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 StatesThe kitchen is fine, but if you intend to have breakfast in, bring everything (tea...) as there is no small batch of anything in the cupboard. Parking could be difficult on week-end evening as it is close to central Condado. Table would be small to fit 3 people. No issue for us, but no elevator.
The Avila Guesthouse is a nice big studio type of property with all necessary equipment. Big enough to have space to move around the room, bathroom is large and clean. Clean also linen, bed was comfy. The kitchen is fine, but if you intend to have breakfast in, bring everything (tea...) as there is no small batch of anything in the cupboard. Property looks exactly like the pictures. Not to far from Calle Loiza and beach resorts.

United StatesLocation was a bit noisy at night from nearby roads and outdoor music but ear plugs solved that problem. 5 flights of stairs and no elevator. Ok if you’re traveling light. Nearby neighborhood has no charm. If I were alone not sure I’d feel safe walking around at night.
Clean, comfortable bed, all the amenities we needed, parking, close to airport, easy walk to restaurants. Close to grocery store.

GermanyNot somewhere for a longer stay. Thin walls, noisy. Narrow stairs to apartment without a lift. Huge pickups parked right up against the entrance - we had to squeeze past with our suitcases to even get in. Not much personality.
Totally adequate place for a layover. Clean and easy self check-in.

United StatesShower was fine - it just accumulated water past the little block - so I had to mop it every time. Lack of closet space but we made do. Need instructions on how to use the air conditioner :) - just like the shower had instructions.
Location! A 5 minute walk to Condado Beach, food, bars, grocery story. If you are driving, highway is right nearby - easy access. Felt safe with cameras & codes to get in/out of building & room. Room was really clean. Kitchen/fridge/microwave in good working order. Quick to answer messages. Photos enclosed was when we were leaving.
