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.).

NetherlandsThe full breakfast is only available as of 8h30, but many of the activities start as of 8h30, it would be great if breakfast could be one hour earlier.
Super nice place, hidden in the north of Oaxaca, very close to all sights - we did everything by foot. There is always somebody present, and they are always willing to help you! The tour they recommended was also worth it!

United StatesThe property was close to the center of town and within walking distance for all the activities we did. It was clean, the staff were helpful and always pleasant. Breakfast in the morning was super great…served at a large table family style. Also, I loved that there was filtered water available instead of buying plastic bottle each day.

AustraliaWhen you check in you get a rather large email with their Terms & Conditions and they’re not afraid to use them. We had an unfortunate incident (my wife became quite sick) and unfortunately spoiled a towel, although we wouldn’t have mind paying for it, almost (USD$35) $700 pesos seemed excessive given the towels are let’s say very well used! We loved our room but note that the description mentions a patio, and there wasn’t one.
Very nice staff and location

United StatesConstruction happening next door was sometimes loud in the mornings and afternoons, but not while sleeping. There are also dogs in the neighborhood that bark at night, but nothing a white noise app couldn't drown out. The doors to the rooms are sliding glass, so when people are walking in the hallway, it can be a bit noisy.
The rooms are very clean and tended to multiple times a day. The breakfast is delicious - several cold options and then a hot Mexican breakfast prepared to order each day. The staff is super nice and helpful. The location is excellent in the Xochimilco area. Very cute property with only 5 rooms, so the attention to detail and kind service are especially noteworthy.

United StatesConstruction was beginning for a new store next door. Luckily the construction was done while we weren’t in our room and the noise wasn’t too bad.
The ambiance is wonderful, very relaxing with beautiful Oaxacan art everywhere. The staff were amazing and the breakfast (order the hot dish) was delicious.

United KingdomCouldn't really fault anything, they had building work going on next door, which was only really noisy during the day and we were given treats to apologise!
The location of Casa Carlota was just perfect, on a quiet street but a really close walk into the main town area. We felt very safe and our room had everything we needed. The bed was HUGE and super comfy. Breakfast was a perfect mix of yoghurt/fruit & cereal with Mexican cooked delights - all very tasty and authentic. The roof terrace was lovely and breezy, perfect for a cold beer. The staff are super kind and very helpful.

United StatesWe absolutely loved the breakfast but it’s not served until 8:30 so not good for an early start on the day. They let you know you may have issues finding it if you are using Google Maps. We didn’t have issues but will point out their sign is very tastefully low key. The entryway has a metal gate and a wooden gate. For security you reach through the metal gate to ring a doorbell and the staff will let you in 24/7. We didn’t dislike this but wanted to point this out as it’s not common around the world.
This hotel has only 5 rooms so the level of personal service is extremely high. Our main contact was Dulce who was sweet as can be in addition to being fluent in English and very knowledgeable about how to get where you want to go. She arranged taxis for us for less than advertised here on Bookings.com. We walked almost everywhere as the location is a 15min walk to Zocalo, and on the street with the aqueduct which adds to the beauty. The room was clean, you have your own bathroom, coffee maker, bottled water, safe and hair dryer. Not a huge room but like most hotels they have a very comfortable rooftop area to lounge and watch the sunsets. Breakfast was fantastic and held us for most of the day. Fruit, cereals, yogurt, toast, sweet bread plus each morning they offer a hot entree made to order so it’s served piping hot. You will eat family style as all the guests are seated on possibly the largest table you will ever eat on made from one slab of wood. It is beautiful. We highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

United StatesThere was construction going on next door during the day but the noise was over by 6 pm so it didn’t bother us. Never heard it in the morning so they must have started after we left for the day.
Very nice small (5) room B and B which as very, very clean. The staff was extremely helpful. They arranged a cab to pick us up at the airport and when our flight was delayed and then canceled til the next day they arranged for the cab to be rescheduled for us. We didn’t need it but they offered to book some day trips for us. A nice breakfast is provided.
