Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

ItalyThe shower water flows weakly, but I think it is a problem in the area. The sockets near the bed charge the phone very very slowly.
The hotel is very cute and the staff super nice. It is furnished like an old colonial house, and has a beautiful interior garden. Room is comfortable and big. Breakfast is nice and position is 10min walk to all the main attractions.

United KingdomHot water is intermittent, but it's so hot you don't need it.
The location is excellent; close enough to walk everywhere, far enough out of the centre to get some peace and quiet, and just around the corner from two leafy squares with good bars and restaurants (and a great empanada stall). It's a beautiful, wooden house, with lush plants, and a small swimming pool (just bug enough for a cooling dip). We had a small balcony looking over the street; perfect for sun bathing in the morning, and watching the world go by in the evening.

CanadaPool shut down early at 7pm. Would have been nice if it was open later.
Very nice property in the heart of old town. Easy walk to many sites and lots of restaurants. We were on the third floor which was only accessed by stairs but we had the floor and outdoor patio to ourselves. An unexpected delight. Staff are friendly and breakfast was good and healthy.

Had such a wonderful stay here. Beautiful hotel right inside the walled city, within walking distance of whatever you may need and very close to multiple museums and attractions, but was very quiet still. Staff was incredibly kind and helpful, and went out of their way to help arrange transportation for us. Breakfast was very good and quick. Overall incredible experience and would definitely stay here again!

United StatesAs with many old colonial houses, space and accessibility is limited. I wish I had thought about this ahead of time to request rooms with easy access for travelers with limited mobility.

United StatesSince the room with a balcony is on the street, there is some noise in the afternoon and evening (quiet late night and into morning). While the staff members speak some English, you're best off if you know some Spanish. The bed is firm. If you don't like hot weather, be aware that the lobby, breakfast area, courtyard, stairs, and hallway are all open air.
The hotel is in a convenient location in the old city. The room was spacious. The staff members were all friendly and helpful. The balcony was nice. Breakfast includes your choice of fruit, fruit juice (fresh), coffee, eggs (many versions, made to order), and toast. It is served quickly. AC in room was quiet and cool. The hotel is about 20 min from the airport by taxi, which was COP30-35k ($7-8) each way. The hotel is cozy and scenic.

United StatesThere was a bad storm day 4 of my trip and the hotel lost power. All understandable, considering that the building is so old. It started to get very warm in my room. The worst part was when trying to turn the power back on the staff made lots of noise very early in the morning.
The hotel is in an excellent location. Close to everything and in a very walkable area. Short walk to sites, restaurants and shops. As a solo traveler I felt very safe and secure. The staff was amazing and very welcoming! I loved that they offered a small breakfast each morning and tidied up my room each. It was a very charming hotel and I would stay again. Highly recommend.
