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.).

No privacy. Booked a private room but door was open at the top. Made it really noisy while the reason i booked a private room was for it not to be noisy.

Verified reviewHorrible place that is not willing to talk about solutions and hates foreigners. The owner kicked me out of the hostel, yelled at me and pushed me because i had questions about the extra fee she asked. As a solution I paid for 1 night including the fee she asked and messaged booking with questions about the fee. The owner went absolutely crazy. She callled the Police accusing me of refusing to pay. Even tho I DID PAY for 1 nigh including fee. She refused me and 2 others as guests and did not want to give our money back. She kept our money and STILL messaged bookig, lying that i did not pay.

Verified reviewGreat location in the Candelaria neighborhood. Met great people and somehow had all I needed for the period of stay and purpose Able to cook They were able to accommodate my request of lower bed
Too many rules and controlling Lack of "full privacy" in the room that's next to the reception. When the staff/manager decides to open the door of the dorm just do so... in front of a public area open for anyone to walk in. Yes, we have curtains in each bed but was very uncomfortable to keep having the struggle If planning to cook bring your own lighter, it was a struggle to get one whenever needed I went on good season..but 1 washroom to service about 30 beds... they were doing some remodeling..not sure if all of this changed

To get in or out most of the time someone needs to open the door for you, and the internet didn't work for more than a day

Verified reviewIt was very good value for money, the dorms had curtains for privacy and the location was good.
The road noise in the 8 bed dorm is very loud. The common area is taken over on the weekends by an indoor market which block the doors to the dorms and make you feel like you are an inconvenience.
