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 is perfect - very close to the major dining/entertainment areas but tucked away just enough to be very quiet at night. The staff was very accomodating and friendly.
It's a little bit pricey by comparison to some others nearby, but really the nice staff and location made up for that. I would recommend staying here.

Verified reviewWe enjoyed this place. It was an old place and was probably very grand years ago but it still maintained it's sense of grandeur. It was very clean, relaxing, peaceful and quiet, and easily within walking distance of the main sights. The staff were great, very helpful and obliging. And there was a pool in the middle of the inner courtyard.
I missed not having a fridge.

Verified reviewThe location is great. Some of the staff are nice - they are compensating for a terrible manager.

Verified reviewIt is well located.
With a little love this place could be fantastic. It has the feeling of not being cared for…the parking lot is a dirty, bumpy very underwhelming introduction, furniture placement in the room is cramped and awkward, no artful touches that could have made all the difference. TVs don’t really work, fridge was left asunder and unplugged in, unstocked minifridge, two bottles of water left for five people…small details that just add up to an overall lack of attention to detail which made this underwhelming. I would say this property is a 3-star. I stay here again, but it’s too bad…with a little investment it could be so much more.

Verified reviewThe staff was excellent-friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and cooked to order. Beds were comfortable and the room was well cleaned and stocked every day. The grounds are lovely.
There wasn't much of a lunch menu-not sure if they are re-doing the kitchen. It's a bit of a walk to many attractions, but the front desk always got a cab for us when we needed one.

Verified reviewThe location and parking were very convenient. The grounds and lobby are nice.
Its time for the bed covers to be replaced and invest in new bedding. A new makeover in the rooms would make them more appealing.

Verified reviewLocated in the central area of the city. The inner courtyard was nice and the colonial architecture were kept in a good shape.
The rooms haven’t been renovated in years and we even had a 🪳 in our bathroom. The food in the restaurant was really bad.

Rooms musty. Rooms large but dated.Nobody in dining area so we did not eat here.

Verified reviewIt was in walking distance to the old city, as well as Paseo Montejo. The rooms were spacious with good lighting.
The bathroom was old and dinghy. Mold around the faucet and the shower curtain. No hot water one night as the wind blew out the pilot on the boiler - the explanation to turn on the shower faucet and let the water run was a joke - ran out ot water! Took over 2 hours before there was hot water.
