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...).

IrelandNothing!!!
Amazing vibe at the hostel, Puerto Dreams has everything you need for a short or long stay in Puerto - the cafe is amazing, Adryan is a fantastic barista who puts a lot of love into what he does. The rooftop bar always has a great vibe thanks to Francesco and Gio. Great late night tacos right across the road, there is a lovely family run lavanderia right next door, the volunteers give the place a lot of energy, and the activities are always enjoyable ranging from day trips, salsa classes and jewellery workshops. It used to be 2 different hostels but now they are joined together which is super cool as well because it is like 2 hostels in 1 - there are loads of different places to hang out and meet people, there are 2 large kitchens and lots of different dorms/private rooms to suit everyone. It is also in a great location in centro which is close to some nice beaches. I have loved my stay here so much and would recommend it to solo travellers especially as it has been a great place to meet new people and make life long friends.

NetherlandsThe location is in Centro, I actually really liked it because you are not in the party area. I prefer to go there, which is really easy with a collectivo, but for some it might be a little farther away.
The vibe is very chill, they’ve got everything you need. Puerto Dreams even has a specialty coffee in house which is very good. Staff is friendly and the rooftop plus bar is very nice. Recommend joining salsa nights, but all activities as usually well organized. Would definitely come back 😃

United KingdomRoom was so comfortable and the facilities were great. Location was great as I was near Carrazillo beach, It is one of several locations I’ve stayed in Puerto and it is easily the best for location, facilities and atmosphere. Stayed in a comfortable private room and the volunteers made me feel so welcomed, shoutout to Joanna, Natalia, Mario, Fritz, Danny, Karina, Emily and Wario. The atmosphere is social but is just right and they have daily activities were I went on a sunset hike one night and salsa night the next

FranceMy stay in Puerto Dreams was full of beautiful moments. The staff was absolutely gorgeous and the activities were very different wich allow to please everyone. The bar and the coffee shop were on point, it's one of the best coffees and cinnamon rolls I've had in a long time traveling. The room was very pleasant with a lot of space and a really confortable bed.

AustriaIt’s super noisy as there are parties going on every evening - even hard to sleep with earplugs, but it doesn’t go forever, so it’s ok :D Not that many great restaurant close
Beautiful hostel, clean rooms, spacious rooftop with bar and kitchen, a café in the hostel and most of the staff was really friendly besides one person that rather seemed to be pissed when you were asking for something …

GermanyIt’s a bit far from everything in puerto, nearest beach is 20-25 minutes to walk, also most restaurants in the nearer area close early or are not very special. So you will walk really a lot or you have to take always the colectivo to go somewhere.
It’s a nice hostel, clean, Internet is working well. 1 km to the ADO station. Staff is nice, a lot of volunteers are running the place. In the evening they made a really good feeling at the roof top bar for all the group. Lucas was very helpful for me and my activities there.

MexicoSuch a special place. Loved the aesthetic design in common areas and rooms. The location is amazing, in the vibrant centre just by the local market and cheap delicious food places. The cleaning staff does a great job at keeping the spaces lovely and inviting, and the volunteers organise activities every day, which made it super easy for me to socialise with other solo travellers. Does at great job at being social, but not a party hostel. Would definitely recommend to a friend!

VietnamMy stay at Puerto dreams was amazing!! The atmosphere is great and the staff and volunteers were very lovely. The hostel is very clean and has great coworking spaces. I especially loved the rooftop for hanging out and meeting other guests. It is possible to rent a scooter at the hostel which is a great option to get around puerto and visit all of the different beaches. I had such a great time here. I am already looking forward to coming back! :)

New ZealandIt’s all young volunteers running the place so as stated previously only for the very easy going. Kitchen was kept clean enough but the fridge was heaving at all times so maybe they need another one. Evening activities were a hit and miss.
We got a private room which was very spacious. It’s cool for backpackers who like to just take it easy and chill out. There was a cute coffee van out front everyday. Like the location cause it wasn’t where all the tourist traps are down by the main beach. We had a more authentic experience of Puerto Escondido compared to others I know. All their facilities are pretty good.
