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.).

SwitzerlandThe room was very cold at night.
The location was amazing and the room (3rd floor) was really nice too with much better ventilation than on the ground floor.

Location, friendly staff, beds are comfortable. They also guarded my bag for two days (free of charge) when I went to Machu Picchu. Plus the patio is great for having a beer and a smoke.

SpainThe room deco was a bit too eclectic for my taste.
The room was quite big with a sitting area and kitchen, also a nice balcony overseeing Cusco. The bathroom was nice and had everything you needed. The breakfast was also very good, and you can do many activities in the patio!

BrazilIs too close to downtown, so at night doesn't seem too safe.
Loved the facilities, but the location is not that great. It is really close to everything, but a little bit far from the Plaza when you walk at night. Didn't feel too much safe, but it was a great experience anyways. The rooms are super big and I loved it. The breakfast is AMAZING, totally unexpectted. I loved it, felt I was in a hotel.

Switzerland- no curtains for the beds - the second time I stayed, my reservation didn't work - only some beds have a small personal light+shelf to put your phone, the beds without are less convenient
-very quiet at night (it's Cuzco, so of course some people will wake up at 4am for a trek, but aside from that, a very welcomed silence) -inner courtyard to relax -several rooms dedicated to various activities (movies, games, etc.) - confortable beds - lockers (medium sized backpacks) - restaurant/bar - paintings and sofas

SwitzerlandThe bed seem to have proper matresses but when you are a side-sleeper it's just painful. I was sick during my stay and tried to sleep alot, but in the end I just hurt my back trying to sleep. I do not quite get where the "boutique" part comes from in the Hostel Name.
The Patio is amazingly beautiful. You will be surrounded by blooming Jasmin scent, and can enjoy the sun in a calm environment. The Hostel has a Restaurant and a Gym (I didn't use) but it looked okay. I was staying in the 4 bed dorm which had it's own bathroom incl shower.

PeruThe stairs, our room was on the third level but it was manageable. Also, the room was cold, we slept well with the extra blanket, but maybe a little heater would be very helpful.
We loved the staff, super helpful and kind! Joyce at the reception was amazing helping us when we just arrived all the way til the end when she ordered a cab for us to go to the airport. The food was great! And the provided a breakfast bag for the days we had to leave early. The place was clean, we asked for an extra blanket and the staff provided one. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to go back there in our next trip to Cuzco!
