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.).

The walls are a little fin so you can hear people in other rooms and outside at times.
Lovely small property a little walk out the main town area. Adriana and her daughter are very nice and welcoming. Neither spoke any English but we always managed to communicate well with my little Spanish and translate apps. The place is small but has what you need there. A shop and a bakery are very close by and walking into town takes 15-20 mins depending on your route and where you are going.

It would be great if there are a bit more bowls and culteries in the kitchen. There are no sign of the posada in the front, so we missed it the first time we arrived. But it’s not a big deal, really!
Great place to stay! Well located, walking distance from everywhere (airport, city center, port), many restaurants and supermarkets nearby. We ended up staying here twice during our whole stay in San Andres, because it’s very convenient. The small room is indeed quite small - but it’s comfortable as we were mostly outside anyway. However, Adriana was superkind of giving us the another room on our second stay, which was significantly bigger. She also let us borrow snorkeling gear (and a pair of beach shoes) for free. We booked the VIP Tour with them, they gave us good price and drop us off at the port. The room was clean, AC and wifi worked very well. Every room is equiped with a mini-fridge. There’s small kitchen good enough to prepare breakfast and simple meal. Somehow we also believe it’s the best place to rent vehicles as Juan meticulously maintained them everyday! Super recommended!

Room are a bit small if you need the bedroom for anything but rest. Common space has two tables and 4-5 stools and may become crammed to prepare food or breakfast.
This is a cool budget hotel, that gives you a very clean room, a comfortable bed with air con, fan, flat screen tv, fridge and ensuite bathroom with a shower. It has all the essential of an hotel at the price of an hostel! You have also a nice area where to prepare your meal with a gas hob and a microwave and essential kitchen stuff (you have to buy yourself the food) a next door big supermarket (very handy) a beautiful pub resturant nearby (5 star food, it is called 5 sabores I believe). The best plus are the landlords, who are very kind and helpful with every need (from renting a bike to taxi service). Center of the town is around 10-15 min walking as it is the sprat beach and the Caribbean sea

My concern is not about the Posada; it pertains to the island's infrastructure. What I didn't like was the abundance of garbage on the streets, people riding in the road without proper traffic safety, and tourist places that seemed almost abandoned. Additionally, many tourists don't have the habit of disposing of their garbage in the right place, contributing to the island appearing a bit dirty
What I enjoyed the most was the peacefulness of my bedroom and the fact that the Posada was well-located in a strategic point where we could easily walk to the main beach, shopping areas, and various activity points. Adriana and Juan were wonderful hosts, very kind. It was a nice experience.

The place is nice and quiet. The hosts are kind and respond to all questions very quick. The room is nice. The ac is a little bit hidden over the fridge and not directly over the bed which I did really like. It's easy to walk from the airport to the Posada and it has a kitchen in case you want to make breakfast or dinner.

Adrianna and Juan Carlos are lovely hosts who really go above and beyond for their guests! The entire property as well as my room were very clean and well-organised. You can book tours or rent a car directly at the Posada and although it's not located directly in the city centre, it's only a short walk away. There is strong wifi as well as good a/c in the rooms.

It’s really far from the main beach, restaurants and amenities - around 40 minutes. Adriana was very efficient but I think could have given me better advice about things to do when I first arrived. I didn’t enjoy my stay in San Andres very much and definitely won’t be returning.
It was clean and safe.
