How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe rooms were very clean and tidy and had good air conditioning. We had good contact with the staff. Breakfasts were beautifully presented and catered to our tastes. The hotel property and gardens were very well presented and created a relaxing atmosphere.
Confusion over the booking - twin beds were listed and requested by us but were not available. We were under the impression that there was a community cooking area but this was not the case, there is only a shared fridge/freezer. We were charged extra at the facility to have access to a cooking area and an individual bed, although this was just a sofa and not a bed at all.

Verified reviewWe had wonderful and peacful stay at the hotel. Rooms are very cosy and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, delicious and served like a piece of art. The hosts were great, very helpful and polite. They told us some useful information about Samara, where to leave our car to keep it safe in the city center, etc.

Verified reviewThis place is exceptional; we were welcomed by Laura to this beautifully landscaped oasis. Everything was spotless, beds were comfortable and the accommodation well planned. Emmanuel served a different gourmet breakfast presented like a work of art every day and was kind and attentive. Howler monkeys came to raid the mango trees across the street one morning and gave us a great show. Local beaches are gently graded, with soft pale sands and fringed with palm trees. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Verified reviewThis place is a gem. Very quiet neigborhood except for the Sound of wildlife, which we liked and expected. The staff is topshelf and the hostess Jenna constantly went an extra mile for her guests regarding tours and local places. The breakfast is in a league of its own. Different every morning. We Will absolutely return. Highly recommendable.

Verified reviewVery nice hotel, with separate villas or small buildings that share one wall and the Hammack with the neibouring suite. Quite, relaxing, convenient placed to hear and see the howler monkeys. It has a common area where breakfast is served, and a shared fridge. We liked it there, and we were so fortunate to see a family of monkeys just a few meters away from the hotel, with babies, travelling towards the forest. It was quite an experience.

Verified reviewI enjoyed my stay at Hotel Villas Tangerine tremendously. The entire staff was friendly, helpful, and very professional. I looked forward to the breakfast every morning, prepared and served in a perfect setting, overlooking a picturesque field. The room was great; great bed, great shower, and great air conditioning. And an excellent pool in an oasis like setting. I would return.
Nothing to dislike.
