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 StatesThe room was outdated. The furniture was falling apart. Need some remodeling. The jacuzzi tub in the bathroom water had a such an awful smell like sewage water. Couldn’t use it like we wanted to. The main pool outside was just aight. And the thermal was not all that hot.
The view of the volcano from our bungalow was so beautiful. The staff were amazing. Food was delicious. Spa was everything.

United KingdomNot the warm welcome expected on arrival. Also placed in a dorm-like family room that smelt damp. Air con didn’t work properly. Pillows (even after getting them replaced) smell used by 1000s of people (and other things) which wasn’t nice. Used our clothes as pillows and slept badly. Breakfast was a bit lacking for veggies. Just to warn you there is no Wi-Fi in your rooms - you have to move to the Wi-Fi zone or communal areas to access it (unless you have a phone plan in Costa Rica). This was annoying if you wanted to stream music/ watch a film in the evening or whatever.
The on-site hot springs are beautiful. The included 30 min spa treatments (one per stay pp) were a nice touch. The activity (one per stay pp) was brilliant. The bird life around the property and the trail walk is beautiful. Lunch was good for veggies and view from the restaurant to the volcano is amazing. Pool bar man is a diamond!

United StatesBe aware that this hotel is NOT All Inclusive. They state that the $222/ night charge includes all drinks, food and spa but in reality you get nothing but a room that is dated and in disrepair. The pool is uncomfortable and the hot springs are dirty and cold. Keep looking, do not stay here.

United StatesI selected this place because they advertise unlimited select spa treatments. However this is not provided. When I went to the spa I was told I could choose between one 30 minute session. If I wanted an hour massage or any other treatments then I was required to pay. This is a theft/scam and I will be disputing with my credit card. I paid for services that were not available.
I loved the location the beauty the entire location. There's multiple hot tubs, one has a waterfall and is surrounded by forest, absolutely gorgeous. Pura Vida was what I needed on this trip and they provided it!!

Costa RicaTo begin I did double booking by mistake and even though we called immediately they did not refund me so I will be going again soon. YAY! (Sarcasm). So we stayed at the best room... so no complains about the room but we also paid the all inclusive package and if you ask me it should be called (Barely inclusive package) why? Because whenever you go to the restaurant they will hand you a different menu than what the restudant usually has... which will have the same exact dishes every day so if you are staying for more than 1 day trust me you will get tired of the "all inclusive" food. Lets now move on to the unlimited drinks package that does not even include the piña colada on it... again you will be restricted to 5 type of drinks instead of having access to their i guess "premium beverages". Plus the manager doesn't even know what he is doing. The rest of the staff was great specially at the restaurant and pool bar. PD: If you have the all inclusive meal package they will charge you $12 if you wished to use/switch their regular menu.
Breakfast was good and the location is great.

Costa RicaIt had humidity, bathroom even though was clean it didn’t look like it. Walls needed paint. Pools? That was a joke. The only good thing was the breakfast, and it was nothing outstanding.
