Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

MexicoNothing.
The property has a prime location in Old San Juan. You are steps away from all of the best attractions, bars and restaurants. Easy 23 minute cab ride to and from the airport. The host Ingrid had great communication so I had a perfect contactless check-in. I met some of the other guests during my stay and they were super friendly. One of the best bars in the Caribbean/world is just across the street. I highly recommend Trotamundos!

United StatesThe bathroom is on the lower level, but we knew when we booked. If you want a place to sleep in a great spot in San Juan this is for you.
The hostess is very responsive. Directions were very clear. The location is ideal. We were within a 3 minute walk to everything we wanted to see.

United StatesCan’t do anything about the stairs, but I didn’t have to like them. Only thing I didn’t like was the price—but that is OSJ, so a 9 instead of a 10. This place would be nirvana for anyone headed to La Factoria.
Awesome shower! Mushy mattress that I really liked. Location x 3. Easy access with codes for my very late arrival. Great a/c

United StatesThe location was amazing. Communication with the host was top-tier. The location was located in the heart of San Juan. We enjoyed being right in the middle of everything if you’re looking for a quiet place. You may wanna look elsewhere the noise didn’t bother us at all. We enjoyed the nightlife and when we came up, it felt so good to hear the island so alive. We will definitely be staying here again and recommending it to our friends and family.

United StatesThe facility is dated. Small, no windows in the room. Extremely steep stairs, the room key is on a rusty ring attached to a woman’s hair band. no elevators. The bed is hard and everything just looks dingy. Bathroom is small and I have to sit sideways to use the toilet. Shower water leaked badly and water just ran along the wall instead of coming out of the showehead. Overall a very poor night stay. The building is sandwiched between clubs/bars. Nonstop loud music all night. No amenities in the room, you need to go outside and help yourself with essential.
Close to restaurants and activities, very helpful host.

CanadaThe room was located on the top floor of a three story building with no elevator. This place is hardly fit for human occupation, more of a storage space. It had a bed, a fridge (where a bedside table should be) with a basket on top, a desk, a coat rack and a dustpan and broom in one corner. The room had no windows, no air, no light except for the one overhead light, I had to ask for a nightlight and was given a reading light. The only saving grace of this room was the high ceiling and white walls. The bathroom was across the hallway from this storage/room. The hallway overlooked the rooftops below that looked like garbage storage. I arrived around 4:30'ish and had to wait for almost 15 minutes for someone to come to open the door as the lockbox was jammed. I didn't have much choice at that late stage so I made the best of it. I also didn't want to be too forthright about the state of the place for fear of what might happen to me, being alone in such a sketchy place and having such poor grasp of the language. Therefore I made light of my comments, that the room reminded me of the inside cabin of a cruise ship (in so far as it being so small with no access in of natural light) I was unable to spend much time in this unwelcoming space so I went walking around the area, returning at bedtime. Honestly, had I seen this place in advance, I would not have stayed there for free. I'm curious to know what, if any, are your minimum standards for an accommodation to qualify as hotel accommodation listing on your site. With all of the above, imagine my shock to receive a revised bill adding unjustified charges to my bill. Thank you
The location was convenient to my activities and the bed was surprisingly soft and comfortable.

United StatesHotel was defunct and had been closed for years! What more can I say other than why was this Hotel listed on Booking.com? this must have been a very old listing and never updated by booking. I'll never use this site again!
This Hotel has been closed for years! ~ Dropped off from the San Juan Puerto Rico Airport by Uber, we were left stranded for hours in the middle of this huge city, where we had never been before and knew nothing about! It took us so much walking as we shlepped our huge luggage around trying to find a room as everything in Old San Juan was booked. Being too late in the day to get an Airbnb, VRBO or other alternative stay, my traveling companion found us a modest place with a room. so we had to get another Uber. We had left our home in New Mexico at 2am and were exhausted after traveling 20 hours before getting to a room! Booking Sux!

United StatesThe room had no window. The bed was some foam on a worn out mattress, two people would roll in the middle, expect back pain. The bathroom is across the hall. There is a musty smell probably due to this being an old and poorly behaved building. The whole setup feels very slapped together and unsafe. This is definitely against fire and building code. The cost was also unbelievable expensive at $141 on the offseason.
The location is decent but since we were not partying it didn’t benefit us.
