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):
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.).

AustraliaAnabella and her partner were very accommodating and friendly. Great communication via WhatsApp to keep as updated which was amazing as we had limited phone service coverage in El Chalafate. The rooms and facilities were clean and comfortable and the place had such a homey feel. We wished we had stayed for longer :)

CanadaToilet flush was not working properly in the first room that we got.
The place is cozy, though a room that I booked was too small for me and my daughter. If you are backpackers it will be fine, but we came with 4 suitcases. The hostess, Anabella, is a sweetheart and she offered us to look for another place since she had a bigger room available only on a third day. We stayed 2 days in a smaller room and as a gesture of hospitality were given a whole private apartment adjacent to the main house. If it is available I recommend to book it. Dining room is cozy. Breakfast is modest but they offer eggs, some fruits, home made marmalade and home made pastry. Location is a few steps away from the central street.

United StatesHaving to pay cash on arrival is a pain in Argentina. Western Union is the only option for cash in Calefate and we’re limited to $100 in ARS. It took us 2hours to get cash after a long bus ride. Hotel needs to take credit cards for 3+ days.

BrazilThe room only has curtains and a lot of light comes in from the street, so if you like sleeping in total darkness, bring a sleep mask or something else to block the light.
First of all, the staff. Anabella and Luciano were not only very kind, as well as very efficient. Our room was pretty spacious, once we took the chalet option. The room was equipped with a small kitchen, and as our departure flight was super early, Luciano was careful to leave us some food the day before, so we didn't leave without breakfast. It is not far from the Main Street, so we did almost everything walking. Anabella helped us with several information regarding currency exchange and transportation.

It's a small and cozy B&B. Anabella was amazing, very helpful and really nice. She gave us advice what to do and where to go. To the city center it's just a 5 minutes walk. The breakfast was very good with homemade jam and cakes. The garden is beautiful. We enjoyed staying here.

United KingdomShower head in room 2 needs replacing. Very poor flow. Just a little bit of TLC and it could be great. Safety deposit box in the room would have been good.
The brother & sister running the hotel were very nice & helpful. Breakfast was nice but a bit of variety each day would have been better. The communal area was lovely with plants & ornaments & a book exchange for guests.

SlovakiaWe asked for quite room, but noise from living room was loud. It's not something terrible, it's a hostel, so in some case you need to count with it. As well our room have nice big window, with view to the garden, but in garden were sitting people from other room (almost under our window) and you don't have anything on windows so they can see you. We managed it with ''bedcarpet'' , so again it wasn't terrible, just maybe something to improve :)
Anastacia who waited for us was amazing! She explained everything, she wrote us in advance, waited for us with check-in, she was very, very nice and professional :) Thanks for that! Breakfast are good, hostel is family business I guess, they have nice garden, flowers, you can see running chickens outside - it all felt very friendly. Locality is also great. It's a hostel and they clean your room each day! (bed, towels, bathroom, everything is clean and smelling nice!) We would book it again :)
