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.).

ColombiaThe bed was not really comfy and there was only one blanket. The bathroom smells.
The environment in the hostel is great, everything looks good, there are multiple working areas, a "cinema" room and games too. The staff is very kind.

CanadaI love this hostel! It is abundantly clear that the staff love it too. It's clean, there are so many common areas and they are all awesome. Places to work. A movie room. Best of all, there is HOT water in the shower!! Oh and they run their own tours, and the one I took was phenomenal!

NetherlandsThe hotel is in an old house, which means it is a little noisy. But nothing too loud.
Centrally located, busy area. Nice and helpful staff. Everything was clean and the hotel and rooms have a nice atmosphere. They have multiple common areas and even remote working spaces!

United KingdomManizales is a very strange city as the centre is rather dull. The hostel is very central, which seems great but actually is very limiting for restaurants and bars, you have to get a taxi to the Zona Rosa for the fun
Really friendly staff that made me a tasty breakfast, helped me book tours and had good recommendations for the town. Nice rooms for watching movies and reading. Nice rooftop to have a drink on.

United StatesThe neighborhood is very lonely at night, so it makes it seem less safe. Unsure if that is perception or reality. The key we received to the building was broken so we were lingering on the street at night longer than we would have liked. The bathrooms are private, but the walls do not go all the way to the top, so you can tell if your neighbor is talking/has their light on. Little things, but other than that the hostel was great. It seemed a bit overpriced, as I stayed in other luxury hotels for a similar price to what I paid here, but it was a comfortable stay.
The hostel building was an old, authentic, beautiful building with the basic comforts you would expect of a hostel. I liked the games, TV room, the architecture, the free coffee, and the staff was very nice. The room was basic, but very comfortable, equipped with outlets, soap, etc.

United StatesSuperb value. Only improvement would be the signage outside. The front is easy to miss when you first arrive. There’s someone selling shoes in the front but then you walk up two floors and you’re comfortably inside the hostel.
Super comfortable place to relax. I extended my stay by several days. My private room with private bathroom was perfect for working remote. They brought a table/chair inside so I could work. WiFi was reliable. Good hot shower. Excellent location. Staff is incredibly friendly. Free hot coffee and tea available. Ample community spaces to relax, including a wonderful movie room where you can watch Netflix or Disney+. They even have a video game area and a public area with co-working desks. Breakfast is good but dinner was even better. If they offer dinner option, say yes because the cost is fair and the quality of the food is excellent. The rooftop terrace is nice too but the inside of the hostel is so comfortable that we hardly went to the rooftop.

United KingdomBreakfast was delicious. They have a really good cook. Location perfect, 2 minutes from the centre. They organise tours and activities for good prices, ie coffee farm tours. The hotel has a beautiful design, very cool. Evening meals are delicious and good price. There is a playstation, a tv lounge area, and even a cinema room. Here on a big screen you can watch anything on Netflix, you don't even need an account. I was having a few covid related problems, booking a test, re-sceduling a flight. The amount of help they gave me was much more than could have been expected. Lovely hotel, great people, great experience. Very good value for money, highly, highly recommended. Manizales is very nice too.

ItalyWhen we booked a room with "private bathroom" we expected the bathroom to open off the room. Instead, we had to go down the corridor to a space with adjoining washbasins for 2 rooms and "our" shower/toilet just behind. That's not what I call a private bathroom. The rooms all faced onto an inner courtyard, which could be noisy.
It was in a very convenient location in the centre of town.

United StatesWe had a private room. The beds are horrible. Super hard. Might as well sleep on the ground. It’s also very loud. The rooms don’t seal so you can hear everything. The bathrooms of adjoining rooms are connected so you can hear all the stuff your neighbor does in the bathroom
Super clean. Good location. Breakfast is delicious.

IsraelWe cooked in the evening pasta. One day after we checked out and leave our luggage in the hostel. When we returned at night we really hurry to get our bus and the owner of the hostel used it to take from us 10000 pesos just because we used 3 tomatoes from the kitchen the day before. We didn't have time to argue with him and payed him. But this behavior is not acceptable. The things in the kitchen that don't have name on it is for everyone. That is in every hostel I was in. And also 3 tomatoes don't cost 10000 pesos even in my country that is count expensive. This hostel owner is a thief and I suggest you not going there
