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.).

ItalyIt is not due to the hotel, but at night you walk 200 metres in the dark to reach the hotel from the main road. The dinner's choices are limited to three options. There is no hot water.
It is in front of the sea and next to the park entrance. I thought I wouldn't use the pool but it worked out to be mandatory to swim! Humidity is high in Tortuguero. Good patio for each room. The room has the essentials, like beds and a shelf however, being on the Tortuguero you would realize that they live with the minimum things. I thought it was a plus. The kitchen is clean and the food was tasty. The gallo pinto is delicious and the chef is very good at her job. They do laundry if you need.

It was right on the beach, it was clean and the breakfast was good with fresh juice. It was just a short walk to the Main Street and the streets to the hotel were paved so it was easy to walk with suitcases.

Czech RepublicThe room was pretty basic and felt like it was missing some standard things, like a lamp, a chair, a desk. There were only thin sheets available, not blankets. The bed frame was rusty.
The staff and excursions were nice. The pool was refreshing and it was close to the beach (where you can't swim)

IrelandIt can be noisy at night, our room was on the ground floor, facing the internal garden. People were talking at night just outside our door and we could hear everything.
The staff is very fliendly, they allowed us to check in earlier in the morning. The budget room is very simple but has everything needed and it is comfortable. Very good breakfast. The position is perfect, the hotel is just by the sea and 5 min from all the restaurants. The swimming pool is a plus! I would come back to this hotel!

Friendly helpful staff, greeted us from boat to take us to hotel and helped us book tours, great location on beach, tasty breakfast, great value. We had a deluxe room with ac, these rooms are on 1st floor and at back of hotel so lighter and quieter, than those on ground floor, would recommend.
