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.).

United StatesOne of the best guest house I have ever stayed in! Rooms were really comfortable and clean. I love the charging ports for every bed and a small laps. Great kitchen, parking inside ( great if you travel with motorbike) laundry service and breakfast for affordable prices. The owner is super nice and extremely helpful. He gave me great recommendations what to see and eat around and how to get to Santa Ana Volcano. He also made sure my stay was comfortable and I have everything what I need. I recommend this place to everyone and I would love to stay there again.

SwitzerlandFamily owned hostel that feels so comfortable. I only came here one night after staying in another hostel in Santa Ana but I wish I would have stayed there longer. Very very kind family, so helpful. I met the wife at a little market on my way home and I was looking for yoghurt that they didn’t have, when we got back to the hostel, she gently gave me one of them. Pure kindness, highly recommended!

AustraliaThe room was pretty small and very hot there was just 1 fan but it was low so if you have a top bunk which I did it didn’t reach you and it was extremely hot in the night so we had to leave the doors open to let some air in. I did get bitten by bugs during the night I think because the doors were open and needed to be open. The place was nice though would have been better with a bottom bunk to cool down.
Great location close to the city centre just a few mins walk to the main square. Was nice little spot in the city. The owner lui was lovely and his wife checked me in but she only spoke Spanish so google translate was handy. They are a really nice couple. I would recommend staying here

AustraliaWe loved our stay at the casa vieja. Luis and his family are so kind, Luis is there to help you with everything, such as booking tours, arranging shuttles and we could even rent his motorbike/car. The guesthouse has a very nice atmosphere, we felt immediately at home. I would definitely come back and can highly recommend it.

United KingdomNothing, it was all great
First and foremost Luis the owner, and his family, made this an exceptional stay. Friendly and so helpful with so much information about where to go and what to do. He took us gor a day out in the Ruta de Flores which was an absolute highlight of our trip. A very kind and good man. The hostel itself was well situated between the centre and the best Pupusa place going. Our double bed was big and extremely confortable. The room was well thought pur with sockets by the bed and plenty of storage and hanging space. The private bathroom was as you would expect for a hostel and perfectly adequate and very clean. I highly recommend the breakfasts they offer. Different each day and cooked on demand. Very tasty indeed. Once again, I can not recommend this place highly enough

United KingdomA perfect place to explore Santa Ana with very welcoming hosts. Great recommendations on how to spend your time there and where to eat. Great location, only a short walk to the main square where you'll find restaurants, supermarkets and plenty of market stalls. Clean, basic rooms and a small well equipped kitchen. Great communal space. Thank you Luis and family. It's been lovely getting to know you all. We will return!

United StatesLocation was fabulous! So close to main city square, but far enough that didn’t hear the free concert that was also there. Luis the host was excellent. Unfortunately I got food poisoning during one of my outings, but Luis was great trying to get me back on my feet again. He checked on me and suggested restaurants which might do me some good. Luis also helped arrange transportation with a company to visit Santa Ana volcano and Lago de Coatepeque, which was worth the cost.

United KingdomGreat hostel! We had a very comfy bed, our room was spacious and had a ceiling fan and private bathroom. Very well equipped kitchen and nice communal space. The host was so so helpful with information in English and Spanish and the family are very friendly! We had an excellent four night stay, fairly central location, only a 5/10 minute walk to the main plaza, and a 30 minute walk to the main bus terminal by the market (Terminal Fransisco Lara Pineda). You can easily get to la Ruta de las flores from here, as well as Juayua, Joya de Ceren, and Tazumal.

HungaryAbsolutely loved this guesthouse. Perfect location, easy walk from main square, but still quiet. I slept very well. Although sometimes you can hear noises from next room, everybody is respectful here, no loud parties or conversations. Luis is a wonderful host, he helped me with lots of advises and arranged a number of transfers. Great breakfast as well.

New ZealandIn the room with 6 people there are only 4 old lockers - let's say it is unfortunate. Atm there is only 1 shower incl. Toilet for everyone which leads to some traffic at rush hour.
Truly family run business - you live in the same complex. Luis is a very nice guy, who can help you with everything. We booked a Scooter from him, he even organised another one to satisfy everyone. The atmosphere is chill, I bet you can have some good conversations in the front place with the right people.
