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.).

CanadaWe chose this location because it had air conditioning. However, not sure the portable unit made much of a difference and the location was far from the main town area (shops and restaurants) though was still within walking distance.
Staff were friendly

FranceThe staff wasn’t really helpful about the activities to do in Paracas (no map of the Reserve, no information about where we can rent a scooter or bike, etc.). They gave us wrong information about the buses to go to Ica/Lima from Paracas, hopefully we verified the info by ourself and find the right ones. They didn’t want us to stay at the swimming pool while waiting for our bus and had no explanation why. Early check-in (12pm) was not possible (in Peru, in most of the places you can have one easily)
Nice place to stay, close to the main road

United StatesNo complaints!
I loved LA Ruta! It was perfect for me. It was quiet, comfortable, and clean. Paracas is a small town. I appreciated being away from the party hostels. The kitchen facilities were perfect and clean. The pool was an added bonus to cool off on hot days. The bed was comfortable. The shower was not always hot, but it is the middle of the desert, so a luke warm shower was nice. The staff asked me every day if my room needed cleaning. They also found out I was working and offered me an extra table and chair for my room!

United StatesNo air conditioning, just a fan - staying in your room during the day when it was hot was a bit uncomfortable and fan is loud. I didn’t see any other guests while I was there so it didn’t seem like a place to socialize. Breakfast was not included.
The staff was really friendly. They didn’t speak much English but I know some Spanish so I was able to get by. The room and bathroom were very clean. The area was safe and only a few blocks away from the main road.

United KingdomIt said breakfast included in the description but this is not the case. Felt a teeny bit cheated there!
The family working the hostal are so lovely and really helpful. kitchen facilities were good. Nice area to sit by the pool and relax. It is a good spot for families although we enjoyed it as a couple (probably a bit quiet and not social for the solo traveller).

GermanyIf possible, however, I suggest you try to get a room in the corridor in the back. Our room was at the common area/kitchen directly where it gets noisy and busy in the morning (other guests preparing their breakfast and talking to each other). Hence, sleeping in was somewhat of a challenge.
Basic but neat and well-run accommodation. The hosts are super friendly and most helpful with any questions. Rooms are also basic but clean, bathrooms are (relatively) spacious and clean. Reliable hot showers which is nice. The common areas and kitchen are modern and well-equipped. Located at the edge of Paracas it’s only a short walk to either the waterfront and, thus, the centre with all its bars and restaurants and the bus station (Cruz del Sur). Would stay again and absolutely recommend the place.

United StatesNeed to solve the draining of the air conditioner. Otherwise this portable unit fills up it's internal tank and turns off in the middle of the night. Ask them to drain it in the evening or ask for a bucket to have it draining into it.

GermanyUnfortunately the bed was a bit small for two persons and especially the blanket we had to share. The location near the road is ok during the night but from 5am on the traffic gets heavier which ypu can hear quite loud then. There was no table or chair in the room, but of course you can just have a seat in the reception area. Take care and walk neat the street when you do not walk in the direction of the sea because the dogs in the neighborhood might bite you. But all in all with regard to the price that are of course minor issues.
The host were very friendly and answered every question immediately - they booked a tour to the Islas Ballestas and a buggy tour to the national reserve- both really amazing and fun! The rooms were simple but nice and clean. The bathroom was quite big with a big shower and warm water. The outdoor reception room was very nice and there is a well equipped kitchen everybody can use and free water dispenser. There is a nice little swimming pool and the WiFi was really good. The center of Paracas can be reached within a 7min walk.
