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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Costa RicaNo reception desk and no receptionist, just cryptic instructions on how to unlock a laundry room door to then unlock a key box to get a key to a cabina. We then discovered the cabina's light switches did not always turn on the ceiling lights...the cold water faucet in the kitchen did not work at all...there was no comfortable place to sit to relax...and the toilet did not flush (it even overflowed a couple of times). So, all in all, inexpensive but still not worth the aggravation.
Location was fine. Two nice restaurants nearby. Lake Arenal was visible.

United StatesAll good things here, no negatives
The location was great, and as easy to access and get set up as can be. You really feel a sense of freedom when you arrive to the cabina. The bed is very comfortable and I have back issues so it was a really nice surprise to find the quality mattress. No complaints whatsoever and would recommend highly for a solo traveler or a family as it's very spacious and well appointed.

United StatesHonestly, just that I didn't have the time to stay longer!
I was so comfy I slept through till I was ready to check out. My Host were super friendly and provided a great space. Super cute and simple experience with local wildlife and lake views just outside your door. Next time I come to Tronadora I will be staying here again!!!

Costa RicaNot that I can think of. A pleasant surprise all the way around
I was looking for a place to stay in Tilaran. I was tired of the typical Costa Rica backpacker hotel room in my budget. Basecamp was a pleasant change. My own tiny house well equipped, and a good view. I especially appreciated the kind staff. I’d forgotten one of my prescriptions and they gave me directions to a nearby farmacia and even called them they had my stuff in stock. My Spanish is rudimentary so I really appreciated them going the extra mile.
