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 reviewSilvia is a lovely host. Very helpful. Good English. See actual hummingbirds fly in to get a drink of water. The bed in the dormitory was very comfortable. Locker available. Kitchen was fairly functional having everything you need there. Good security for the whole premises. A big space to park cars and motorcycles. Good supermarket a few blocks walk.
Kitchen and communal seating areas are outdoors (under a roof area) and exposed to elements of hot, cold, wind, rain.
Thank you Roy ! Safe travels

Verified reviewReally decent value private room near to a chilled mall with good coffee/food options! Silvia is a great host, really helpful and responsive to questions and everything. Great advice about the boat rather than the bus! You can walk to the lake from here and take a short taxi to the Monday Falls and Tres Fronteras (boat to Argentina)

Verified reviewSuper friendly and accommodating, I booked a private room as it was such good value and it was spacious with good ac and a fan, had a kettle and fridge in the room too which was nice. Everything was clean, kitchen was sufficient for cooking and nice outdoor area to chill. It's a little far from downtown and the bus terminal however the area felt safe and it's easy to get to the dam. Also Ubers are super cheap so easy enough to get around.
Thank you so much! Have a nice day

Verified reviewMoney missing from my backpack after leaving it in our room. Discovered it first after check out.
This is not true because you stay in a private room ,not in a dorm ! And that day only the owner was checking a shower problem! I know for sure that you are from another hostel.

Verified reviewSilvia made us feel very welcome in her home. She speaks perfect English and gave us lots of useful tourist information and a map. The property has a lovely outdoor communal seating area and our room was very comfortable and clean. The shower was hot and had wifi
Our room could use some more charging plugs, perhaps an extension lead would be useful
Thank you so much ❤️ you are lovely

Overpriced for how basic the dorm is.
