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.).

Me and my family really enjoyed the staying here and surelly we will come back. The restaurant is a great option for breakfast and dinner. Portions are big, the prices are more than affordable, meals are delicious. Staff is friendy and attentive.100% recommended!

United StatesThe only thing I wish is that the hobbit house had air conditioning or a bigger/stronger fan. I think most people would be fine, I just happen to run hot ;-)
We stayed in the hobbit house and it was so cute with a lovely view and the privacy of a little porch. The room and bathroom were bigger than I expected. It was so so cute! The restaurant had great views and a lovely breeze. The staff was amazing! The front desk reception helped us many times and they helped with a smile! The rooms were cleaned everyday and we were given fresh towels which was so nice! There was laundry service which saved my life! I would definitely stay again and highly recommend!

The little Hobbit home huts were amazing, so was the location, on a small hill, overlooking a dark green coffee plantation. We really loved the view from the terrace. Also, there were fish swimming around in the castle moat, which was fun.

United StatesWe love to walk, so we walked the 2.4 miles each way to town every day, even though the trip back gains several hundred feet in elevation. Perhaps they could offer a twice a day shuttle to Boquete.
The view is stunning, the staff are adorable and kind and helpful. Just very sweet people. The room was more like a cabin which was spacious, well equipped, quiet and comfortable. The pool was cool but usable, the Jacuzzi was great after a full day of activities and walking. The restaurant/bar was clean, the food and drink was just fine. The coffee was amazing. The grounds are pleasant and easy to walk.

United KingdomJust be aware that it is not located in the center of the town, so when in town make sure to do everything you need (groceries, ATM, restaurants etc..) before going up to the castle (the taxi is 4/5$ each way)
The castle is absolutely gorgeous and has all the amenities for you to enjoy your stay : a nice pool, a hot jacuzzi, a shared kitchen to prepare your food. The staff is nice and helpful as they helped organized tours and shuttle The room was cleaned and bathroom too.

PolandNoisy people in adjacent room as the walls are not sound proof enough
In general I liked it. Quiet with a nice view although they had some construction going on it was ok for us as the hours of works were non disturbing.It is a cosy place , remote location from the Boquete town but easy to order a taxi ( sometimes they charge for a ride 4$ sometimes 6$.I think it is a walking distance to town as well. It is nice to have a breakfast at the balcony with a view. The triple room was basic ( but this is what I expected) but with comfy beds. Few things needs maintenance in a bathroom- robinet , leaking toilet flush. Overall It was a good choice for us for 3 days to explore Boquete surroundings. I like also the common kitchen located at the swimming pool level. I am addicted to evening herbal tea, so I could prepare it myself. Also a plus when you travel with kids, it is convenient to prepare sth. outside of restaurant hours.

AustraliaJacuzzi overlooking kitchen where people cook food gives a bit of a strange feeling. Adding a light wall between the two may help.
They have the best knowledge about the tours. For example, Indian Vieja, or Baru volcano - can get a bus for $9 to hike start, or a jeep all the way to the top, for $125.
