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...).

PeruThe breakfast was just coffee, tea, basic bread, butter and jam and there was a bowl of chopped up pineapple that didn’t look great. I don’t know if there was more because the staff that was there completely ignored me and didn’t offer anything else. The staff is not particularly friendly but they attended ok at the reception. The breakfast staff didn’t attend me at all. WiFi was not good.
The room was large and clean, good bed and nice private bathroom. There was music in the patio till 10pm but then it was quiet. In the morning someone was sitting in the patio talking on their phone at 7am. Sound travels but it seems like at least everyone respects the hours. It’s not a party hostel. You can get in 24 hours. Good location.

GermanyWifi really sucks in this place. No wifi connection in the room. Also no window in the dorm I stayed. Apparently there is also cereal and yoghurt for breakfast but they hide it behind the counter and you have to especially ask for it. The buns for breakfast were ones of the driest I’ve ever had.
Place was ok, nothing above average

United StatesWater seemed to shut off every day for multiple hours. I think they need a bigger water tank, or to at least communicate with guests about water conservation/best hours for showering. Morning staff never showed me around or told me anything about the hostel. Fridge seemed to never get cleaned out and was always packed. Communal restrooms need more frequent cleaning.
Chill hostel with a nice breakfast included (coffee/tea, milk, scrambled egg, bread, yogurt, cereal, fruit). Probably the best price in Cusco for what you get. Really nice location on a quiet street, close to the San Pedro market and the Plaza de Armas. Cozy cinema room. Not a super social place, but there is a large common area for dining, and a small lobby.

United KingdomShower broke and the rail fell down. Water problems so no shower after a 4 day hike :s was lucky to get a dribble of water so even when it worked couldn't wash conditioner out of hair. Toilet broke - was refilling non stop loudly. Then fixed. Then a part inside broke. They did fix it. Room wasn't cleaned once. Window was open / didn't shut properly so anyone could have got in. Private room & on the last day 1 of us left (paid for the room still for the night for 2 & the other stayed) and they went to let a guy into the room for the other bed but thankfully someone was in the room or shed of come back to a guy in the room we paid for :s Went for breakfast twice and wasn't anything left or a cup for coffee or no coffee so I had 1 coffee in total. Bit of a disaster! Wish we moved or booked somewhere else but it was cheap & didn't have the energy to move or we would have done.
Location was good and it was fairly cheap. Bed was comfortable. Lockers. Cheap & ok for a night etc if things work / don't have issues with the room.

IrelandOur booking made through booking.com was not on the hostel system but they did give us a room anyways. However I expect this could have been an issue in high season if the hostel was fully booked. Breakfast was included so for our early starts (3.45 am) we had requested in advance to take a packed breakfast with us. However when we went to pick it up in the morning there was no breakfast there and we had no other option at the time of day. That said, they did have breakfast ready for us the following morning. The water frequently stopped running meaning we couldn’t always shower or use the kitchen etc. The kitchen was filthy. There was food left in pots and pans on the counter and cupboards instead of storing it in the fridge. There were frying pans full of used oil in the oven. We had specifically booked this hostel because we wanted access to a kitchen but didn’t use it again after our first experience because it was so disgusting.
The location was good. They allowed us to check in early after a night bus and provided luggage storage free of charge.
