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.).

United StatesThe electric showerhead- didn’t maintain temperature evenly always. But better than other places we stayed!!
Breakfast was AMAZING!! Beautiful location on the Isla del Sol!! Just a farther up the hill (which we didn’t realize was so steep!) and being such high altitude for us sea level people, it was challenging to climb the stairs there. But once there, wonderful experience!! Beautiful room with a view!!

GermanyBeautiful hotel – our room had the most incredible view of the titicaca lake! It was spacious, cozy and clean and the owner of the hotel was exceptionally kind. She cooked a great dinner for us and the breakfast was rich and tasty. The path from the harbor to the hotel is very steep (that’s true for all hotels on the island), so it is better not to bring a big suitcase. We did – luckily you can pay for a donkey to carry up your luggage.

Sonia was so helpful, welcoming and friendly. She was patient with our lack of Spanish and provided a delicious, fresh breakfast each morning. The view from our window was spectacular! It was worth the climb up the steep Inca steps to get there. The location was perfect for coming off the boat and was a short walk to restaurants. The hostel also offers dinner if desired.

United StatesGreat place that is very clean and big rooms. Great view as well for the sunrise. Also the host was very nice and a big good breakfast. Just be aware it is not on the main road so i missed the turn to the place a few times so make sure you take a map snapshot of the route to get there as you may or may not have mobile reception on the walk up to the place.

SwedenIt is obviously not the hotel's fault, but it is set rather high up from the harbour. This gives excellent views, but can be a relatively tiring for somebody who is not adapted to altitude. Nights are cold on the island and isolation of the rooms could be improved. But plenty of blankets are provided as well as a radiator.
This hotel was a very pleasant surprise. It is beautifully located and staff is very nice. From the hotel it is easy to set out on walks, and Yumani itself is one of the prettiest villages in Bolivia. The hotel staff was also very helpful in arranging boat transport around the island and to Copacabana. We also had dinner at the hotel, which was very good both in culinary and value for money terms.

Breakfast was plentiful and delicious, we also had trout lunch the next day and would recommend. Nice space to sit and enjoy the view both outside, from the room and the restaurant.

United KingdomThe shower pressure wasn’t great and we did not have a hot shower on our first night of arriving. Considering the remote and rural location, this issue was understandable.
The location, view and overall provisions were ideal. Sonia the host was so kind and helpful. She made a beautiful breakfast. We did not expect a 30 minute uphill walk from the Southern-most port (with ALL our luggage), however we were relieved to find that this property is located at about half the elevation of the whole island settlement. After we dropped our bags, it was much easier to access the main village or Pueblo in a 5 minute walk (without bags!)

PhilippinesHot water has very low pressure. Wifi was unstable.
Breakfast was nice (fresh orange juice, scrambled eggs, a choice of tea, and homemade bread with butter, strawberry jam, and cheese). Dinner was okay. The family was very accommodating and friendly. The hotel’s location is very close to the end of the stairs from yumani port. The view from the room was amazing!

United KingdomA bit pricey compared to other places on the island - but might speak to the amenities. Wi-Fi intermittent but generally fine.
Lovely retreat from which to explore Isla del Sol. Clean and comfortable and despite other comments I had no issue with the shower, and thought it was easy enough to use. Beautiful views from the rooms and terrace. Really helpful owner who will share her expertise to help you get the most out of your stay on the island. Very good food.

United StatesThe shower is a bit of a mess. Can get hot water but with such a low pressure that I was actually freezing while taking it. They provide the heater but it's so weak that the only way to stay in the room it's under the blanket.
The rooms have nice view and clean. The location is great. The stuff is very welcoming and caring.

United StatesNot the fault of Utasawa, but poor communication from our PeruHop ferry--be sure to get off at Yumani port, not any other, or you will have to carry your bags the whole way up like we did!
Amazing view! So clean! Responsive staff-a heater was in our room on arrival as requested, they let us know ahead of time we would need to pay in cash and that they accept USD, they gave us a late checkout without a fee. Delicious breakfast! Very small fee for a donkey to carry our bags back to the port.
