get a huge entire menu del día already. I would have been fine with that if the kitchen equipment was good but it wasn't. The pans are super old , there are 0 spices or oil and the cabinets are ridiculously dirty & sticky.

Verified reviewThe price was good, but theft is a problem.
There are No lockers to lock your things up. I had money stolen from me at this hostel. The owner did not want to show me the video , to see who entered the room while I was gone. It's unsafe.
