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 KingdomFantastic property in a great location. Staff were excellent and super attentive with very good comms (including WhatsApp chat). Room was beautiful and we had the one with the private terrace which was lovely. Breakfast was excellent - loads of options and all delicious. Having the afternoon drinks and tapas options was a really nice touch. We loved this place and the only downside was having to leave.

AustraliaWe stayed in the Madera room, near the main road. The window faced the street which was noisy and there was no way to open it for ventilation. We had to keep the aircon on to have some ventilation.
We loved our stay at Hotel Materia. The set up was beautiful and private. Staff were really friendly and helpful. They helped me organising Taxi, laundry service and returning a precious shirt I forgot in the room.

United StatesEverything was perfect
Like everything else in Oaxaca, hidden behind a door is a beautiful property that you would never know existed. We had the room with the extended patio and it's one of the most beautiful rooms I've ever stayed, not for its size but for its character. The breakfast offered every morning was amazing and the staff were excellent as well. I couldn't recommend this room and hotel more than I can, it was the highlight of my trip!

IrelandThe tap in our room needed to be fixed but that’s only a minor problem.
Very easy check in. Great location and shower and a fabulous breakfast, they keep in contact with you via watsapp and you can put your food order in the message and they delivery it to you, same goes for a taxi, you can just text the person in charge and they will order one straight away for you. All makes for a very comfortable and relaxing stay. If I would stay again i would book the larger room … it looked amazing

The rooms were clean with outdoor space (we had a loveseat, table and chairs for eating, hammock, and extra seating), hotel staff was friendly, hospitable, and very helpful ensuring that we ordered breakfast, called taxis for us, sent our clothes out for laundry, etc making us feel even more at home. There were small touches that contributed to our experience, in addition to comfortable beds, consistent hot water, great water pressure, and the hotel’s walkable location. We’ll definitely return!

United KingdomIf I’m nit picking, given it is a hot climate, I expect bugs but the room door to the courtyard has an unnecessary big gap which could be closed off.
The rooms are a good size and it was an easy location to everything we wanted to see.
