Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score 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’re currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil, and North Carolina. For properties in these areas, 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 like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The owner was so welcoming and accommodating. She asked us if we wanted dinner. She cooked us an amazing bacalhau dinner that was wonderful. Her breakfast was fabulous as well. She cooked us scrambled eggs along with the other items of fruits, juices, croissants, meats and cheeses.

United KingdomThere was nothing that we did not like.
An absolute gem of a place. Small but beautiful facilities, lovely scenic and tranquil location, and the lady proprietor mad us the most fantastic meal in the evening and not expensive. Breakfast was also good. She could not communicate in English and we could not in Portuguese but we all tried our best and got by. The most fantastic bottle of local wine which was one of the best wines we have ever had and we have not been able to source locally to where we are now. All just perfect and a perfect stop-off place between France and Portugal.

Absolutely everything! Adelaide was the most amazing host. We couldn’t ask for anything more. She cooked us a beautiful breakfast in the morning (croissant, cheese, prosciutto, scrambled egg, toast, spreads) and made us a delicious dinner at night. She was so lovely and accomodating. If we ever come back to Elvas we will be coming back here!

GermanyThe place is a bit far out of town down a narrow road. The bed was a bit hard. 10€ for our little antiallergic doggie is a bit pricey!
Lovely, really sweet host. Excellent and plentiful breakfast!!! We loved that we could pull up to the door to take our luggage out! Small but sufficient studio. Great new bathroom with excellent shower. Lovely super white bedding. Very clean place!
