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.).

IndiaThe most comfy room in San Cristobal. Nice lighting, comfy bed, cute cat, its warm & a nice breakfast in the mornings. There's a nice little outdoor space to sit & enjoy. It's close to Parque Encuentro yet just 25/30 mins walking to the center.

GermanyIt always took some time to explain to the taxi drivers where the location of the hostal is. The fastest route from the city centre includes a dirt road part - which some drivers don't want to drive.
-very cozy room and house, comfortable bed -clean utilities -fully equipped kitchen with dining area -laid back atmosphere and beautiful nature around you -very near to the Encuentro park -last, but not least- very friendly host, who took good care of us

I really enjoyed staying here and would definitely stay again. It is a small hostel so it felt like home. Fernando is super helpful and a beautiful soul. The breakfasts were AMAZING!!! The wifi worked super well (starlink). I also liked the location as it was near a gorgeous nature reserve. It is about a 40 min walk into town but there are collectivo’s you can take or Fernando will give you a lift if he is heading that way.

Czech RepublicClean and comfortable. As a solo woman I felt very save. Also when I was outside, I new that I can call Fernando (the host) and he would keep an eye on me. Walking distance to the center (20 minutes walk through lovely neighborhood). To return even at the evening I did with collectivo (=local bus for 8 pesos). Lovely nature park just 2 minutes from the hostel.

And it was great being around so much nature, just a couple kms away from the city centre. Fernando is an incredible host! And the cat and dogs will give you a warm welcome as well for sure. :)

SloveniaEverything about this stay was amazing -- its quiet location in the forest just outside of the town's centre, near the eco-park El Encuentro, the house that has all the perks and comforts of a home, and above all Fernando's lovely attention to detail and his legendary breakfasts that have already become one of the signatures of this place. This has been by far the best stay in Mexico.

We stayed for 5 nights and it felt like home. It’s a quiet place just outside the center. There is only place for six guests. Fernando (the owner) is very helpfull and we had a great time staying at his place. The breakfast every morning was amazing! Every day he made something else. I think he should start his own restaurant!

ItalyNada, everything was perfect!
Amazing! The house is beautiful, cozy, clean and very well equipped with everything you may need, including hot water and kitchen. The beds are comfortable and warm, you feel like home. So much peace and quite in the nature, but still to reach the city center is so easy (~20 mins walking or short ride in colectivo, and the host, Fernando, was so nice to offer me a free pick up on my arrival at the terminal bus). Fernando is super kind, sociable and caring about every need you may have, and he prepares delicious breakfast! I had the best time here and would have extended my stay as much as possible but unfortunately the place was fully booked for the next days!

IndiaIt's a beautiful place in nature that gives you a completely different vibe although you're still rather near to San Cristobal. The owners of the place were super friendly, flexibel and helpful. They came to pick me up and dropped me off super early in the morning and waited there with me until I had left with the shuttle. Truly amazing. In general they really take the time to make your stay pleasant. Im also wishing them all the best with their cool future plans for this unique property.

GermanyMarie and Fernando were lovely hosts. They did everything to make me feel welcome and comfortable. The vegan breakfast they prepared for me was very tasty. I liked the interior of the room and especially the bed was very comfortable. I didn't use the kitchen, but it looked pretty well equipped. Bruce the cat was a lovely company for me :-) The area is nice, green and quiet. Perfect for hiking as the park and hiking trails are close by. I can highly recommend that place.
