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.).

IsraelVery nice, lovely and quite area. A lot of green outside including a nice spring nearby and an old well in the courtyard. We had to leave very early in the morning and the owner arranged for us in the evening a generous breakfast to take with us. We will be happy to come once again for longer time.

United KingdomIt was a bit of challenge to get there in the evening as the property is in a tiny village. We got a bit lost on the way...
It is a beautiful property with a very homely feeling and within a tranquil environment. Just ideal to forget the world! Despite our late arrival due to travel problems, a very friendly older lady drove to the property to let us in in person. The next morning, she also came in a bit earlier for us to make sure to we had breakfast before our early departure. You couldn't have asked for a better service! It was a shame we had to leave so early. It is a perfect location to enjoy a quite weekend in nature.

Czech RepublicNot very functional air conditioning in the rooms. There was only one window in the room, which was a part of the door and could not be opened independently. Coupled with the air conditioning not working well, this meant the rooms were too hot at night.
Accommodation on a wonderful ancient farm. Very pleasant atmosphere and very nice owners. The breakfasts prepared by Mrs. Augusta were amazing.

Beautiful old farmhouse with super friendly staff. Surrounding area is actually quite pretty to get some hiking done. If we are ever back in Portugal, we will definitely return here for some comfy rest days.

United StatesThere was nothing that we strongly disliked. The only thing that I thought from a design/aesthetic perspective is that the the colors in the restrooms could tone down a bit. Just didn’t think it quite matched the rest of the house but this is a very minor thing. Restrooms were all functional and clean.
This is a beautifully updated Portuguese Farmhouse. The wood work and rustic decor inside the house took our breath away. For an older property, it’s very clean and comfortable. There were also many shared spaces inside and outside the property - The living room, game room, dining room, etc. We also liked that there were several fireplaces throughout the property to keep it warm, along with a heater in the room for our usage. We stayed at one end of the house, which had a door that separated our room and restroom as a separate wing which was great and gave us all the privacy we needed. The housekeeper was very sweet. Wi-Fi works. At night, we were able to look up and stargaze as well. This was also where my partner asked me to marry him so will forever remain a very special memory to us. We hope to visit again in the future.

GermanyThat we had to leave.
The ambience; the exceptional care taken by Augusta; the breakfast with homemade bread spreads, fresh orange juice, bottomless freshly brewed coffee served in grand style with warm milk; fresh breads and croissants and delicatessen quality cold meats sliced paper thin- and the setting where we enjoyed this filled with the finest antiquities! We couldn’t wish for more.
