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...).

NetherlandsThe beds are very very soft and therefore not comfortable for us. We also found the pool photo quite misleading, it looks inviting and nicely styled in the pictures, but in reality, it’s just plain loungers around a standard American pool.
The location is perfect. It’s set in an oasis in the desert, just half an hour from the most beautiful entrance to Big Bend National Park.

United StatesOur ceiling leaked. There was a storm the first night we arrived and there was a steady drip from the ceiling for hours. The staff placed a bucket in the middle of our room to catch the water. They did not offer to move us to another room. Also, the shower would not drain the first night we used it. Maintenance fixed it after we brought it to their attention.
The grounds were clean and beautiful. Sitting outside was peaceful and scenic. The staff were pleasant and welcoming.

United StatesThe hotel does not have an elevator. No problem for us, but it would be for some people. The shower floor was super slippery so be careful. We had to put a towel on the floor in the shower to feel safe. There are no grab bars either.
This place is a great surprise in this isolated, desert environment. For golfers and non-golfers, it is a place that will be remembered for the beauty and ambience. The golf course is like no other and photos do not do it justice. The staff are friendly and helpful. Our room was in the main hotel building which is the oldest part and it did need some attention but it was comfortable.

United StatesDesk Chair in our room was breaking apart, and we couldn’t use it. There were towels hanging on the back of out bathroom door, and we weren’t sure if they were clean or used. It was dark when we walked back from dinner and it was difficult to walk on the uneven and missing paving stones to our room 116.
Room and property were nice. Comfy bed, lots of places to put your luggage.

United StatesIn researching for our stay, we were so excited to eat at the saloon - love the name - were hoping to get a fun T-shirt to show off after. However, that saloon was full of loud, drunk golfers scattered all over harassing a lovely singer. The person who greeted us at the bar, where there were 3 chairs and a guy sitting in the middle one, yelled to us that if we wanted to eat just let someone at the bar know. Wow. What a welcome.?? I appreciate that you can’t choose the clientele but we were really bummed. So we ate in the restaurant. Which was OK but just not what we had set our sites on. One more note, It was confusing to find the hotel. We were looking for “The Lajitas Golf Resort” but the hotel has a different name. Perhaps in the information you send out, mention to “check in at the Badlands Hotel.”
Location, adorable room in the hotel, the property with its history was enchanting! We wished we had planned more time there - we were there to see Big Bend - to take advantage of the many opportunities for activities. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Eddie was kind enough to educate us about the history of the place and the sites to see. Thanks Eddie!
