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 facility is excellent and so quiet with a beautiful view of the lake. Everyone was so friendly and helpful every time we had a question. The room itself was spacious with lots of shelving, a ceiling fan, and a/c. The shared kitchen was so useful too. We would gladly stay here again!
No complaints!

Verified reviewGood location and friendly staff. Nice little patio out the back to sit in the morning and watch the little boats pass by. Reasonable value for money and generally clean. Although the towels and bedsheets were a bit scratchy. The communal kitchen and cold filtered water was a nice touch.
Our double room was basic and quite dated inside, it also smelled a bit damp and mouldy. There was no drain cover on the shower and we found a large cockroach in the bathroom on our first night. Assume it came up the drain!

Verified reviewGood, quiet location on flores island. The guys working recepción were helpul with booking tour to tikal and a taxi.
They would not accept card payment when i arrived even though I booked through booking.com and was told card payments were fine. The room was damp and had mold growing on the walls. There was no window in the room to outside for fresh air. The bed was broken and uncomfortable, it was lower on one side than the other. The 'suicide shower' was cold and there was no hot water. There were no blankets or sheets on the beds, just one thin bedspread, it was cold. The internet kept dropping out, was patchy and slow. This hotel needs modernising, updating and improving.

Verified reviewNice location at the water front
Unfortunately we only got a room without a window. You can hear everything from the hotel lobby, cos the walls are very thin. The staff was unfriendly. In general it’s just way too expensive for what you get.

Verified reviewWe had booked two rooms for the family and received two inside, dark rooms originally. After asking at the reception if we could get a room with a window, we were able to change to 1 large room with windows all around, great views and a balcony. A beautiful room. This room accommodated all of us and it was lovely! So make sure you ask for or pay the little difference so you can get a room with windows outside.
When showering, the water came all over the bathroom floor.

Verified reviewNice location at the top of Flores island. The view from the back of the property over the lake was great. The room was comfortable and had everything that you would need. Staff were friendly helping us when we first arrived and also allowing us to store our bags whilst we visited Tikal during the day before moving on. Price was good value for Flores.
Showers were cold but not uncommon for Guatemala. WiFi was inconsistent in the room but worked fine in the hallways
