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 and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

United StatesThere was nothing that I really didn't like. I like my privacy and they respected it entirely, yet were always there to answer any questions I had.
I stayed for one month in the cabana at the back of the property. It has a full kitchen, so I was able to cut my costs considerably. It's a short, inexpensive cab ride into town. I walked it a number of times, but it may not be for the feint of heart. However, it was a great way to get some excellent photographs. The property is extremely lush and loaded with beautiful flowers, and I saw many beautiful birds while sitting right in the house or on the porch. Hummingbirds are numerous and always in attendance. Yellow fly catchers and blue crowned motmots, to name a few. It's like sleeping in the jungle without the bugs as the house is fully screened. The owner and staff were exceptional and eager to please. Oh, and I forgot to mention the beautiful pool and the abutting building with a nice fireplace and a view overlooking the forest. If you're a nature lover, you'll love it here. The evenings cool off considerably, and with the help of a good ceiling fan, I slept like a baby. It's in a good location to strike out lots of other great spots.

United StatesRoom may not have been used in a little while. It could have used a good dusting and wiping down. Not necessarily negative, but 3 minute drive out of town, so you need a car to get supplies or go to a restaurant.
Knowledgeable and charming host. Surrounding gardens are beautiful. Our room was very big & airy. Pool area was inviting. Gorgeous local foliage. Quiet.

United Statescan’t say anything that I didn’t like. Enid and the staff made certain that everyone had all one needed.
everything was absolutely stunning. I was accommodated with the use of the outside kitchen at “The Ranch”. cool top and refrigerator and some utensils. Beautifully situated just outside of Atenas proper with lush gardens and a relaxing pool area. I had no problem walking to town. For the more hearty, walking back from Atenas is a good workout, while I took a 1700-2000 CCR cab ride back. plenty of shops to pick up snacks and food items. La Coope was most convenient and had ATM’s.

United StatesEverything, from the rooms to the breakfast to the pool, is beautiful. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous, the host is especially welcoming and kept us laughing, and there are plenty of places to lounge and relax. We spent the last week going on hikes and tours all over the place, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to rest and simply enjoy the amazing countryside all around us.

United StatesThere are no hairdryers so be sure to bring your own.
The property has a truly fabulous garden and a lovely pool. Our room had a comfortable bed and a ceiling fan which was needed as there is no air conditioning, and the evening cooled down nicely so we were quite comfortable. Ernesto was welcoming and gave us good dinner recommendations. The locked gate made us feel secure and having a gate controller with the room key made it easy to come and go. The directions to the property made more sense once we found it and there is a lighted sign on the gate which confirmed we were in the right place. They do accept credit cards.
