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...).

CanadaWi-fi was spotty as the reviews indicated. But not that bad, definitely not a deal breaker.
Very relaxed and chill. Clean and quiet, off the main tourist area but a 5 min walk to beach. Close to the ferry also. The grounds are well taken care of. Staff is great!!

United KingdomThe kitchen wasn't great, not very well equipped with cooking equipment or tableware.
The accommodation was spread out around a large garden area with hammocks, tables and chairs. My room was large and the bathroom was fine. Staff were helpful when I messed up the code for the room safe and found me an extra bedcover when there was unseasonably cold weather. Location was good, right on the edge of town, but only a shirt walk in and to the beach and walkable to the ferry.

Amazing stay here in Holbox. The place is in the center, but slightly outside of the busy zone so it feels perfectly relaxing. 5min from the beach. Holbox is soooo good. The room are very nice and clean, the outside area is very chill and beautiful and the shared kitchen is perfect. Thanks to the ladies that work here, you are so kind <3

NetherlandsThe bathroom, while private for our use, is located away from the room in a “camping” style which takes some getting used to.

United KingdomUpkeep of the kitchen could be better - lacking basic amenities like oil, pepper, coffee. The bathroom is a walk from the room so annoying if you need it during the night
Lovely room, excellent presentation and details in room. Desk in room. Don’t believe reviews about bad wifi - they may have changed this cos wifi was great, did video calls with no issue. Nice outdoor space. Staff exceptionally great - left my new headphones in the room and they let me know and have been working with me via WhatsApp to find a solution - really going above and beyond and could not be more grateful 🧡

United StatesWe had two rooms and one room had scalding hot water in shower that was hard to control but we got it too cool down enough to shower. The other room had cold water the first night. The shower heads were old but they worked good enough even for my long hair. The hotel was very quiet but we did hear one rooster a few times at night during our stay. Nothing major. I didn't even need ear plugs and we were there for New Years.
The hostel property is very lovely, quiet, and relaxing. There were lots of hammocks with shade and lounge chairs and paintings and tropical plants. Free water to fill bottles, staff was friendly, rooms were clean (there was one cockroach in the shower though), beds were comfy enough. The location is great; very walkable to the ferry and to the beach and restaurants. The price was great.

CanadaWould be nice to have somewhere in the room or just outside to hang towels and swimwear. Other than that I felt like everything was as expected or better.
Location is great, just off the main road and easy to get to the beach and main square. Our room was super clean and had a little fridge. Bathroom was also clean and we got good hot water although didn't really need it because cold showers were preferable. Kitchen was well equipped with what we needed.

CanadaIt is a bit overpriced for what it is. However, Holbox is an expensive place so it is to be somewhat expected. As other reviews have mentioned there are many dogs in the neighborhood that sometimes bark during the night, but with the A/C and fan inside the room you can barley hear them.
I had a lovely time at this hostel. The location is great, close to the ferry and main town but in a quiet area. The property is well maintained and clean. The external private bathroom is just a short walk away and is well lit at night. Great A/C in the room. It was nice to be able to use the shared kitchen, which was kept clean and organized. I would stay again!
