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 staff did not change the sheets of the bed When I complained the boss my scream disappointed and she lock me up Never book this hostel !!!!
These people checked the room before staying, they comfortably used all the services, at no time did they report a complaint and the next day they dirtied the entire room, we had to call the police because they did not want to pay using as an excuse that the room was dirty and it is not like that, they checked it even before booking it, the moment they arrived they said they did not have cash to pay, so we left it for the next day when they started saying all kinds of bad comments, saying that it was dirty when we called the police magically if they had money, their intention from the beginning was not to pay

Verified reviewHad a really good experience in this posada, the staff is super friendly, pristine facilities, good breakfast, awesome location and always fresh coffee, what else can someone ask for?
The small room downstairs is very humid, after two nights it starts to get uncomfortable as nothing really dries

Verified reviewFriendly staff to help you with any question you might have. You really feel at home Great location!
Unfortunately we got an inner room with a ‘window’ to the dining room. So, it was not possible to open it. The room was dark and noisy. We could hear all conversations. If you get a room in the second floor, I think this will be a nice hotel. Make sure you select one of those to have a good stay here.

Verified reviewAll of the staff were so lovely and friendly. The room was great - loved the decor, felt like you were in someone’s home rather than a hotel. Plenty of space for bags etc and still space to sit either at the little table or on the sofa. Bed was extremely comfortable. Great location in centre of town. Recommend taking the larger queen room as it’s up stairs so opens onto a balcony rather than onto communal courtyard. Also lots of windows so plenty of light.
Breakfast was better than most we’ve had in Colombia but a little more variety would make it absolutely perfect.

Verified reviewThe location is great and the staff is helpful. The breakfast is also good. Parking is close and private.
The bed is extremely hard! But this seems to be the standard in Colombia.

Verified reviewPosada Martha Tolima is the hidden gem of Salento! Our room was creatively decorated, clean and spacious...very unique and comforting and great bed. You climb a colorful tiled spiral staircase to get to the second floor with an open balcony to view the back court scenery. You can also breakfast or work from the second floor with a view. Breakfast is individually prepared each day from a list of 10 meals selections. It's fast and good and their coffee is some of the best that I have had in Colombia. The staff is super friendly and helped w lots of our questions and were particularly helpful with our transportation issues, This place is more of a home than hotel. We felt very safe and welcomed here. They have a common den for just hanging out or relaxing with a book, laptop or cleaning your cell phone, The WiFi was great throughout. There are collections hanging everywhere. We particularly liked the wide display of ceramic Colombian churches. . Logistically, they are 1 1/2 blocks from the Town Square, just far enough away from any noise or traffic which was modest at best. We would return here in a heartbeat and highly recommend a stay here.
I have no issues with this establishment at all.

Verified review+ very good location, 1 minute walk from the main square
- some breakfast options or particular products were unavailable, eg. sandwich set was unavailable because ham was missing, on our 3rd day butter for toasts was lacking - soap container in our room was empty when we came and was filled in only when we asked for
Good morning, thank you very much for your comment, but if you did not feel comfortable on the first day of your stay, you could have looked for another place that was to your likin

Verified reviewGreat location (quite relative to the other parts of town, but close to everything), artsy room decor, oscillating fan to circulate the air in the room, tasty breakfast, very friendly staff (but practice your Spanish - no English is spoken).
Breakfast starts at 7:30 and is made one at a time, so if you have activities planned that start early, on-side breakfast may not be a viable option for you. Pillows are not very comfortable - too thin for back sleepers and too springy to stack together. Dim lighting in the bathroom - not really fit for shaving. The hostel is pad locked for the night, so you need to flag down a staff member with the key to enter and exit during off-hours.
Good morning Don Mark, thank you very much for your comment. But if you didn't like the room the first night, you could have looked for something you liked and not stayed where you didn't like it and only heard a negative point and breakfast time is always served at that time and you knew it. and you are not given keys to the main door, it is for the safety of the guests and we also do not know which guest we are with.

Verified reviewSuper comfortable bed. The shower was awesome and didn’t run out of hot water. The location was great, right off the main Square but still super quiet at night. The main guy at the front desk was very nice. There was a language barrier, but he was very patient until I could understand. Nice breakfast menu with great food.
The top blanket had a bit of an unpleasant smell to it.
