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.).

GermanyThe location is maybe not entirely ideal as it is a bit far from the Center but close to the airport and by no means it’s a bad location!
The Tatacoa tour was incredible! Very knowledgeable guide, beautiful spots and stops beyond the red and white desert. Extremely good value for money as it lasted the entire day including lunch and we were then dropped off in Villavieja for our second night. Also the staff in general was super friendly and helpful.

Very friendly owner and professional staff. Everything was kept clean and there were a lot of space to relax. There was air conditioning in the dorm room which was a huge plus for hot Neiva. The pricing was also amazing. The best value hostel in all of Colombia!

AustraliaThe tour takes you through the red desert at mid day. I feel this can be done earlier in the day and I appreciate it’s a dessert and it’s always going to be hot but the midday sun is always the hottest. Outside of that the tour was fabulous and everyone honestly went out of their way to help Me.
The people were friendly and accomodating. I arrived in the night they made me feel it would be safe. They helped me get a bus ticket wile I was on the tour and supported getting food delivered and a taxi when I needed to leave late inc late check in. That was very kind.

ItalyThe location is little out of the way from the bus terminal, and there are no buses in the city so you need to take a taxi ($10,000-12,000). There are no lights positioned in the beds, so it is quite difficult to tidy things up at night if there are people sleeping in the room.
This hostel is well known by locals in the area. Just tell the taxi driver its name and he will take you there. I only used the hostel to spend one night, but the desert tour service it seems well organized and interesting in terms of quality/price ratio. The hostel is very welcoming. The beds have numerous outlets nearby.

CanadaOur first night, we had the Supreme Private, and it was great with the ensuite bathroom and large bed and aircon . Our 2nd night after we decided to extend we had a double room with 2 single beds it would have been perfect only the toilet was literally next door, so could hear it being used constantly through out the night and early morning showers with disturbed Our sleep so that was a bit disappointing. Great location for going to the Tatacoa Desert. We booked the tour through the hostel . It was a very good tour and would highly recommend! Staff are super nice and helpful . Good kitchen and common area.
