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.).

ChileI had issues with electric plugs and TVs were too old (blurry image). Nothing I really cared, but I had to mention it.
Comfy. Delicious breakfast and beautiful views from the window.

United StatesNice house, 10 min walk to the Centro with good restaurants and shops. Set back far enough from the main road that sleeping in was an option. Staff was nice and the place was clean. Breakfast is a simple spread every morning but good; fruit, scrambled eggs, juice, toast, cereal with hams and cheeses. Wifi can be spotty depending on where you are and how many people are on it but an intl Sim helps with that.

United StatesWe had a downstairs room but really heard very little noise overhead.
Casa Kalfu is a charming facility. We had no problem checking and found our room to be clean and well appointed. the location puts it far enough from city center to limit hoards of cruise ship day trippers from impacting your stay but close enough to be able to walk there. Also there are several restaurants in the immediate area.

United StatesLocation was perfect, block off the lake and a great little restaurant. The room was very comfortable and the shower was great. The breakfast in the morning was perfect, lots of selection. Parking is right behind the hotel. Our room was on the lower level and there was a little noise from people above, however, we sleep with white noise so wasn't much of an issue. We have a second stay booked in a couple days.

United StatesNoise from other guests departing earlier than us. Some were dragging their suitcases down wooden steps - very noisy. Would have liked a mini-fridge because we were on a 6 week journey and need to keep some items refrigerated.
Service was great, including breakfast. I liked that it was unique and charming.

United StatesLiterally nothing we didn't like, it was very charming.
We loved this place, our first stop in Chile! Very friendly :) It has a great location (a block away from an excellent pizza place), and walking distance from downtown. We walked down the hill to the walking path by the water, then towards downtown. The breakfast (free) was very good (meat, cheese, bread, fresh made-to-order eggs, good coffee and a sweet cake). We paid for lunch there and ate good sandwiches. The host spoke excellent English and was very helpful.

BrazilMy only complain was the poor wifi connection.
Kalfu is great, very comfortable and clean. At first it may seem a bit far from the city centre, but Puerto Varas is a really small town, in 10min walking you reach everything you need. The staff is lovely, very helpful and made us feel very welcomed. The breakfast doesn’t offer wide range of options, however everything was delicious.
