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 reviewIt was an oasis away from the hustle bustle
Thank you very much for your comment Michael. Just to improve our service to our guest, can you explain why you put an 8 for global rating, but a 10 in every specific rating? Thank you so much, and wish you a safe back in your home.

Verified reviewReally liked how private Casa Mapache was. Loved the idea of being able to make our meals in ' ranchero' they have near the pool. Was a little concerned at first of its location because we didn't have a car, but UBER was excellent. Only 15 minutes into Tamarindo. Our hosts went out way to be helpful, and pool staff worked very hard to keep grounds immaculate. Room was very spacious and large bathroom. No regrets AT ALL with Casa Mapache.
Thank you so much Barbara for such a nice comment. It was a pleasure to receive you. And we wish you the best for you and your husband.

Verified reviewThe room was beautiful, the common spaces (kitchen, outdoor area) were beautiful. The pool was perfect! There was so much thought put into this place and everything was so pretty.
You need a car to get around comfortably but if not, ride share is very easy to get!

Verified reviewThis place was really amazing! The rooms feel very luxurious and stylish and the bed is exceptionally comfortable. The pool and garden is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful to relax in. The shared kitchen is also very nice! The owners are so friendly and kind. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Thank you for such a relaxing stay! We wish we could have stayed longer.

Verified reviewIt was so nice to spend a few days in this calm oasis after coming from the busy centre of Tamarindo. Rooms are very spacious and the beds are so comfortable. You have a nice patio area outside the front of each room to relax and listen to the birds and animals outside. The shared kitchen is huge and has everything you would need. Large and secure parking spaces. The owners are a lovely couple who are so welcoming and take the time to get to know you and make sure you are enjoying your stay. They also have lovely little dogs and cats. Merci beaucoup! :)
Would have preferred a door to the bathrooms rather than just a curtain.
Thank you very much for your comment James. When we read such appreciation, you give us even more desire and courage to improve ourselves. We wish you the best.

Verified reviewI love that its a gated and once inside its like a little oasis, I love the way the bed was made. The hospitality industry still going trough adversities and post lockdown they are coming up with new ideas that make guess feel more relax and comfortable and easy on the pocket, Ygal as done an excellent job restoring the premises. the wildlife that comes around is a welcome bonus also.
The things I see that need some easy improvement is the partition glass in the shower the calcification on it needs to be look after as well as the chrome fixtures in the bathroom also a privacy curtain by the window, other than that its an awesome place to stay an it will be one of my choices again on my next travel to Costa Rica.
