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 KingdomThe breakfast is nice but not very filling. A slice of bread or banana might have been a nice extra touch. I felt like they could have been more informative with information about things to do
The lady that worked there was friendly, and so was the other guests

ColombiaIn the garden/lounge area, as lovely as the music was, sometimes it was a bit loud.
The hotel is located in a quiet street, away from the seediness and noise. Sleeping with the window open, all I could hear was crickets, birds chirping and waves lapping. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the big supermarket where you can get pretty much everything. It was great to have breakfast in tge garden. The lovely hostess cooked rice with beans, fried egg and plantains + plus tea or coffee as self-service. There's a big and very clean fridge that you use to keep your food. The pool is small, but clean and refreshing. And the beach is really close - about 5 minutes on foot. Really convenient!

United KingdomPool was meant to close at 10 but was shut down 20 mins early. The fan in the room attached to the ceiling couldn’t be adjusted (anything less than the maximum turned it off), and due to having the bed that wasn’t a bunk with its own fan, it was pretty powerful and cold at times
Nice pool and outside areas, staff were friendly, the included breakfast was delicious!

PanamaI loved my stay here, I felt very comfortable, it’s a safe and quiet area, perfect for those who have a car and want rest. The hostel is close to ‘El Miro’ (10mins walk to the entrance of the hike). The kitchen its very nice for those who likes cooking, they have plenty of space in the kitchen area. The pool is great after a long day by the beach. The breakfast they include it’s delicious and very filling.

United StatesNot on the host but Costa Rica goes to bed early. The sun is down by 6 pm and quiet hours are observed shortly after through the night. A few times the pool and facilities would shut down early if no one was using them. This could be a bother on occasion if we didn't arrive back at the room until after things had been shut down at 7pm vs the 10pm time posted.
The breakfast was a Costa Rican typical fare. The host served the same breakfast daily. This was fine with myself and friends as we were able to cook and add things like sausage to our plates if desired ~
