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 KingdomThe rooms are in 2-floor wooden bungalows with no sound proofing. It was impossible to fall asleep with the noise the family upstairs was doing. It was also impossible to completely keep the light how because of the very design of the curtains. The staff was lovely but it was clear that the core activity was the marina and they were a little clueless when things didn’t fit in the check list.
The property is located by the river front with beautiful views, and the restaurant area is a lovely place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.

United StatesI did not enjoy that there were roaches in my bedroom both on the floor and in the bathroom. The water was really cold and I was sick during my stay so taking a shower was hard. The food at the restaurant was good, however, it took a long time to be served. The second bedroom also had an AC malfunction in the middle of the night and my family that was in that bedroom was unable to sleep.
I enjoyed location and overall vibe of the place. My family enjoyed the pool and thought the food was good. The rooms were comfy enough and the AC was important with the heat.

United KingdomLots of cleaning of the pool furniture during our two day stay, which was really loud! The pillows were a little lumpy.
The pool is great, and the view of the river from the terrace outside our room is lovely. The room is quite comfortable, the shower works well. Wi-Fi was good. Our kids loved the boat playground.

United StatesWe booked this hotel as we were driving to our destination. I called and asked if they would let us check in at midnight and they were happy to have us. When we arrived, they greeted us, showed us to our room, and said we could deal with the paperwork in the morning. When we woke up in the morning, I was astounded by their beautiful location, tranquility around the river, and excellent restaurant. The paperwork was fast and we had a delicious meal before continuing on our journey.I wish we had more time to enjoy their pool and riverfront views.

GuatemalaI did NOT like that the price offered was not matching the final payment i had to pay for the room, this can be called a scam and bad publicity, when i asked for the price match the front desk person told me "we are even charging less than we should" but you can charge whatever amount you want, but be transparent to don't have misleading charges. as a tourist for me this is severe, because there might be people with strict budget and plans coming from other countries and that is not the way to treat a guest.
I liked that checkin was fast, hotel location was nice and clean, pool was empty. as is a marine there is no hotel people working there only the marine staff is in charge so expect no much hospitality

United KingdomDidn't respond to booking.com app messages pre arrival re getting to accommodation from bus stop. '24-hr front desk' advertised but no answer to phone calls at night, and no one on front desk when we eventually arrived. We were left stranded on the wrong side of an open bridge in a thunderstorm, property did not respond to requests for shuttle (as advertised). Eventually we made it to a locked gate, which was unlocked after much repeated buzzing and knocking at the door. Night security checked us in ok, but room was a far cry from the 5* advertised. Room was old, tired, uncomfortable, and small, without being cosy or charming. Shower was especially disappointing but functional. WiFi code not given and didn't reach our room anyway. Of the several hundred booking.com places I've stayed, this is in the bottom 1%. If arriving by Fuerte Del Norte bus, stay on the west side of Rio Dulce and avoid this place if possible. Not worth the money.
Organised collectivo lancha to pick us up from the hotel for Livingston.
