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.).

GermanyIt was on the perfect location. It is a hostel, but after staying in many of them, it is definetely among the better ones. Beds were clean, staff was friendly, the beach is at your doorstep and the kitchen with the view is just amazing

United StatesNo breakfast. People would mess the floor outside shower stalls. Too many beds in one large room made for a noisy night (loud snoring, dragging of drawers underneath beds. Lack of privacy due to no curtains on beds. A/C convention at 24oC was low for me. People were allowed to cover window views by hanging clothing to dry on it. Unpleasant smell at reception. Need to improve first impression, as reception does not look pleasant.
Cleanliness of room, bed clothing, bathrooms. Incredible views of beach and lighthouse from room’s windows. Good storage space. Excellent location. Helpfulness of most staff members.

United KingdomThis seems like the kind of hostel that has a lot of regulars/longterm guests which means the atmosphere isn't great for backpackers. Also one night I came back at 2am and the door was locked and no one answered the bell, luckily I called my friend who woke up to alert the receptionist that I was outside.
The location is amazing and the view.

ColombiaWifi was pretty much non-existent. If you're planning on getting some work done/using your computer, be prepared to rely on your own mobile data. Also, if you're in a top bunk, you won't have a socket your bed, which makes it impossible to lie down and use your phone while it charges and also meant I had to charge it before going to sleep. Also while I appreciate the wide lockers, the room's floor was chipped-away concrete, so pulling the lockers out from beneath the bed was super noisy, which sucks if you don't want to disturb others.
Great location! Friendly staff, good number of showers and toilets, ample kitchen area with several tables and a nice view towards the sea. I also appreciated the space to hang your clothes to dry - super helpful when you want to wash/dry clothes after going to the beach. Unrelated, but I also liked the gelato and tapioca spots right downstairs.
