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...).

Switzerland(I was staying at a single room). 1) Freezing in the room, particularly the first night, and there were no blankets in the room 2) Humidity smell in the room 3) Bed/pillows a bit old and dusty/smelly of humidity 4) TV didn’t manage to work it out in the room, not sure if not working or not user-friendly. If it works, a guide in the room would help 5) There is no kettle in the room or the kitchen. This would be great to have
A lot of things were great: 1) The staff in reception, who give you a personalised and sweet service (Leo, Camila and Mary). Also the waiter (Douglas? Sorry, very bad at remembering names) was super friendly. 2) Breakfast was outstanding. Congratulations to the chef! 3) The hostel itself is beautiful and has plenty of spaces for socialising 4) All very clean 5) Walking and bike tours offered by the hostel were nice

ArubaThe breakfast was quite expensive and not much of a verriety.
It's probably the best hostel in that area. The suite was very confy and spacious with a modern touch. Has it's own walkway and patio. The location is close to the mainstreet, and Chorro de Quevedo.

Everything. One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Andy and his family run a great hostel. Relaxed and a really beautiful building. Love that it’s an independent hostel and the ‘pod’ dorms are next level. Spent NYE at the hostel where they put on a ripping bbq and had a lot of their friends around creating a great vibe.

GermanyPerfectly located in the old city center, only a few minutes walk to the main spots and plenty of bars just around the corner. Open, perfectly friendly and accommodating staff. Rooms are basic but completely fine for a 2 or 3 nights stay (and also larger than most of the other hostel rooms we have lived in).

United KingdomI found the bathroom floor to be very slippery and there was no mat of any kind to stand on. I agree with another reviewer that the music volume in the common area is too high and makes it difficult to chat.
I've stayed in many hostels around the world and this has to be in the top 3, maybe even no.1! The place was clean and very comfortable and the staff were amazing, really friendly and helpful. Andrew, the owner, loves to make everyone feel welcome and part of the family. Transport to and from the airport was arranged for me and they also have sim cards available if you need one. There are a number of activities you can do and I highly recommend the walking tour with Nick that included food tasting and a game of tejo. Great fun! The BBQ was also good and the food was yummy. There is a bar/cafe on site that is reasonably priced, the breakfast is especially good and the guys working it are great. My bed was comfortable (single attic room) and although the room was tiny it was private and very cosy and with natural ventilation (no window but this also meant limited street noise). I loved this hostel so much, I'll be staying there again before I leave beautiful Colombia.
