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.).

United KingdomThe apartment was in the old part of the town which was good but meant there was no outlook as it was in a narrow street. Also the small courtyard garden was down a short steep flight of steps which my husband couldn’t manage. It was not a very attractive area.
Very well appointed to a high standard. Modern facilities. Comfortable. In a good location near restaurants, buses, taxis, markets etc.

Perfect location and a very well appointed and clean apartment. Despite being right on the Main Street of the old town it was very quiet at night with the bedroom at the rear. Our host stayed in regular contact and was extremely helpful with everything - her restaurant recommendations were spot on!

Great appartment in the heart of Funchal in an area filled with restaurants. The area has a fantastic atmosphere. Our stay was perfect. Our host was friendly, kept great communication and the place was very clean and comfortable. Parking was a bit difficult but there is a parking garage around the corner. We stayed for two nights and highly recommend this place. Thank you for everything!

United KingdomBuilding opposite is two metres away, so leaving the blinds up means a view straight into the studio apartment. Some mesh/gauze curtains would help.
Good sized clean, modern and very comfortable studio right on Restaurant Alley and close to most places - town centre, bus station, cable cable, airport bus stop. Host very responsive, and finding/entering accommodation very straightforward. Even though there are restaurants right outside, the sound proofing is very good and the noise isn’t noticeable.

HungaryCentral location also means it's quite busy and loudish until late in the night. Cleanliness is okay, but not top notch (stray hairs in a few places, mouldy shower head). Parking very difficult.
Location is perfect as it's central. Spacious apartment, which is well furnished and equipped. Staff is very friendly, communication was very good, and they are super flexible on check-in and check-out. Altogether quite clean, except for a few minor things.

United KingdomThe apartment is above a restaurant so you can hear people talking in the evening, but it’s only quiet as the apartment is double glazed and the restaurant closes approximately 10pm. This would not put us off staying in this apartment again though.
Location was a perfect base in the old town. Very close to lots of restaurants and bars. Supermarkets, beach and cable car were less than a 5 minute walk away. Apartment had everything you need for self catering, was very clean and host was very friendly and answered any queries we had promptly. We did a tour of the west with ‘Madeira happy tours’ and a 25 fonts walk with ‘Madeira free spirit tours’, we would thoroughly recommend these tours.

United KingdomThere wasn't anything that we didn't like.
We particularly liked our location in the old town of Funchal. The apartment was clean, well provided for plus very quiet. Having a large balcony was also a bonus. It was great to be met by Alexandra who was especially helpful with providing us with restaurant ideas and car parking. Felt the organisation of the booking including the arrangements to meet the company representative in Funchal when we arrived went all very smoothly.
