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...).

United StatesMarta and Hugo were friendly and welcoming hosts! I enjoyed chatting with them throughout my stay. Marta provided some good recommendations for activities and restaurants around town as well. Good location ~ 2 blocks to the main street of town. The breakfast provided each morning (fruit, bread, coffee), as well as the filtered water, was much appreciated.

United KingdomNo windows/curtains, just shutters, so it was quite loud at night. Would recommend earbuds! No charging points near the bed.
The family (Hugo and Marta) were sooooo friendly - they helped with planning our Cocora Valley route us by drawing a map. They told us about restaurants to eat at and places to visit. They made us feel so welcome, making us coffee, fruit and bread in the morning and letting us leave our bags after check-out. Comfy beds. Warm showers! Great WiFi.

AustriaMarta was so nice and helpful, she provided us with a lot of useful and honest info about the town. The location was perfect and rather quiet. She woke us up everyday with a tiny breakfast, that was also cute. We borrowed an umbrella from her and lost it :( and thankfully, she was not mad about it. We were really sorry about that.

Amazing hospitality, the owners are so helpful, my wife became ill and Martha and her husband helped us in everyway possible, they went to the shops to get medicine, cooked her simple rice to help with digestion etc etc. The room was extremely comfortable, especially the beds! Shower was hot and had good pressure, the breakfast provided was a lovely start to the day. Martha also helped with recommendations and explain Salento to us. Highly recommend

Beautifully decorated, light and breezy but also was warm and cosy at night. Easy walk to the main area but far enough out it was nice and quiet. The owners are incredibly helpful and kind, could not recommend this place more!!! Lovely simple breakfast included and the owners have great recommendations for the local area.

United KingdomWe really enjoyed our stay at Jericho hostel, it had a nice family feel to it by the hosts. The room was a good size with shutters, a comfortable bed and several layers of covers. The bathroom and shower were separate from the room but this was fine with us and both were very clean. The hosts were amazing and so lovely. Martha gave us lots of information and recommendations when we arrived and helped us to book the best tours. She had breakfast (bread, fruit and coffee) ready whenever we got up and was always really friendly and helpful when we saw her. Thanks for making our stay so lovely.

Highly recommend staying here! Martha is such a kind host. She provides you with lots of suggestions of things to do in the area and is always a friendly welcoming face. The light breakfast of cheesy bread, fruit and coffee was a lovely touch. The beds are really comfy. We stayed an extra night as we liked Salento and this accomodation so much!

IrelandThe host was super friendly, helpful and even gave us coffee, fruit and bread every morning even though there wasn't suppose to be breakfast. Room was spacious, clean and right in the town. It was a little noisy outside but everywhere in salento opens onto the street so I think this is unavoidable unless you stay outside the town which wouldn't be as handy.

DenmarkThe room is very simple (no TV, desk or similar). Similarly, there is a private bathroom attached to the room, but it is necessary to go through the common room to reach the bathroom. However, this is reflected in the (low) price, I think.
Extremely nice hosts. The hostess had set aside time to talk about the city's various sights and opportunities, which was very valuable to us. Although it is obviously not stated in the description, there is a light breakfast included in the stay, which is of course just a positive bonus. Nice location. Good Wifi connection.
