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.).

CanadaHugo and his family were wonderful hosts. Very helpful and quick to answer questions. Hugo was kind enough to help us acquire tickets to Baldi. The room was clean and quaint, perfect for a night or two in La Fortuna. Shower is incredible! They are working on adding a kitchen for guest use, which would be fabulous for longer stays. Good location. Not walking distance to town center, but if you have a care there is secure parking offered.

NetherlandsNothing, it was perfect.
We had a great stay here. The appartment is spacious, the (big) bed is very comfortable, the bathroom has a hot shower and there is a good bakery just around the corner for breakfast. Also the host Hugo is friendly and can arrange tours in the area. Its 10-15 walk to the centre of La Fortuna or a few minutes with a car. We wanted to extend our stay here, but it was allready booked.

Sri LankaNothing not to like!
A cosy and spacious studio apartment, with large fridge, hot water kettle, coffee machine, cutlery and crockery. Much nicer than a bland hotel room. The owner Hugo was very warm and welcoming. Always ready with tips of where to eat etc. I was using a rental car so was glad there was a secure parking space.. Loved the little bits of greenery inside the room as well! The apartment is located next door to the owners home, where he and his wife and 2 kids live. So as a solo traveller I felt quite safe and comfortable. There's a balcony upstairs where you can either sit and / or dry your clothes.

AustraliaDon't be put off by, what at first seems to be, a very local street in the middle of no-where. You'll be great full for the peace and quiet yet still close enough to town
This place was a wonderful retreat away from the crazy busy city centre. It is still close enough to walk into bars and cafes but has the tranquillity of a quiet suburban street which you won't get in the centre. You couldn't ask for better facilities. The room was comfortable and very spacious. Hugo and maye were lovely hosts, very helpful but also kept to themselves.

ItalyOne of the best places I have stayed in Costa Rica! so what I liked: - Owner: As soon as I booked Hugo reached out to me on Whatsapp, he was super friendly and helped me figure out how to reach La Fortuna, I had to postpone my stay because I lost a few buses and he was okay with that, he even was worry about me, as soon as I arrived he wanted to collect me from the bus station and helped me with finding a bank, he also showed me one of the best bakeries close to his place. He is such a nice soul and made my stay super comfortable, every day was checking if I was good and if I had everything I needed ( he even gave me a big bottle of water to keep in the fridge, just a second after I asked information about the water). Incredible! - Accommodation: well, I believe the photo is a reverse catfish- it is way better than what it looks like, the bad is hugeeee! and everything looks so fancy, there is a little "kitchen" space where you have free tea and coffee. I love it. the bathroom is also super nice and new, the place, in general, is very clean, and super soft towels and a big fridge with around 5 L of water are waiting for you there. TV where you can forecast Netflix, air-conditioner, and if you don't like it like me, you have also a very powerful fan on the wall. What to say about the terrace, just WOW! - Location: 12 minutes walking distance from the city center, you have a good bakery just around the corner and the same for the supermarket - Plus: if you are planning to do any activity with Lava Tour, Hugo can help you to book it, actually you can find a lot of info about it in the apartment. He will call and arrange everything. He also booked for me the shuttle from La fortuna to Monteverde :). Internet!!! I was working remotely from there and the internet working perfectly, I had a few meetings and never had problems! really recommended.

Spacious, safe & secure. Friendly & helpful owner. Comfortable bed. All mod cons available. Hugo allowed us to stay a little longer in the Apartment as we had a later shuttle Upstairs terrace area was a real bonus. 10 mins easy walk to town.Loads of restaurants & sodas in town to choose from. Would return again when another holiday planned in the area. .

United Kingdom- if you’re scared of dogs I wouldn’t recommend - there are lots of dogs roaming the streets nearby as well as next door and they are aggressive even when you aren’t acknowledging them - they will bark at you - however my boyfriend found it fine because he wasn’t scared of dogs - i didn’t feel too safe walking home in the night (mainly because of the dogs) so we took a taxi from the town - it is around a 15min walk into the town
- spacious - nice owner - AC - walking (ish) distance to La Fortuna town - large size bed

United StatesSafe, clean, comfortable, parking, and extremely easy/convenient. Hugo’s a great dude. He provided us with the answers that we were looking for as my friends and I try to really grasp culture when we travel over tourism. However, he also has the scoop on the best touristy things to do as well! I will be pointing this place out to my loved ones without a doubt. I recommend this place over any other in la fortuna and it has been my best stay in Costa Rica and have been out here for 6 days. The breakfast was incredible and you can also have your laundry done for a low price. 10/10 5 stars
