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 host was very helpful and friendly, it was a nice place to arrive in Costa Rica. We felt very safe and we got a lot of advice for our trip in Costa Rica. The proximity to the airport was a plus, there was even a free taxi service to the airport, which made this stay even more wonderful.

Verified reviewHosts were so kind and helped us with car rental, and general info on Costa Rica. Great breakfast. A very good start for first-timers in this beautiful country.
There is some noise at the hotel due to its location close to the airport, road and railway. On the other hand, transportation to and from the airport is almost within walking distance.

Verified reviewRoom was good, bed was comfortable, shower was hot. The breakfast was good and the host was very friendly. We picked it because of the breakfast included and free airport transfer.
Very noisy road, and was on the flight path so was woken up several times by the planes.

Verified reviewFriendly, helpful, clean, comfortable. For leaving or entering the country, it couldn't be more convenient. Easy walk to small markets to pick up necessities. As a single female traveler, the free transportation to the airport with a friendly driver is a terrific bonus.
Having a second option for breakfast, such as cereal or oatmeal, would be good.

Verified reviewThe owner Peter was just incredible. Despite an 8 hours delay flight he has been waiting for me all night til 3:30 am. It was so stressful to arrive in an unknown country at this time of the day. He gave me instructions to take a uber from the airport and in no time I was at his place. His wife made the first Costa Rica morning wonderful.

Hello Esther, thank you that you choose to stay at our place. I dont know what is wrong with our rooms, they are very clean (every day we make them as new), we build them in a colonial style to give our guest really. a taste and feeling from CR, there are hotels with the same service and quality what cost you much more.
