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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

LuxembourgRoad and rail noise is quite loud and starts early. Not much the hotel can do about that but quite room dependent and not great for light sleepers.
Staff and breakfast were amazing. They even served breakfast early to accommodate our early departure. Beds were super comfy and they offered a refund for one night when some of our group were delayed arriving. Location is great for wandering by foot and there are plenty of food and drink options near by.

United StatesWe had two rooms, one was just a little too small. While this is not really a 'don't like', guests should be aware that parking is difficult at the place. The hotel offered us a space in their garage, which was a tight, but in the end very acceptable. I recommend travelers to call the hotel in advance to make arrangements.
The family really enjoyed the breakfast. Their bread and coffee are great and the breakfast room is really nice! The staff is very pleasant, and the accommodation is clean. It's very well positioned if you intend to visit the gold museum or the national theater. You can easily reach those on foot.

United KingdomNothing, we were very happy with our stay
We stayed at Casa 69 on a number of occasions on our trip to Costa Rica as used it as a base when travelling though San Jose. Such a lovely accommodation close to the centre of San Jose. Beautiful breakfast which sadly we could only enjoy once due to leaving early for trips. Winston was a helpful and attentive host and helped organise taxi transfer to and from airport as well as keeping our luggage when we visited Tortuguero. The rooms were lovely and spacious with nice artwork and decor throughout. Would highly recommend for anyone staying in San Jose.

Staff were brilliant and so helpful exactly what you need when you first arrive in a country. They organised our cabs and really helped us navigate the city. The rooms are spacious and excellent value for money. Most people stay in San Jose to travel through and this is the perfect accommodation to do this. I really recommend. Breakfast was exceptional!!

AustriaRight next to the Hotel was a train track and the trains honked loudly when passing by, but they didn't drive through the whole night so we could sleep alright. Also parking isn't possible for bigger vehicles, but they could redirect us to a nearby parking lot with a discount.
The staff was exceptionally friendly, welcoming and helpful. We really loved the decorations inside and outside and plants as well as the great and freshly made breakfast. The room had everything we needed and you have a nice view from the rooftop.

United KingdomThe hotel is a lovely oasis in central San Jose. The large rooms are comfortable and quiet. Breakfast is tasty and sets you up for the day. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Winston runs the place and was always quick to communicate before and during my stay in Costa Rica. We used Hotel Casa 69 each night between our tours. Winston sorted transport to and from the airport and we left luggage at the hotel when we visited Corcovado. The hotel is very secure and has banks and restaurants nearby.

Special thanks to Justin for being especially helpful and friendly during my stay, and also to Winston and the rest of the team, you’re all amazing! I also really enjoyed the breakfast each morning, it was a great way to start the day and I loved experiencing a typical Costa Rican breakfast 😊 Thank you for the great hospitality.
