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...).

United StatesBathrooms were only 2 per female (presumably similar for male) so they were heavily used but not well attended. I feel like with so many people using them a daily cleaning would be necessary which didn't seem to be the case.
Location was good, people were nice, everything thing was ok. I would stay again but probably not the first choice on the island. Rooms were clean.

GermanyAmazing little hostel, with a prime location to reach everything easily. Rooms were comfortable and despite being a bit smaller there was enough storage for bags and suitcases so that you still could easily move around. Kitchen is nicely equipped and the breakfast super nice with toasts, avocado, cream cheese, fruits and coffee tea (even soy milk available) which all of which you can even get a little more of if you'd like. All the staff is doing an amazing job of making you feel welcomed, at home and part of their little family, made it hard to leave the place. Thanks a lot for an amazing stay to everyone ❤️ will come back!

United StatesFirst impression the place was dark and claustrophobic. bathrooms not adequate at all very small with door in front of your face, shower dark and problem with the drainage. needs major renovation in my view. We only stayed because it was close to the beach. Staff with attitude is not want you want to hear or see in a relaxing vacation.

CanadaI agree with one of the comments saying that the breakfast is late (8:30 am).
I had a wonderful stay Itze Hostel. The place is well located and close to the beach and restaurants. The place has also one of the best breakfasts (eggs, avocado, cream cheese, coffee, tea, and toast) I had in a hostel. The girls in the room I stayed in were also friendly and respects quiet time. On the day of leaving, I was so in a hurry to catch the ferry so that I can make it to the airport for my flight that I forgot to check out and return the keys and I'm so sorry for that. I probably also forgot my padlock (for my bag) in the hostel room.

The hostesses are absolutely lovely and so helpful. They made our trip perfect. And I love how they have decorated the property with their own shells., Mirrors, and personal touches throughout. It felt so homey, and everyone was so thoughtful. They fixed us a little breakfast and took care of us as though we were family. I love this place.

Good AC kept us comfy but the room was small and lacked any real community area. The kitchen was open to guests only during feeding time and the Drill Sergeant was quite firm in explaining the many rules. Good location near the beach but cramped.

NetherlandsThe bed was absolutely terrible. The mattress felt like it was at least 20 years old where you could feel every spring poking into your back. The sheets were slightly too small so they came off 4 times during the night.
Staff is very friendly. We had a double room which, although not big did not feel cramped. The AC worked great and the toilets and kitchen were clean. The location is good, within walking distance of the ferry and close to beaches.
