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.

Castillo de Zalia Conjunto Rural is located in a tranquil location with fabulous views of the Med & just a short drive to the coast. The road to get there is paved & in excellent condition. The fenced garden area of our apartment was ideal for us to relax & our dogs to enjoy with us.

NetherlandsWhat is written in the ☹ reviews is unfortunately true: - The apartment is not that clean - dogs are walked on the lawn next to the swimming pool - equipment in the kitchen broken (with us the Dolce Gusto, hairdryer and remote control lighting) - mosquitoes smashed against the wall - Jacuzzi is cold - few kitchen utensils - reception is unmanned (we had 1 lady who cleaned the rooms, she did the laundry and manned the reception and you could contact her with any problems, but she only spoke Spanish) and our experiences: - there are not enough electrical outlets in the kitchen. You must unplug the microwave to switch on the filter coffee machine. - The light in the bedroom can only be turned on with a remote control. Ours was broken and was replaced immediately. - WIFI was bad, only good for the first 2 days (when we were the only ones in the building) - in addition to mosquitoes, we also had an outbreak of pine processionary caterpillars (I had to remove them from our garden every day) - That collection of crappy hangers (that you get for free when you buy clothes): that's really a disgrace! - There were cigarette butts everywhere in our garden - There is no electric kettle, no iron - Nearest major supermarkets (Lidl, Mercadona, ALDI) are 20 kilometers from the location in Malaga-Velez.
we had booked and paid for an apartment with a garden (for 2 people) and got an apartment for 6 people with a huge garden (2E) there is a parasol with a silver inside that blocks UV rays The view was fantastic large fridge and freezer large flatscreen television There is a Dolce Gusto coffee machine. Ours was broken and was immediately replaced.

United KingdomThe apartment wasn't very clean, loads of hair on the floor. The kitchen had limited crockery considering it's self catering, now bowls for salad ect. We stayed for 10 days and bedding wasn't changed, the ONLY lady on site couldn't speak any English so communication was difficult with google translate. Inside the apartment the was a few things that needed attention as well The pool had LOADS of mosaic tiles coming of and can do with proper maintenance, it was warm though! Don't expect the Jacuzzi to be warm, it was only 30 c and was a big disappointment for us as we looked forward to it for a winter stay.
The facility is great for families and well situated to explore loads of little villages around. The pool is great, kids loved it.

United KingdomUnfortunately pool was dirty, balls of hair, paper, tiles missing. The pool was being used by one family and sorry to say extremely noisy, shouting from the house constantly, screaming all day! Terrible to say but ruined our stay. Not nice people, just noisy. Expecting tranquility. We were locked out as gate was faulty for half an hour but not there fault. Also got lost so half an hour late so no one explained anything re house.
