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

Verified reviewThe location is terrific. You can walk thru the forest or on the concrete path. Nature is at your fingertips. The food at the restaurant is really good. It's gourmet type, but the taste is really good. You can enjoy the Temazcal (steam room), the pool, gym or get a massage.
Waiters are not so great. Some are very pleasant, attentive, respectful and have a good understanding of their job. Some of them need more training on the job. My wife and I were left unattended for so long that we had to walk over to the kitchen to ask for assistance more than once. First time we needed more coffee, second time the waiter promised to bring hot sauce, but he never came back not even to apologize. Another issue that I am still trying to resolve is that somehow I was charged twice on my credit card for my stay. I am working with Mgr. Marisol, but the processing is very slow. They have admitted the double charge on my account, but it seems to be something they have trouble processing because it is taking a while. I hope it can be resolved soon. I have stayed about five times at this hotel and I like the place with its imperfections, but this will be the last thing can happen for me not to be back.

Verified reviewThis hotel is a piece of heaven in the middle of a village near Cobán. The rooms are spacious, decorated exquisitely with local textiles and beds are dressed with premium linen. The property is massive! I loved the open plan gym, the pool and visiting the deers. The restaurant is delicious and staff are always willing to help. Be curious about local context and Guatemalan history. That will give you a clue about why there is a German flag at the front of the property.
The road that leads to the hotel is quite damaged and it can get swampy and hard to drive through during rainy season. It is a bit of a detour on your way to Cobán (but worth the stay). There was a function at the restaurant during our stay and the staff were overwhelmed with work. Unfortunately they struggled to prepare the spa for a massage appointment that we had booked 24 hrs in advance. Also, the shower in our room didn't seem to drain properly and there was a massive puddle left after every shower. There is very little mobile reception and wifi is unstable and unavailable at times. Be mindful of this if you're planning yo do any remote work.
Dear guest, thank you for taking the time and share your comments about your stay, we send our apologies for the inconveniences and we will give follow up. Thank you Alejandra
