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.).

ItalyThe price was still a bit high, but having a look around it seemed rooms in Ponta Delgada were generally pricy.
The outdoor pool is a nice spot to refresh or just relax with a book in the fresh air. The location is convenient and everything in town is at walking distance. Autonomous check in with good instructions.

PortugalNot the hostel's fault, but the kitchen/living room can get very dirty and messy quickly depending on the guests around... Maybe the common area clean-up should be done more often. Nothing else to point out.
The hostel was really beautifully decorated. The staff was very nice. And the pool was a nice bonus. Ver close to the center of Ponta Delgada.

CanadaThe only improvement I would suggest is getting air conditioning in the bedroom. It was very hot even with the addition of a fan in the room.
Having stayed there before, we were glad to be back. The facilities offer ample room for all guests in the dining room and kitchen for your food storage. The rooms are themed and well appointed. Staff was friendly and helpful. The pool is a much appreciated bonus feature.

PortugalThe room is not very soundproofed, and you can hear guests opening and closing their doors, and stepping in the stairs (stairs are made of wood, so they make some noise). If you sleep until late you will easily wake up at 11AM because of the vacuum cleaning. There is no air conditioning, but we didn't have any problems with the temperature because we went there on October when temperatures outside go from 17ºC to 25ºC. Anyway there is a fan in the room which we didn't have to use.
Starting with the check-in process everything was easy and fast. We arrived late but we could manage to complete the check-in by following the instructions sent to us without the need of anyone to wait for us. The triple room was spacious, comfy bed and pillows. Everything was very clean. We found funny that each room was identified by a symbol (our was the Mustache room). Nice view to the pool with big windows. The private bathroom wasn't inside the room but it was close enough. Shower is great (we got inspired by the wood shower floor). The shared kitchen is always clean and had everything we need to prepare our meals - microwave, stove, appliances, coffee maker. There's even a drawer for each room (identified by the room symbol - remember the Mustache). The fridge was big and we could store our food there in one of the shelves. And the lounge area / dinning room is very spacious and cool to hang out and meet with other guests. The swimming pool area is beautiful with chairs to sunbathe and areas to eat your breakfast or lunch with a nice pool view. Location is close to the center, and if you rented a car (which I highly recommend) you will notice that the street is very narrow and difficult to park, but surprisingly there's a new parking lot with a lot of space next to the hotel - this was definitely a plus.

CanadaWe had one of the two rooms on the front of the lodge. It was very noisy at night if we opened the windows to cool off the room as there was no AC — noisy from the traffic as well as the other guests on the floor right above us who seemed to stomp back and forth across their room until midnight or later. The lodge is also under the flight path with flights starting around 0630am, which is also an issue if you leave the windows open to cool down the room.
The lodge (bedroom and bathroom) was clean, our towels were changed every couple dads, the beds were comfortable, it was nice to have kitchen facilities and to use the pool.
