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 reviewfireplace in room, thermal waters
the type of room offered was different than what we booked online. We had to argue with the management for 30 minutes to get what we booked, even though we looked up the room online and it was still available. We found out the next day that we were one of the only guests at the hotel. Not sure due to the language difference but it felt like they were trying to get us to pay more for the room we originally booked. We could have been wrong but it did not make us feel like valued guests.

Verified reviewClean, well run, friendly staff.
Too many dogs outside and loud. Noise levels of neighbors and their music was too loud during quiet hours.

Verified reviewLocation. Pretty. Comfortable bed.
Charged Booking commission. Checkin delayed to 14.00 instead of advertised 12.00hrs. Door lock broken so moved rooms. No breakfast until 8.30am - too late for trips. Packed lunch - stale bread. Ill equipped. Distracted host. None of the following: air con, wardrobe or shelves for clothes, secure place for valuables, drinking glasses, toilet roll holder, place to put toilet requisites except over cistern, clean bin in bedroom, hot water in handbasin. Overall accumulation of nuisance aspects staying here for 3 days. Pity. It’s comfortable to sleep and is in a good location.

Verified reviewThe location was close to town and the bus stop to Quito is less than 10min walking distance. The staff were so warm and accommodating. I didn't want to leave. The room was as per described in the description. The TV has Netflix already set up so you can enjoy some entertainment. This came in handy for me as the only day I had for activities was a wet one, so I stayed in and loved every minute. Not sure what previous people were complaining about with the breakfast. It was a good balanced breakfast enough to keep me full all day and the juice was fresh made. I didn't like egg yolks and the staff went out of their way to make my eggs differently the next morning. I honestly don't have anything negative to say about the accommodation. It is a shame I didn't get to try the pool.

Verified reviewGreat location in Mindo, walking distance from the main square. Very comfortable rooms and friendly staff. Definitely value for money.
1) Breaskfast is served from 8 am, which I find late. However, I was provided fruit, juice, and bread to take with me whenever I had to leave the hotel early, for example, on a birding tour departing at 5 a.m. 2) I was initially in a room where the water from the shower would go out of the bathroom as the shower floor was level with the bathroom floor. Then, I was offered a much nicer room with spectacular views. However, this time, the shower struggled to get hot water. Twice, I had to leave the hotel without showering.

Verified reviewThe place is better than what we expected. Cocktails and breakfast were delicious. The small pool with hot water was a pleasant surprise.
They charged us the Booking commission at check-in. That is something between them and Booking that should not be charged to the guest. In our haste we let it be. Keep this in mind and ask about it before booking.

Verified reviewThe onsite manager and staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful during my stay. They are definitely Posada de Mindo's greatest asset. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Staff assisted me with tours.
Other guests were blasting music poolside, and had to shout over the music to be heard. The noise carried up into my room, encroaching on my quiet enjoyment of the hotel. The manager did shut down the party so that the other hotel guests could rest.

Verified reviewOutstanding hosts, wonderful food. Having the pool and hot tub was an added bonus. The coconut rimmed Pina Colada is the star. Best guacamole and masa fried plantains. Great breakfast with wonderful coffee and freshly made juice. The bed was firm but very comfortable. Lovely pillows for sleeping. The wifi was very good. Lots of seating and even a hammock. Close to the square and to the Yellow House nature trails. Music played nightly in the pool/bar area until around 10-11 at night, and even though we went to bed early, the music was happy and didn't stop us from falling right to sleep. Highly recommend
The outdoor hallway lights make it feel like daylight in the room even late at night. Maybe add some black out curtains? We still slept well,but it could be a problem for someone who cannot sleep unless it's very dark.
