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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

GermanyWe had a great time at ayllu wasi, very welcoming It's close to the beach and also to town is only about 5min Breakfast is simple but good. The burgers are a must try if you stay there. Area feels safe and there is often a sit in of the neighbours in the evening, they are all absolute wonderful persons. It's not really clean, has a camping feeling, but with charm.

GermanySometimes there was no water, and there was only one bathroom. But i think the other one was just not working at that time.
Karina, the owner is really nice and welcoming, we arrived by nightbus at 5/6 am, and we were really happy we could stay from this time on at the Hostal. Our room was comfortable, the terrace was also really nice and the people, which stayed at her place were also cool as well :) One day we went to a place nearby, where Karina cooked for us and we got to know some of her friends.

We arrived at 4 a.m. and had only booked a room for the following night but the owner was kind enough to let us in anyways and give us a place to stay! We could also stay longer after check out and could store our bags at the hostel after check out. The location is 10 minutes away from the beach and the value for the price cannot be beaten.

PeruI had a bad impression of where this hostel was located, very remote area and you have to cross a plain to get to this place, I am a solo traveler and I didn't feel safe at all. When I arrived, I couldn't find the manager and had to wait at least 10 minutes outside the door. When I called her cell phone she told me to call louder because her children would be there. I found the place decadent and dirty, sheets in poor condition and no towels. If there had been an adult when I arrived, I would have gone somewhere else because the place did not match the description in any way, but there was no way to resolve it with a 12/13 year old child. Very bad communication in every sense, he gave me the opportunity to pay upon my arrival thinking that he was European (literal phrase) and when he saw me the next day he emphasized it, very rude attitude towards me. Máncora had problems with water, but they never told me that. I could have organized myself better or they could have provided me with at least a bottle of water for an emergency, the second day I bought it myself to brush my teeth in the morning and at night. Very bad experience.
No matches the description at all.

CanadaWalls of the hostel are mostly made of bamboo splits and so the sound insulation between the rooms is practically none. Tea/coffee maker is only in the kitchen. The breakfast was inconsistent: it was supposed to be served from 8 to 10 am, but on my second morning still at 8:30am nobody showed up in the kitchen, and so I had to leave without breakfast to catch the next bus. I was bitten at night on my legs most probably by bed bugs.
It was affordable accommodation still not too far from the Máncora downtown. The beach was within distance walking under the Pan-american highway bridge. The upper floor terrace was a good place to sit and access Wifi, but dusty as all the town.

United KingdomWhen we arrived at 5am we couldn’t get into the property as front door was locked, so it doesn’t have the 24 hour security as suggested on the list. So we wasted money on a Tuk Tuk going to and from the centre. Also we were overcharged as we were made to pay the Peruvian taxes even though we aren’t from Peru. So we had to pay 18% extra which wasn’t great. Also the kitchen was quite unclean, I wouldn’t want to cook there myself.
The room was big with a private en-suite. Host was really nice and even invited us for ceviche lunch which we didn’t have to pay for.

AustraliaIt was a budget private room but the hospitality really was something else. I feel it is deserving of the 10 rating.
Carina is a natural host and her hospitality really was outstanding. The hostel is in a quiet area and only a few minutes walk to the beach and main restaurant area. Room was very basic but clean and with a private bathroom. The wifi was excellent and the terrace area was great. Was also allowed to shower and use the common spaces while I waited for my night bus. If I hadn't needed to leave I would have stayed longer.
