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.).

GermanyPerfect place to visit Manuel Antonio National Park - you can walk to the park entrance in only 5 minutes. You can leave your car at the hotel and walk to the park 👍. The rooms and the restaurant have a great view. We enjoyed a very good breakfast and dinner there. We booked a canoe tour with the hotel reception, the tour was great! We definitely would recommend this tour. They pick you up for the tour at the hotel. Price for the room is very good.

FranceThe room itself is, as announced, a refurbished container, that is large enough and perfectly fine, the furniture inside is only a bit limited. The hotel is also on a stiff slope, a golf type shuttle brings you up.
This hotel is ideally located near the Manuel Antonio park accessible by walk. The room with view on the sea allows to view all the wonderful park sea front. The breakfast and lunch area is open to the forest around where one can see sloths, birds and monkeys. There was also a nice live concert one evening. All the team was very helpful on any request from us. Monkeys are passing through the room balconies, so windows must be carefully closed all time, but at teh same time it is quite an experience to see them going through from the room inside.

United KingdomRoom was small, but we expected that and it wasn't an issue. Had good lighting, air-conditioning and excellent shower, so we had all we needed! Breakfast service was really slow; took an hour for food to arrive which could be an issue for park access, which is in timed slots. Luckily we'd gone early for breakfast, having been woken by the monkeys jumping on our roof. Breakfast burrito was very tasty though, despite staff not being able to keep up with flow of people.
The location next to Manuel Antonio national park was exceptional. We only stayed one night, but were able to leave our car in the carpark whilst we accessed the park the next day, which was most welcome. The pools were gorgeous and views amazing. We enjoyed watching the monkeys climb over everyone's balconies in the morning!! Staff were friendly and helpful. Great value for money.

United StatesThe smell was a bit off in the rooms but I think it may have been the cleaning stuff they used. Or the chlorine. The way up to the hotel was a bit tiring so it would be hard for those who aren’t very active to walk up all those stairs, but usually they have golf carts and valet to drive you up, they assist in helping with luggage as well! Again, awesome staff. The pool could have been pressure washed/a bit cleaner, but it is deep and fun to swim in. overall great stay.
Beautiful area, nice people and wonderful staff. Iguanas everywhere! Even a local iguana named Juanito! He was my favorite. Beautiful view. Great food. Monkeys around at sunset! Great location for tourists and right next to national park and beach! Awesome for surfers/cruisers.

ThailandIf you are going on an early morning activity, make sure to give yourselves plenty of time for breakfast. It is very busy at the restaurant and they need more staff to serve quickly.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, from answering our questions to helping us book trips. The location was excellent for access to the national park and the beach. Just a short bus ride to Quepos, with stops at local places along the way. Great views from the pool and restaurant. Lots of wildlife to be seen from the hotel, sloths, monkeys, birds.

ItalyI didn't think it was bad, but it is a point of attention, as the hotel is on a steep hill and to access the rooms and services from the street, you have to go up (and down). In any case, the hotel has a golf cart, driven by staff, and whenever possible they help you go up, down and carry your bags if necessary.
This hotel is very well located for those who want to visit the park, located just a few steps away, but also for exploring the beach, which is approximately 5 to 8 minutes away on foot. The rooms have an interesting layout and all have views of the sea and the forest that surrounds the hotel, with a refrigerator, complimentary coffee, safe and the bathroom is functional and spacious with everything working properly (hot water, pressure, lights and air conditioning). The hotel is located on a hill and has 2 sections, one lower and one upper. Obviously the upper rooms have a privileged view of the panorama. Breakfast is simple but well proposed and served on a beautiful panoramic terrace. The staff is friendly and professional, always attentive and willing to help and provide information. They have a very welcome parking lot for guests, since it is difficult to park cars on the street. At night in this hotel it is possible to hear a unique symphony of nature noises coming from the park in which it is immersed. I recommend it to anyone who likes to connect with nature and the "pura vida" without giving up genuine comfort.

United StatesIt’s a bit run down. It could use a lot of repairs. The swimming pool needs to be redone. All in all thought it’s fine if you are not a picky traveler about aesthetics. I told friends it’s a shabby place with fantastic views!
If you like a little shabby with GREAT VIEWS and wildlife then this is your place. It was worth it! Beds are very comfortable. Breakfast was ok. It is not buffet style, so you get one plate. The plus of this place during our stay was the monkey who came up on our balcony on the 4th floor! That was super cool!
