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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United StatesFor El Valle de Anton: We spent 2 nights at Patti’s home. We were hosted in her apartment that is really cozy and stylish. Very comfortable bed and large windows with a wonderful view of the mountains and lush forest. Her bookshelf is amazing and made such a wonderful impression. The kitchen is well furnished with the essentials and we used it with great pleasure. The downtown center is relatively close (~30mins) for those that do not mind walking. We visited “La India Dormida” from there early in the morning and saw some beautiful birds and butterflies. We also enjoyed “El Pastoreo”, a very nice trail-loop close to her property that reaches higher up in the mountain nearby and where you can admire the whole Valle de Anton with an exceptional view. The driveway is very steep but we didn’t have any problems walking it. Valle de Anton is conveniently reachable from Panama city in about 3 hours with buses every ~30 mins. Thank you so much Patti for making our trip such a memorable adventure. We hope to be back one day and enjoy more of your beautiful place.

PanamaThe walk to get there is a bit steep. There are stairs too but they can be a bit slippery.
Amazing view. The owner was very accomodating, and has a binder with useful tips and phone numbers of places and things to do around El Valle. Since it's a bit hard to actually get to the room from where you park, the owner will assist with your luggage both on arrival and as you depart. The room was clean and very comfy. A well equipped kitchen as well.

PanamaEverything was great!
The private house was amazing! It's pretty much in the middle of the woods, and there's a great chance you get the see exotic birds on the balcony of the house. Patty, the host, was amazing and very welcoming, she had already previously contacted me and gave me instructions about the house and its location, very professional. I will definitely be returning to this place this summer, it's a great place for couples!

AustriaWe received towels in the beginning and spent three nights there. After some time the towels didnt really dry properly and stayed damped. But I'm sure we could have asked for fresh towels. A hair dryer might also be nice (maybe i overlooked it?)
Patty is a very nice host. We really enjoyed our stay in Valle de Anton. the house is a bit rustic but that is already visible in the photos and part of the charm. Generally i would recommend to book the loft (upstairs) if you like bird watching. We put fruit in the feeder downstairs and hardly saw any bird. While on the upstairs balcony there were lots of birds without food :) Unfortunately the upstairs room wasnt available when we booked, but then ended up being empty the whole time while we were there. I really like that some basic cooking things were in the kitchen like coffee, oil, salt etc. there is also a big oven - a lot of vacation rentals dont have that.

GermanyLa Chachalaca is such a beautiful spot in the jungle to spend some days in Valle de Anton. The view from the rooms and from the terrace is just wonderful and you can see a lot of birds and other animals in the garden. Patti is one of the nicest persons, she gave us food for the birds and was always there if we needed something. Definitely recommend that place.

VenezuelaWe spent one of the most spectacular holidays at La Chachalaca, away from the noise and the everyday rush of city life. It is the perfect place for a mountain getaway. La Chachalaca is nested in the forested hills of El Valle de Antón, in a small, secluded valley, not too far from the town, and a hiking trail with amazing vistas. Accomodations are beyond cozy and lovely, and our host was beyond friendly and helpful. Their garden is absolutely gorgeous. We watched a stunning sunset. We saw clouds fly above our heads and stars shine in a blanket of jet. We spotted oropendolas, toucans and hummigbirds from our balcony. Highly recommended; you will fall in love with this place!

CanadaEverything was perfect.
The Chachalaca is a paradise to return to after the wonderful hiking trails in El Valle. The location is perfect away from the traffic and roosters of other spots with only the smoothing sounds of nature to lull you asleep. The apartment is well equipped, the bed comfortable with quality linen, and Patty the hostess is terrific. We'd stay here again.
