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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomThis place is like an oasis in the old town Bogota. We enjoyed our 2 nights spent here. The place has attitude, and the staff was just amazing. The room was just perfect, heated floor was just like a surprise for us. We felt sorrowful when we had to leave.

ItalyI stayed 4 days and I would have liked the bathroom cleaned maybe once during that time. But to be fair, I didn't ask for this, so ...
Everything! Laid-back friendly atmosphere, although I didn't use any of their suggestions for things to do, there was plenty there to suit all ages.Staff really friendly and helpful, eg when I asked about a car to the airport, they volunteered info about another traveller going at the same time so we could share the ride. Had one breakfast with them, v tasty. Room a good standard and bathroom excellent. Quiet at night.

United StatesSome guests were a bit noisy in the small dorm room since it does feel quite private.
The location was excellent and I liked the layout of the sleeping “pods”. It felt very private and comfortable.

United KingdomMy only complaint is the bed! It’s the hardest bed I’ve encountered in my month of travelling in Colombia. I struggled to get a goods nights sleep in it and actually found it quite painful to try to lie on my side with how hard it was. After the first night I spoke to reception who were so friendly and helpful. They asked house keeping to check it for me that day and apparently all the beds were like that. They did offer for me to try a different room but seeing I was just staying one more night and they told me all the beds were the same I chose not to move rooms. This would be the only thing that would stop me booking to stay here again.
I really enjoyed my stay here. The location was good, all the staff I encountered were very friendly and helpful. The bar area was great for socialising in the evening and the food served was a good price and decent quality. I booked a private double room which was clean with a good shower. My room was far enough away from the social area that I didn’t get disturbed by noise once as called it a night.

United StatesIt’s a lively hostel with friendly staff. I highly recommend booking an airport pick up shuttle with the hostel if you arrive early morning or late at night. My flight arrived at 4am, driver picked me up and I was able to get a bed right away once we arrived at the hostel for an extra charge. It’s very convenient that the kitchen open for breakfast and dinner. Huge shoutout to Robert who was so kind and went the extra mile to ensure my stay was great. The only thing I regret is not booking a private room. I stayed in the mixed pod, people were loud and kinda disrespectful - watch movies on speaker at midnight, slam doors when they go in and out, etc. But this has nothing to do with the hostel, unfortunately some people are just inconsiderate. One more thing I will add, after my 5 night stay here I decided to book another place in Chapinero (northern part of Bogotá) and I felt much safer and relaxed there as a solo female traveller in my early 30s. The location of this hostel is great if you are only here to do the touristy stuff, see La Candelaria (“old town” of Bogotá) and visit Monterrate. But if you are slow traveling like myself and want to see the authentic Bogotá city life, I highly recommend staying a couple nights in one of the neighborhoods in northern part of Bogotá.

Switzerland(I was staying at a single room). 1) Freezing in the room, particularly the first night, and there were no blankets in the room 2) Humidity smell in the room 3) Bed/pillows a bit old and dusty/smelly of humidity 4) TV didn’t manage to work it out in the room, not sure if not working or not user-friendly. If it works, a guide in the room would help 5) There is no kettle in the room or the kitchen. This would be great to have
A lot of things were great: 1) The staff in reception, who give you a personalised and sweet service (Leo, Camila and Mary). Also the waiter (Douglas? Sorry, very bad at remembering names) was super friendly. 2) Breakfast was outstanding. Congratulations to the chef! 3) The hostel itself is beautiful and has plenty of spaces for socialising 4) All very clean 5) Walking and bike tours offered by the hostel were nice
