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.).

CanadaToo many rules and controlling Lack of "full privacy" in the room that's next to the reception. When the staff/manager decides to open the door of the dorm just do so... in front of a public area open for anyone to walk in. Yes, we have curtains in each bed but was very uncomfortable to keep having the struggle If planning to cook bring your own lighter, it was a struggle to get one whenever needed I went on good season..but 1 washroom to service about 30 beds... they were doing some remodeling..not sure if all of this changed
Great location in the Candelaria neighborhood. Met great people and somehow had all I needed for the period of stay and purpose Able to cook They were able to accommodate my request of lower bed

United KingdomThe road noise in the 8 bed dorm is very loud. The common area is taken over on the weekends by an indoor market which block the doors to the dorms and make you feel like you are an inconvenience.
It was very good value for money, the dorms had curtains for privacy and the location was good.

SwitzerlandThe courtains of the room were not very good (see-through) and the light out in the hall was automatic, so everytime someone walked past, it was very bright in our room. That wasnt very nice to sleep, so we put towles on the window. Also, if you are chilling on the terrace or living room area past 10.30 pm, the owner will tell you to keep it down, which is a bit annoying since a hostel is supposed to be about meeting new people and enjoying your time. Otherwise its a nice place to stay at.
We stayed in a privat room. The bed was comfy and they gave us towles for showering. The hostel is very close to everything you need: museums, bars, restaurants etc.

ColombiaThey definitely need to add a small lamp or LED light to each bed space. There's an automatic bright light on at night every time some enters OR leaves the room, which is extremely disturbing, especially if you're trying to fall asleep (this goes on until 11 p.m. or so). There are very few bathrooms for the lot o people who have shared dorms, it seems. The stairs to the terrace are pretty steep. It'd be nice to get some kind of support for older guests to be able to climb there.
Located in La Candelaria, at a relatively safe though noisy spot. Nicolás offered great service, and made sure everyone was comfortable. My favorite thing was the comfort of the beds (in my room for 10 people). There is a big social area, though chairs are not that comfortable for one to say there long.

ColombiaMy dorm was right next to the street, so it was extremely noisy outside until 11:30 p.m., and since 5:30 a.m. I thought rooms would be deeper into the building. I didn't ask for a quieter one in advance :( Apart from that, my dorm was right next to the reception/social area, and staff and guests can talk very loud, though it gets quieter after 11 p.m. I understand these are dorms for 10 people, but the lockers under each bunk bed are very small, so if you have a large backpack, you'll have to pile it somewhere, or put in on your own bed. I appreciate there are lockers at all, though.
The location is very convenient if you want to visit historical sites in the city. The bed in my dorm were super comfortable, though I got very cold at night. There's a kitchen area, with a large table for people to share if they like. Lots of safety at the main door. Staff makes sure everything runs smoothly. Rules and important safety information are posted all over the hostel in English and Spanish.

United KingdomI had booked what is called on booking "An individual room economic - 2 beds". I had the option to pay for 2 persons (60,000) or for one person (35,600), I choose the second option. My understanding was that it would be a simple room with 2 beds and obviously, not a dorm (which also cost less there than what I paid for the room, obviously). When I arrived, I was given an empty 4 beds dorm and although I explained and showed my booking, there was a lot of confusing explanations given such as, in fact the 2 beds advertised are a bunk bed,... ?..? After some discussion, it was agreed that I could have the dorm for myself which was not a problem for me. They had individual room but I was not offered this, as it seems that it was already booked,... Knowing that I had paid extra for the individual room, there was no offer to compensate for the extra amount I had paid,... A positive point was that I was able to extend my stay as I had a late fight but it was heavily compensate financially, ... I was initially asked the price of the night and I thought that having made an error, they could have done a gesture. So all in all, I was happy to have the room for myself and I slept well but I thought there was a lack of honesty in the explanation given and a lack of transparency (if you had double booked the room, just say it and we arrange something else),... I had the impression that they knew what was happening but were trying to get as much money out of me as possible,... and all with a smile so for that part, not so convinced. All in all, it served the purpose of what I needed the room for. Sleep and rest.
The central location, the friendliness and willingness of the volunteer/staff to resolve issue, the spacious kicthen, the clean showers with hot water and the general cleanliness of the place, the comfy bed, good initial communication with the hotel,... And, for that particular time, the quietness of the place and the flexibility (heavily charged) of the check-in and out. So overall, it was a good stay but there was some issue (resolved) with the room that I had booked (See below).
