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...).

We stayed here 5 hours and it was ok - the personnel was nice and the bathroom seemed ok.

United StatesThe private room with balcony is above the kitchen of the hostel (and its restaurant), when the kitchen is very active in cooking, there is a lot of smell and steam coming up into the rooms that are situated above the kitchen (some dorm rooms are possibly also affected). It would be good to fix this because it affects the quality of the experience. Perhaps an extractor fan of some kind would be good to build in? (Note this only happened some of the time, while the kitchen was active). Breakfast could be improved potentially. it is very basic.
Alfredo the host takes a lot of care to make sure your needs are taken care of, and flexible and helpful! Thank you. The rest of the staff working at the hostel were also very friendly and helpful. The private room with balcony is comfortable, the wifi worked very well, hot water worked without issues. Convenient location, very close to collectivos to the sacred valley. (Pisac, Calca, Urubamba)

BrazilSuper dirty, a family lives there and they are constantly frying things, making it my room, even my hair and clothes smell like fried food. The family is also very noisy. My window didn't close because there was a cable going through the window and it was very cold. It's very mouldy, which I believe is unhealthy and unsanitary. Reception is not 24/7. No one warned me about this or the need to bring a key- that I needed to ask for, so I came back one night and needed to be ringing the door from the outside until my roommate came and opened it for me.
Breakfast was ok for the price. Bread, margarine, jam, coffee and tea. Some beds had curtains (not mine) . Nice outdoor space

United KingdomThe whole place isn't like the pictures shown. The bathroom and room were very dirty, I even saw how the guy "cleaned" and at that moment I decided to change the date and leave the next day. There's no shared kitchen, you need to ask permission to the owner to use it. There's no one at the reception to speak to most of the time. No hot water no toilet roll in the bathroom.
They allowed me to check in early due to a night trip, which was very nice of them.
