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.).

ArgentinaNothing to complain about.
Great hostel, staff friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and spacious, with lockers. Bathrooms are very clean and big. Breakfast is good enough for what you pay for the accommodation. All the building is heated by central heating. Location is quite far from the city centre (2,5km) but they have a transport service for free 5 times a day. All in all it was a great experience and the hostel is fully recommended.

NetherlandsMaybe we missed it but it wasn’t clear to us that the cabañas were not close to the hostel. We had booked this property to get to know a few more people but it was not possible without trekking back and forth from the hostel.
We stayed in one of the very cute cabañas. It has two floors and a beautiful view. Very cozy!

United Statesa bit far from city center, but worth the walk. You can walk alone the lake to get hear :D
Wonderful view from the hostel. Very spacious place. It was low season when we came, so we practically had the whole hostel to ourselves :D Great wifi for work. *most importantly, this hostel did not take advantage of us as tourists. We didn't even have to show Booking.com terms. They charged us honestly. We stayed at quite a few throughout our 2 months in Argentina, many would add extra charges.

SwitzerlandNot about the accomodation but el calafate has an issue with western union. Runs out of cash or is closed, request a paper copy and has a max amount. So bring your cash from ushuaha or BA.
Basic breakfast, good wifi and during the day free shuttle to the center.

ThailandA bit further from town center but they have a free shuttle at the hostel and it is walking distance if you need to go at a different time.
We stayed in the cabins and then also in the hostel and both were great!! They are clean and comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The WiFi is good and the view from the cabins is beautiful. The hostel kitchen is also well equipped and the free breakfast was great! Definitely recommend this place to anyone in El Calafate.

United KingdomThey offer a laundry service but said they were too busy to do it on the day we arrived and the reception said we could do it the next day. We came back the next morning and they then said again they couldn't do it. Wasted our time with this and ended up bringing our clothes into the town to wash. Its also quite far out of the town, there is a shuttle bus but not very often so we ended up walking the 2km quite a few times.
Big kitchen to cook in and good area to sit and have a drink in common areas. We were able to leave our hire car directly outside the hostel as plenty of on street parking. The dorm bedrooms were very comfortable, and the bathrooms were clean.
