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):
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.).

United StatesAlways have a hard time with beds against the wall. It means one person has to scoot down to the bottom of the bed to get out of it, which often wakes the other person.
Great location and good price. Even in the street side room, outside noise was minimal due to the A/C and dehumidifier. The use of the pool at the neighboring hotel was a super addition.

PortugalCan be a little more clean. The kitchen closes at 8 pm.
The Best dorm room i have ever stayed in!! Looking better in reality than in the photos, big and spacious. There are lockers and curtains. In side the space of the room there are two toilets and the best warm shower. The kitchen is small but pretty equipped. The common areas are nice.

United StatesWonderful little Inn in a quieter area of San Pedro. Just steps from the waterfront, this is the perfect place to stay if you want to explore Ambergris Caye and San Pedro on a budget. My wife and I stayed in one of their private rooms, and we were very happy with it. The staff is super friednly and helpful, the Inn is very cute with its little plunge pool in the courtyard, and if you want to cook your own meals, there is a small kitchen available. They even provide you with water, coffee and tea at the front desk, and there are some after sun lotions and sun screen available that you can borrow. Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Drift Inn and in San Pedro and would definitely recommend staying here.

United StatesThis was a private room at a hostel with a shared kitchen which I didn’t need or realize. Very basic room for the cost which I felt was high. Sink in main room is totally rusted out and needs replacing/painting.
Very close to the boat harbor and friendly staff. Nice restaurant in front with hammocks that hotel guests could use with affordable menu

United KingdomWe loved our stay, the only thing we could possibly comment on is perhaps having a broom in the room would be helpful to sweep out the sand we brought in on our shoes. But this was available at reception. We really enjoyed our stay.
The central location was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The staff provided great information leading up to our stay. The room was perfect for our stay and air conditioning was excellent.

United StatesNothing. But do know it’s not on the water (most aren’t) but steps away from docks. Love Palapa.
Felt like a home with beachy vibes. I had the private king room which was so comfortable. The staff is amazing and booked all my excursions and gave me advice like visiting the iguana sanctuary.

SwitzerlandWould have loved the mattress to be less softer. It wasn’t the most appropriate for people with back issues. But, my room was in 1st floor so almost perfect. Also, they charge in advance regardless if there is a threat of hurricanes, I could have lost 800 USA bcs they would have never reimbursed me. Maybe, better to fully avoid traveling on this period of time !
Love this place, from the first moment you step in the staff makes you feel like at home. Even extended my stay (to 18 days in total), would have never left if I could !! The so called Sandbar hostel right behind Drif Inn (where I stayed 9y ago) is still very social. Very easy to meet other travelers and locals as well. The Island vibes are great too. As solo female traveler felt safe at all times. Stephanie is very supportive. Receptionists & bar tenders too. Thanks guys !!!
