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.).

United StatesMy friend found a scorpion in her room, although this is common in Costa Rica and not the fault of the hotel, it was still surprising to us. The rooms were basic but great for a budget stay. I would stay there again!
The staff was so kind, the garden was beautiful, and the breakfast was delicious. My kids loved exploring the garden which was relaxing for me because they had something to do that made them happy! The location was great.

United StatesWe found a scorpion in one of our rooms and were cautious of bugs, but there's not much to be done as this is the nature of Monteverde.
Location, access and parking were easy. Staff was friendly, helpful, and available. They were able to accommodate an early check-in and kept an eye on our bags for a while after check-out.

HungaryThe breakfast was ok, but we expected a little bit better based on the reviews.
Nice hotel, very close to rainforests, coffee plantations and also to city center - 5-10 mins by car. The rooms are really large and have all you need. It is usually very quiet and the garden is well-maintained. The owner has a cat and a dog but they are very friendly.

United StatesThe only bummer when I booked it, I thought we were getting one of the private cabins that the pictures showed, but we were in one of the two rooms in the main building behind the reception. It could have been my fault but I didn’t know that there were rooms like that and thought they were just single cabins…
I loved the trails behind the hotel and I liked that it was walking distance from them. It was a beautiful hotel.

United StatesThe walls for the rooms were paper thin though and you could hear EVERYTHING in the rooms next to you. This wasn't a problem as our neighbors were respectful and I played white noise. The bed was extremely hard and they only had one pillow for each of us.
The hotel property was beautiful and it was close enough to walk to town. There was a simple breakfast included, which was nice. There was also plenty of hot water (I saw some reviews saying there wasn't but there was). The staff was super friendly and helpful.

FinlandIt's a short walk from the town but this did not bother us too much.
The property is super nice with a feeling that you are in the middle of the forest. Staff are super helpful and manage to communicate even though they do not speak English.

SwitzerlandWhen we arrived, the person at the reception informed us that they don't have any room available for the first night of our stay (they overbooked). They eventually found us another hotel for the first night and offered us an upgrade to a challet room. However, the replacement hotel (Rustico) had very badly isolated rooms and you could hear all the sounds from outside, especially the wind blowing and that caused us poor sleeping. On top of this, the cleanliness of the hotel could be improved: the toilet wasn't exactly clean and there was dust on several spots in the room, showing that it wasn't used/touched for a while. There were only 2 large towels provided, but no hand/face towels. The location isn't bad, but if you wanna walk to the centre of Santa Elena it takes about 25 minutes and it's not the most pleasant walk as there's no sidewalk for the most part and cars pass by frequently on the main road with speed, so you're better off using the car.
The garden was pretty nice and offered a great atmosphere and the room had large windows.

GermanyThe bed linen has not been changed prior to our arrival and was extremely yukky. The staff left just after our arrival (7pm), so we could not ask anyone to make up the room. When addressing this to the owner in the morning, the only thing she did, was asking her staff if the room was cleaned - no excuse, no discount, no anything. Bathroom has a very moldy smell. The walls between the rooms are paper thin and every noise can be heard.
Nice location. Beautiful garden.

United StatesIt gets cold in Monteverde after dark, so that’s why the cabin does not have AC, which is totally fine.
We loved our cabin and our stay overall. Fairly quiet, no mosquitoes and strong shower. Breakfast was homemade, with different options to choose from. The owner is very friendly, and we loved the cat and the funny dog. They have free parking and an extra service for laundry that was very useful.

PolandEverything. Starting from the staff who is rude and think people do not understand when they speak Spanish between them. They do not care for you right from the very first step when you cross the doors. The chalet we got was dirty (ok, they changed the sheets). The bathroom looked like it has not been cleaned for the past few weeks, and I would not put a bare foot in the shower. There were no towels (we needed to ask for them), and when you looked at the floor, you could have seen dust and footsteps of all people who were walking there recently. No screens in windows, so bugs everywhere, and only small windows which you could open, so hot inside. No fan. No AC. Worst "hotel" I have ever stayed, I guess. We left after two hours when all the bugs started attacking as it was getting dark. I would give it 0, but there is no such option.
There is nothing to like about this place. I am not sure who is giving positive reviews to this place and the staff, possibly these are paid reviews.

ChileBest beds we had in Costa Rica. The cabins are spacious and the bedding is extremely comfy. We could sleep wth the sounds of the birds and experience nature front hand with armadillos walking in front of our cabin and colibríes flying in the garden. Great location and good service. Wonderful experience.
