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.).

United StatesThe sheets didn’t seem very clean and towels very old, No hot water, the handles didn’t work and you couldn’t figure out which was the hot or cold. TV didn’t work. The air conditioning froze up every night and was loud. Our refrigerator didn’t work but they did get us a new one but that one wasn’t very cold. The front desk person when we came to book the room was very nice but spoke no English at all, so couldn’t answer any questions. Place needs some money into it, for up keep.
The location was nice, can be loud. The breakfast was delicious but needed to start earlier than 7:30, we couldn’t go to breakfast before leaving. Needs to start at least by 6-6:30 and extended to 10.

United KingdomThe advert for this hotel was deceptive and I regret not looking at the reviews on Trip advisor which would have alerted me. The rooms where dark and dingy and did not appear to have been decorated for over 20 years. The shower barely trickled tepid water and the noise from motorcycles on the road outside was very loud and obtrusive at all hours. The safe combination mechanism didn't work so they had to provide the master key. There was a coffee machine in the entrance that did not work. There were 2 electrical sockets by the bed and one of those didn't work. One of the only 2 low wattage lights in the room was plugged into that socket so they had to provide an adaptor so that we could charge our devices. The breakfast was very poor quality with the same sad looking scrambled eggs and hot dogs every day and a plate of old and blemished market reject fruit. The corridor leading to the breakfast room was a disgrace, it doubled as a staff smoking area so there were a couple of old stools and table and cigarette buts on the floor. The WIFI router was secured to the banister rail with cable ties I would rate it as a 2 star hotel at best and at $180 per night it was not cheap (which added to the feeling of disappointment). Either some serious money should be spent to update this hotel or the price should reflect the quality. We stayed at a far nicer hotel in El Tamarindo for $100 per night so £ 80 to £90 would have been a fairer price for this place.
The location was good for the beach and restaurants in town and we enjoyed the pool and the beach club that they permitted one to use when booking this hotel, they at least were up to expectations. Unfortunately they were a long way from the hotel and quite impractical to get to unless you had a car which luckily we did.

United KingdomWhat a nightmare to find! Even knowing where it was I drove past it 5 times and still didn't find it. I ended up parking close by and walking to where it was in order to find the very inconspicuous entrance - the hotel is actually behind the parade of shops with just a narrow entrance between them. We specifically booked a room with a fridge and the one in the room when we arrived didn't work and was replaced, presumably with one taken from another room. One of the bedside lamps didn't work either. That was remedied by the staff member wiggling and tapping the socket the plug was pushed into.....
Good breakfast at the eating establishment adjacent to the hotel, at no additional cost. Really comfy bed.

United Statesthe portions were very limited during breakfast. We order the food as we arrive but it was still cold. At the room, the soap was the cheap one that if did not feel like soap. The parking lot was up hill unpaved and dusty.
Well, I like the fact that the stay includes the breakfast. That was a good deal. It had AC. the room had two comfortable beds. there were no bugs. The hotel is in the downtown area that you could walk down to the restaurants.

United StatesThe bar across the street on weekend nights had loud music playing until 2-3 am. The lock on the door was flimsy. Looks like other rooms had upgraded keycard locks- not mine. Safe battery was dead- couldn’t use. The menu of damages next to the bed was classy.
Clean hotel in the heart of Coco beach. Lots of restaurants and shops really close.

Should have stayed where we were parked on the street to bring in our luggage before parking in the lot.

United StatesSome of the staff members seem aggravated. Didn’t smile or greet you. Breakfast was very basic. Plan on eating out. Loud music until 6am again if you’re there to party you would enjoy the atmosphere
If you like a heavy tourist area with loud music, variety of shopping and restaurants then this spot is in the heart of it all. The beach is a 5 min walk. However coco beach is ash like dark sand. So the water is muddy. But there’s live music on the beach at the restaurant. Vendors etc. room was clean. Breakfast was ok. Very basic.
