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.).

As soon as I arrived, Fabricio (the owner) greeted me calling me by my name..because he knew I was arriving. Few minutes after he offered me a better room, for no change of rate. In the following days he helped me with several things, also for unexpected issues I had. The accommodation itself is in a beautiful location, rooms are very nice and rates extremely competitive. I couldn't ask for more

United StatesInternet can be a bit slow at times. The street noise might be a bit much for sensitive travellers.
The owner was us educated, very kind. Well equipped kitchen, stunning view. Large common space. Can't beat the price. It's also a common choice for cyclists and bikers.

United StatesWhile the showers are working, it was difficult to produce hot water at times. The water did warm up, but I got the warmer water at lower power. As for the location: the location is far enough from the town to have silence at night; but, you may feel a bit of a walk. The distance is good enough not to be a burden but far enough to be mindful.
I liked the personnel in the location: their correspondence helped ensure I got to the location the fastest and safest. They also have people who can communicate in English. There is a kitchen area and they even offer avocados and a community pantry for everyone (when available). I felt my belongings were 100% safe in the hostel and entry at night was prompt. They also offer towels for rent too. And finally, the accommodation is phenomenal.

United KingdomNothing. Everything was amazing!
Everything was amazing! The most friendly welcome from Fabricio after a long journey which was so pleasant. The views from the hostel are amazing, you can just sit for hours looking at the view. Rooms were super clean, as were the toilets, showers and kitchen! The kitchen was brilliant, had everything you needed and more! On one of the nights Fabrico had his family round having a bbq, he welcomed us to join and it was such a good night getting to know Fabricio and his family. He even let us on to his favourite drink which went down too well! Thank you for a fantastic time, it was just perfect!

DenmarkThe only very small minus was the location, which was a bit far away from the city (around 20min walk)
The owner, Fabricio, was very helpful and accommodating. Furthermore, the common area outside was really nice, well-equipped and clean kitchen, very hot showers (best shower I’ve had in a hostel) and lastly located in a tranquil area of Baños, with a really great view.

NorwayIt's right next to a busy road, so you might wake up from traffic noises if you're a light sleeper.

United KingdomNo complaints!
This may appear to not be in the centre but its super close, a 5 min walk and a dollar 50 in cabs if you can't be bothered but it is much preferable to locations in town because of the beautiful views and gorgeous garden. Not to mention the atmosphere, it's friendly, homely and super safe. Fabrizio is the host with the most and I loved my time here meeting some amazing people. The place to stay in Baños !

He also made sure our stay in Baños was memorable by providing us with Ecuadorian treats and a campfire! The place is basic but has everything you need, including a hot shower and really good WiFi, and is also very clean.
