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.).

CanadaThe lights on the A/Cs could not be turned off so we put something on it (not a big deal). The hot water in the shower was a bit hard to figure but it was hotter with less flow (warms up water on demand). For some unknown reasons the couch had a unpleasant smell. We had the first villa on the side of the road and it was quite noisy until 11:30pm. The motorcycles and sone cars were making a lot of noise. There could be more light in the kitchen at the dining table and especially warmer lights instead of those blue-toned white lights.
The rooms were comfortable and the A/C was great. We had a crib for our baby and the bunk bed + single bed were nice - our toddler had to choose where she could sleep. The 2 bedrooms were both a nice size and nicely equipped. The pool was awesome and we can see that the rest of the facilities were being built/under construction and it will look very nice! Close to « downtown ». Privacy and parking were great. Youtube and Netflix were available and wifi was great. Communication was great - we had answer almost immediately when I was sending messages on Booking.com. The self check-in was super easy.

United StatesLots of construction going on. Workers arrived at 8am and were there all day. It rained the majority of the stay but it felt weird to use the pool with all the workers. Strong musty smell however it had just rained. Glass slider curtain was broken so couldn’t open it during the day.
Really close to town Gated entry that felt very safe Nice pool and cool fish pond

CanadaI would upgrade the couch as it is very soft and hard to sit on. The patio door is extremely hard to open - maybe a little WD40 on the track would help. Towels in the villa could be upgraded and a beach towel per guest provided. We loved the garden and would love to see some bird feeders to attract birds.
Nice property about a 3 minute drive away from the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna. The Fortuna Waterfall was a 5 minute drive. The villa was comfortable and well stocked with dishes and dishes. The pool area was clean and nice to relax around and enjoy the gardens. It was nice to have a secure gate and there were restaurants and a grocery store, coffee shop just a 5 minute walk away.

CanadaThe pool was a bit dirty at times (though the heavy rainfall may have been to blame). A couple of things need to be updated in the suite, e.g. trouble opening some drawers/cabinets in kitchen, toilet seat being very loose, no Netflix/streaming on TV. This isn't a luxury accommodation but fantastic for price point.
We really liked the size and price of this property. It was great to have 2 bedrooms and a full kitchen for our family rather than being cramped in a hotel room. The pool was nice to lounge around once in a while. Though it wasn't walking distance to town, that didn't bother us because we had a car. By far, the biggest asset was Andrea. She was so lovely in giving recommendations and booking us tours and was responsive immediately over WhatsApp. We would happily recommend this property.

Costa RicaThey sell the accommodation for 3 people, one need to sleep on a couch. This is very inconvenient and it’s only recommended to do if you want back and neck pain. There was 1 spoon, 2 forks and 2 knives. Not sure how 3 people can eat, we had to share the spoons. Electricity from the kitchen was not working, coffee maker was dirty. The sleep couch was very dirty and there was nothing to put over it. Won’t ever come back, not recommended.

When we inforned it, the service lady came to advise us to open the toilet tank's cover to get water manualy for flushing. I do not think it's normal practice for guests who paid not small amount for booking.

United KingdomThe host said she could get us a discount on activities but the price she quoted was about 20 US more per person, than if you booked directly, obviously trying to earn a bit extra on the side, we booked directly ourselves and saved ourselves about 80 US dollars. There was no hot water in the shower, host did send someone out but problem was not resolved, no apology or acknowledgment from host, I believe hot water didn’t work in the first place!!!
There wasn’t much to like, the decor was horrible, mis matched, bedding smelt as if it wasn’t washed. Wallpaper was peeling, bedrooms were small and felt like you were in a backpackers hostel, photos are misleading, the pool was tiny.
