Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Costa RicaThe hostal is far from the town center and I needed to pay taxis to get to go to tours and food. If you're not renting a car consider adding between 4-5 USD per trip

I loved how laid back and private it is. The views are amazing day and night . You can really catch the sunrise and a stargaze at night. I loved the atmosphere, it was very welcoming. The hosts were amazing in accommodating our needs. I love the location it’s not too far from main town/streets.

Switzerland- Wifi is not always consistent but with a bit of patience good enough to plan trips and reserve tickets / book tours.
Very happy with my stay at the Atacama Checar Hostel. The location was very quiet and safe with a wonderful view on the volcanoes/stars (especially from their roof top lounge area). Especially the staff / host were very helpful and gave me a lot of insights regarding places to visit and at which time. They were also a great help with booking bus tickets to Calama / Antofagasta for me which was not possible as a foreigner with European debit / credit cards. The laundry service provided at the hostel was also very convenient and a major plus.

United StatesThe only complaint would be that the shower temperature would fluctuate, and after the first couple minutes, I sometimes couldn't get the hot water to come back. It was very difficult to get a good temperature. Otherwise, the bathroom was large and comfortable and there was good water pressure.
The staff was amazing! I don't speak Spanish, but they used Google translate on their phone to communicate. They were very kind and helpful, and when I had to leave very early in the morning, they even left me a to-go snack in lieu of breakfast! Very nice!

Just outside town so quiet and safe. The hosts are extremely helpful and accommodating! The astronomy tour they arranged for us was absolutely incredible! You need a car or motorcycle(or bicycle)to go back and forth to town but it’s better to stay out of town because the rooms are bigger, great breakfast and more economical!!!

United KingdomThe neighbour’s donkey doesn’t like sleeping and the rooster wakes up way too early. Earplugs recommended for light sleepers.
The hostel is lovely and nicely decorated. The owners are very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. We rented a car, so it was easy to reach the center of San Pedro, that would otherwise be a 30min walk. On the first day, when we didn’t have the car yet, the owner gave us a lift to San Pedro and picked us up in the evening. They also helped us with arranging the airport transfer and gave us precious indications for reaching all the main attractions around San Pedro. The room was cleaned every other day. The breakfast is simple but good. When we needed to leave at 4:30am to visit El Tatio, they prepared an on the go breakfast for us.

Hosts were extremely helpful, even though they didn't speak English and we didn't speak Spanish - very proficient use of google translator. They explained a lot, prepared breakfast to go when we went to El Tatio at 4:00, helped with tickets over Spanish only website, etc. Breakfast was ham and cheese, coffee, very tasty yogurt, cereal. Location was within 10 minutes drive of San Pedro.

Slovakiaeverything was perfect
Extremely kind and helpful staff, they answered all our questions we had before the arrival and also, during the stay, they gave us a lot of very useful tips (where to eat, tips for trips, also arranged a tour with an agency for us). The hostal is located in a quiet place, with beautiful scenery and a view of a volcano from the terrace. The breakfast was excellent, they even made a breakfast package for us when we went for a tour early in the morning. Big room, very comfy bed. It's obvious that the owners pay attention to every detail and do their job with heart. Definitely the best place we stayed during our 2 weeks in Chile.
