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 StatesOur room was directly off the restaurant which normally wouldn't have been so bad, but the base speaker of their sound system was next to our wall, which provided only base pounding which lasted all day. Same beat, same music. It was difficult to rest at all during the day in the room due to the music. We had to ask the manager both nights of our stay to turn down/off the music so that we could sleep. He was amicable enough, but we didn't feel like he genuinely was looking out for out comfort, or oblivious that the sound was so disturbing for hotel guests. There are not lounge chairs for guest use on the beach, only chairs and tables. We also sat at the outdoor tables around lunch time for some time before having to go up to the bar ourselves to order drinks Three employees where congregating up at the bar, and had no other guests there at the time . We had planned to eat at the restaurant, but were so tired of hearing the same beat of music all day long had to leave for dinner for a break.
The hotel is in a nice location away from the fray of the town. Generally a pleasant atmosphere.

United StatesNo breakfast on site. it’s kind of weird that a restaurant with “cafe” in the name doesn’t open for breakfast. It’s not the end of the world but a little bit of a pain to walk into town in the morning to find something when it’s hot, even though it’s only 10 minutes or so to a place called Guayoyo which is excellent.
right on the beach, beautiful beach restaurant also on the beach with excellent sunset view

CanadaThe rooms were small. The shower had no water pressure and kept cutting out the hot water as well. Our bed was lopsided/saggy on one side where I almost rolled off a few times.
The location of the beach and pool were great. The food was very good as was the happy hour. The place was quiet at night and we had very good sleeps.

United StatesDo NOT stay in this hotel. This hotel advertises as being 4 stars and it is not even 2 stars. I booked two nights, and when I arrived with my family, the building is nothing like they show in their advertisement photos. We paid extra for the larger room, that later found out it was the same as all other rooms. The bathroom doesn't have hot water, there is no staff at all from 7 pm-noon, they don't provide toiletries, the building is so run down, and there is mold on the walls. It is so unsafe to arrive after 7 pm, since there is no security nor any lighting in the hallways. The locks of the room and the safe have been forced. The linens and towels are nasty. There aren't any food options from 7 pm-noon, including breakfast, since there is none in the hotel to assist. These are not qualities of a 4-star hotel. We spoke with management about these issues at the beginning of the stay, and we were told the owner was out of town and unable to help us. We decided to leave because we were afraid for our safety, and our young children's safety, as well as very disappointed with the service and the hotel overall. It was certainly NOT what we paid for as the hotel advertised to us. I requested to be refunded for the night we didn't use and because the hotel is not what they advertise. The owner contacted me back being incredibly rude and insulting me for complaining and wanting a refund for the unused night. I definitely do NOT recommend this hotel, and I request Booking to review their contract with this hotel which is clearly falsely advertised.
There is no breakfast option...this is not a quality of a 4 star hotel. this hotel is a SCAM

Costa RicaParking is outside, directly on the street, does not seem safe. Pool did not have lighting, at night it was almost pitch black. Checkout was at 11 am but there was no one before 11 am to do the checkout (this is more important in this place because they need to check your room for damages before they give you back a $100 deposit which was not specified at booking.com). Room did not have toilet paper. We had to ask for toilet paper two separate occasions. Shower did not have hot water. There is no breakfast available. Overall not a bad experience, but I will try other places nearby in the future.
Location, hotel is right in front of the beach. personnel was friendly. Prices seems fair compared to other options close by. Beach was peaceful and clean, beautiful sunsets. Bed was comfortable, AC worked great. Did not try the restaurant, but cocktails and fruit smoothies were tasty.

CanadaThe room was not at all what we were expecting. For what we paid for the room we expected more. If you get this for a really cheap price its fine to stay in but its very outdated. The towel literally ripped in the middle when we tried to dry off with it. the bed sheets were clean but had rips in them. There is no room cleaning service. We ran out of toilet paper and had to find bar staff to ask for some. One night the bar had a DJ which we just didn't expect and it was very loud. Be sure to let staff know if you're going out after 830pm even. We went to dinner and returned to find the gate locked. They turn off every single light so make sure you bring your phone for a flashlight when you come back after dark. We didn't even bother getting in the pool since it looked kind of scummy and green, but we did see it being cleaned one day out of the three we were there.
The bar/restaurant attached to this place was nice and had a lovely area to sit on the beach. Staff were very nice and friendly! There is a night guard on the beachfront side since the cafe is just open to the beach, this made us feel safe.

United StatesI think the prices were fair for food and drinks, maybe more than I expected- but also from the dishes we got the chef was great! Only thing we didn’t love was the bedroom/pool side king bed. It was a little tight to move around in and the shower was very hard coming out of the head.
The staff was some of the nicest people we ran into across our whole stay in Costa Rica. The location is outside of town, and town isn’t chaos by any means but it’s by far the best place on the beach in playas del coco. The vibe of the hotel is very chill and restaurant set up is gorgeous! The pool area is lovely and the pool man was very thorough of keeping it clean.
