How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The breakfast was a tad too small :/
The check-in process, the quality/cleanliness of the room are all good and we were all quite happy with out stay. I would like to give a specific shoutout to one of the Hotel's staff that helped line up a ride for me from the hotel to Managua even if it was technically after I checked out. Thank you Lisbeth for your professionalism and care!!!

Everything was plain perfect!
The hotel is absolutely great and very conveniently located in the center of the city with easy access everywhere. But there are plenty of such hotels in the world. But, here, you get the best hotel manager ever, Lisbeth, who is so helpfull and friendly! As well as the night guard and all the other staff. I've travelled a lot of the world, and believe me, it was the best customer service expierience I have ever had! If I could give the hotel 100 on booking, just for the service and friendliness, I would! The most perfect place to stay in all of Granada, or, all of Central America!

The room was great, with a nice bed. Also, the staff ladies, and guy are very nice people. They didn't have parking, but they were sure it stay safe, and actually all zone was very secure. Breakfast was good, so each dollar we paid for the room was totally worth it

Horrendous experience which was so unprofessional and felt like a scam. Booked a pool view triple room. Was staying in a tiny double room in the corner. WiFi terrible in the room. Smell in the toilet. Tiny pool which is irrelevant to the whole hotel. Check in was a bizarre experience and so unsettling. Nobody knew what was going on. The bed sheets were hanging out over the walls around the hotel. I’ve never stayed somewhere more awful. Such a waste of money. It genuinely should have been $20 for 1 night. I didn’t even bother with the “breakfast”. It was a table in what looked like a staff kitchen. This isn’t a hotel or a hostel. It’s horrible. Very loud until approximately 11.30pm.
Nothing. Terrible place.

Initially tried to give me a lower quality room than I had booked. Then, around 4pm, a very drunk bunch of Nicaraguans turned up, shouting and generally being obnoxious. I advised the receptionist I would prefer to leave and she advised me the tour guide would be told that if they created any more noise after going out at 5pm for more drinks, they would be asked to leave. Sure enough, they turned up at 2am making a loud noise and no action was taken. One of them thoughtfully left a pile of vomit outside their room! Breakfast was average. Only place I have come across that had no fresh milk.
Room was clean

There were a lot of bugs in my room and on my bed. The toilet seat was broken. The room ‘‘twas on the outskirts of town. They didn’t have alternative milk and the orange juice was tang. So food was basic but not great. The air conditioner. The hot water was too hot!.
They cooked my breakfast to me liking but I had to ask for an additional egg on the second day. The bed was super comfortable. The room had air (although I couldn’t get it to work great).

The first room didn't have a wifi signal but it was fixed when we switched room.
The staff were wonderful and made the best out of some unfortunate situations. We checked in and initially we were placed in a room that did not have good wifi signal so the staff tried moving the modem for better signal. When that didn't work, we changed rooms and that helped. The other issue was that there was no water for the first few hours - not the hotel's fault, it was a problem for several city blocks. The staff did what they could to make sure we could flush toilets and have access to other water for washing face, etc. The location is good for getting around the city and seeing the major sites.
