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.).

We rented apartment Casa 1. Pretty garden view. Kitchen, sitting area, comfortable bed, reliable internet, screens for cool breeze, hot water (took awhile). Clean, good price, great location to downtown Panajachel yet quiet. Very nice.

United StatesThe two beds were not separated so there wasn't much privacy for the two couples. The mattresses were not as comfortable as others I've stayed at this trip.
Great walking distance to the night life in Pana. Also we were able to eat the hotel breakfast next door for cheap price.

United StatesVery dim lighting. Higher wattage bulbs or more lights are needed, Roosters will wake you up at night--but that is not a complaint but part of the experience of being in Guatemala in a real place and not an artificial tourist resort,
Exceptional decor throughout the complex with a very helpful staff. Our apartment was well equipped, roomy, clean, and comfortable. The complex was an oasis in the noisy city of Pana and offered filtered water and was conveniently located.

GermanyWhile I fully recommend the hotel as a base to explore the area -the apartment is vey comfortable, staff are great, in other words in itself the hotel is very good- I was shocked by the level of noise at night. I had read reviews and had earplugs but given I was there during the weekend, the parties were inevitably disturbing and made for difficult sleep. This is more than anything a comment on Panajachel, a particularly intense and loud city.
This hotel is in a very beautiful place, the gardens are stunning, it is nicely decorated and very well equipped. I stayed at the apartment, which is very comfortable. Terrace in the main building is an excellent spot to enjoy morning and afternoon.

New ZealandThe apartment was close to the busy, restaurant and nightclub part of town and at night there was noise from the roof top bar but it did not go too,late and it was quiet round 11/12pm. No road noise.
Apartment in a good central location set in beautiful private garden setting. The apartment is an older style but had everything we needed. The kitchen had everything we needed with bar style table and chairs, good size bathroom, bedroom with comfortable enough chairs. It opened out onto a nice wide terrace with table and chairs and looked out into the lovely garden. Enclosed, secure comparing within easy reach of the town. A 10/15 minute walk to the lake. Close to a comprehensive supermarket.

United Statesthere was construction so there was no onsite parking yet and it was a bit difficult to navigate there. but that’s not the hotels fault. they did amazing accommodating us with everything.
despite the fact that it’s right in the middle of Pana, it is tucked away in an alley so it feels like a secret garden. amazing views of the mountains and the 2 bedroom each with a private bathroom, full living dining and kitchen areas was so perfect. love this place!

The grounds are lovely and I used one of their hammocks to hang out in. There's parking which I didn't use. Room was large and comfortable, a bit dated and the kitchenette was a bit funky. Bed was comfortable and the area is quiet. Breakfast was good and served on the patio.

AustraliaThe kitchen table is a high bench with truly uncomfortable metal stools. The location is awful. Nightclubs very close. Loud music until 1am (Fri/Sat). Had to put earbuds in to stream a movie because the music was so loud. Biggest issue is the use of firework crackers by club goers (throwdowns/bungers). They’re allowed at any time. Got woken by crackers repeatedly, up until 7am. Not sure, but the villa may get more noise impacted than the units because it has more windows, gaps around doors and not thick concrete walls.
Large space villa with everything you need for a short or longer stay, including lots of kitchen appliances. Bed was comfortable. Shower was okay. Nice garden entrance down an alleyway. Gates to property locked at night. Wifi was consistent and strong signal during my stay.
