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 StatesPeople (6 or 8) came in off the street to watch a ruggby match on the large bar TV turning up the restraunt/bar music system to very high levels to listen to the match. They ordered very few drinks. That was unacceptable.
Location is great on the beach near excelent restaurants. Staff was exceptionally helpful and chearful.

United KingdomThe room doesn't have a window (only a tiny one in the bathroom overlooking the ugly roofs around) and for nearly USD 60 is poor. Moreover, the car park is not really a car park, it's an interior courtyard just enough for one car and if you have a rented car, you'll be worried someone might scratch it when carrying sharp objects around it. Also the main street outside turns night time into pleasure street with loads of prostitutes, etc
The location is bang on the beach, the room was surprisingly fresh and well decorated compared to the shabby looks of the rest of the property. Also the staff is friendly

It's a nice little hotel if you keep in mind the price. Extremely relaxing, beach right in front, great service, and clean. Looking forward to coming back!

PanamaThe price is a bit steep for this basic hotel in my view. And Boca Chica is not what it used to be, it is really run down...
The Boat House must be the best place to stay in Boca Chica. It is right on the beach, with a nice open restaurant and bar where you can chill all day and night. The room I had was good, basic but very comfortable, including the bed and the shower.

BelgiumFacilities are quite old and Boca Chica does not seem to be the safest place in Dominican Republic, but we enjoyed it for a short stay right at the beach.
Wonderful location (right at the beach front), very friendly staff (helped us with our travel arrangements and walked with us to the bus stop), great food (anything we tried was gorgeous).

NetherlandsWell, I did not complain about it. So it is not really a complain, but the AC could be a little improved I think, it does not cool so much as it could I think. Just as a tip.
Yeah, I finally got lucky! When I arrived the owner of the complex gave me an upgrade to "the penthouse". Awesome. It does not happen to me a lot, so happy to have experienced that here in this stay. To summarize : +Place directly connected to the beach. +++Great views all day long ! ++Good food. I think best food of the street. Try the vegetable soup very good (little spicy). ++++Cold beers +++++Good place to work remotely from (I can recommend this place for digital nomads) they have a large terrace with fast WiFi and power plugs outside. ++++It is secure. The place is gated and has a guard. +++They also have (long term) apartment rental connected to the bar and restaurant which makes it excellent! +Good music. ++English/Dutch/Spanish spoken. (maybe even more languages, but these I know for sure) +Everything you need is around, a small grocery store, a pharmacy, bars, bus stops, a bank, all is there. Just a larger supermarket is 4 blocks away. ++If you need a reliable driver (from the airport) ask the boat house for Paco. He is very reliable and drove me around and to and from the airport. Very reliable and safe. Speaks also English. +Just 10 meters outside the boat house the bar street begins, so you are very centrally located. Every night at 7pm the street transforms in a bar street with tables etc. If I am going to do more remote work, I for sure will stay here for a while. Safe, reliable, good food, fast WiFi. Apartment is cleaned daily.

The breakfast choices were good. The hotel location was on the beach ⛱️ and a block from the pedestrian area nightlife. Dinner menu select was excellent and they had a daily lunch special. The owner, Lawrence, was personable.

United StatesWe arrived only 20 minutes before the kitchen stopped serving dinner, so we had to hurry up and get our stuff in our rooms and hustle down to the bar area. My daughters did not feel comfortable in the room they were supposed to sleep in, so we had them sleep in the room next to the bar, where there were more people around.
The food was very good and the service was great. Location is amazing. The owner is very personable and makes sure all his guests feel welcome and are comfortable.
