How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWell located and close to many of the main tourist attractions
The kitchen is very poorly staffed. And what is in there is falling out in pieces, people steal your food from the fridge and the bedrooms have some bits of mold.

Verified reviewFriendly staff, it felt safe, room was clean, hot shower, comfortable bed. The location was amazing - lovely area of San Telmo, with plenty of cafes, bars, restaurants and the markets within short walking distance. A bit noisy at night from other guests, but it seems like a great hostel for the price.
Unfortunately our private room was very damp (I think this was due to the heavy rain). HOWEVER the staff/management were very accommodating and moved us as soon as we let them know, so I cannot fault them at all. Thank you again!

Verified reviewThe place is full of abusive people “clochard type”drinking alcohol, screaming like wild animals and using illegal substances according to the Argentinian government all the time until late hours. Asked the receptionist on duty on 15/09 to make this stop and she got hysterical. Disgusting place overall

Verified reviewThe cleaning staff was attentive
There was no functioning pose machine for international bank cards and the reception woman tried to request your cards info, which was absurd. If you pay with your greenbacks, they could hardly get the exact change for you.

Verified reviewThe clean and tidy rooms. The people were super cool also.
I would like to find at least liquid soap in the bathroom. Maybe a towel... But I think maybe to maintain the cost low it's okish

Verified reviewIs a fair relationship between the price and what’s offered. The location is good and near places of interest like downtown, puerto madero, recoleta among others.
If you stay in the 3rd floor you will have to carry the bags by stairs. There are not elevator s. There could be some noice from the street but nothing that bad at all. There are smoking areas inside the building that are not enclosed and smoke smell is constant, it could be annoying for some one that doesn’t smoke. The rooms need some renovations, there was some humidity in the walls, and the doors key locks system is old so is tricky to open and lock the doors. The hostel only sell coffee and some soft drinks, but for that they only receive cash not cards.

Verified reviewComfortable beds, personal locker available in the room. Power outlets and night light next to the bed. Generally clean and quiet.
Toilet paper was only replenished sporadically. The kitchen was closed for a period in the morning for cleaning.
