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...).

BelgiumThere are only limited options for snacks and drinks, so make sure you are prepared by buying some stuff at the Minca town itself (it's about 5 minutes by moto taxi) or during reception hours (although they might be out of groceries).
Great value for money family hotel, with a very friendly team and modern clean rooms. It's amazing to wake up and see the nature out of your bed. Rooms were better as expected. Breakfast is basic, but good.

Nice place with a great terrasse. A balcony with the room. A very good breakfast. The restaurant next house propose delicious food for a good price. The pool azul is very close by foot. And it is one hour nice walk to the sunset Wien point. To return to Santa Marta the hotel can call the bus and they pick up you just for some pesos more. I recommend this place « in the forest » and on the road

United KingdomWe loved our stay here - so much that we extended our stay by 2 nights. The sheets/bedding were exceptionally soft and comfortable! The rooftop/terrace is a great place for both breakfast and to relax during the day/evening. Very friendly owners too. The view across the hills was exceptional, and a quick moto taxi up from the main area of Minca, or a c20 minute walk up the hill. Some great options for food/coffee nearby too.

It's a wonderful place to stay if you want peace and quiet and amazing views. The rooms had a balcony with stunning views, so did the shared terrace. The staff is very accommodating and helpful, they have a water refill station which is amazing as it reduces the amount of plastic and is very handy. The room is spacious, basic but has everything one needs. There's only cold water, but it's everywhere in this part of Colombia, just be prepared. We loved the location as it's away from the noise and pollution of Minca, but close enough to a couple of good restaurants (you must try the Japanese place 2 minutes away, the food was extra delicious and the owners are so lovely). The hidden waterfall is walkable distance too and it was our favourite one of them all - almost no people, clean and deep enough to swim. Another MUST DO is a visit to Plan B, it's a farm nearby where they do tours. It was the best experience we had so far.

ThailandSuch a comfy room and super clean. Great private balcony but also a very nice common area. Really tasty breakfast. This place has a drinking water refill which I appreciate so much, both for saving money and the environment while we are travelling- thank you! Quiet and relaxing vibe overall so you can see birds flying around, so cool. Beautiful views. I was sad to leave!

GermanyThe room looks like advertised, though is a little worn down already. It would be nice if the shelf could be rebuilt and additional hooks for towels in the bathroom would be great.
The staff is very helpful and shows a lot of effort to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Marco speaks English perfectly and is always around to help. They recently started to make breakfast in the morning with no additional costs. It's fresh and tasty. They also have a water dispenser with filtered water to fill up your bottles free of charge. We used the laundry service which was quick and fairly priced.

United KingdomThat hill.... apart from that there was nothing not to like.
Everything! We loved this hotel so much we stayed an extra night. The balcony was lovely, the room was great, the staff were so nice. The best bit was the rooftop balcony with its awesome views and hammocks. Definitely eat at the Verandah restaurant down from the hotel rather than the hostel next door.

AustraliaAt night, being up in the mountains, climate being the way it is, attracted a lot of bugs & insects, which managed to find their way into the room, even with the doors closed.
Value for money was excellent, host communicated very well (English), wifi worked well. All facilities were great. Be warned, the accommodation is a 30 minute walk, all up hill, from the centre of Minca & a lot of the direction of hikes.
