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 breakfast fried items (the triangular and circular items) were too dried out, perhaps because the heat lamps above them were too hot?
When I checked in, I appreciated that the front desk manager (a) flexibly could speak in ingles or espagnol, and (b) already had my check-in information, and room card, prepared. On top of that, the gentleman helping with parking was very service oriented, being helpful and upbeat with our luggage and parking instructions, even though we arrived at midnight from a long drive from the Pacific coast. Also, the breakfast food was fantastic, overall. I appreciated how there was a warm caraffe of milk for coffee/tea, how polite and friendly the omelette/egg cook was, and the wide variety of healthy food, especially with a local influence. Except a few minor food points (see below).

Everything was GREAT! It was nice to have real food for breakfast. Everything was tasty. I went next door to the AC hotel to by candy and they told me I could pay for it in my hotel. That would never happen in the US. Having a full kitchen made it nice to heat over the leftovers from P.F. Changs. It was a bit pricey, but I enjoyed everything.

United KingdomI wish they had spa facilities on the premises rather than in a galaxy far far away. 😁 To get to the spa, you had to leave the building, walk well outside the area, cross the highway over a ridiculously long footbridge with no lifts, then look for it somewhere there on the other side. I must admit, I gave up. But if you don't intend to use spa services, it's not going to be a problem. They can send a masseuse into your room instead, but she needs to be paid in cash. Lastly, I wished the room colours were brighter (they were the 1980s-style dark brown palette) but that is a personal preference, someone else may actually like it that way.
What an amazing place. If I'm ever staying in Escazu again, I'll definitely choose this hotel. The staff were superb, very friendly, ready to help and very accommodating. I asked for a room on a higher floor and they instantly arranged that for me. The breakfast was really good, with amazing service again - and a good choice of food and drinks. They also have a fantastic terrace outside, so you can choose whether to have your breakfast indoors or outdoors. The room was spacious and quiet, with a self-contained kitchen and a comfortable bed. They also have an outdoor pool and a nicely set up gym. The gym is not too big but has great equipment and if you go there during a quiet time, you can have the whole place to yourself. Also, a free welcome drink of my choice was a very nice touch. Another thing I loved was the location - right in the heart of Escazu, surrounded by excellent coffee shops and fashion boutiques only a short walk away.
