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 and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesI wish my room had a desk. I was working remotely for a few days and I had to go to the common areas to work. No biggie since there weren't any other guests at the pool, bar, lounge, etc. but it would have been nice.
Breakfast was made to order and the coffee was divine! I loved the fruit to start and the fresh juice. Watch out for the mosquitos though! They swarmed me as soon as I sat down. Put on your repellant first.

This boutique hotel is an oasis from the hustle and bustle of the old town of Cartagena. It is strategically positioned in a quiet but accessible part of the old town and is nearby to the center, restaurants and other points of interests. We loved everything about our stay here, the hotel staff were so lovely and always helpful. If you're thinking about booking this place, go for it! You won't be disappointed.

PolandThe fan in our bathroom was incredibly loud. Some staff members were unfriendly and seemed to hate tourists or as if they were forced to work. Not a 5 star hotel staff. Our window overlooked the hallway and we were unlucky because other quests living next to us and opposite us were loud and inconsiderate. They even hanged out in their room with open door and one person was sitting under our window and chatting on the phone… The hotel tied to assist, and it’s not their fault. However be mindful that the walls are thin and you can hear a lot.
Wonderfully located property. Everything was new and clean. The breakfast was great. Nice toiletries.

Amazing hotel and amazing staff headed up by Jorge, the manager, who went above and beyond to give us a wonderful experience. We loved staying here! It was an oasis of calm with beautiful interiors in the bedroom and communal areas that all contributed to such a wonderful and peaceful stay. We want to come back again and would not hesitate in recommending Casa la Merced by Mustique as your preferred stay in the historic walled city of Cartagena.

United StatesSoledad and Jorge went overboard to make our stay comfortable. The kitchen was immaculately clean. The beds were so comfortable that we overslept. The room was described as having "twin beds" but they were actually queen sized beds and the room was huge. There was a ton of space for 2 people to put both folded and hanging clothes. The rain head shower was delightful. The decor in the common area utilized natural elements. The artwork and music in the common area provided a really cool vibe. The location was perfect. The hotel is really close to great restaurants but far enough away from the frenetic areas. Its proximity to the wall makes it easy to pop up on top to watch the sunset.
