Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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 KingdomA little pricey. Couple of small windows that didn't have blinds. Shame we couldn't get a late checkout particularly as the hotel was empty 😞
Good, quiet location half way between Port/Concha de Perla and the town. Clean, comfy, large room with nice bathroom. Staff were very friendly. Good air-conditioning and WiFi.

United States of AmericaInternet isn't great but that was common in the Galapagos. We paid more money than it looked like others were charging for the tours they arranged for us but we never figured out why that was so I would say shop the tours.
The staff is friendly, the breakfast was good, the rooms were clean and comfortable. The location is great - it's in between the main town area and the pier (where you can snorkel and see the sea lions, iguanas and crabs hanging out), so a short walk to both.

United States of AmericaOur room was pretty small. Location is close to the dock but a dusty walk to town. I sent a couple messages via Booking.com before our trip and never heard back. Like elsewhere on Isabela, the wifi is extremely limited. Note that the hotel prefers to be paid in cash.
Nice place, very helpful owner with excellent English who kindly got us last-minute reservations for a volcano tour. Tasty breakfast in the outdoor patio. Our room was clean and pleasant.

Closest hotel to Concha de Perla snorkeling and to the FERRY PIER. Restaurant meals on site upon request (breakfast was included). Great facilities for scuba/snorkelers wanting to rinse gear and hang dry safely outside.

Hong KongThe water pressure was unstable. The manager arranged another room for us. The situation became better after we changed rooms, but was still somewhat unstable.
The vibe was great! We had a good time just chilling in the lounge on the second floor. The manager (Jose) and all other staff were super friendly and helpful. We had a boat at 5:30am and Jose got up at 5 to make sure we had some coffee and bread before we departed. The location was also great - 10mins walk to the main street for food and 5mins walk to the pier and Concha y Pearla (this is the best location for snorkeling on Isabella cuz you dont need a tour or a boat and you just dive in, and this became our usual hang-out sport after breakfast). In fact the hotel is one of the few hotels that are close to the ferry.

United States of AmericaI did not realize that the hotel is located on the heavily traveled main road from the pier to the town. So, it can get noisy with all the trucks going up and down when ferries/tours arrive and depart. The room we had was small with the bed occupying most of it. There is no safe in the room, so be prepared to lock your suitcase if you need to. The walls are thin and you can hear your neighbors and sounds from the kitchen and dining area - we were lucky in that we were the only ones in that wing/hotel for most of our stay. Wifi is slow which can be a problem when it comes to paying with a credit card - we ended up having to pay with cash. Luckily we had enough to cover our stay.
Wooden House is a great little boutique B&B run very efficiently by young Jose. It is walking distance from the pier - we took taxis because of luggage but they are very cheap. It is an easy walk from the hotel to the beach and town in one direction and in the other to the best self snorkeling area ever, Concha de Perla (near the pier). The hotel's aesthetic reminded me of a Japanese house - all wooden with sliding doors, nice cool and breezy common sitting area just outside the rooms on the upper floor which has a good view of the ocean across the street. The breakfast is excellent and Jose was very accommodating about having it ready before early trips. We also had dinner and drinks there which is very convenient. There was always hot water for showers, plenty of drinking water, water for brushing teeth as tap water can't be used for that, convenient drying line outdoors, onsite laundry service, convenient outlets for charging phones, batteries, etc. Jose is very helpful with information about sight seeing locations, restaurants, calling for taxis, and arranging trips - like the excellent one to the highlands when we had a spare morning. There is a place onsite for rental snorkeling gear, wet suits, etc. The staff were friendly and kept the place very clean.
