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.).

PortugalWe found a tuna steak on the microwave on the first night, so that was not nice. I asked for lactose free milk and they didn’t get it and I already specified that on the booking.
It was so close to the beach, loved that! Very nice area, close to the main town but not close so you feel the quiet and peace. Ribeira Grande is close to Ponta Delgada, so its a very nice location. One of the breakfast ladies was so nice.

United KingdomThey ran out of (e.g. eggs) things for breakfast if you don't come to eat early. For breakfast, more vegetables (tomatoes, cucumber, etc.) would be a plus!
I liked that the breakfast was included even if it was simple. I liked that they had everything I needed in the kitchen. I loved the blinds. Overall, it was a good place for the money.

NetherlandsIt's not a huge disadvantage, but just have in mind that the shared bathroom is not on the same floor as the room (if you wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, it might be a bit inconvenient). Also parking is not always possible precisely in the area of the houses, but close-by (around 5 min. walking).
The property is very nice, beds were comfortable, room was clean and had a fresh smell. The breakfast was good, served on time and we had plenty of options. The owner is very friendly and offered to provide local tips, if needed. The room had ocean view, which is great to wake up to in the morning. :)

It was a great location - a walk to the beach and central to all the other spots we wanted to visit in the island. Breakfast was nice and simple (bread, cereal, coffee, jams, etc.). Many parking spots. We stayed in the apartment and cooked a few nights and there was plenty of supplies and everything worked great. Would definitely stay again!

AustraliaNote that the address provided on the booking.com isn't necessarily super accurate, I would recommend putting in the coordinates into your GPS as opposed to the actual address. To check in, you call the host and he kindly advised that I was at a different location, so just take note of that! Nothing else to comment on, it was a great stay and the host was super nice!
The host was extremely kind and welcoming, showed me to the room, and walked me through the premises (i.e., the shared kitchen/living room, the location for breakfast). The breakfast was standard with some savory and typical breakfast granola and toast options. The room was delightful, spacious, clean, and the terrace gave a nice glimpse of the beach from the nearby fields. Parking was easy, as there's plenty of street parking right outside of the rooms.

DenmarkWell, it is not expensive, so it lacks a number of conveniences that you would find in more expensive places. Like a toilet on the same floor. But that is part of the deal, and we enjoyed our stay.

PolandPoor WiFi connection - beware if you’re a digital nomad trying to work from the premises. It is sketchy - sometimes it works for couple of hours, but sometimes you cannot even find the network and connect. The owners said: “there was a technician 2 times this week already and everything is working fine” - well, clearly it’s not. If guests are complaining, there has to be a reason and this is unacceptable to not offer any valid solution. Also, breakfast was super simple with not the highest quality ingredients. Almost no choice. Also, maybe you could use the Azorean butter instead of importing from Spain in these little plastic containers to reduce the carbon footprint? This would match sustainable approach and environment protection measures that these beautiful islands are proud of.
Close proximity to the ocean - stunning beach with wonderful sunset views just around the corner. The property itself is quite modern (guess it’s been built or renovated recently), so it’s nice and clean, although rooms might have been bigger. Overall good value for money.

DenmarkThe property is essentially a house in a suburb, with a shared kitchen and bathroom. There was only self check in, in which I had to phone a number on the front door to receive verbal instructions on how to enter the property. The only staff I ever saw was the cleaner in the morning. Staying there was like sharing a house with flatmates who are complete strangers. It wasn't particularly charming.
The room had a balcony with a view of two horses. The location was close to the surfer beach, but a bit of a walk from the town centre. The property was clean. There was a "chip truck" at the corner having a pig roast with delicious pork on a bun.
