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.).

Costa RicaThere were limited television options. The sofa was position under the television, so we had to move the sofa to a more convenient location.
This was a great place to stay with our family. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. We arrived late (after the reception desk closed) and were given very helpful guidance on how to enter the hotel after hours. We enjoyed breakfast by the pool. Service was outstanding.

CanadaTransportation is required to most places. If able, I would suggest renting a car because it makes getting around a bit more tedious. With that being said, everyone was very helpful with helping to plan rides and call taxi's. One suggestion would be to have a daily shuttle that makes trips to places like Tamarindo or drop offs to the beach/ spots, Moonlight market etc and attractions in the area. A few more options for breakfast would be lovely as well.
Writing this on behalf of my parents, who I booked this hotel for - They were happy with their stay at this hotel. The grounds were immaculately kept, customer service was excellent, room was comfortable! They enjoyed their stay in Costa Rica.

United StatesYou will need a car to get around. There was no restaurant on the property except a limited breakfast option. We were there during off season. I was told they have a breakfast buffet during the busier times. There are good restaurant options nearby that you can drive to.
It is a very nice property with a nice pool and very clean rooms. The staff is great

CanadaWe didn't have a car therefore the following 2 points were of importance to us. We were told the nearest beach was within walking distance. It would be if there were sidewalks. We did it once and took us a very long time as we had to walk in the ditch. We didn't risk our lives again. We booked this hotel because it has a restaurant and bar. To find out it was only open for breakfast therefore we had to taxi into town every day
the property was peaceful and very well maintained. The rooms were lovely with adequate balcony. Comfortable beds

Costa RicaNot unlike most of Guanacaste, the road leading to the property gets awfully dark. We were there just before the new moon so no light at all. On that note, at 6:30 pm I missed the hotel entrance twice which I identified a million times better during the day. So whilst there could be more signs or lights, I could have also paid more attention
The property is beautiful I was surprised, it feels like an ancient colonial building not unlike Antigua Guatemala. The rooms were more than Ok for the price, comfortable beds (even the couch). They told us the pool would be closed so we got a room upgrade. it wasn’t closed which was great to find after driving five hours from San Jose to rest there. If you go by 4x4, there is a ton of secluded nice beaches (especially playa Minas)
