How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewBeautiful wooden bungalows. Each one is a unique work of art. You can feel the love that the creators of this place put into it. Beautiful surroundings, just next to waterfalls. The small garden around the bungalows was also a treat. The bromeliads make you feel as if you are inside the cloud forest.

Verified reviewThe host, Oliver, was so nice and helpful. He arranged a car to take us to the volcanos (an excellent guide named Wilson) and with transportation to Cuenca. The food was SO good - a huge breakfast spread! And the hotel itself is beyond charming (with such a great story behind it - ask Oliver!). The adorable dogs were an added bonus.
It was a little cold in the rooms - so bring warm pajamas.

Verified reviewAmazing location! You can see a waterfall from the property and the surrounding mountains are stunning. Many birds around. Lovely dogs and the cat tiggy. Oliver prepared a delicious dinner for us. The room was super comfortable and we missed nothing! I have not seen any better place around Baños!
For me personally the bed cushion was bit hard. No big deal.
Thank your for your review. We value your feedback and appreciation. Hope to be able to host you again some day!

Verified reviewThis guest house exceeded our group's expectations. It was a beautiful property with some super-friendly cats and dogs walking around. The host, while I do not recall his name, was very accommodating and made us very eager to come back sometime in the future. The rooms are very beautiful, dark at night, and quite. We had a lot of traveling beforehand, and I had some of the best sleep of my life sleeping to the waterfall nearby.

The design of the building is beautiful. However, some details are not practical.

Verified reviewThe property was absolutely stunning and the views were grander than I anticipated. However, the friendly service and warm welcome added to our stay. The dinner we had was wonderful and breakfast each day was fantastic. It honestly felt like we were welcomed guests in someone's home. We almost stayed at a more "luxury" accommodation, but I can't imagine anywhere else coming close to the comfort and service we had. This was truly one of the most amazing properties we have ever stayed at! P.S. The photos do not do it justice!
I honestly can't think of anything.

Verified reviewThe cleanness, the receptionist was really kind and the big room
There was a window in our room without curtains so when people pass through that place they can see inside the room so we didn’t have privacy. It
