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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Great location right by ruins bus and many restaurants. Room has a lovely large windows looking onto the woods. Staff were very friendly and happy to answer questions. The room has a kettle for tea or coffee, and tere's a kitchen downstairs you can use to store things. Loved it!

Cosy and clean, with a beautiful garden! It has two turtles and we saw an iguana everyday in the same tree. It has a quite complete kitchen that you can use. Location was in a nice neighborhood, close to nice restaurants and cafes, but still in a tranquil street

United KingdomNot much we didn't like, as this place was excellent. Maybe we missed having a pool to get out of the heat, but we did know there wasn't one. The other thing is that the beds were doubles and not larger - again we did know this was the case.
This place is great. It's nestled in the jungle, with space to sit outside. There is a shared kitchen with each room having its own shelf in the fridge. There is also filtered water available. It is inexpensive, very clean, and the staff are friendly. The rooms are basic but comfortable, and have Aircon. We also stored our bags and used the facilities after our check put time, before we left.

AustraliaA room safe, as there is no reception.
Close to the ADO bus stop, the hotel is off a side street so it very quiet and it feels like you are in the rainforest. There is a garden area out the back that looks over a forest full of birds, lizards and iguanas. It was a great place just to sit for a couple hours and soak up nature. The wifi was fast and easy to connect to. There is a communal kitchen with a fridge and all the utenilse you need. The room was pretty basic, but super clean and everything works. AC and a fan. Good spot for a short stay

CanadaThe only problem is when people sit on the shared patio at night. It is right outside the rooms and you can hear everything. We finally had to ask them to be quiet so we could sleep because we had such an early morning arriving on the overnight bus.
Large, clean room. Air conditioning works well and is needed as it is so hot. Wifi works well. Great location, 1/2 block off the lagoon. You see the lagoon from the patio. They let us check in early which was really appreciated. There is free coffee in the morning which was very nice. Access to a full kitchen.

MalaysiaThere were a bit of noise during daytime coming from the next door building. Not a big deal, in evening it was peaceful and quiet.
Nice and clean with easy access to centro bus station. Staffs are friendly although they don't speak English and they allowed checkout extension for free, if you are coming back from the ruins in the afternoon, including full usage of bathroom.

SingaporeThin curtains so the streetlights outside shine in all night
Big room, AC, coffee machine. Looks like a fully equipped kitchen, though I was only there for a night so I didn't investigate. Walking distance from the ADO bus station, also probably where you'll get dropped off if you take a tour from San Cristóbal and stay in Palenque.

CanadaThe A/C was not sufficiently powerful to cool the room adequately. I realize the location is quite hot, but there were plenty of restaurants, pharmacies, and convenience stores in town that were well cooled even at peak temperatures during midday. Also, many hotels in the town report low water pressure, which was the case here too. Not sure a different hotel would have been different.
The location was good and the property was impeccably clean. The shared kitchen was nice to have too.

This is a cute little place with an excellent back terrace to watch birds/wildlife in the jungle. It has a well equipped kitchen, good luggage storage and even a bathroom with shower to change if you need to catch a late bus/plane after checkout. It's in a great neighborhood with lots of restaurants and close to bus station.
