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.).

United KingdomThe price of the tours and food is expensive so stay here but eat and book activities elsewhere.
The wildlife we saw here was fabulous. Coatis and capuchins everywhere. The pool is lovely and the location easy to get to places.

United KingdomThe rooms did over look a small garden and stream but no seats to sit out and it was very small so it was a shame more wasn’t made of that. Our rooms were close to reception and as this, the restaurant and bar are all open plan noise carried easily to the bedrooms on this corridor.
Lovely restaurant and food. The company ethos of sustainability. Location for Monteverde parks for wildlife and walkable into the town. Friendly staff.

SerbiaBreakfast! Even though very delicious and tasty for the price we paid it should be possible to order a la cart whatever you want or to organize a buffet. Something to work on it.
The most wonderful stuff ever. Super helpful and informative. They made our stay so memorable! Also we simply LOVED our bed, linen, sheets, pillows….guys, seriously, could you please let us know how to buy them? Thanks

United Statesthe laundry services are too expensive (but that's across all of Costa Rica). the restaurant gives you a receipt with an 'extra tip' line which is kinda misleading, because they already take 10% tip automatically, and they don't mention it to you. in other places they mentioned this explicitly.
Probably our best hotel in Costa Rica! (we were in 5 different hotels, and this was the best one). Right when you enter - the building is beautiful, and the rooms are also cozy, super clean, and very pleasant. The restaurant is insanely good, and decently priced - we ate there almost every day for breakfast (included!) and dinner. The one time we tried to eat in another place we regretted it because the hotel's restaurant was so much better. Staff is also super nice, and gave us great advices on what tours to do and what to skip. To keep it short - just book it! I highly recommend this place - we really loved it!

The property is absolutely gorgeous and the rooms are very comfortable and clean. The hotel is beautiful and the food at the restaurant very delicious. Every morning they offer a complementary breakfast which is absolutely fabulous. The property has walking trails and you can see alot of the wild life on the property. The staff is very friendly and helpful and go above and beyond to help with anything you may need. Would definitely visit again.
