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.).

AustriaThere was nothing we didn‘t like. There are two friendly dogs - just do you know. Driving up should be done by a 4 by 4 car. We managed to do it with a 2 by 4 but we really struggled.
The owners have been friendly and super helpful & accomodating. The kitchen was free to use and well equipped. The garden was just beautiful and a good place to watch all kinds of birds. The hotel is up a hill in the middle of the rainforest which is lovely. This was the perfect start to out trip in costa rica! Thank you so much!

United KingdomThis is a real gem of a place. It's on the edge of rainforest and the owners obviously love birds and are keen to help you see them and explore the area. The owners are very kind and chilled out. There's a great patio to sit on to eat, watch the birds and look at the view.

SwitzerlandNo mosquito net over the bed, but the hosts were very open to let us put up ours. Ticket prices to the local station feel quite steep (20$ p.p.), but on the upside you will most likely be able to enjoy nature without anybody else around.
Lovely hosts. Great breakfast on the terrace where you can spot a lot of birds, the local bird chart was a great idea! Possibility to use kitchen and fridge. Laundry Service was convenient (extra charge)

GermanyWe had a fantastic time at this place. You have a wonderful view from the terraces and we saw plenty of wildlife (kolibris, sloths, tucans and plenty of other colorful birds) which can bei experienced from up close with Fabios telescope. Marcella and Fabio took us on a nighttime and daytime walk and were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was tasty! In general, it was one of the best places we ever stayed. We were able to access the house with a regular car (no 4x4), but I guess it may be different depending on the season.

United StatesOnly the weather for our first two days, unusually cloudy and rainy but the warmth of Marcela and Fabio made up for that.
What makes Birds and Breakfast Very Special are its owners Marcela and Fabio. They treated us like loving family. I cannot say enough about their graciousness and hospitality. They went totally above and beyond our wildest expectations. They fully recognized that we two Floridians (me at 83 & my SO at 71) were not physically up to hiking those steep trails so they made up for it with other activities that we could comfortably handle. While birds are their focus and we saw/photographed many we also saw sloths and various animals and got to sample their local food extensively.

Fantastic location within forest but far reaching views when weather allows. Great breakfast table facing extensive bird feeding area, regularly topped up throughout the day.

SpainThe place is marvelous, almost inside the rainforest reserve. Marcella and Fabio made our stay memorable, and gave us super useful information about the surroundings and how to explore Chidren's eternal rainforest reserve. I'd recommend to stay as long as possible, as this place is magical, full of peace, calm. Birdwatching (and Sloth watching!) during the breakfast time is something you'll never forget.

United StatesBreakfast was excellent. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure my family had a great experience. I would 💯 go back again and stay at Beds and Breakfast. The only reason I wouldn’t give the place 10/10 is because the mattress in my room was too hard and hurt my lower back. But my husband and the other couple who traveled with us didn’t have any issues with the mattress. So it could a preference thing. Anyways, I really did enjoy my stay.
