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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

GermanyIt's a fair budget option in an expensive place - no frills.
Ricardo is an amazing host and really helpful. It's value for money for a comfortable dorm with cool common area including well-stocked kitchen and outside terrace near Guincho Beach. While I had a car (easy parking, but watch out for the bus. If you are not in a marked spot, you'll probably have to move your car), which makes it convenient to get around. However most other occupants did their thing by foot or public transport, which seemed to work well. Good affordable local food nearby.

United KingdomThere was a lot of sand and also hair in our bed. It seemed that someone staying in the hostel had slept in there (probably unknown to the hosts). There was a wet towel and a couple of empty bottles left in the room.
Comfortable mattress, good value room, great location & view, use of kitchen and it was lovely to meet the host Ricardo.

GermanyInstallations showing clear signs of deterioration, especially the common sanitary facilities. The double room was just large enough to fit the (generous) double bed. , but tolerable thanks to the large window to the terrace. The landlords were available but seemed to prefer minimal contact (this can be good or bad depending on your view).
Interesting location in small village in the middle of green hills, with distant view of the sea. Direct neighbourhood consists mainly of nice private houses. Nice house with spacious living room and terrace. Comfortable double bed.

ItalyThe staff was nice and everything, but not really present to show you the house and if you need help. It’s quite far from Cascais, which has their pros and cons.
You have a lot of space where you can stay besides your shared room. It’s very calm and peaceful. Overall it was clean and tidy. For Guincho beach is only a bit less of 2km, there’s a trail in nature which is quite nice. If you want to kite surf, remote working or just calmness it’s ideal. It’s quite well organized. There’s only two bathrooms from what I’ve seen, one just with the wc and another just with the shower, but I’ve never had to wait.

United StatesNo staff on hand which is fine but I booked the room close to check in so there was not a bed made up for me nor a key to the door. I wasn't assigned a bed so I searched around for linens.
The house is incredible. It's a bit hard to find but the seclusion enhances the experience once you settle in.
