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.).

GermanyThe Hotel is divided in two main buildings, which was not entirely clear from booking. So a part of our group ended up staying in one building and the other two in the other building, that was a bit unfortunate. Also some beds had mosquito nets and others didn't.
The Food was excellent and the calm and serene atmosphere of the Hotel was magnificent. The free Yoga classes every morning were a big plus.

United KingdomThe only downside is that that the walk into Minca is down a long road with no streetlights, so a bit scary at night if walking solo.
I had an amazing stay here and would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Minca. Amazing value for money considering the standard of the place and the fact that there’s free breakfast (I highly recommend the pancakes) and free morning yoga. The property is beautiful, views are amazing, the pool area is great, the food is delicious, staff are super friendly. It definitely feels more like a hotel than a hostel. I stayed in a mixed 8-person dorm which was comfortable, decent storage space. In addition to the dorm’s bathroom there are also bathrooms and a shower off the main corridor, which meant I was rarely left waiting for a bathroom. The restaurant’s food is really delicious. A bit on the higher budget end, but there’s a pizza place v nearby if looking for something cheaper, or can walk into Minca. 100% recommend staying here!

United KingdomThis is a bit of hostel/hotel hybrid and there were a LOT of people just hanging out at the hotel all day every day, meaning it was nearly impossible to find a sofa or lounger to use near the pool. Day bed/sofas had people’s stuff plonked on them from like 6/7am onwards. We were poorly during our stay and ended up confined to the hotel for 3 full days… we managed to get a seat in the shade near the pool for approx 2 hours during our entire stay. There also NEEDS to be parasols/umbrellas out over the sun lounger area - the decking area is so nice and has the best view, but it’s baffling not to offer any form of shade from the blazing sun!!! There were also constant floating dead bugs in the pool - I know this is Minca and it’s to be expected but I didn’t see anyone through the day keeping the pool clean with a net… made it really uninviting as the day went on. Why oh why aren’t there mosquito nets in the rooms! Bedroom doors are left wide open after they have been cleaned and whilst waiting for check-ins. There’s nothing to stop the bugs… I got bitten to shreds overnight :(
This hotel really is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, was one of the best hotel rooms we’ve had in our travels across Colombia so far. The bed was even bordering on soft!!! A miracle. Lovely bed linens, doors opened up onto the pool area, great bathroom. We slept like a log - thought the room location would be really noisy but it wasn’t at all. A really tranquil stay! The breakfast offering was really great (eggs, pancakes or granola) all made fresh to order each morning. Gorgeous restaurant setting and loved sitting and watching the humming birds. The pool area and view is so lovely, really tastefully done and a great place to hang out. The staff were all so kind and friendly, and the ordering system makes everything so easy - you get an electronic bracelet to charge everything to and then clear your bill by card on checkout! Reception were great and helped order airport taxis and can recommend on tours/activities etc. Would come back in a heartbeat!!!
