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.).

It had no chairs nor table in the room so we sat on the bunk beds and knocked our heads a couple times

Verified reviewbreakfast was OK. I did not like the fact I fell and lost my phone and cash in the process. No indication what so ever of the massive trench dug in the parking lot. I fell and twisted my ankle and lost my phone and money clip that was on the back of it. My bank card was with it too. Because the fall was so traumatic as we were leaving to have dinner in town, I was helped up and got in the car feeling embarrassed and in much pain. An employee came out and told me to go to the hospital and I told her im not going to a hospital here for a sprained ankle and we left as I was in agony. It was only whebn we got to the restaurant I noticed my phone was missing, we thought it may be in the car or back at the hotel. But when we got back the hotel showed me that they have cameras but no access to the camera in front where the cars are parked because the owners are out of town and no one had access. So I was never able to see who took my phone and cash because of this reason. I knew the thieves were still in the hotel as I could feel it. As I was sitting with my friends they were hacking my phone and stealing my money and Identification.. not a pleasant experience to say the least. The staff should have been able to access the cameras so we could have caught the thieves as they were still on the property. Very disappointing to say the least
better access and find the persons who stole from me and decided not to hand it in when found, the money I get it but my phone and personal information just shows me no intention of ever returning it what so ever. Horrible to think they can get away with such crimes is disgusting. imo.
Hello, I am so sorry that happened during your stay! Only the manager/owners can access the cameras, that is correct. Our cameras only cover certain areas - so it isn't guaranteed that the camera covered the area you dropped your property in. I'll ask the staff where you fell and if we need to paint in that area or what may have prevented you from falling.

Verified reviewThe friendly dogs on the property, the size of the pool, the shared refrigerator and microwave, bottled water & tea in the morning.
The coffee was terrible, and the mattresses were not overly comfortable. There were no hooks anywhere in the room to hang wet towels.

Verified reviewseveral very helpful employees, nice places to sit outside, appreciate having a bar on premises
one employee giving very bad info that cost us money and a big argument with the driver, the constant loud music played at the bar was impossible to escape - regardless if anyone was at the bar - and it was very very bad music. It was a bar - but 3 types of rum, some gin and local beer, thats it

Verified reviewNice little unit with fun games and good vibes – especially if the weather is nice.
The location was not ideal. Quite loud music starting at 10am. We found the staff a bit unfriendly. You can’t cook your own food (the stove gave electric shocks).
Thank you for your review, safe travels.

Verified reviewI like that the property allows dogs.
I used to love this property but the last two stays have been quite disappointing. Loud music going until 11pm (past posted quiet hours), overcrowded pool during the day with raunchy music not good for kids, water from the shower so full of bleach that it triggered an asthma attack and severe eye irritation, rooms with various parts not working (outlets, toilets that make loud noises constantly, etc). Unfortunately the guests we’ve brought the last two times have been unhappy also.
Thank you for your review, safe travels.

Verified reviewSwimming pool, chill zone, good internet
Very loud AC, expensive food in the restaurant. The receptionist made me wait until the last minute of check-in start time. I was waiting for 3 hours while the dormitory was empty!
Matas, I am so glad you enjoyed the grounds and our Wi-Fi. In regard to the issues brought up: Our cleaning staff clean/refresh rooms before check-in, so we give them ample time to make sure the units are ready for check-in at 2PM. A/C in our dorm is a window unit. Restaurant prices range from $7-$15 USD. We wish you safe travels!

Verified reviewGreat facilities—loved the pool and trampoline for the kids. Nice location in an interesting part of town. Not in Saint Ignacio, but it’s only a 30 min walk (5 min cab) to the touristy part. There are a few restaurants around if you don’t feel like going in. The hotel also has a good restaurant + bar.
All good.
