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.).

ArgentinaGreat hotel, our family room was big with a space for a kitchen which included a fridge and was perfect to keep fresh water or fruits... The pool is very nice, big enough to swim and well exposed to get sun in the morning and shadow mid afternoon. Very close to Quepos and all commodities, restaurants, shops as well as Manuel Antonio Parque which is definitely a must! Staff profesional and helpful.

United StatesThe hotel is set back but situated on a steep hill between Quepos and Manuel Antonio. We tried walking to a grocery store and feared for our lives due to the speed of traffic and lack of sidewalk or even shoulders. Similarly, we did not venture out to a restaurant or other activities.
The room was large and decorated with art work and nice touches such as a balcony with hammock Everything, including the shower, lights and wifi worked great and noise was not a problem. The pool was wonderful, clean and surrounded by tropical vegetation. The attached restaurant was very good for both breakfast and dinner. We were able to easily catch a public bus to the M.A. National Park which saved us a drive and parking.

LaosThe drive up to the hotel was very steep so we opted out of going out to dinner and just ate at the restaurant. MA park is crowded and very busy with tons of tours and guides. Not our favorite place in Costa Rica by far. The beach was ok but not easy to get in and out of ocean because the surf was so rough.
Breakfasts were delicious and you got a choice of options. We ate dinner there every night and the food was outstanding...highly recommend the Tricolores salad! There was a balcony and we were able to sit outside in the evenings. The pool was small but refreshing after a day out at Manuel Antonio park.

United StatesWe upgraded to a private bungalow with the hopes of privacy and a quiet place to catch up on sleep. However, we were put in a split duplex villa, which had a regular interior door between our room and the neighbors. We could hear everything the neighbors said or did including snoring at night. The room was lovey, but it was hard to get a good nights sleep with so much noise. If you book the bungalow I would double check to see if you are in a shared duplex villa or an actual private bungalow.
The location was close to the public bus stops to go to Quepos or Manuel Antonio which was convenient! The included breakfast was simple but filling and a great way to start the day. We also enjoyed the dinner and cocktail offerings. The bed was comfy and the AC was great after a long day in the sun. The staff were very friendly and helpful and able to communicate well in Spanish and English, which we appreciated.

United KingdomProblems with the WiFi when we were there but they were actively trying to sort. All good after a few days. Lack of kitchen facilities in the room, just a fridge and sink. Coffee machine would be great.
Lovely, large dual aspect rooms. Balconies overlooking the garden and pool. Very helpful, polite staff, even sorted out our flat tyre on our rental car. Great food and cocktails. Plenty of wildlife in the gardens. 5 mins from the national park and beach, the bus stops outside. Great hot showers.

United KingdomWiFi was not great. Hotel is on a steep hill, no problem if you have a car or don't mind getting the bus but it's difficult to walk anywhere. No information in rooms re breakfast times, happy hour, check out times. Would benefit from having an information pack in room with above details and local attractions.
Big room. Friendly staff. Good parking. Good breakfast.

Costa RicaWe arrived late at night and expected to grab a bite after checking in (the restaurant supposedly closed at 9:30); however upon checking in around 9 they told us they had closed earlier that day, so we ended up not having anything to eat for dinner.
Staff were super friendly and accommodating. We travelled with our dogs, and they were very nice and eager to provide spaces for us to enjoy. The room was all we needed. We were just in front of the pool, but quite hours were always respected. Breakfast options were a bit limited, but food was really good.

United KingdomThe location wasn't great for us as we didn't have a car. It was only a 1min drive out of town but walking involved a very steep hill on a busy, bendy road with no pavement. WiFi wasn't very strong in our room but seemed fine elsewhere. It could be quite noisy in the evening/night with lots of dogs barking nearby.
The breakfast was nice and the cocktails at the bar were good. Pool was nice and it was lovely to have a balcony off our room.

Indonesiai read previous review that they only have one electrical plug under the tv! and it was true! sadly no electrical plug next to bed :(
the location was easy to find on map, easy to check in snd include breakfast also, the pool was also perfect they have toilet and shower next to it! Manuel Antonio itself is a weird beach, there were a lot of people near beach ask you a lot of money to park your car around the beach, i paid 5000 colones (8€) for park and another 5000 colones for umbrella and chair on the beach, The national park Manuel Antonio was so expensive around 60€ each person with or without guide! but the beach inside the national park is really nice! my favourite was the manuel antonio beach!
