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 reviewWe had an absolutely delightful stay at Zenquility Inn! Nicole and Malcolm are wonderful hosts and they have created a beautiful, relaxing setting in a convenient location to enjoy Pedasi and the surround area. The landscaping and deck are so pleasing to the eye! They allowed us to feel welcomed and relaxed from the first moment we arrive and throughout our stay.
Thank you for your kind words Eric. We enjoyed having you both here. It was our pleasure. Cheers to you both!

Verified reviewThis is truly a gem; I wish I could have rated it with an 11! Of the 9 places we stayed in Panama, this is the one that stood out. Malcolm and Nicole have worked wonders on the abandoned inn they purchased 5 years ago. It is now totally remodeled with some modernistic furnishings I haven't seen before. With only 3 rental rooms, you feel like the entire inn is yours. Nicole's imaginative breakfasts are totally different each day, with ample usage of local fruits, deliciously and beautifully prepared. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, with the multitude of hummingbird attesting to the bountiful flowers. The rural setting is wonderful!
There was nothing we were not pleased with! Incidentally, the tavern no longer exists...thankfully.
Hi Steve, you made me laugh with your last comment ;-) You are so wonderful. Thank you for all your kind words. And yes, the tavern is no longer open to the public so we can put all our attention on those staying at the Inn, so that they will have the exact experience that you described. We are so happy you had such an experience. Take care and sending all of our best wishes for you.

Room is spacious and comfortable with everything provided (the beach towel was appreciated). There is a small coffee/ restaurant few steps away.

The property is stunning, with spacious rooms that have everything you need. The bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep.

Verified reviewTruly a hidden Gem in Pedasi. A very peaceful setting on a beautifully kept property close to anything of interest in the area. The facilities far exceeded our expectations and our hosts were exceptional in their welcoming nature and attention to detail. The atmosphere equals any fine resort or 5 star hotel. The owners, Nicole and Malcolm, have truly outdone themselves in creating a perfect environment for rest and relaxation! The large covered terrace is home to the restaurant/tavern and was very comfortable and a fun place to visit with other guests. The rooms were very well appointed with quality furnishings, and included a walk out furnished patio. The pool was also a great place to relax. Truly one of the best properties I have visited in Panama.
Thank you G! You know we enjoyed having you both stay here as well. We are so glad to have provided this space for you to relax and enjoy yourselves. We hope you stay longer next time. Take care. Best of wishes to you both, Nicole and Malcolm.

Verified reviewMalcom and Nicole were the perfect hosts! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel right at home with their warm hospitality and attention to detail. The place is brand new and very well maintained, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. One of the highlights of our stay was undoubtedly the pizza. I can confidently say it's the best pizza in all of Panama! Every bite was delicious and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The location is another great advantage. Being close to Arenal Beach, we had the opportunity to depart for an incredible whale-watching adventure. Isla Iguana itself is amazing and serene, perfect for a day of relaxation and exploration. The place has few rooms, no big crowds, zero noisy, just Zenquility. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will definitely come back and 200% recommend this place to anyone looking for a wonderful stay in Panama. Malcom and Barbara, thank you for making our trip so memorable!
Nothing to mention now.
Thank you so much for your kind words Federico, it was our pleasure having you! We strive for every guest at ZQ to have a special experience, and we are happy knowing that you did. We look forward to hosting you again in the future!
