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...).

IsraelA taxi is required to get to the main city
The place is higher than the main city and it was a great shelter during the tsunami alert. They sent a driver to take us from the city at night and this was helpful. The room is big , tasty breakfast . Pleasant to stay.

AustraliaI liked everything.
The breakfast was lovely with beautiful fresh fruit. When we arrived, the host sorted a cab for Porta Aroya (Santa Crus Island) where we spent the day. The hotel is located in beautiful quiet surroundings with plants. We only spent one day and night, but it would have been nice to stay longer. The hosts were helpful and organised a taxi to the Baltra airport.

United StatesI hated to leave.
I adored my time here. I would have loved to stay more days. The property is so beautiful and comforting. The staff was so kind and accommodating. The food was great. They arranged all tours and transportation. They even did our laundry. I can't wait to come back.

United StatesThe bedroom did not have air-conditioning, and coordinating pickups was complex, as they tried to sell additional services, with unclear costs.
Centrally located hotel for a few activities we had planned.

United StatesWe were provided a wonderful meal the first night we arrived; the cost was not shared with us until we received the notification on our bill the following day. The meal was amazing, so I don't want to reflect negatively on that. It's just a good idea to let guests know ahead of time what they will be paying.
Jose provided excellent recommendations for economic tours - he made the arrangements for us and explained what would make our short visit most meaningful.

United StatesThe staff is wonderful and clearly enjoy what they do. Because it is away from the busyness of the downtown area, it has a quiet retreat feel. I also enjoyed seeing the garden from my room.

Finland‼️‼️‼️ It was my dream to visit Galapagos Islands, it became a nightmare and trauma 😭😭😭 Please, read the whole review!!!
This place is a complete scam and a waste of money, nothing is true to what is said in the presentation and neither are the pictures. The location is in the middle of nowhere and you are forced to eat overpriced and small portions of home cooking, what they call a "restaurant ". The whole place is like a floor-to-ceiling construction site, which is full of mold. The mold starts in the garden and the whole building is full of it, even the bed felt wet. We didn't even want to take a shower because there was mold everywhere and it immediately started affecting our breath. Also, at night the place is full of black worms that come from everywhere; from holes in the wall and under doors, to spend the night. The atmosphere is twisted and strange. Upon arrival, we were shown three different apartments, all of which were unfinished. In the end we got 2 different, half rooms, which were empty, they didn't even have a wardrobe, just beds. The "fully equipped" kitchen was a sink, we got some extras when we asked for them: 4 plates, cutlery and 2 cups that we didn't do anything with because there wasn't even a microwave. We got the refrigerator and the safe by asking. At the same time, we were sold "island tours" for 300€/person, which our friends got from the travel store in Puerto Ayora for 30€/person. A creepy place, like from a horror movie and a truly traumatizing experience. We don't understand how booking.com usually even markets such a place, at least it doesn't take responsibility for anything. This place shouldn't exist, they are playing with people's health...(whole Galapagos Islands is just a robbery though...)

Switzerland1. No welcome from the owner. The only sentence pronounced was: please pay asap. 2. Location is isolated. 3. No staff except 1 lady who doesn't speak any other language except local Spanish. 4. No menu. Food is provided without any choice. 5. No extra blanket. 6. Not clean. 7. NO VALUE FOR MONEY. 8. The pictures do not represent reality.. This is not a hotel!! Just people providing a location to get money. Not even worth 1 star !!!!
