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.).

CanadaIt's a beautiful place, the kitchen isn't crowded, I was able to cook and relax as well. It's a quiet place, close to everything. The person who helped us was very friendly and kind. We arrived a bit earlier then check in time and she had already prepared our room, made me very happy. Both Susan and Samantha are awesome. Susan asked me a day before what time I'd arrive, after our check out, she let us leave our things in the office, weal we waited for our bus to arrive. There is a mini fridge in the room, where we were able to store a lot of things in it. They clean the room everyday. It's located in the middle of the town, walking distance from a bac bank, grocery stores, restaurants, bars. We were able to see monkeys. It's a beautiful place. It's an expensive town, i eat out a lot but I also cooked. I didn't mind eating out but if you're on a budget, its best to cook. It's an average of 25 000 colones for two per meal including possibly 2 drinks, depending on what you get. Roughly 20$ to 30$ a meal, excluding drinks. Just a little tip I wanted to add.

great cabins circling a nice little pool. big trees dotted around with monkeys lazing on the branches. Staff were great. really cool and helpful. Susan organised me a taxi to Brasilito for a great price. The German owner was cleaning the leaves out the pool in the evening as it had been very windy. Very personable place. Next to a supermarket, next to the mercadito and the skate park. Altogether a great place in Tamarindo.

United StatesMy friend needed thicker pillow, but mine was fine, so I guess more pillows :)
This hotel is actually cuter in person then the pictures posted. There are individual villas/casitas, so you have privacy at all times. Plush vegetation and decor make it very picturesque. We swam in the ocean every day, so didn't use the pool, but saw few people at times in it. Samantha at front desk is amazing and very knowledgeable to point you with any information needed. Full kitchen available if you want to make your food. Great location and only 1 block from main street and 2 blocks to the beach.

United KingdomMaybe there needs to be a bit of sealing in the room. saying that you absolutely can't totally avoid this in Costa Rica. Quite a few ants got in, but it was quickly sorted.
fantastic location, feels isolated but is in the centre of town. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was huge. The pool was frequently empty, so we had it to ourselves. Nature all around you and certainly not noisy despite where it is. This is an absolute plus for me and many others. There are a couple of sweet resident cats just to give the heads up for cat lovers or haters.

CanadaMy only criticism is that the mattresses are very hard. Of course, this is a question of personal preference.
This is a beautiful and quiet oasis in the center of a busy town. Quiet, that is, except for the howler monkeys in the tree by our unit. The staff is superb, the pool is refreshing, and the beach and restaurants are very close at hand.

CanadaThe frying pans in the kitchen are too old so it is too difficult to cook eggs in them without having them stick. A dresser for clothes would be handy in the bedroom.
The location was handy because it was close to the beach as well as restaurants and shops. We liked the tropical feel with the palm trees and resident iguana. We wished that we would have seen the monkeys too! We also liked that it was quiet with a smaller number of guests rather than a large noisy hotel.

United StatesWe were told we could do laundry since we were staying more than a few days. It could have been my own ignorance, but I was surprised how expensive a small load of laundry was. We most likely would not have used that service if I had known before.
Well equipped communal kitchen with complimentary coffee. Nice pool area! The pool and pool chairs were always looking very clean and inviting. The mattress was not the most comfortable, but also far from the worst mattress I’ve ever slept on. The front desk ladies and security and cleaning ladies, etc. were all incredibly sweet and helpful. All of our neighbors were very nice and friendly, and noise was not an issue. Location was perfect - right in the city center surrounded by shops, restaurants, and a grocery store right next door, the beach was <5min walk.
