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.).

GermanyThe staff were really nice at the hotel. Everyone smiling and nice. Alicia at the reception was super helpful with the bookings and recommendations. The room was quite big and everything was really comfortable. The food at the hotel is worth attention. A lot of different places around but it's worth to check the dishes in the restaurant!

My son asked for spaghetti with seafood , we waited for an hour and they gave it to another client. In addition, the next day i ordered omelet with vegetables. They bring it with ham so i left my plate and went out to my room.

CanadaOur room had no balcony or patio, just overlooked the office, but that was our fault for not reading our reservations and they were fully booked so couldn't move us. Honestly we didn't mind because we were hardly in our room, but if that's important to you, I would suggest looking at your reservation closely to make sure you don't get that room (most of the rooms had patios, ours was one of the few that didn't). Also, we didn't have a fridge in our room which would have been nice to have but we just picked up ice at the local store.
The complimentary breakfast was excellent, as was every meal we had at the restaurant, outside overlooking the beach. The resort is small but we hardly left it because they had everything we needed and the food was so good we didn't really want to try anywhere else. The staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and even helped with tour suggestions. The rooms were very clean and comfortable but we hardly were in it, we walked the beach forever and sat at the pool.

CanadaDont go for a basic room - a balcony is certainly worth it. No complaints.
The proximity to the beach is wonderful - it was a very relaxing few days. The pool was very welcome and did not get too busy, and the food in the restaurant was also very good. The cocktails were great too!

We had probably the best room in the place, overlooking the beach on the 1st floor, 2 balconies. Therefore it was perfect, great staff….really friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast, fab cocktails in happy hours and a perfect place to relax. We didn’t go to Jaco as intended, there was no need to leave the hotel with its pool and beach.
