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 location is perfect and the staff is very pleasant.
I have stayed at this property before, many times, and it’s not because of the breakfast. 🤷🏽♂️🥴. But I don’t stay at hotels because of its breakfast. I stay because of its location. Its staff is always pleasant. It’s clean. The hotel has a nice vibe.

Verified reviewLocation
Was given a room that wasn't what I booked. Was stuck in elevator for 30 minutes with the doors opening to nothing but a brick wall. Felt like I was being buried alive. Once rescued by staff person, he proceeded to basically should us for pushing the emergency but several times and was very rude and made light of the fact that we were stuck saying" this can happen in the best hotels" as if that was comforting after panicking in hot elevator for 30 minutes.... that same stuff member proceeded to tell us that we should just leave the hotel... That same staff proceeded to tell front desk clerk to just give us our money and go. So rude and disrespectful so we did just that... we left. After arriving at the hotel to check in went spent a total of 45 minutes in the building and left rolling suitcases up and down streets of Cartegena Columbia looking for another hotel.

Verified reviewThe location and breakfast were fantastic! The room was huge and had a very nice balcony. The bathroom was clean and updated well. I liked that there was a kitchen with a fridge.
The AC is left off unless you put your key card in the light slot to make the electric work. It took forever to cool down and coming in a night - was impossible to sleep in the heat. That was miserable. Also, the fridge turned off once you pulled your key card out to leave the room. One of the reasons I chose this hotel was for the fitness center. The hotel never reported that it was closed for repair. I really think they have it closed permanently.

Verified reviewThe views from the balcony. WiFi was good. Most staff are very professional and helpful. Especially the girl at check-in and check out and the person who helped bring my bags to the room. He is very pleasant.
When my Girlfriend arrived, I was asked to come down to meet her in the lobby. We have stayed there before and she was already registered in the hotel. The woman who works in the late afternoon said I absolutely needed to come down to the lobby when I asked her. I was in the middle of working and was a bit of an inconvenience. This isn't hotel policy, but rather her request.

The black receptionist is really rude always asking for money or to find something to charge you money about or finding excuses to stop you.
