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 KingdomWe only stayed for one night, but we absolutely loved it! Very spacious room, aircon worked really well, all the towels and everything were folded in different shapes (swans/flowers) which we loved, the bathroom was lovely, lots of wardrobe space, and the location was perfect! Right in the centre of town. Would highly recommend this hotel to fellow travellers! Annies was great and super friendly as well! :D

FinlandThe party venue is close to the hotel, so the noise can be heard in the room to some extent, but it doesn't bother too much. Please note that there is no air conditioning in the room. However there is a fan. The outer door/gate is locked, which improves security. However, you need a key to open it, so it can be a risk in an emergency. So make sure you know the location of your key.
The accommodation was really nice and clean. The location is great and you can see the sea from the balcony. The beds were comfortable and you could get more towels by asking.

HungaryThe outdoor entertainment venue right next to the hotel blares music until dawn, and it is almost impossible to sleep even with the windows closed. There is no breakfast at the accommodation, they give you a coupon for the bar of the neighboring hotel, where you can choose from portioned menus (you STILL HAVE TO pay 5 usd). The breakfast is not very rich for this amount of money, it is better to look around the city (and highly recommended!)!
The common kitchen is well equipped (fridge, microwave, coffee maker, cutlery, plates) and some coffee and clean water is always available for free. The area is very safe, the staff is very friendly.

AustraliaAs all places in Bocas, especially on this island, it is a bit smelly and noisy and you cannot drink the tap water. Not a complaint, but just to go in with realistic expectations.
The property is a short walk from the ferry terminal and is very close to where you can do boat trips to the other islands. Restaurants and shops are close by. The room was small and older, but comfortable and clean. The shared living space and kitchen were clean and handy. Also very close to the airport. Drinking water provided in the kitchen and a discounted breakfast at an adjacent property.

Costa RicaI think you can not use the deck because the owner lives downstairs and there are big dogs. But other than that, everything was great and besides, you don't spend too much time in the room. You are always away on tours to other islands or out to eat.
No AC, just a fan but it has a great location and you are only there to sleep. Hang out upstairs patio was nice and had a view of the island. There is an equipped kitchen and free water. The owner was very nice!

PanamaNo Air Conditioner in the rooms, with only a fan on top, It’s a nightmare to sleep in. The room had a window, which had to be kept open to at least have some air in the room. The window was located right across another hotel’s walkway, and the windows had see-through curtains, so you have no privacy, have to hide, if you don’t want people peeping into the window. The Hostel is located right next to a local bar that has Karaoke nights that last til 2 AM, and with windows open - impossible to get some sleep. The sink had no water and was leaking a little bit. The shower head was broken. Also noticed hair on the toilet when we first arrived.
The location is okay, on the main street, but still a walk to the main action of the town. The owner was friendly and responsive
