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.).

Verified reviewThis was a last minute booking due to flight change. It was close to the airport and available.
We were charged for two rooms but only need one room and only used one room however still charged for two. There was a cat in the house, we are allergic to cats. There was also a street dog on premise.

Verified reviewI booked the hotel because of the cool looking swimming pool, which is a great way of relaxing after a long flight. Unfortunately and surprisingly, the pool was closed!

Verified reviewEverything. It is super close to the airport so was perfect for me after a flight and for only one night in Quito. The place is peaceful and quiet with pleasant interior and beautiful yard, great breakfest and great host. Loved the free tea and coffee as well, this is a home away from home.
Nothing, this place is perfect.

Verified reviewWow everyrthing - a very pleasent place only ten minutea drive from quito's airport. The way from arrivals to peace and quite has never been shorter for me. Spacious rooms, beautiful yard, tea and coffee available all the time and the girl in reception offered me to go with her to the shops where she showed me where I can eat and how to get back from there. Highly recommended, especially if you dont want to get in the city.
Nothing, everything was great :)

Verified reviewWe like the quaintness of the family owned hostel. We arrived later than planned on December 31st, and the owner responded quickly to our arrival. We were able to join the New Year Eve festivities and dinner. The best!
The distance from Quito was a tad far. Fortunately, we had prearranged full day tours for our stay. No close by eating establishments.

Verified reviewA nice property, close to the airport, for a one night. It was in a secure complex and the food was good value.
There wasn’t much to do in the local area but this isn’t a problem for a one night stay.

Verified reviewIt is very close by the airport (5-10 min by taxi) so we stayed both times we had to fly in and out of quito. The hotel is beautiful with a big garden an pool. The owner is very friendly and cooks a delicious dinner for only 10 dollars if you ask. Also the hotelgarden is walled off so it feels very safe.
You can sometimes hear the airplanes fly over but with earplugs this is no problem.

Verified reviewBreakfast consisted of coffee, fruit juice, scrambled eggs, a mixture of really fresh fruit pieces and toasted bread with butter and jam. Gives you a good start into the day. The personal was very friendly, accommodating and helpful. The location is very quiet, but just a short walk from the park and some restaurants.
the garden looks a bit neglected and the furnishings do not seem to fit with the rest of the beautiful building. To be fair, it was very dry everywhere, no rain for several weeks.

Verified reviewThe staff were very friendly and helpful and the hostel had a relaxed atmosphere. The rooms were basic but clean and functional. Breakfast was nice. The hostel was well located for the airport, being about 15 mins away and a $10 to 20 ride depending on whether you use Uber or a taxi. It is about a 40 min ride from the centre of Quito, but that is only $10 by Uber at a non-peak time.
