Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Skimpy on paper towels and toilet paper, needs a dish pan to drain dishes. Ice trays would have been nice.
Great location near main plaza (3 minute walk). Large apartment with lots of space to spread out. Very clean.

The kitchen was a little sparse in accessories. The bag of local coffee was a nice bonus surprise.
Beds were very comfortable outfitted with nice linens. We are family of four traveling with two young adults. The third bedroom was great to have at this stop on our trip. Very clean apartment. Lots of space for four. Common room is spacious with comfortable seating. Big TV which we only turned on for curiosity (it worked). Kitchen is well sized for apartment setting. Would not be suited for complex meal cooking. Parking spot is off street. We rented a mid-size SUV so it was a little tight to maneuver but it worked. Jose sent recommendations for local places to visit. We stayed during the Three Kings Holiday so some places were closed for holiday, and some closed long-term from recent earthquakes. The recommendations were helpful. Jose gave solid advice overall, particularly helpful on advice on what to expect on the holiday. Playa Santa gave us the Carribean Beach Experience. We enjoyed the day trip to Museo Castillo Serralles and La Cruz del Vigia.

Excellent location walking distance to center and a short drive to the airport. 3 rooms was great for 4 of us to each have our own bed. The apartment has everything you need. Jose was very helpful and responsive. He was even kind enough to mail us some clothes we left behind my mistake.

The area seems a little rough with some abandoned tear downs and empty lots nearby, probably left from Maria. But there's a designated parking spot inside a courtyard and the two door entry feels completely safe. Beautiful drive from San Juan or the west coast, neighborhood seemed quiet enough while we were there, worth a visit! Could use a couple of thicker bed covers.
The apartment was great - beds, furniture, kitchen, smart tv, air conditioning, all good. we just had a bad experience with a different home through booking, this seemed particularly great in contrast. no complaints! We broke an item and the owner could not have been nicer as we made arrangements to replace it. A terrific bistro right across the street with a huge courtyard, almost missed it because the store front is relatively small but its huge inside. 19 Barrios,

The apartment is beautiful, clean, close to everything in Ponce. Within walking distance to a lot of places. The neighborhood is a bit old, but well-kept, and we didn't feel unsafe. We noticed police patrolled the area on a regular basis. The host was wonderful. He responded to texts right away, and made sure we were comfortable, offering links and info on several places in the area we could visit. I 100% recommend
