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 KingdomI couldn't get any hot water, but I didn't mind this as it was a hot day. My bottom sheet kept popping off, so I ended up sleeping just on the plastic mattress protector. My biggest issue was the party on the Sunday night (I had only booked one night) from 4pm - midnight. Music was incredibly loud, even through ear plugs and down a floor. I wouldn't have minded so much if it was decent music you could sing along to or an eclectic mix, like a bit of something for everyone. In fact, I probably would have gone and enjoyed the party. But it was awful and I did not sleep well. Play better music or turn it down so the whole Hostal doesn't have to hear it.
Kitchen towel to dry hands in kitchen and toilets, fans, lockers all good. It was super clean, probably one of the cleanest hostels I've been to. Staff were helpful. Towels were free! Breakfast was good. Great area for restaurants. The beds had useful shelves, plugs, light and fans.

IrelandRooms are way too hot and the fans are as useful as a chocolate teapot. We had 6 of them so barely slept with the heat and noise. Some staff quite rude.

United KingdomNice, sociable hostel with comfy dorms. Lockers and plugs by the beds. Large kitchen and fridge space for guests to use, as well as a good breakfast of eggs, fruit and toast. Comfy common areas and nice terrace bar. All the staff were lovely. Great location in Poblado for bars and restaurants and close to the Metro station.

Trinidad and TobagoWhile the facilities were adequate for the price, there were some things I feel like could be improved. For instance the rooms were quite stuffy and had a bad smell. More ventilation may be needed. Also when I went to use the shower I had to immediately leave as there were roaches. The toilet was also clogged making for an unpleasant odor
I loved the atmosphere. The staff was extremely accommodating and helpful. 10/10 for the front desk staff. They were clear and excellent at communicating the rules of the hostel. The breakfast was served in a timely manner as well

First of all Lady and Carlos, best people in Colombia, these guys always will help you with anything and give best advices. If I was an owner of this hostel- I would double their salary. Location is great, quiet street but super convenient, steps to metro, restaurants, markets etc. Very cool lady who makes breakfast.

NetherlandsIts clearly a party hostel and therefore attracts a certain type of people. Not exactly the openminded and adventurous types. Rules stated that drug use was prohibited, yet people were freely using in the rooftop bar. The bar guy was just talking like a low life about cocaine and women. At the rooftop bar, everything looked fake, and felt unauthentic. Then the bedroom: ventilation was very bad. Was 40*c in the room so very difficult to sleep. Furthermore, although it was supposed to get quite late at night according to hostels policies, the "party" just kept going.
Location is good, if you like the touristy stuff and party vibes in El Poblado. Guy at the check-in was very friendly and helpful, explained all very well and made me feel at home.
