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.).

United StatesWonderful breakfast, hot water, comfy beds, kind staff, and about 4 blocks from the plaza. I think this is a renovation and rebranding from a previous Casa Wayra BnB that you might see in guide books. I didn’t stay there so can’t compare, but this was a great value for everything we needed.

NorwayVery thin walls so take ear plugs . There's a school sports facility nearby too so can be very noisy during the day. Rooms ok. Don't provide any water but this is the case all over Peru.
Friendly staff, lovely terrace and breakfast. 4 blocks from Plaze Mayor. Busy street but quieter at night than in the area near the Plaza as there are more clubs etc there. We arranged the tour to Colca Canyon with the hotel directly and were very happy with that.

United StatesWe stayed in two rooms at this hotel (before and after our 2 day colca canyon trip) the first room was a bit small and there wasn't a lot of airflow, but it was comfortable enough. The second room was bigger, but a bit more expensive, however, because it was on the ground floor facing the inner patio, it was very noisy, we could here everyone talking from very early in the morning. The breakfast and the staff were great and very accommodating, they stored our luggage during our Colca trip free of charge. The location is good, a short walk to Plaza de Armas and a bit of a longer walk to the main restaurants. Overall it was a good short stay, fairly priced.

The location is perfect, close to the historic center, yet surrounded by many excellent local restaurants. The room was nice, the breakfast was standard, and there was hot water.

LithuaniaThe pillows could be more comfortable. The lunchbox was a bit weird though—just a bottle of water and a pack of chips, which was unexpected. Maybe it was our fault as we asked to pack our breakfast too late in the evening and they did not have time and/or staff to prepare them.
The location was really convenient, close to everything we wanted to see and do. Breakfast was really nice with lots of food to fill you up. The staff was friendly and made sure everything was well taken care of. Overall, a comfortable stay.

United StatesWe arrived in Arequipa, Peru mid-morning and were allowed an early check-in. The hostess, who I believe was the owner, greeted us warmly. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the showers were nice and hot. We stayed there for 2 nights before heading off to our next adventure, but due to a change of plans (my husband’s altitude sickness) we returned to Arequipa with no hotel reservations anywhere. We walked the 10-15 minutes from La Plaza de Armas to the Chikan hostel crossing our fingers the entire way, hoping they had an open room. They did and greeted us like family once again. The second room was just as nice as the first. We also had a delicious hot breakfast every morning we were there. Overall, a very nice place to stay in Arequipa.

Czech RepublicI truly cannot think of anything. It was a great experience.
The hotel is in an amazing location, only a few minutes from the main square. The staff is unbelievably friendly and helpful. Also, they let us check in at 9 am after the night bus we took, so the chance to refresh ourselves was so, so appreciated. The breakfast is served on the rooftop with an amazing view and the breakfast itself is super tasty.

We were very happy with this hotel located a 10-minute walk away from Plaza de Armas (main square). The room was a decent size, had a comfortable bed, was quiet. The shower was good & always had hot water. A good breakfast with eggs (they’ll cook you pancakes if you ask) is served on the nice roof terrace with views over the surrounding volcanoes - we loved having breakfast up here! The owner, his wife & staff are friendly. You do have to ring the bell to get inside the hotel in the night time, which we normally don’t like but it was never a problem here as we never had to wait long & the area is safe. We recommend staying here.
