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 and the views were great. A small boutique hotel with a few rooms. The lady who Manage the breakfast was very kind.
Very low and sometimes no internet or phone carrier connection. Bad check in process. The main gate of the hotel was closed and locked and nobody was there to receive us. With NO connection to call anybody!!!
Dear Gaston, Thank you for your stay at La Almendra y El Gitano. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed your time with us. With regard to the issue of connectivity, the fact is that due to the area´s unique terrain -being located in the heart of a natural park- there is very limited network coverage. However, this matter is expected to be resolved shortly. Best wishes, Javier Altieri Manager

Verified reviewThe views and pool area were perfect for a tranquil stay
Even though it was remote the hotel offered nothing other than breakfast So once you’d eaten that you needed to be prepared Late check-in means very little to no communication

Verified reviewThe place is remote with nothing nearby but this makes it very peaceful and pleasant. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was very nice and there was a bar available which was nice. We had a room with jacuzzi and it was great to just sit in there and look through the picture window at the scenery. We went to two restaurants in Agua Armarga and both were really good food and great value for money
Dear David, thank you so very much for this great review. Looking forward to seeing you once again at our venue!! Best regards, Javier Altieri Manager

Verified reviewA very nice breakfast in the room by reception with a pleasant view.
The quality of the staff was variable. One receptionist was excellent, very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. But the other (at our check in) was very poor or perhaps poorly trained - no code given to us for the gate so we were locked out the following day, no wi fi code given to us, and no description of the lay out of the property. In a property which is as spread out as this you need to get a full description at check in or else plenty of detail in the documents in the rooms (there is no information provided at all in the rooms).
