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 reviewWaiters were really nice. Garden was well maintained.
Rooms were bad, sewer smell in bathrooms. Drinks were watered down, and food was limited specifically in the mornings. WiFi only in certain areas, beds were very uncomfortable, no safe boxes in certain rooms, windows in bathrooms wouldn’t lock properly. Property seems to care more about their garden than updating the rooms, a run-down hotel.

Verified reviewIt is very close to the marina and the stores and the airport. This is the main reason why we chose this hotel.
Not all rooms are the same. We arrived in room 216. It was very old, dirty looking, and strange sounds came out of the bathroom all day. After having maintenance look and unable to fix the issue, we got moved to room 425. Although this room was more modern, it was smaller than our previous room. Food: We opted for the all inclusive package. It was not worth the added expense. Every meal was basically the same with a few new items for each meal. It also felt that they just kept cooking the same leftovers for the next meal. Save your money and eat out. It is rated as a 4 star hotel, but I wouldn't go above 3 and that's being generous.

Verified reviewThe property was in a good location with food places. Staff was friendly.
WiFi did not work. For the last two days we were without tv. When room was cleaned no towels were replaced. Had to change rooms due to couch being dirty and sunken in. The room smelled like mildew and fresh paint. Food could have been better and wished it was a bigger selection.

Verified reviewI really like the location at the Marina. It is also close to the airport, a 30 minute walk (Yes I did it), or a 10 to 15 minute drive. The rooms are clean and the sheets fresh. The bathroom was very clean. The balcony was very big, approximately 5m x 2.5m or 16' x 8'. It was facing the pool, the marina and boardwalk. The pool is very nice as well. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The front desk staff and restaurant staff also speak English. I can get by most of the time with my limited Spanish, but it is nice to have a back up when I am stumped. Overall I can say that the hotel, grounds, and rooms are very well kept. There are also about 20 restaurants all along the boardwalk of the Marina. There are 3 convenience stores that I found, and too many pharmacies to count. If you are adventurous there is a Walmart and Sam's Club a 30 minute walk away, or a 10 minute Uber or Taxi ride.
Ok, the WiFi was horrible. I have stayed there two times and the internet is not great. It buffers frequently or just kicks you off. Then other times it works very well for short periods. This happened at different times of day and night, so not really during specific times. Now I must say that both stays I was situated at the far end of the hotel, rooms farthest from the front desk. I don't know where the router is located, but by my results I would have to say that it isn't near the end of the hotel where I was. I didn't ask for the all inclusive meal plan. First of all I find that the food there is quite average. Secondly on the boardwalk there are approximately 20 restaurants, mas ó menos. This is just a bit of a nit pick, but the hotel is showing it's age. Just keep in mind that this isn't a 5 star mega resort, but a very nice one in a great location and you should have a great time staying there.

Verified reviewGreat location, spacious bright room overlooking the pool. Very friendly, attentive staff
Sofa in room looked dirty and old TV did not work most of the time. We did report it and they were very quick to send someone to fix, but the problem persisted and in the end decided not to keep asking for repair on a daily basis. Very weak Internet signal in room. Had to go to reception to get signal Would be nice to have coffee station in room
