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.).

BrazilNothing in particular
I stayed in a single room and it was comfortable and clean. The shared bathrooms and showers were good, always clean and also they provided good pack of snack to go, for the days you need to leave early for the tours. Staff was nice, location near the main place where all the tours ended. Very good option to stay in San Pedro!

United StatesThe only downside is people coming/going @ all times of day/night for excursions- & the associated doorbell/rummaging in the room. But that’s less about the hostel & more about people’s self-awareness.
Price, information & assistance from the front desk. Andres was very attentive & the whole staff would help as best they could.

United KingdomCampo Base is the kind of hostel that understands their market and really does a good job at providing guests with the comforts and information you need to make the most of your stay in San Pedro. Rodrigo helped us organise tours - incl. the trip across to Uyuni - and everything went to plan, because he knows exactly which agencies will do a good job. Go to Campo Base and you'll in very good hands. And the hostel is great too :)

CanadaFor those who need more space to work, a fitness room, or a hostel bar, this might not be the best fit for you.
Rodrigo makes this a home away from home for you. Helping plan itineraries, booking transports, and all the small things you forgot you needed on the trip. He always responded quickly when I had a question or issue, showing he really cares that you have the best time in San Pedro.

United StatesThe distance between the upper bunk bed and the ceiling is too low making it difficult to sit on the bed. I bumped my head to the ceiling multiple times. Privacy curtains would have been a nice addition.
Electric sockets near the bed. Good breakfast. They give it to go if you have to catch an early tour. Clean. Well organized. Free tea in the kitchen.

IrelandIt would have been nice to have an option of a female dorm. Also, given that Atacama is predominantly a hiking destination, it would have been nice if people were leaving their hike boots outside dorms. 🫣
Really nice place to stay. Staff was really helpful. Clean and comfortable beds and easy to arrange tours.

United StatesThe hostal was clean and cozy, but wasn’t fancy. This was perfect for our budget friendly stay!
The host, Rodrigo, makes this place special! After booking, he will reach out with all the information you need for your stay in San Pedro which makes the trip planning process hassle free. He can book all of your tours and even airport transport with the best companies in town. When a flight delay changed our arrival time, he even helped rebook our tours to still allow us to go on all the ones we wanted to. The Hostal is an everything you need, though not fancy, it is clean, comfortable, and within walking distance of the town center (this is important- most tours drop off here!)
