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.).

JapanTheir neighbours were quite noisy, bordering on antisocial Their (the neighbour's) dogs attacked cars which I have never seen in my life, might be a plus as the first 3 times were entertaining 😅 Honestly for the price category this place would be perfect without the neighbours, that being said once you closed the doors to the balcony they had little impact on your stay.
Great little place, spacious balcony and comfy beds were big plusses. Cheap and cheerful but with a great location (150m ISH to the beach) Short walk to all the key attractions Nice decor and cool despite hot weather outside. Staff were lovely and took good care of us at check in and brekky, would thoroughly recommend.

CanadaThe room was missing a shower curtain which isn’t a big deal in a big bathroom. On a quiet back street, the road is not paved but your little luggage wheels should be able to make the journey from the main road.
Very clean and well maintained. It seems like a nice family business and a quiet place off the main street. The room had a fan and a big shower. The bed was comfortable and it was quiet overnight.

United StatesKeep in mind: if you have a balcony room, it will be loud into the night (music, kids playing, etc). This didn't bother me, but it might keep some people awake. There's also very little air movement in the rooms, so they get stuffy. They do provide a little fan, but it's not that powerful. I still sleepy fine, but on a hot night this might be uncomfortable.
Excellent value for the price. Basic, but clean and decently comfortable. Breakfast of fruit, bread, and scrambled eggs is a very nice touch.

United KingdomThe is a roof that you can get up to but is currently being used as storage etc, this could be a real asset to the hotel if they used it as a roof terrace.
The hotel was great. It's set two streets behind the main area/street in Paracas which is a good thing as it's very quiet and you avoid having to deal with excessive approaches for tours. From the bus station I'd recommend taking a taxi which would be 15/20 soles max. It is walkable but you'd be very sweaty/out of breath on arrival with large bags. The owners/staff are really nice, they speak very little English but that's negated with google translate. They will go above and beyond to help you and can organise a tour of the islands from the hotel, which saves a lot of hassle. The hotel itself is extremely clean and tidy and this is the same for they rooms, which are also nice for a budget price. Breakfast is good too.

PolandThe room was quite small and I wish there was a bit more room to put our clothes in. Also we got the room without a window although not a lot of them were taken.
Common space made a nice atmosphere, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Localization is ok, close to the main boulvard. The man who made us breakfast was really nice. I generally recommend but rather for short stay.

Hotel was in good location. Staff was great, once of the woman working there did earlier breakfast for us, as we needed to go early and she didn't want us to go without out breakfast.

IrelandI wasn't aware of the tax that would be added on at the time of payment. It wasn't too much anyway but I just would have liked to know about it. There wasn't a wardrobe or space for clothes. That was fine for us as we were only staying 2 nights but worth mentioning.
The location was great - not too close to the main square that it would be noisy at night but close enough to get there in 5 minutes walking and head back to the Hostal if you forgot something. Breakfast was simple but nice - some bread with butter and jam, delicious orange juice and your choice of coffee, tea or chamomile. The shower was lovely and the beds were comfortable. All the staff we talked to were so nice.

Clean and cozy room with balcony. Smiling staff. Everything is near: beach, restaurants, small local shop literally next door, bus station. Not on main road position, but still very central.

United KingdomIt's not the hostals fault, but there is a huge amount of noise outside from a local bar or restaurant until very late hours of the morning. The walls are also very thin, so if someone is talking in the corridor, they will hear. Breakfast was like a Bolivian meal - bread with jam, a little plain but did the job. We had a lot of mould in our bathroom.
The room was otherwise very clean and the staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. A great spot before doing your boat tour, if you're after a quick, cheap fix. A few parking spaces outside perfect for a car or camper.
