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 KingdomThey is often nobody behind reception. This did lead to a problem when one if us accidently shut the door leaving the key in the room.
The hostal is in the centre and public parking is only a 7 min walk. The rooms are small but clean and relatively good value. They were very helpful sending jeans, which I'd left behind, on to me via a courier service.

CanadaThe property is located at the epicentre of the evening social life of Potes and is surrounded on three sides by narrow streets lined with bars. We always travel with earplugs and this was one occasion where they came in handy. While our room was comfortable it was sparsely furnished with only a bed, chair, and tiny wardrobe, and a power outlet in only one location (though with a multi outlet power bar thoughtfully provided).
Hosteria La Antigua is in a charming older traditional-style building so the rooms all have different features. Our room had a tiny door and an ensuite bathroom tucked under the sloping roof. There was a terrific view of the town and countryside from our third floor window. Though small, the bathroom was clean and functional. The owner spoke English and recommended an excellent nearby restaurant. There is ample free parking a block from the hotel.

United StatesExactly what I expected from the description and the reviews. Some people mentioned they showers... they are small. I am 5'7 and had to open the door to wash my feet. Water was fine. It is a charming historic building so everything is expected to be smaller... all within reason!

Location was excellent and the staff welcoming. It’s in the middle of a busy restaurant and shopping area but wasn’t too noisy as a result.

United KingdomThe only minor criticism; the shower cubicle had become a little dated and would benefit from a refresh.
Right in the centre of a lively part of the town, there were several popular bars and restaurants very close by. La Antigua is a quaint and character filled family small business within easy walking distance of the main high street. The room had very good window insulation, which was important, as the brilliant street view over the bustling nightlife could have otherwise been noisy when trying to sleep. As it turned out it was very effective and we slept in peace. The room was attractively decorated with wooden old furniture and sufficient space to hang our bike gear. The beds were clean and very comfortable. The owners evidently care passionately about their business and are brilliantly helpful; they accomodated our requests (storing our luggage before check in) with a cheerful smile. It was especially good for us that there was also space for safely parking our motorcycles under shelter. The room price was excellent value. Breakfast was available at several nearby cafés.

Excellent location bang in the middle of town with lots of bars and restaurants . Cora was lovely and helpful and spoke good English which helped our limited Spanish! She let us park our motorbike in the nearby garage . Only stayed one night en route from the ferry but would definitely return to beautiful Potes and be happy to stay at Pension La Antigua if in the region
