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 KingdomAll of the 4 members of staff we dealt with were noticeably unfriendly compared with those at all 6 other hotels we stayed at whilst in Costa Rica. Whilst the room and facilities were adequate, we'd stayed in much cheaper places elsewhere that were much nicer. The breakfast choice was also poor.

United StatesIt seemed like the hotel was stringing out the maintenance budget as tightly as possible, while still allowing the facility to run. The pool was downright gross, and I am generally a camping/roughing-it traveler. There were general maintenance issues, like the toilet seat pivoting and the like, but I expected minor issues like that for the price. The breakfast was nice to have but the food was mediocre at best. The restaurant, beyond breakfast, was really not so good and overpriced. The staff seemed to be doing their best, but when we arrived I was told we had no reservation (I had a confirmation number) and that we were at the wrong hotel. It took a bit but we sorted it out. They then said they gave us an upgrade, which once we got in the room, turned out to be the room in the pictures which I had reserved to begin with. It all worked out, but it seemed a bit disorganized and was a bit unsettling since we were traveling with our kids.
The location was outstanding. It is very close to Manuel Antonio Park, close to the beach, and really in the heart of the tourist area. The room was very clean and nice looking, with a contemporary aesthetic. We were in what looked to be the newly built portion of the motel. The AC worked well. The balcony was a great place to hang out! There were tons of animals around and on the property, which was wonderful. The staff was helpful when asked. Sitting in the open restaurant watching the monsoon come down was magical!

Czech RepublicBut what I rate as very bad is that right after our arrival we discovered probably the biggest cockroach we have ever seen in our life in the bathroom. The receptionist did help us, but he responded by saying that we are in the tropics and that is normal. The waiter who served at breakfast was really very, very unpleasant and he showed it to everyone. For the fact that it was one of the most expensive accommodations we had in Costa Rica and for the price-quality ratio it was a disaster. You could only choose from 3 types of breakfast and if you don't eat eggs like me, no one is talking to you. This has not happened to me elsewhere in Costa Rica. For that price, the accommodation should be better. benefits from that location.
The receptionist was absolutely brilliant and I would have given him a 10. We arrived to find it fully booked for the next day to Manuel Antonio National Park. But the receptionist got us a guide and entrance, so we got into the park. Otherwise we would have been unlucky, we were only here for 3 days and the following days the park was closed. So a big thank you to him for that. At the same time, he helped us kill a cockroach in the bathroom. Another plus is the location.
