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 KingdomVery dated rooms. Unfortunately the first room we were put in (studio with terrace) room 6 absolutely stunk of cigarettes, there was also cigarette ash on the chair, cobb webs, dead spiders. Shower had low pressure and shower door was broken and hard to close, and the walls in main house were extremely thin. People living upstairs sounded like they were in the room with us. Bed in that room was also very uncomfortable, felt all the springs. The complex has a 24/7 number to call as no staff on site. We called after we got there about 10pm regarding the stench of ciggs and the chap we spoke to said he would send the cleaners again the following day. We got a call the following day about 10am apologising and that they would move us to another studio in the pool area. This was miles better, although dated decor it was clean, had aircon, great shower pressure and quite. Also more space and more natural light, first room in main block was very dark.
Really lovely old mill. Had the potential to be a fantastic little set of apartments but needs some serious TLC. The grounds and gardens are very pretty, but as mentioned needs some love and care put into it. Very quiet around the pool, only one other couple while we were there. And the pool is clean unlike some of the comments I have read. We saw the caretakers while we were there cleaning it also. About a 15/20 minute walk into old town and the beach.

United StatesChecking in was a nightmare, we asked if we could leave our bags at reception since check in wasn’t until 4pm and we landed at 10am, and they said no (there actually was just no reception!!!). After making us wait over an hour from the check in time, they finally let us in but the queen bed was broken. they couldn’t send someone to fix it until the next day, which was really annoying since we were a group of four. two of us essentially had no where to sleep for the first night. Other than the staff (whose english is not proficient at all) being difficult to communicate with, the only other concern was the bathroom. It’s incredibly small and the door is super hard to open and close. It doesn’t close completely, but the more you close it the harder it is to open.
Pretty views and unique property, having a pool nearby was nice too. 5 minute walk to a bakery and convenience store, 20 min walk to the beach/old town area.

PortugalIt is sad to give negative feedback, but unfortunately there is a lot of Tender loving care needed as it's just been left to deteriorate. There is no staff onsite and a young man came to give us the keys. We rang to let them know we were on the way and struggled to find the place which had a side entrance near the pool or main entrance hidden off a road. We said we'd be there in 20 min, but got lost so took 30 min and then we waited and waited another 20 min before anyone turned up. When checking out, you leave the keys in the room, close the door and message to say you've left. There is no personal attention. The garden furniture was dirty and random chairs and tables left around, by the pool area, the grass viewing area The pool although a lovely looking pool was dirty and not able to swim. We booked a studio room in the main house and got a studio room next to the no longer working cafe, which at first looked like the ablution block. We were told you booked a studio room, this is one. The patio furniture was strewn everywhere and there were old cigarette butts from previous people. People who got the room next to us complained and we're moved to the main house. Although a lovely setting, it was disappointing. The photos don't depict the reality of the property
The room was clean and bed comfortable There was a small kitchenette and facilities to microwave and have a coffee. This place would of been a beautiful place in it's day. Not far from town, cycling and walking distance.

PortugalCheck-in unfriendliness, long wait times, had an issue with the first room allotted as there were "cockroaches", then after insisting a lot over the phone, they agreed to change the room, else they were saying that nobody can clean it until the next day and expected us to stay in the cockroach filled room. On top of that, we had to wait for another 30 minutes for the other key to be delivered to the replacement room. Overall extremely unsatisfying experience and the unorganised management was unfriendly toward the customer.
The views of the property and the overall landscape around it.

United KingdomThere was no air con which wasn’t a problem during the day as the villa stays cool but at night we needed the doors/windows open & it was extremely windy some nights so lots of noise/banging doors. No curtain in 1 of the bedrooms so that became very warm. It would have been nice to have a table/chairs on the balcony. The coffee machine didn’t work.
Beautiful location away from the crowds of Albufeira. Great views from the top floor of 3-bed villa. You can see the sea from master bedroom. Gardens were lovely. Nice pool area & we had the pool to ourselves some of the time. The 3 bed villa is very spacious & over 2 floors with 2 bathrooms, a laundry room & roof top area.
