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...).

El SalvadorCustomer service through WhatsApp and cleaning service was not good. 2 days they cleaned my room without me asking for it, on the 3rd day they didn’t clean so when I asked for it they left me on read and had to ask the reception again, then she answered that they did not clean cus I did not ask for it, to which I responded that the 2 previous days the cleaning crew had gone in my room to clean with no problem, then she said that still they couldn’t clean if I did not ask for it. at the end I didn’t get cleaning 1 day and this is an island where there is dust and sand everywhere so you need cleaning. I also asked for an Iron to which the owners said they will get it for me the next day, when I asked through WhatsApp the lady said that she had given it to me already… to which I responded that I did not have the iron yet and she kept assuring me that it was already in my room, when I was clearly there and the iron was not. she stopped replying and until next day I went to reception and she said that her phone was with no battery. I gave this feedback to the owners in person. I know it’s not a big deal but customer service for me is a must. other than that the place is great!
location is amazing, spacious room, hot water, good internet, comfortable bed, the owners are really sweet and customer service oriented.

United Kingdomnot an issue for us but be aware it’s 4 wooden cabins where the wind and rain can be felt if it’s strong enough. also there’s building works next to you from 10am but again wasnt an issue. lastly be warned the bath rooms not massive so your knees will touch the walls when on loo (male 6 foot). would still recommend this hotel.
amazing location and really friendly owners and staff. very straight forward and they offer prices for tours. wifi works well enough for the island.

PolandThe walls are extremly thin which made us hear every noise from neighbouring rooms not necessarly loud ones. There is no space to chill with friends outside. Our room was very dark and tight.
The place has its climate, all made of wood. Staff was very kind, helpful and caring. Cleaning service was offered each day (we didnt use though).

GermanyWe have recently stayed at the property and were charged twice: allegedly the first transaction never reached the property’s bank, and was supposed to be refunded. We believed and made the 2nd payment. (btw, to pay by card expect to pay a commission). Since 4 days passed, and the refund for the first, allegedly erroneous transaction, was not processed, I have contacted my bank to inquire on the situation. The bank confirmed both transactions were successful and money was received at property’s end. sad :/ unfortunately at this point we can only start the formal chargeback process. would advice the property to allow booking.com to handle the payments for the future, this entire unfortunate experience causes quite some disstress and this is not what one looks for during the vacation.

GermanyThey are apparently constructing a new building right next to the current one. This is not mentioned anywhere, so, as soon as we arrived we asked about this and, as we had doubts, asked if we could shorten our stay since we wanted to have a relaxing time - not right next to a construction site with super thin walls separating us from it. To this the staff told us if we didn't want to stay or to shorten the stay, we would have to do it ourselves (via booking). But she immediately told us that the construction works wouldn't start before 10:00am and that we could sleep in at least until then - it was on that basis that we decided to stay. However, in 2 days we were awaken before 09:00am by the noise of chainsaws and loud hammering. After the first time, we were told that the workers were told to stop; however the same thing happened on the next morning, even earlier than on the previous day. On our last full day, following being once more awakened by construction noises and as we were returning from breakfast, we were offered to be changed to a new room in a different location - which was a nice gesture, but too late and not sufficient to compensate the lies we were told and the entire poor communication. In this sense, we said that such wasn't helpful any longer since we would be leaving the morning after and also we had plans, so no time to re pack and move; we added that we had just wish we were told the truth from the beginning since we could have avoided this situation. To this and to our surprise, after our reply, the staff simply turned her back on us and proceeded to ignore us. So, I wouldn't book this again and would recommend other people not to do so. In any case, if you think about booking this, I would highly recommend you get confirmation that they are no longer performing construction works, so you can enjoy a restful and relaxing time.
They had free water

GermanyBy the pictures and the descriotion you get the impression that this place is quiet and simplistic, while in fact it is located in the noisy center of Holbox in between several bars and rooftop clubs that play loud (live) music every night until way past midnight. The wooden walls are very thin with no sound protection at all (during the day you can also hear the guests in the other rooms speaking). From around 6.00pm it sounds like being in a jazz bar, a techo club and on a mexican wedding at the same time. No chance to sleep, but also impossible to watch a film or focus on a book. The room itself was very basic, completely empty except for the beds, meaning if you use both beds to sleep, you have to keep your stuff on the floor, which might not be a good idea, since you share these cabins with ants and other (larger) tropical insects. Don't see how this is supposed to be a 3-star Hotel. Probably the worst place I have ever booked through booking.com.
