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...).

United StatesWe struggled with the smell of the sargassum sea weed that was on the shores. This was the only issue and it was out of the hotel’s control.
We loved the way it looked and we LOVED the staff! The kids enjoyed swimming in the pool almost every day.

United StatesIt needs more staff to keep up with cleaning every day not only every three days. Breakfast could also have something else added as cold meats or make the eggs different to change from one day to another.
Excellent location, it was very easy to get to every place from here. Pleased with finding all needed in our room to cook, very good size fridge.

CanadaThe rooms are more like small apartments and the kitchens are not adequately supplied with basic tools. The furniture was not very comfortable in the living room … really no place to sit in comfort.
The location is exceptional…right off 5th Avenue…near all the action. Staff was very, very good….especially Lili, Miquel and Marianna

United StatesThe bed was not comfortable. The king-sized bed in one of the bedrooms was two short and the frame was extremely squeaky, even from a slightest movement. The cleanliness of the rooms/bathroom was questionable. Also, our rooms did not get cleaned one, even though daily maid service was supposed to be included.
The hotel is charming and the location is excellent. Our two bedroom/two bath suite was very spacious. The breakfast was adequate but ended too early at 9:30 am.

United KingdomThe hotel did not live up to it’s 4 star rating for a number of reasons. The breakfast is meagre to say the least and the kitchenette was poorly equipped (not a single pan, tea towel or even a plug for the sink). We were told cleaning the room was every 3 days unless you request otherwise which should be automatic for 4 star. The polished steps from the lobby to the lift (that doesn’t work when it rains) and roof terrace were so treacherous in the wet, with no handrails or staff wiping them to make them safer. If you decide to risk life and limb when it’s wet to go up to the roof terrace, be careful you don’t fall off as the wall is dangerously low.
The Acanto is located close to all the action whilst being tucked away down a side street. The rooms are large and comfortable and the staff were always keen to help.

We liked Carla - who welcomed us on the first night. SHe went out of her way to find wine glasses and a bottle opener for us for the night we were there. It seemed like the people here really care about their clients. Location is perfect .

The whole experience was wonderful. From the interaction with the front desk before I arrived to the minute I left. Liliana and Karla at the front desk were incredible and extremely helpful. They suggested transportation, restaurants and places to visit. Miguel was amazing. He made breakfast every morning and also took care of security. Our room was ready for an early check in which was a gift. We had a little issue with the AC and Karla moved us to another room right away. The location is simply great. A few steps from 5th Ave yet we could barely hear any noise. We were a few blocks from the beach and close to everything we wanted and needed. I highly recommend this hotel. It was charming, clean, the rooms were spacious, and the staff was simply wonderful!

United StatesThere was a bit of sewer gas in the area around the hotel. Some of the finishers were dated and should be dealt with.
The breakfast was a fresh continental breakfast, certainly meeting my expectations. The staff were very nice and did all you could expect of them.
