Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaNoise from the road/dogs/people in the morning. Just bring earplugs !
I had a great time at gypsy ranch. Its family run, affordable, the room was basic but comfortable, and the hosts were lovely. Lots of friendly dogs and cats on property. Special thanks to Angelito who helped me out when I stepped on an urchin at the beach and took all the spines out of my foot! Im forever grateful :)

ItalyThe cleaning could be improved, having a lot of dogs around makes the garden needing constant check. It was getting smelly sometimes.
Location is very good if you want to surf in Encuentro beach. Also, being on the main street makes it very easy to catch public transportation (Guaguas, motochonchos, carritos publicos, they all pass in front of the structure door every 5 minutes): in this way, you can get to Sosua, Puerto Plata, Cabarete, Rio San Juan in a very straightforward way. Staff is always nice, smiley and available at all time. The room has the basic comfort (+ a very useful mosquito net, I was not bothered by mosquitos at all!)

Czech RepublicWe had really bad luck because night was really hot it is something you can get used to in DR but what was the worst experience in the night was couple in next door... They were really loudly especially she... and because the building is made from wood you can feel all the moves around so we felt ourself like in orgy... luckily he wasn't that good so it was just 5 minutes job. After 3 hours they started with some SM plays?! Knocking to the wall did not help. Unfortunately it was our worst night on the island. Don't go there if you value your privacy.
Friendly stuff, nice surrounding with dogs and cats, small swimming pool, a lot of place to sit

Staff were really nice and helpful. They were accommodating when I needed to add an extra night. Private room was clean and a 10 minute walk to Playa Encuentro. Good price and good stay!

United States of AmericaI was bitten by one of the dogs. It wasn’t a friendly bite. It was a vicious bite done completely unprompted. I was simply walking to my room when the dog attacked from behind. I had hoped the dog would be put away for the remainder of my stay, but it was not. Fortunately, I had begun carrying a stick with me when leaving the room because it charged again the next day. Had it not been for my threatening the dog with a large tree branch it would’ve bitten again. Some people have dogs that bite, some people own public hotels. You can’t have both. What terrified me as much as the possibility of the dog biting my wife was that the staff chose to do nothing with the dog after the initial attack.
Leaving the hostel.

CanadaA lovely family runs this place, and you'll be given the chance to share their home and enjoy the company of their dogs and cats. Nathalie and Cindy are very helpful and make you feel that you're at home. This is a very good spot for surfers because you are in a walking distance (a beautiful road) to the best spot for surfing in the area. I would recommend this place and would stay again.

GermanyThe name is a disaster in the first place. I mean you wouldn't name a place with the N word either. How would that be N* Farm? But okay you don't mind I didn't I needed somewhere to sleep. Maybe you get sleep if you are drunk enough or bring noise cancelling headphones. The street is very loud and basically passing through the garden. But sometimes the other guests are louder. Or maybe it's just that this place has paper walls and you can basically here whatever they say, even in the next room. But that way you don't get bored when the WiFi doesn't work. You can just listen to the movie they are watching. It just gets a little weird when they are you know... Doing it. And shaky. Well but it was very clean and the people who run it are super kind.
It's great cause it was cheap and available.
