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.).

You cannot beat the location of Villa Herencia. The property is within walking distance to everything in Old San Juan.

BermudaTiny room and wasn't sure if the mold on the wall was real or fake just to add to the character. The floor had dirty old tiles (but traditional) so we made sure to keep shoes on in the room and when going to the bathroom.
Very cool old traditional villa in the center of Old San Juan. Fantastic location and a cool authentic experience for 1 night, but probably wouldn't want to stay there too long. We couldn't figure out how to get in at first as we arrived after 4pm and there is no reception then. Our taxi guy couldn't even find the hotel as there is no sign to say it's a hotel. They sent instructions with some codes to open the front door, but we couldn't find the key box to the room at first. It was kind of fun like a real escape room where you have to find keys to open the next room lol. The property was very interesting - if you want an authentic stay, book it! It's nothing like a normal hotel. But I wouldn't want to stay more than a couple of nights. I would want something more comfortable for a longer stay.

Puerto RicoNothing we disliked. Everything was to our liking and expectations.
Location was a central point for us to part from and enjoy what the city had to offer. We also enjoyed the ease of checking in and out.

United StatesVery old and damp. Upstairs patio etc shown in reviews and ads were quite weathered and in need of fixing.
Convenient location . Architectural significant . Place was probably 100 - 150 year old. And that included the floor tile. Very quaint.

BrazilThere was never anyone at the reception, so checking in and out can be a bit of an issue if you don’t have a phone signal/wi-fi (we actually got help from a stranger on the street to call the staff and let us in). Also, no breakfast, but there are lots of places close by.
Beautiful boutique hotel, everything is charming and the room is small, but comfortable. There’s a jacuzzi upstairs, which was fun! The location is amazing, right in the middle of Old San Juan, so you can do everything on foot! Would definitely recommend.

United StatesThe shower pressure was not the best but its expected in an older building. The terrace was a little too crowded with random furniture and the railing needs to be updated. Its a safety issue - but again its kind of expected in these older buildings.
The location of the hotel was great, very central to shopping areas, restaurants, and tourist attractions. The hotel made you feel like you time traveled, it’s gorgeous and antique with modern touches. Perfect for a little getaway.
