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 reviewLovely elderly couple who own and manage the place. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Small room but clean and adequate with hot shower water. Perfect for a pitstop in David primarily because it is only 5 minutes walk from the main bus terminal where you get buses to/from Boquete, Volcan and Panama City. Bit farther out of town (c 15 min walk) but for me there wasn't much in David anyway
No restaurants really close by. Need to go to the town centre and you are advised to take a taxi if after dark

Verified reviewThe staff are absolutely incredible and go above and beyond to make you feel at home during your stay. After just one visit, the owners of Residence Coya became my friends. Also, the breakfast is made with organic and wholesome ingredients and the rooms are clean and comfortable. I had a great stay and would go back again!
I had a little trouble navigating to get there the first time I stayed. However, I have been back since and now no longer have any trouble with the navigation.

Verified reviewWe used this place as a stopover on our way to other parts of Panama. It was only a 10 minute walk to both the centre of David and the bus station. Puri and Jose went out of their way to make us feel welcome! Their place is definitely the cleanest place we've ever stayed at. The included breakfast was very fresh and healthy.

Verified reviewWe really liked Pura and Jose. They were so friendly and helpful. Jose made an amazing and very plentiful cold breakfast. They had nice touches in the room, like a full size bar of soap, liquid soap, bathmat, big closet. Good hot water. Nice rocking chairs outside the room on the terrace.
The room was small, dark and dated. The bed wasn’t the most comfortable, but wasn’t horrible. The area wasn’t safe to walk at night, but I’m not sure if all of David is like that. Same with the dogs barking at night.

Breakfast ist really nice!!! Thanks to the owner to all information, recommendations and your kindness!
David is the capital of the region and if you like to you can visit different places from here whereas David itself is not so interesting from the point of a tourist.
