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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomThe Wi-Fi was a bit spotty, but there are several networks to choose from, and if you move around, you can usually connect to one that works.
The staff were friendly, especially Sanja, who deserves the Employee of the Century award. This helped create a welcoming social vibe, which is important in Medellín, the party capital of the world. The beds had privacy curtains. The breakfast was yummy!

BrazilAs usual in Medellin, the price is too high for a hostel
Good location in a calm street with view to the woods but 5 minutes to the busy Provenza nightlife. Social area to meet other guests. If you get the double bed it is really comfortable.

AustraliaWe got the room next to the kitchen which was loud. if you are unlucky to get that room turn the fan on so it can drown out some of the noise.
Staff were lovely and helpful. Good location for Pablado but a 30 minute walk to the metro which we didn’t mind. Nice common areas.

Portugalif you want to go out I don’t recommend this place since it’s already a bit outside el poblado and I didn’t feel safe walking back home alone at night.
if you’re looking for a calm place to stay that it’s still walking distance from el poblado this is it. the rooms were really big and spacious.

IrelandUnfortunately there was a construction site next door - completely out of the hostels control, but being awoken at 6am every morning was not ideal!
The location was ideal for us - close to restaurants, supermarket and in a quiet area. The staff were amazing - incredibly helpful with tour information, transport etc but also very chatty and interested in us. The kitchen was spacious and well stocked. We enjoyed the outside common space. Breakfast included pancakes which was a nice treat. The fruit was freshly cut every morning. The walk to and from the hostel to the main Poblado area, even at night, felt very safe.

HungaryI felt the lack of air inside the building, and my room did not have a window, also there was a strange smell because of this. The breakfast was simple (pancakes) but ok. For the price I expected higher quality service, or better equipped room, but its a hostel with basic things, nothing special indicating the high price for a basic dorm bed. The neighbourhood is safe, but Poblado metro station is more than 30 minutes by walking, so I was not amazed by the location. Curtains are missing from the beds.
The staff is very nice and helpful, the athmosphere is great. Bathroom&shower were really nice, cozy and big.

RomaniaThe dorm I was put in had the lockers occupied with things belonging to people living there . Also the bathroom was full with their stuff too. In the mornings people were sleeping in the common area (maybe drunk guests, or volunteers or just people living there). Breakfast had to be cooked by one self which is a nice idea but not so nice when everyone puts their hands in the pancake bowl or coffee pot.
The terrace , nice hot shower , location.

United States**I didn't like that the main bathrooms upstairs inside the room and outside did not have hand soap for washing your hands after using the bathroom. It's so important, especially during Covid times, to have antibacterial hand soap and hand sanitizer handy after using the restroom! Fortunately, I carry hand sanitizer with me everywhere I go now. **I was charged more than $3,000 pesos per hour for a late checkout after 12pm noon ($10,000 pesos for 3 hours or 1/3 the cost of the room for one night). I don't think any hostel or hotel would charge this absurd amount but I paid it anyway because the cost wasn't too bad.
**The positive energy at this hostel is pretty cool from the guests to the volunteers and staff. Everyone was very kind. We went out together as a group of like 20 people one weekend. It was fun! **The beds have outlets so you can charge your phones. **The showers have hot water. **It's located in a nice part of Poblado, away from the discos and bars, but walking distance to everything you could want. **They make strong cocktails at the bar and the prices aren't expensive. **The hostel has a variety of games to play with other guests on cold or rainy days when you don't want to go out.
