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 StatesAt night you need a flashlight since the property is hand constructed. Lots of rocky walkways uneven floorboards etc. You could trip in the dark so take care.
In walking distance to beach. Back to nature time if you stay here, which i liked. Good facilities in general. The price is right and good breakfasts.

BelgiumIt’s a big walk to get somewhere in the town of Uvita from the hostel. It was raining hard and most of the road had no concrete, just a dirt road. It wasn’t the walk through the multiple holes full of mud. There isn’t a place to dry the clothes when humidity Levels are high. There isn’t a strong fan to help with it.
The bed was comfy. There were multiple domestic animals in the hostel (young cats and dogs, very cute and well behaved). Cesar is a chill dude ready to pass the info about whatever (tides, tours, buses, etc)

FranceThe dorm was really hot at night due to members of the staff (with whom we shared the room) turning the fan down for no apparent reason. Other than that the stay was really enjoyable.
The hostel is located close to the beach and to the different offices that offer whale tours. The hostel is really charming and offer many relaxing spots such as hammocks. The manager is really nice and open to answer our questions.

GermanySometimes you need to wait some time until some shows up at the reception desk.
A very nice place with a well equipped kitchen. Perfect to rest a bit after a day at the ocean or in the mountains. Given the fact nothing is close in uvita the location between the beach and the center is also quite convenient.

FinlandThe kitchen is pretty small so only about 1-2 people can be cooking at the same time. There could be more showers and toilets. It was a bit noisy during the night because there were dogs barking around the neighbourhood.
The owner is super nice and helpful as well as the other staff. The hostel is clean and peaceful and has a nice and welcoming athmosphere. You can rent surfboards and bikes and book tours straight from the hostel which is really convenient! We enjoyed our stay :)

United StatesThere weren’t fans for all of the beds. This wasn’t a problem for me because I was the only one staying there but would definitely have been an issue if I didn’t have a fan as it was pretty hot. It is kind of in the middle of nowhere and there aren’t many street lights on the dirt road that it’s off of so it wasn’t ideal to walk around at night.
There’s a ton of hammocks set up in all of the common spaces for relaxing. The setting was very beautiful as you were pretty much in the jungle. The location was great as it was about a 15 minute walk to Uvita, Marino Bellena, and Bahia. Laundry was cheap and prompt!

United Statesgo with a camping/surf camp mindset - if this is your vibe, great - you’ll sweat and see bugs and frogs and lizards, maybe a bat! if you want a little more refinement or bougie comforts, it’s not for you.
chill youthful vibe country setting very much a surf camp idea. go in with the idea of a surf camp and you’ll be good. different noises than usual at night - more dogs, fewer loud motorbikes, maybe a little late-night foosball (not a problem depending on your room location). very convenient to the national park beach, setting with hammocks and plants. good kitchen.
