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.).

GermanyOne thing that really bothered us was the very uncomfortable beds! Both the frame and the mattress need replacing. Unfortunately, every night spent in that bed was very difficult, as the mattress would slip off the frame and was very uneven and soft. An extra blanket in the closet for colder nights was without a cover.
Wonderful location to start hikes near Teide and up to the Teide volcano itself. Close to the charming old town of Vilaflor. Beautiful view from the terrace (we weren't lucky with the weather, but whenever the clouds cleared, we could even see the ocean in the distance). The garden is large, though somewhat neglected. The apartment is quite small but sufficient for two people. We weren't lucky with the weather in April, so it was cold inside, but a radiator and heater were available and did the job. Excellent contact with the owner.

LithuaniaNo insulation, would not recommend for the winter season as you'll need all the provided heaters.
Vilaflor is a great place to get away from all the tourists and summer heat by the sea side. Close to the hills and most hike areas. I's also 1.6km high so you'll get used to thinner air in the mountains. Has all the required facilities, nothing is broken, all is tidy.

GermanyI was 4 weeks hiking on the islands Gran Canaria, El Hierro, Lanzarote and Tenerife. I liked the apartment El Mirador best of the 4 on this holiday. The village Vilaflor at 1400 m is very well located for hiking in the mountains. The view from the balcony is beautiful and gives a feeling of freedom. I can highly recommend the apartment El Mirador.

United KingdomOne room for kitchen, sitting and bed. A lot of keys for getting into property and security cameras. Over looks main road up to Teide from the south so a bit of road noise with the quad bikes and coaches going up and down but most of the time the road is very quiet and at night pretty much silent.
Great location with fantastic views, clean apartment. Comfortable bed and comfortable chairs.Plenty of hot water reasonable shower good clean bathroom.. Very quiet location far from the maddening crowd. Great location for exploring South Side of Teide national Park. Two gas hobs, microwave, fridge,electric kettle and pans make it possible to prepare food. However plenty of options for eating out locally. Close enough to Vilaflor to be able.to use facilities 5 minutes in car or 15 minute steep walk down but far enough away to get peace and quiet. GR 131 walking route passes property so walking from the front door. Small church just above property with large outdoor area.

NetherlandsCan’t think of anything apart from that more than 3 towels for 5 days/2 persons would be nice. We were a bit confused about the instructions for arrival; note that the lock on the gated door on the front door is not locked itself.
Lovely studio with amazing views. The balcony has sun in the morning, perfect for a breakfast with views of the mountains, village, and sea. Beautiful garden with many spots to sit, you can always find a sunny spot. Great place for hiking, the bus stop to the El Teide National Park is a 10-minute walk. Smooth communication and nice local tips from Michael.

PolandWhat's below was not an issue for us, however consider this as a tip: -Due to high altitude location Vilaflor sometimes can be cold. Electric heater was very helpfull during first two nights. Later days were very hot -Restaurants & small markets can be closed early. I recommend to do food shoping in a bigger market like Lidl and store your food supplies in the room's kitchen.
- Great host and beautiful view from balcony :) - Spacious room. The big "+" is the kitchen with all you need, including microwave oven and a fridge - Electric heater for colder nights - No problem to park rented car in front of the gate - Vilaflor is a quiet town located ~1500m above ocean level - It is the perfect location for people who wants to explore hike trails near Teide (20-30min by car) and are less interested in lazy sunbatching on a beach - In the town there is a fuel station

GermanyThis studio is located on a hill overlooking Vilaflor and was much nicer than we expected! A big plus is that the pull-out couch has a normal mattress, so it was very comfy! The balcony overlooking town (and with a sea view in the distance) is an excellent place for breakfast, street parking was very easy at the gate, and we loved the cats roaming the property. It's worth knowing that Vilaflor gets much cooler than the coast in the evenings. The heaters and blankets provided were great, it was just a bit chilly getting out of bed in the mornings some days

Really great place as a home base for your Teide national park hikes. The view from small balcony is outstanding! It is basically a room with kitchen corner and bathroom. There is no bed, but extendable sofa (very cosy). Kitchen is well equipped (except of sharp knives). There is no wifi (as written in the description).
