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 StatesThere is no reception and nobody there for check-in. I didn't know where is my room and how to find the key. They sent me the code to open a front door, but after entering the property everything else was confusing. The cleaning ladies don't speak English, but with Google translate, we figured it out and they gave me a room and a key. The wifi was slow sometimes and you need to update the connection every 10-15 min for a better signal. I preferred to not work from the hotel and just used local restaurants wifi. The place is very noisy. You can hear each car passing the street, every morning I woke up because the workers come and they talked loudly. And there is a neighbor's dog who constantly whines. Heartbreaking sound. Very good acoustic there.
The location is excellent, close to the center and many restaurants around. Restaurants Humar and the best pizza in Oaxaca at Sicilia pizza y pasta are my top food choices. The water was always hot and with good pressure. Safe place with a nice design. They have a well-equipped shared kitchen. There's no room for the luggage, but you can live it just under the stairs after check out. I had a night bus and they allowed me to live my backpack there till I need. I appreciate it! Close to the bus terminal.

MexicoI requested to pay in cash on arrival, which was confirmed via the chat. However the money was taken from my account before arrival. There was a bit of noise at night from neighborhood dogs, and loud music from somewhere close by. Something to note if you’re a light sleeper like me. Taxis and tour guides seem to have a problem coming to the place. Not sure why? I needed to be dropped off/picked up on the corner.
An excellent stay. The maid and gardener were extremely welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. The internet was good, so I could work. Everything was of a high standard. Very clean in deed. Communication was good via the chat. Eg. getting the codes for the main door and bedroom. The fan in the room worked adequately. There was an iron available and extra bits and pieces. The main square is a ten-minute walk, mostly on the flat.

United StatesWhile our room was on the top floor and had 2 windows, the fan was not really adequate in May. It would be helpful if they had air conditioning units in each room.
This is a new hostel which is adequate and clean. The room was a good size and bed comfortable but the bathroom was very small. It is in a quiet neighborhood closer to the Zocalo than the Cathedral but still within walking distance of everything. It was nice to have a small shared kitchen and the very pleasant cleaning lady let us hand wash our laundry and hang it on the roof which was very helpful.

United StatesThere is no staff to assist with check-in. You are supposed to receive codes for the door locks to check in, but we never received any of this information. Messages through Booking.com went unanswered and no one ever answered the phone number given. Luckily the cleaning staff was there when we arrived to give us the door codes and they were friendly and helpful, but oftentimes there is no one there to assist you. We stayed for 2 nights and our room was not cleaned during our stay - not sure if this is normal but we had to go out to buy toilet paper because there was no one to ask for more. We might have extended our stay but no one ever answered the phone, so we found another place.
The place was sparkling clean with a nice shared kitchen and refrigerator. Everything spotless. Nice shared terrace with tables to enjoy the fresh air. Wifi was fast and worked well. Comfortable bed and decent sized room. Location was just a few minutes walk from the center and very quiet.

United StatesThe shower had no water for the 2 days we were there. Reception was useless. Nobody answered out call or messages about this. Luckily the maid let us use the shower in an unoccupied room. I now see reviews about this from 2024 and still the problem persists. Not feeling like the owners care much!
No breakfast offered to us. There is a community kitchen available. Cute place, not far from center.

CanadaSometimes there was no hot water in the shower; uncomfortable bed
A pretty good value for what you get and the location. However, when you arrive, it can be confusing as they do not have a sign outside, and the alley looks bit sketchy at first. Make sure they send you the access code since they had forgotten to send us ours, and the reception isn’t open for 24 hours. We had to knock on the gate and wait for a few minutes for them to open it. However, the staff were kind enough to change our room after we reported to them that there was a lot of noise coming from the generator beside our room. The little kitchen can also come in handy.

We ended up, after midnight, finding another hotel - for twice the price. I would like to complain but, apparently need a property i.d. (it's not the property name). Not happy, at all.

United KingdomUnfortunately our first few days were ruined by other guests shouting, singing, slamming doors etc late at night from 10pm - 2am and then again as early as 6am. Not entirely the hotel's fault but at no point did they ask them to be quiet without our complaints despite their own rules. Even if you don't have guests from hell, the doors/walls don't block much sound at all and you can hear even quiet conversation. The shower in our room was also the worst we've used since being in Mexico - awful water pressure, impossible to get the temperature to be anything other than really hot or cold, and worst of all during our whole stay would intermittently cut out in the middle of our showers and refuse to come back on without waiting another 5-10 minutes. A lamp beside the bed would also be good to avoided having the main light on before bed.
The room itself was great and a very comfy bed. Great location and could walk everywhere we wanted in the city very easily. Kitchen was great too and well stocked with bottled water always available. Staff were really kind and were offered to book us a taxi when we left. WiFi was good but slightly intermittent
