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 reviewGreat location. The room was big and well appointed.
I had a problem with the man who does the night/early morning shift. As I arrived I asked him to reserve a taxi for the next morning. In the afternoon, I went to the desk and asked to make sure the taxi was reserved. Because the man in the morning didn't write anything down, the afternoon clerk double booked me a taxi. The next morning as I came downstairs, the early shift man started yelling at me for booking two taxis, said I had no integrity and demanded that I go outside and cancelled the taxi that had arrived. I refused and he got angrier. I just left. The taxi driver told me they've had problems with that man and he would report it to his boss. Not a pleasant experience

Verified reviewIt was close to the center of the city and shopping stands. N
The beds were horribly uncomfortable, I had to add the extra blanket to the bed to make it slightly comfortable. No AC, just a basic fan. There is no access to an elevator for handicap to get to the second level, which is where all the rooms are.

Verified reviewIt was close to the main shopping and dining areas.
The beds were horrible, so uncomfortable you couldn't fall asleep. Roof had rotting wood, no air-conditioned rooms, or elevator, which a member of my family is handicapped and can hardly walk.

Verified reviewLocation is very centrical. Receptionists are very attentive
It is horribly noisy area. Clowns on a main square until 10.30pm with such a loud music that you can’t sleep even with window doors shut. Or it could be a black waters truck doing the job at 2am… you name it.

Verified reviewStaff was friendly & helpful. Balcony room was nice & spacious. Simple but clean. Hotel is a lovely old hacienda like house. Convenient location near the Zocalo.
It can be noisy in the evening, specially if someone is performing with a loud speaker, even with the window closed the noise comes in (from 8pm - 11pm). The place does seem a bit old. Hot water takes 10mins to come through. The bed is a bit hard.

Verified reviewLocation is one of the best in Oaxaca. Beds are relatively comfortable. Clean facilities.
Rooms are very sparse. If you have a balcony over the zocalo you could chill in your room otherwise they are not that comfortable. Day staff was wonderful. Night staff grumpy and sort of rude if you come in after 11pm.
