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 KingdomVery minor things but it would make a difference. They don't give a separate soap so you need to use shower gel. Also an extra small towel for drying hands would be great. Hopefully these little changes can be implemented!
Very friendly staff and close location to Parque de los Novios where you can find lots of restaurants and nightlife. On the other hand even closer to the sea and the beach which you can see from the terrace where the breakfast is served. Free coffee offered at the reception. There's only cold water but that's a standard on Caribbean coast. Typical breakfast (eggs, toast or arepa, fruit bowl, juice or water, coffee).

Panamano hot water, our room on the first floor was close to the lobby, but all night and day we could hear everyone that passed by or was talking in the lobby, asi if they were right there. felt as if there was not much privacy.
location was excellent, right in between restaurant and bar area, and the marina. perfect walking distance to both areas. Breakfast was good, room is small but comfortable.

JapanI would have felt miserable if I had stayed in the first dark room. There was noise from street until 2 am. Single glazed windows didn’t close completely. If they change this with better insulation, noise can be reduced significantly. I didn’t mind the noise too much because I was relaxed in any case.
I booked a least expensive room. The first room I got was a dark small room without a window on the first floor (more precisely it has a window with a screen and when I opened the screen there is a wall from the next building a meter apart). So I asked the receptionist if I can get a better room then he gave me a room with a window facing the street on the second floor which was very nice, with a lot of sunlight. Location is very good, 1 block from the beach and 2 blocks (enough separation) from noisy parque de novios.

United StatesNot having heated showers - but I understand that's relatively normal in Colombia. Makes sense since it's so hot there. I eventually adjusted and by the end I didn't even mind. It felt refreshing from the heat.
Staff was super helpful and so nice. I don't know spanish and they did a great job working through the communication with me. The location was perfect - steps away from the water front street, night life, shops, restaurants, etc. The air conditioning worked great. My reservation came with breakfast and it was hearty and delicious. Can't beat the price.

The location is perfect as is in the middle of the historical part, where the main squares are and the gold museum, also few minutes away from the beach.

Excellent location, very close to the beach, 1 block away (streets in Santa Marta are very small 1 block is not a big thing) everything is close to the hotel; markets, stores, restaurants (great variety of food options: Hamburgers Fries, pizzas -North American Food-, Arabian food (delicious shawarmas😋) Italian food and of course Sea Food - Local Restaurants- streets are very secure, a lot of police officers in the area, the staff of the hotel is very friendly and Kind, breakfast was included; (decent breakfast) Air Conditioned was THE BEST OF THE BEST!
