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 reviewAbsolutely nothing. The only thing that could have been good was the view, but even that was ruined by the amount of seaweed (sargassum) that they couldn’t clean. What didn’t you like about the hotel? The staff was awful, unhelpful, and constantly negative. The building is old and run-down. Service was dismissive, and they couldn’t even provide cold beer — only warm ones. Overall, it was a disgraceful experience that almost ruined my vacation.
Hotel Cristal should be called “Hotel No.” From the moment you arrive, everything is a flat no. Any request — big or small — was refused. The staff treated us as if we were begging for shelter, not paying guests. The most unbelievable part: they didn’t even have cold beer. They served us the warm ones they had left, because that’s all they could offer. In Cancún, of all places, something so basic shouldn’t be an issue. The whole experience was terrible and almost ruined my vacation. After seven years of not visiting Mexico, it was heartbreaking to come back to such a disappointment. Even worse, it was my partner’s first time in Mexico — and such a disgrace to be faced with this kind of low-class service. Nowhere else in the world have we ever been treated in such a dismissive and deplorable way. This hotel is the perfect example of how not to treat travelers.

Verified reviewGreat location just at the beach, beautiful views, good facilities at beach. Polite staff who all spoke English at some level.
Air conditioning was horribly loud, too loud to sleep in. If it was turned off for the night (which was a must to sleep), the room got hot and humid by the morning. Loud music from nearby night club until about 1 pm.

Verified reviewLove the location & view of the sea.
We did not like the food. The pool closes very early and this time around certain waiters outside has a bit of an attitude. The floors are also VERY slippery outside. I feel twice in the same day! One of the lady fell as well and a worker said NOTHING to her. She fell way worse than I did. The room we that we booked was supposed to come with a robe, slippers and wine bottle according to booking.com when our room was ready.. none of that there. I had to call the front desk and the only thing they gave us was a bottle of champagne. I had also called a while a go before staying for them to make a note that we were staying for our honeymoon as I see on instagram how lovely they decorate the room. Maybe it’s just for advertising. We love and have been going every year for 3 years next year we will not be staying at this hotel.
Dear guest, First of all, thank you for choosing to stay with us again for such a special occasion as your honeymoon. We are deeply sorry that this time your experience did not meet your expectations, and we apologize for the inconveniences you mentioned. We appreciate your kind words about our location and ocean view. However, we take very seriously your feedback regarding the food, pool hours, attitude of some staff members, and safety concerns with the slippery floors. We also regret that the special touches expected for your honeymoon were not properly delivered. Your comments have been shared with the relevant teams to address and improve these areas. Your loyalty over the years means a lot to us, and we hope to regain your trust in the future and provide you with a memorable stay. Monserrat E-concierge

Verified reviewThe staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, kind, and sweet. Everyone at the hotel seemed genuinely interested in our enjoyment, comfort, and experience. They went out of their way to handle several requests around food allergies with the upmost kindness. The location is superb - the ocean view from the balcony is exceptionally rich in color and depth, it was absolutely breathtaking! I really can't put into words how beautiful the beachfront is at this vantage point.
There were some very minor maintenance items in the room and at the hotel, but for the price/value it was easy to ignore.
Dear Bradford, Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for your enthusiastic recommendation. We’re thrilled to know you enjoyed the ocean view, our location, and above all, the warm and attentive service provided by our team. It means a great deal to us to hear that our staff made you feel genuinely cared for — that is always our goal. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the minor maintenance details. We are continuously working to improve our facilities while maintaining excellent value for our guests. It would be a true pleasure to welcome you back. This will always be your home by the sea.
