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.).

AustraliaAt night, being up in the mountains, climate being the way it is, attracted a lot of bugs & insects, which managed to find their way into the room, even with the doors closed.
Value for money was excellent, host communicated very well (English), wifi worked well. All facilities were great. Be warned, the accommodation is a 30 minute walk, all up hill, from the centre of Minca & a lot of the direction of hikes.

This is a great hotel. Very nice rooms with balconies and comfortable beds. The staff is friendly and helpful. Its not breakfast here but easy to get breakfast at the place right next door if you dont want to go down to central Minca. I would love to stay here again!

United KingdomThe kitchen was poorly equipped. We couldn't find two bowls for breakfast. We had to use two glasses. No sharp knives etc. The room just needed some love. The shelves were falling down, the shower door didn't fit or close which meant the water went all over the bathroom. Cobwebs in the corners of the room. The 'hot' water barely made it past not ice cold. These are all small things that could be easily fixed that didn't affect our stay.
The location was great. Out of the town so it was quiet but walkable. A lovely balcony outside our room with a view over the mountains. Nice roof terrace. Nice to have access to the kitchen. The bed was really comfortable.

United KingdomThere’s no motos after dark so if you want to go into town for dinner you have to walk down the hill, about 15 mins, you’ll need a torch for some of it!

GermanyLocation: you need a Mototaxi ride from Minca for 5.000 COP. At best you grab the WhatsApp number from the Mototaxi office in Minca to organize your rides. No refill option for bottled water - we had to go through so many plastic bottles because of that. It would be a great improvement for the environment.
There is a wonderful restaurant Ijka in 5 minute walking distance where we went a few times. Nice view from the terrace.

GermanyThe view wasn’t the best for Minca and the shelves didn’t look like they would really hold anything. The kitchen had a weird smell and everything was dirty and full of dead moths (underneath and inbetween glasses in the cupboard)
The bed was amazing, the room was clean, best shower we had so far and with the fan the climate of the room was good. The rooftop was cozy.

SwitzerlandThe only option for having breakfast, lunch or dinner within a walking distance seems to be a nearby boutique hostel where the food is only average. There was some mold on the ceiling of the bathroom.

CanadaThere is no restaurant at the hotel directly so you need to walk to the village which is not too far, but need to climb the hill to return to the hotel.
Kevin at the front desk was very helpful. The shared kitchen is very convenient. Rooms are super clean and very comfortable. You can walk to Pozo Azul. Amazing room with balcony, you feel in the middle of the jungle. Loved my stay, I wish I could have stayed longer!
