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 StatesI had the warmest welcome I ever had to a Hotel/Hostel. The staff sets a beautiful family and friends atmosphere that helps you open up and connect to them and other guests and plan things together to explore this unique island. Incredible Breakfeast every morning, every day different and served - I was really surprised and looked forward to it every morning and again it set a beautiful setting to talk and get to know eachother. The staff is extremely helpful, involved and will help you arrange and plan for things you want to do. Can also really recommend the daily tours they offer.

GermanyThe curtains on the beds would be nice for more privacy. Also would be good to have a place for drying the clothes, because the weather on the island is unpredictable , some guys from my room catched the heavy rain and dryed clothes at every free place in the room 😬
The breakfast was included in price and was amazing 🤤 Was very tasty every single day. The stuff is super friendly and helpful. Adrian met me and explained everything about the place. I liked the house, beautiful garden. For a hot days there is a small Swimmingpool 😎 On the territory the cat and 2 ducks are living. There is cozy kitchen , with fridge, lokal tea and caffemachine . In the hall u can find a shelf with useful information about what u can do on the island. It’s almost central location. The rooms and bathrooms are clean . Towel is provided. U can ask for a hairdryer on the reception also. There is an option to rent a room if hostel format is not for u. Cool that in hostel they provide activities like every day hiking tours (30€), family dinners(20€), calm tourism (cards with tasks). In the same building is restaurant where u can have a good food or just go to have a drink in the evening. I really appreciated with the community of people there.

AustriaIt is an old house an therefore you hear almost everything. The bed I was in was quite hard and I'm not picky usually.
Amazing hostel, nice garden and delicious breakfast. Good shower/bathroom, towel and bathing products are provided. Kitchen has everything you need. It's a great place to meet people (!!) also the staff is really friendly and always ready to give you recommendations. This place makes you feel like you're a part of a community. :) It is a rather unique hostel and I'd definitely stay there again.

ItalyThe room is small but comfortable. We really loved all the wooden furniture. The bed is comfy and the view of the garden from the balcony very pleasant. The building is old and refurbished with great taste, preserving the old and adding a touch of modernity. What we enjoyed most was the friendly atmosphere in the whole structure and the fact of meeting people from all over the place. We had new year's eve dinner at the hostel's restaurant and it was great. And we hung out with a bunch of the people we met that night and the following day. Breakfast is delicious.
