Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesAll was good, the only things that could have been better are the shower in our dorm (little water) and the AC did not cool very well the second night (even tho the settings were set correctly). No deal breaker for me and has potential for 10 stars with small improvements.
Great common area and nice designed and thought through common areas. Very social hostel, perfect for solo travelers who like to meet people. Each dorm has a kitchen and bathroom.

Very friendly place. Quick response by email whenever I had a question. A few blocks from the ocean and sandy beach. Nothing fancy but worked for a bed and location great. Reasonably priced. Community refrigerator and microwave etc. KFC, McDonalds, Walgreens, and several restraunts nearby. Uber super reasonable.

ItalyIt was a little loud in the night, I think my room was limiting with a comercial place, so in the early morning there was a lot of rush. The place can have some renovations, like the bathroom (shower) was old. But just little things, its a good price for the quality one can expect.
The position is nice, lively neighborhood. Easy to find, nice walks. Staff was super gentle. It is clean. It's fine for the price.

United StatesThe extra cash I had to pay no tv and the beds are cots like I was in the Marines again. the beach is further than We expected maybe 3 long blocks away and the heat was unbelivable so try to wear as less cloths as possible.
The atmosphere was good but make sure you request the bathroom in side the room. Being private doesnt always mean one step away. No tv and younger crowd. It was ok but not for the extra $$ I had to pay. Wont be staying there again. But if you like a style of camping this place is for you. Hippies are welcome.

United StatesThere was no one from the villa on property so some of the other guests were loud in the courtyard. We knew we were booking a hostel but had hoped for a little bit more quiet after 1am in the common space. The guests were not in their rooms being loud but our room off the kitchen, we could hear all the guests roaming around and having long conversations/singing at 2am.
We liked the communication and the comfortability of the beds/room/bathroom. It was a great place to crash for a quick night. I am a little bit older then the medium age of people that I came into contact with. It was definitely a younger vibe than I prefer on vacation. The beds were very comfortable and the air condition was a great bonus on a warm night. There are some very cute shops/cafe's near by. The beach was beautiful and a quick walk from the Villa.

United StatesThe shower is on a different system where it is either hot or cold. The only time I had warm water was during the few seconds that it transitioned from hot to cold. Once it changed to hot, it was very hot.
Very friendly & helpful staff. The room was clean & very comfortable. Location was great - near restaurants, airport & a Walgreens across the street for snacks & forgotten items!
