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 StatesUpon arrival, we received a different room than what we booked through Booking.com. The staff was unhelpful and did not offer any discounts or assistance. We had booked a room with a private washroom and asked the receptionist about the noise level. He assured us it was quiet, but the room was right next to a busy street, making it impossible to sleep. The window was just a small slit that opening it put us within inches at shoulder level with pedestrians. The pictures on booking.com showed an actually window. We were also surprised to find extra charges for basic amenities like towels and hot water for the jacuzzi. This was not communicated to us prior to our stay.I recommend future guests inspect their rooms before paying. There are better accommodations in Salento for less money
The only good thing I can say about this place is that it was close to the main park.

United StatesTo start my agony, i arranged a shuttle from them to come pick me up at the airport a week ahead of my arrival. Owner confirmed and sent my arrival info. Owner said vehicle info will be sent.Two days before my arrival, I sent a message asking to confirm again and the detail of the vehicle. No response . Kept messaging and emailing but was totally ignored.anxiety was building up as this was my first time to this place. Anyway, I managed to get my own transport to the hostel.Thanks to uber. Then the agony continues.i was given a room that didn't have a window. I know this was a hostel but my room had this moist musty bathroom smell in the whole room. It was like sleeping in public bathroom or locker room.i just couldn't get comfortable and rest.Had to check out on the second day of a suppose to be 4 day stay. i was getting sinus congestion every morning from the smell. Also, maybe they could invest a little bit on towels and pillows. Towels and pillows were just too old and worn out.
Just the location.

United KingdomNot worth £58! The room was small. Our previous hostel was only £24 a night and still in the centre. Not closed off from the outside, eg, open space above the door which was only partially mosquito netted, same in the bathroom an open space at the top of the wall with no net. The door also had a large gap at the bottom, on our first night the smell of gasoline coming in from the street was almost unbearable. No towels in room had to ask. We handed laundry in to be done but the service wasn’t available, as we were out all day we didn’t know and no one informed us on our return so we didn’t have time to search for alternatives. Stain which looked like blood on partners pillow case, informed reception who said they would bring another, 1.5 hours later we had to chase them for the case.
Location was great, a 5 minute walk to the main square of Salento. Lovely large communal garden with plenty of seating options. Friendly host Jefferson who checked us in and explained everything in good English.

United KingdomI stayed in the Deluxe Room. The room was very small and bathroom microscopic, the water in the shower wasn’t cold, that’s all I can say about water. There was no proper doors either to the bathroom or to the room, the room was locked with the padlock, this gave no noise reduction whatsoever from the hallway. The mattress was horrible, it was a sponge which was deforming under any pressure given, impossible to sleep without a broken back in the morning. The last and the most important thing is, my Deluxe Room, had no window! There were no towels, when I asked they provided some small thin sand paper quality towels. Walls and ceilings are made from paper and you feel like you literally sleep outside with other people. I wouldn’t stay again in this place. Neither cheap or comfortable. Very disappointing.

CanadaMoldy smell in room and bathroom with mushrooms growing on the wooden sink in the bathroom. Felt unhealthy. Wifi didn’t work. Just overall uncomfortable feeling - starting with a weird vibe with a staff member at check-in and again strange check-out where the staff had to evaluate our room like a homework assignment.
Great location. Close to everything.

IsraelWe reserved the Deluxe room for a higher price, when we arrived the man in the reception first took our money (the payment for the Deluxe room) and after we saw the room and realized it's a regular room we requested to move to the room we reserved. The guy in the reception said it's occupied. So we demended to get the difference back and the guy refused and referred us to a mobile number of the manager that isn't answering until now. We are very dissatisfied and disappointed.

ArubaWe booked 2 nights but only stayed one. If you are looking for a quiet place to relax this is NOT the place. There was construction noise all over from neighbours. The hotel had a puppy that started crying around 4am disturbing our sleep until they let him out of the room, later in the day he started crying again. We contacted the hotel manager to explain our concerns and to ask if we could cancel night number 2 wich she denied and we had to pay the other night. She insisted that we had changed our plans and that’s why we wanted to leave the place (which was not true).
The property is in Salento, good location due it’s a very small town. So any hotel would be in a good location

SpainBE WARNED: you have to pay 80.000$ per person EXTRA to use the jacuzzi (for ONLY 2 hours). This is around $20USD and almost as much as we paid for the room. We literally booked this hostel BECAUSE of the jacuzzi... I recommend you book a hostel with pool/jacuzzi access included in the price, as it should 🙏🏼
the room we had was OK
