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 reviewNice room, comfortable bed - near the main square! Great value for money too.
It was pretty noisy at night due to our room being close to the street. I imagine rooms not facing the street wouldn’t have that problem

Verified reviewThe hostel is clean and comfortable. There is a good kitchen and the common area is very nice. The staff are very helpful and always available for any question. There is very good hot water in the shower. The hostel is in a great location, near the main square and the bus from Armenia gets you off just in the hostel.
Nothing. It was great.

Verified reviewThis is the second time I have stayed in this place. Staff is friendly, the location is perfect to do things in the center of the town.
Since it is close to the main Square, sometimes people on the street might be loud. But that is not Tralala's fault.

Verified reviewThis was my favourite accommodation during my Colombia travels! We had the suite with a private bathroom, TV, and patio. Lots of greenery as well, so you feel like you're in the jungle! Staff is so very friendly and helpful during the entire stay. Great location too, right by the main square, but not too noisy at night. They also have their own washer and dryer, which is a plus as the clothes don't air dry well due to the humidity. Highly recommend!!
Nothing, was great!

Verified reviewIt is located a block from the main square.
The entrance to our room was in the kitchen, so there was a lot of noise at times. Also, a few times people left their bags in front of our door and it was difficult to get out.

Verified reviewGreat hostel with a great location in the heart of Salento, making it easy to explore the town and nearby attractions. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, always ready to offer recommendations or assist with any needs. The room was spacious, clean, and with comfortable beds. The hostel decoration and walls are colourful like the city. There is a couple of common areas that provide a space to relax. Highly recommended!
The only thing I'd recommend is adding some shelves and hangers in the bathroom so guests have a place for their toiletries.

Verified reviewERIKA! The location was great, the bed and the room also super comfortable and the mood with the plants inside is also suuuuper nice when you wake up with the birds noise. However, for us the best of the hostel was Erika, she helped us with all our questions even before we got there, once in the hostel she gave us many recommendations and helped us with literally everything, you know these king of people that makes your experience even better. Therefore I can only recommend this place, we loved it! Gracias Erika por todo🤍

Verified reviewThe property is closed to the main square. It looks like an old traditional house. Access to a common kitchen.
The room was closed to the stairs and the wooden floor allows you to know who enters or leaves the property all the time (24h). The windows are wooden so all the noise or smell from the cars petrol enters into the room. The room was not clean properly as I had hair from other guests. The bathroom smells bad and water was leaking from the toilet. The lavabo is on top of the wc so no place to put your stuff. The soap provided is very basic.

Verified reviewTralala was perfect! The surroundings, the location, the cleanliness, the social kitchen. It really was the highlight of my accommodations in Colombia. While nervous about a (single) room without a window, it received sun from the bathroom and there was a cute window in the door. It was walking distance to everything you needed (Willy's, bus station, restaurants, grocery store) and I met some of the most interesting travelers in their courtyard. Can't wait to return!

Verified reviewThe staff was kind. Localization was fine, close to everything
The room was dark and very humid. If you get wet your clothes may not get dry fast. The room looks clean at first but at night we were bitten probably by bed bugs. You can’t expect a lot for such a low price. Nevertheless we were disappointed because the place has good reviews
Hello! So maybe you should have opened the big window to let in some fresh air and light and not have your wet clothes all day in a closed room during rainy season. You could also have used the dryer-service we offer. And why you think you were bitten by bed bugs is not clear, we never had bed bugs and didn’t find any. Most certainly the bites were just from ordinary mosquitos. So you liked the personal, the location, the clean room and the low price, but because your wet clothes didn’t dry inside the room and some mosquito bites you rate us with a four. And you wonder why we get so many good ratings? It’s because we offer a great service and don’t get many clients like you…
