Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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 KingdomThe bathrooms. The bathrooms in the room where not private, the water pressure was so low it felt like showering with a drip and the bigger shared dorms although it had two bathrooms, the bathroom was open at the top and bottom. This meant the whole room can hear what's going on in the bathroom and smell too. The showers always had sand and slippery floor, which I understand is difficult to keep clean but the dispenses were empty. I liked the hostel but that was so uncomfortable it made me feel like I needed a good shower after I left.
I liked the food options and the yoga class provided by the hostel. It's a good location on the beach and had friendly staff who helped. The hostel is pretty and a calm vibe where we were able to relax.

PolandI asked for ealier check in and they didnt let me, and by the time of check in the room was not ready so i waited another hours…. Badly organized. The staff at bar is super slow, i waited for coffee and breakfast more than 45 minutes and had to ask for coffee 3 times. I try not to complain about staff like that but it was a bit annoying. Fan and light was not working well and light was switching on at night. Selina charges quite much for stay so at least service could be good.
Location was great, and room nice.

ColombiaThe bad: - Problems with running water: I was not able to take a shower at night and my wife couldn't do it in the morning. For a stay like this I consider this highly problematic in this price point. I didn't receive any guidance or work-around from management either, so very dissatisfied in that regard - Access to take the sun in the beach is not ideal
Great breakfast

DenmarkPricy bar and restaurant. The next door disco pounding away killed the evening mood. Both may attribute to the lack of patrons after dark. Sorely lacked hammocks!

United KingdomRooms are a little "pokey" no ac, food is good quality but, as with all Selinas, the drinks are overpriced.
The location is excellent, and the beach bar is the best, in my opinion, in Palomino. The location and atmosphere is superb. Yoga and staff are good. Has a swimming pool,

NetherlandsSince it is at Palomino beach some other bars at the beach can be loud during the night (mainly in the weekends). If you want a more quit night don’t book at the beach front or Carrera 6 but more in the outside areas of the town.
Amazing location at the Palomino beach where the vibe is awesome and sunsets are stunning. Friendly and super helpful staff. Gregory did an amazing job helping me when I was sick during my stay. There are really nice yoga sessions in the morning. Cleaning of room everyday. The breakfast was also really good.

SwitzerlandThe dinner menu prices were not matching the quality. The pillows were way too large to be useful. For the price, I was expecting a much nicer room. The choice of excursions could have been better. The beach was nice, but it was more for surfing than for normal sunbathers, there's nicer beaches in Colombia.
The location was great! The beach bar and live music was excellent. The pool was very clean. I loved the weekend breakfast brunch! I liked the choice of toiletries in the bathroom. The welcome drink was delicious.

we stayed one night, my boyfriend stayed at Selina in Costa Rica and said it was great. This hostal was in front of the beach, had a great bartender who served us amazing drinks. the hostal was amazing and had yoga classes. The pool was not working when we got there unfortunately.
