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.).

NetherlandsBeach towels cost $2 a day and since the pool loungers heat up so much and there are no beach beds, you really need them. The AC works only with a key, which is locked at the room key, so if one person locks up and leaves the other is either locked out or sweating inside. They also ask for a $100 deposit per room (the only place on our three‑week Costa Rica trip to do so), and there’s no on‑site breakfast. None of this is a real deal‑breaker, but worth knowing!
Nice place. Mornings on the beach, afternoons by the pool on the beds and cushions. The beach and good spots like Eat Street or local sodas are just a five/ten minute walk away. Our room had a large bed and a small fridge, which was convenient. For my parents’ 30th anniversary, the staff added some sweet decorations in the room — a really kind touch.

United Statesthe property had big rooms, adequate kitchen, and great location (beach access across the street and a 2 minute walk down to the water). There was also plenty of restaurants we could walk to as well as a small grocery store. The pool was great for our family. the staff were very friendly and helpful. we could hear music from nearby bars late into the evening but it didn’t disturb us. would recommend for families!

Chilethe road up the villas is not paved, so it would be nice if they had a golf cart or some kind of “transportation” to bring the luggage to the room easily. It didn’t have a place to have breakfast or just chill with other people; only the pool.
Pretty much everything. The location is perfect if you want something a little more relaxed within Sta Teresa, but still close to everything. great staff and great villas.

IsraelWe felt really disappointed about this hotel it did not meet our expectations: 1- the location is not the best far from the downtown and closest supermarket is 500m 2- standard room is far from entrance we could not even park close and walking up and down the hill many times per day not very pleasant 3- the cleaning was ok but bad smell coming from the toilet they tried to fix it but not enough also our toilet windows was next to the laundry so people were talking and noisy all the time 4- the pool was not clean we didn’t even use it 6- in general it needs some renovations only one way to go to second floor so people had to walk through our room 5- the stuff got in my room when I was waking a shower and in general not the best in response with reception.
