Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United StatesThe beds were pretty hard, and the shower could have drained a little better.
Pool was clean, relatively large, and a good temperature. The included breakfast was great. The staff was excellent - super helpful in answering my questions and patient with my stilted Spanish.

Right from the time I checked in until I checked out I was treated very well by staff members. The room was clean and comfortable. I requested early check in and that was not an issue. Thank You

GermanyOur rooms (not all of them) faced the direction of the street and therefore some of the passing motorcycles or cars made a lot of noise that made it hard to sleep at night. The rooms are all in all functional, nothing more nothing less.
The garden is very pretty, the iguanas are fun to watch and the pool is refreshing and in late afternoon it is in the shades. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Costa RicaThe wifi kept disconnecting. The walls and floors were dirty. Other guests spoke loudly and played music on their phone outside my room for 3 hours (7pm -10pm). I told hotel staff but they did not say anything. My parents who were next door and could hear everything said no one came by. I had to tell these guests to be quiet on my own thankfully they complied. The courtyard was in clear decline, with the paint on the wooden posts along the corridors was chipping away, and the posts themselves were cracked or missing. The courtyard also looked poorly kept and dirty. It's really a shame because this property has a lot of potential.
The rooms looked modern and updated. The bathroom had hot water. The AC worked perfectly. The courtyard was beautiful at night.

CanadaWish they had the fridge in the room.
Nice relaxing place with a beautiful garden space. (We stayed in March so it was dry but could easily imagine how amazing it would be in the different time of the year) The room was simple, clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice and helpful. Very convenient location just off the highway, right next to two super markets, and lots of places to eat within walking distance.

GermanyThe ambiente is more of a motel. The WiFi was not very strong in our room.
The room was clean and the bed was very comfy. The shower had good pressure. It's located near a bigger road, so it's easy to stop by when traveling towards the beaches. The pools look nice, but we did not use them.

Costa RicaInitially we were given room 37. An extremely noisy air conditioner unit caused us to return to the front desk to ask for another room. We were given room 36. Room 37 was given to another client without the a/c unit being repaired. The noise was lessened for us, however we cannot the new client enjoying the noise.
