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.).

Romania-the position advertised on booking is not accurate. The hotel is 500m away from that position, but still a good area, with private beach. -food could be better -personnel insists on calling a taxi, which will then charge you almost 10 usd for 2-3km /2 miles.
-clean private beach -big rooms -nice personnel -comfortable beds -big internal/private pool, sun beds -free parking

PeruThe beach outside the hotel vicinity was heavily polluted with debris and plastic in general. Even though it may not be in the responsibility of the hotel, the hotel must push the municipality to have this tidied up.
Very well situated, pool area and buildings very nice

United StatesPoor variaty of seafood. The clams were not hot or cold, they got bad, luckily i didn't get food poison from eating them. I'm not sure if they know that seafood has to be within a temperature range or it would go bad. I was hoping to eat some shrimp, but it was never on the buffet. There is a lot of potential in there also a lot of opportunities.
The rooms were very comfortable. The price was very affordable. The staff were very helpful all the time, always willing to help.

United StatesWe would have loved snack and drink service poolside and on the beach. Room was adequate but could have been more spacious. Safe for personal valuables was broken and rusty.
Loved the beach and the size of the resort- everything was close by, a short walk. Loved the Mediterranean restaurant

United StatesCurrently undergoing renovations in certain areas. Some of the facilities needed updating and extensive cleaning. The shower drains weren’t that good so the water would build up. The VIP lounge is a vibe but should be Adults only. That’s what we expected when we booked the VIP package but we still enjoyed it.
The location was close to the airport and surrounding local areas. The staff was amazing especially Jamaliee with guest services. The food experience with the exception of the specialty dining started out blah the first day but definitely got better by the end of our stay. The mediterranean and Brazilian restaurants were delicious.

Dominican RepublicHad a couple encounters with staff where I was disrespected or spoken to with attitude . Sometimes I would ask questions and the staff would say rude things in Spanish that may be because I am white skin but fully Dominican so I definitely understood what was being said . In the Mexican Restaurant , called Órale at the resort the guy taking our order did not even let me finish ordering completely and he quickly left and when I called him back he said if I didn’t get to order or look at the menu in time it was over . I Feel this is so disrespectful especially for a place you have to make a reservation there to eat . Anywhere you make a reservation I expected high respect and good service . Me and my wife were very disappointed . Also the communication between the staff is nonexistent I was told at the lobby to go to the vip lounge so I can make a next day reservation for a restaurant and when I arrived at the vip lounge I was told reservations were not made at the vip lounge . It was very much a waste of time . The night prior we did not get to make a reservation because the front desk people said reservations were made at 9am and when we got there they were fully booked for all restaurants. We then asked someone else and found out reservations start at 8 am . These people need to work on their communication and do their job better . Besides that everything else was good.

Dominican RepublicThe check-in process was very slow, more personal is needed to avoid long lines. Our rooms weren't ready when they gave us the keys, and there were issues with the phone, tv and coffee machine in the room, but they sent staff to fix these.
The beach and pool were great, as well as the rooms. The instalations were really clean and well organized.
