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.).

Verified reviewThe hotel is centrally located on the main street, with an ATM next door and several restaurants and a supermarket nearby, which is convenient. The staff were friendly and welcomed us with an offer for a local excursion right on arrival.
The room itself was quite small and the mattress too soft for our liking. There was no hot water during our stay, and the shower room had a window with a view directly into the neighbors’ property, which didn’t feel very private. When it rains, the sound of the tin roof can be loud, and noise from traffic, chickens, and dogs made it hard to get a good night's sleep.

Verified reviewLocation was fantastic. The restaurant below had tasty food for a good price. The bed was comfortable and was great it had AC.
It was loud. Not just the neighbours roosters, but you could hear people walking down the corridor and kitchen so clearly. The shower was cold (don’t mind) but it dribbled and had no pressure. Staff wasn’t really around at all. Went multiple times to try and ask about laundry but no one there. Wifi was very bad and patchy.

I couldn't sleep all night because of the thin walls. I could hear neighbors, dogs, roasts... everything around. A lot of ants in the room. Seriously I don't understand who gave such a high rating to this property. It's awful.

Verified reviewLovely rooms, plenty of space. Super location and very helpful staff.
The kitchen equipment was very poor. Only 2 pans for boiling water. All but one of the pans had very wobbly handles and they got too hot to touch. Not enough space to sit in the kitchen and the balcony was often occupied by others.

Verified reviewIt‘s a nice place, pretty new and modern, everything is clean and works well. The kitchen is not super well equipped, but has the most important things you need. If you are you are a diver, the location is perfect. For surfers I recommend other places closer to the main surf spot La Punta.
There is no wardrobe or anything else to put your clothes. AND: There is no real outside area, like a garden or terrace. So there is basically no place to hang your wet clothes for drying. Or to put your surfboard. There is no real community area either, apart from the reception room with two small couches, that will be closed at around 7pm. So if you want to hang out, you can only do it in the restaurant bellow. They neighbors‘ chicken wake up pretty early and so will you! But that‘s fine, better than a noisy road, right? ;)
