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...).

United StatesGood A/C. Good size room with comfortable beds (2, I only used 1). The outdoor kitchen looked nice and but I didn’t use it. Good location, short walk to the central square. The owner was very nice. But... the Wifi was slow, shower drippy, couldn’t wash my hair but I only stayed for 10 hours before my night bus so that didn't bother me much… Overall, it was a good value for what I needed. (Regarding several people who complained how the room is too small for "4 adults with 4 big backpacks". Really! Well, most rooms would be! 🤣 For the price point, wouldn't it make more sense to get 2 rooms instead of squeezing (yourself and your budget) then making (unfair) complaints afterwards?!)

CanadaI felt it wasn’t safe at night walking back to the hotel. It’s a bit far from downtown. There are a lot of dark streets on our way back. Have to say that The police was present. The shower was spitting, not sure I could have washed my long hair. And I did not had any hot water, which dis not bother me so much as It was hot.
It was clean, calm and easy to find. Good value. Very confortable bed. The a/c was perfect. Haven’t used the tv, internet was acceptable. Was able to watch streaming channel on y iPad.

FranceThe room for 5 people is smaller than the 25 m2 annouced (more like 17 m2). It's definitely too small for 4 adults. The internet connection was bad (it did not allow to make a reservation on booking for example). Be aware that you cannot put toilet paper in the toilet (i don't know if all hotels in the city are this way)
Located in the city center area. There is a small kitchen outside. The owner is nice.

CanadaNot a fan of the opaque doors - you can hear every word spoken in the passageway. This is not a 'dislike' and not a problem for me, but a note that it is one of the many places where bathroom paper can't go in the toilet.
Very quiet neighborhood, yet close to amenities. Good A/C, and they have hot water. Extremely nice staff.

GermanyThe room was a bit small for 4 people with big backpacks, but that’s no big deal for only a few nights. And the toilet needs a lot of time in between flushes to refill the water tank.
The room was comfortable and the AC worked well. The windows had a screen against mosquitos (very necessary in that area). The kitchen was well equipped and big enough to cook. The bikes to rent are in a rather good state (compared to other bike rentals eg in Tulum).

GermanyThe room we booked had mold at basically all walls and was smelling like it. We could change the room, after telling the owner. He also was thankful for the Feedback. The kitchen was pretty basic, I would not have had fun to cook a proper meal there. So we didn't.
The room we got after asking for another one, was quite big and had everything you need. The owner tried to help where he could. You can use the Freshwater and there was Nescafé to use for everyone.
