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.).

United KingdomNowhere to hang wet clothes (either from a dip in the pool or from getting caught in a downpour!). Small outside (sheltered) space out front of our room, too much of a squeeze for 4 people to sit comfortably at the small table.
Large pool, with a great view of Volcan Arenal. Great breakfast, friendly and very helpful receptionist. Comfortable beds. Spacious bathroom and shower. Spotted blue jeans frogs in the grounds! Walking times approx 5 min to El Salto, 5 min to supermarket, 10-15 min to town, 10 min to Arenal Mundo for ziplining.

United KingdomNothing it was a brilliant start to our holiday would highly recommend. Bring flipflops to walk round pool tho as concrete is a little rough on the feet.
Grounds were stunning teaming with wildlife we saw toucans , Jesus Christ lizards and lots of lizards and birds. Breakfast was plentiful pool was always quiet and perfect for a dip after a long day out hiking. Room was spotless and toiletries provided. Kettle and pool towels provided for a deposit Location brilliant 500m for el salto swing and river and about 5 mins walk into La fortuna.

The setting is lovely and the grounds are stunning with a view of the volcano from the pool area which is gorgeous. You’re an easy transfer from all tours.

United StatesThe television had very bad reception. The picture was very grainy.
The cabins are basic but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good and served in a covered pavilion where you could take in the natural environment. The grounds are beautiful with lots of plants and some wildlife. Just a 10 minute walk to the center of town.

United StatesOnly thing I'd change is maybe adding a snack/pool bar open like 4-8:30pm (when the pool closes) - nothing major simple snack foods like fries, chip and gac, quesadillas, hamburgers maybe, all easy snacks and drinks just something for when you don't want to leave the property after a long day of adventures but need something more then chips
The breakfast and staff were amazing. Fresh juice was so good I'm going home and buying a juicer. Jackie at the front desk was amazing so helpful, kind and patient with my many questions. The property was beautiful, clean and the pool was so great. We also loved the little game room in the barn - brought back some family fun and good old competition

Costa RicaHaving to grab an umbrella to go to the breakfast area? If there was a roof above the walkways , it would be even better. But that´s not a major issue. Just room for improvement
i had stayed at the same hotel many years ago and the rooms had noisy celing fans. This time around they have quiet A/C units instead and the rooms ceilings seems to have been elevated, if I recall correctly from that previous visit. Much better

FinlandAir conditioning was noicy, probably from the outdoor unit that made a strong humming noice through the wall (should probably be detached from the wall of the building). No hot water at the sink, only in the shower, difficult to wash sunglasses.
