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 reviewThe people staying there were friendly. The beaches nearby were nice and there's a good hike (both only if you have a car). The bed was fairly comfy. It was quiet.
Honestly, I would not recommend if you don't have a car. I was very lucky that a couple of people staying at the hostel gave me a ride to the airport/beach, but otherwise I'd have been stuck. If you look at the map and think, no worries I'll walk, I also thought this but there is no pavement/sidewalk and it's quite dangerous. I just about managed to walk into la Trinité, but it's on a main road with lots of blind corners. Walking to Tartane isn't possible, it would be far too dangerous. The host wasn't there the whole time of my stay; there were a couple of people from WorkAway who greeted me. The kitchen isn't well equipped (there only seemed to be two bowls?) and what's there mostly seems outdated/very well used. It would be good to have mosquito nets at the windows - you absolutely need the windows open to sleep in the heat but it lets in all the bugs, everyone was getting bitten a lot. There are no keys - everything is just left open. I didn't feel unsafe at all, though I wasn't 100% happy that in theory anyone could walk in and take my belongings. The water pressure in the bathroom isn't great - you have to leave it running for a few minutes to heat up before using the shower.
Good morning Thank you for your comment. We are happy to know that you enjoyed your stay. There are buses every hour towards Tartane and towards Trinité. We will be happy to inform you about this during your next stay. We regularly readjust the assortment of tableware according to needs. We will take your comment into account and thank you. Screens on the windows would obstruct the view. We chose to leave the sea view unobstructed. Being located high up, mosquitoes are rather rare, however we can recommend many alternative solutions. It is true that you can sometimes see fireflies and admire their magical spectacle. However, if you wish to close the windows, for better ventilation, we recommend activating individual fans. Finally, to keep your belongings safe, lockers are at your disposal. You can put your own lock on it. Looking forward to welcoming you again.

The smell and the condition of the place
Thank you for your comment. We are sorry for the smell of paint. The accommodation was repainted few days before your stay that is the reason. We wish you good day and hope to see you again. 🌈

Room smelled of mould. I had to sleep in the sofa in the living room. The washing machine is listed between the included facilities, while in reality, it is an extra service payable only in cash.

Verified reviewI really enjoyed my private room at the hostel, the room was a lot bigger than what I expected. The people at the hostel were super nice. Driving and parking on the steep hill with a rental car was slightly stressful but the view from the top is worth it.
