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.).

SlovakiaThat was the best place, where I stayed in Panama. It’s just so perfect. Everything is clean and tidy, organized. The staff is so helpful, kind and smiling. The bar/restaurant it’s perfect. The common kitchen is well-equipped. I stayed in 6-female dormitory, everyday new towels, always cleaned up. The morning yoga class is cool too, at this place you can chill and relax, also easily connect with others. I can just highly recommend, super satisfied. Thanks again for the this experience!

United KingdomMy partner and I stayed in a cylinder tiny room (because all other private rooms were booked) which looked cool from the outside but had no fan, and was pretty inconvenient for two people (it's very small). It was also quite warm and had too little space to store anything since the room on the bottom is curved. Believe me after one night it gets pretty annoying, to not have any space at all. For the price you pay for them, I don't think they're worth it. The shared bathrooms and showers we're pretty gross. The shared bathrooms were always clogged even though they were getting cleaned quite often. I would definitely stay here again, but only in a private room (not in any room with shared toilets and shared showers).
The hotel has a cool vibe, great restaurant with lovely drinks and an amazing high quality breakfast. The design of the hotel with the river running through it is also quite nice (with lots of nice spaces to hang out in outdoors). The staff was friendly and booked us onto a tree trek tour. They also gave us lots of good recommendations for bars and places to eat in Boquete. The hotel also has a beautiful shared kitchen in the premises which I didn't use but I would use if I stayed here again.

United StatesThe cylinder was VERY tight - stored everything under the bed. It would be helpful to have some hooks on the wall.
Common areas were gorgeous!! Lots of seating/hammocks to enjoy the beautiful and tranquil spaces. Helpful staff and great central location. We stayed in one of the cylinder rooms - very unique and the bed was actually very comfortable.

GermanyDuring my stay it was really rainy and windy, it would be nice to have a area to stay inside and options to warm up a little bit.
The place is so comfortable and nice to stay. After a hike it's fantastic to relax there. Everything was super new and the dorms more than comfortable. Big beds, with sheds and a light.

United KingdomPerhaps fans for inside the cylinders as it is hot at night and we were right near the shared bathrooms so having the window open (it has a mossie net) meant we got all the light and noise from the shared bathrooms or were too hot! Maybe also if you could ask the Gardening team to not start gardening right outside the cylinders early in the morning that'd be nice. Getting woken up by sweeping seems to be a Central American thing :) More equipment in the kitchens needed.
We stayed in a cylinder room which was kinda cool and different (but actually a bit warm at night). Snug for two people but cute. We hadn't stayed at a Selina before so liked the vibe and decor, the communal kitchen was nice (could do with more of everything though - cutlery, crockery, tables!) but the outside spaces and the greenery and views were so lovely. I had hurt my foot so it was a great place to sit and chill.
