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.).

PolandKatty is a very friendly host! I totally recommend you staying in Sacred Valley and Chaska Wasi. The moment you step out of the house, you can see old Inca ruins, wow! Be aware that Katty loves animals (dogs and cats), and they are in the house too ;)

FranceBeautiful little hostel, very well located in the heart of Ollantaytambo, close to the mercado and the Plaza de Arma. Katy the host was away when I visited in January, and Ruth, the lady who replaced her was fantastic: we had ver good conversations together, she knows the region and its attractions very well and seem always more than happy to help. The shared lounge is also comfy and ideal for socializing with other travelers.

United KingdomBeing off the main square meant water was intermittent and we only had proper hot water on one evening of our stay but it was explained that this is likely to be the case for most hotels not on the square. The property did laundry for us but unfortunately it all came back crumpled and creased and a number of items came back with marks or fluff on them so will have to be relaundered.
We stayed for 3 nights and Katy, the host, was really friendly and helped us with all the questions we had and even brought us tea when we mentioned we were a little ill. The location is just off the main square but the area had a local feel and was quiet at night. The room had a great view of the mountains.

United StatesThe town had a power outage that lasted a few hrs. This is obviously out of the hostel’s control but do be aware this may occur. We were told it rarely happens but do consider being prepared with an extra battery. Kathy provided battery powered lights which was perfect for us.
Kathy, the host, is a literal Angel. She has the sweetest animals that made our stay feel like home; a dog & cat. The downstairs has a cozy area to hang out with couches & our private room was very clean with a very comfortable bed, abundant natural light & a magical view of the Apús & ruins. Hot water was plentiful once you figured out how to use the shower (just ask). we stayed for 5 nights & felt right at home. The location is perfect & convenient to the square, ruins, market & hiking; everything within walking distance. The train station is a 5 min taxi away. My partner had gotten sick at one point & Kathy helped me run around the market collecting things to make a soup with. She knows all the locals & knew exactly where to go & how much to pay. She even made the soup herself along with a medicinal tea to help. She’s an absolute Angel of a woman & really enjoys helping others. She speaks both Spanish & English which was also a help! Thanks for everything, Kathy!

United StatesThe owner Katie was very nice and I had several interesting conversations with her. She arranged a home stay in the communidad of Huilloq for us for a good price which was one of the best experiences of our whole trip. We stayed at Chaska Wasi several nights. Our room was nice, warm and sunny, with a great view. There is a nice lobby with comfortable sofas to hang out in and converse with people or read. There was plenty of hot water for showers if you follow instructions on when to use it. The guest house is located close to the main plaza, but also on the edge of town at a big field where there are pre-Inca walls. This gave the location a relaxed country feel to it.

CanadaThe host did need to be home and awake in order to let us into the hostal, which worked fine for our situation (traveling with a child), but it may have been more inconvenient if we had wanted to stay out later than 10pm and not wake her up to let us in. (Polite Canadians here - inconveniencing people is hard for us!) All in all it was a fantastic stay and we are very happy to have stayed there and met Katty. Lovely human being.
The Hostal was beautiful and clean, and well decorated inside. Katty went above and beyond to make sure we were able to sightsee safely and reasonably, and even offered to do our laundry when the laundry services were closed. The most helpful host we have ever had! The location was also amazing, being able to walk easily to all the shops, restaurants, transit, archeological site, and the views from the room were amazing!

GermanyBathroom door is open to the dorm on the upper part and only has a milky glass window in the middle part, so there is not overly much privacy, it didn't lock either and creaked terribly, so if using the bathroom you wake up the other people in the room. But as I had the room to myself 2 out of 3 nights it didn't matter much!
-very friendly and open owner, she had lots of recommendations and was always there to help -I loved the sweet dogs and cats, that were always open for a cuddle -good location -comfy common area

The owner was so friendly and helpful, and when I left a bag there she sorted a taxi to bring it to Cuzco for me. We had lovely interesting conversations with her. The view was great from our room.
