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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomThe building has plenty of charm with its old fireplaces and spacious rooms. We booked the large double room, as it was the same price as a regular double, and really enjoyed the extra space. The mattress felt a little lumpy and could probably do with being replaced. The WiFi was not good in the room. There’s no AC, but a fan is provided, along with drinking water in the room. The bathroom was a great size, modern, and had excellent hot water and strong water pressure. Breakfast was a typical local style, served with both coffee and juice. There was some traffic noise, but much less than expected. The location is just a few blocks from the main walking street, lined with beautiful buildings and interesting shops.

Beautiful historic house with lovely breakfast area and living room - centrally located in Zona 1. Clean, well appointed, very helpful staff. A great place to relax and exhale. We very much enjoyed our stay here. Good breakfast prepared by our hostess Fernanda. General Manager Sophie was also very helpful with booking of cars to our next destination.

GermanyThe vintage beds were squeaky and the mattresses worn out - the quality of sleep would improve a lot if they changed the old mattresses for new ones!
Beautiful hotel in a historic building - especially nice ambiente from the inside, including a little patio to relax in after exploring Guatemala. A small but delicious breakfast is served in the morning. The center of zona 1 is within walking distance and during the day we felt safe. (Can't say anything about the safety at night as we didn't go out after dark.) The host was friendly and helpful and organized a taxi to an from the airport for us.

United StatesNothing. It’s located in zone 1 so be prepared for a city setting. Which is what we wanted.
Love the contrast between the city street and the serenity within the large front doors. The green garden courtyard, the beautifully buffed floors and the period furniture of this beautifully maintained large home took us back in time. Our room was comfortable and spacious and the shower was nice and hot. We able to walk out the door and be part of the early Easter (Samara Santa) parade. Magical.
