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.).

A big thanks to Mateus, Tainá, Daniel, Estefany, and Jess for making the time at Lamparina feeling like a flat share and like home and the lots of laughs. Everytime again. <3

CanadaOur room could have been cleaned a bit more thoroughly as there were some dust balls on the ground when we checked in.
Staff were super friendly and helpful with suggestions and getting around the city. Location was great, 10 min walk to the metro station, grocery store and restaurants nearby. On Sunday, there was even a small street market around the corner. Bathrooms were cleaned daily.

RussiaI wish I didn't have to wait outside in the early morning, even though I arrived during reception working hours. But the neighborhood seems safe enough + it was Christmas + the staff was really nice about it, so it all worked out in the end.
I was lucky enough to visit around Christmas, when the hostel wasn't too full, and when I had to wait outside the gate for about 40 minutes, the staff was really nice about it and offered to move me from a female dorm to a private room (it had 3 beds, but no one was staying there), as well as stay in the room past check-out time on Christmas Day, because my flight was late at night, all free of charge. It was a perfect place to end my trip, get some rest before a long journey back. There was a Sunday farmer's market right next to it, and the subway stop was very close as well. The kitchen is very well-equipped, which was a blessing after other hostels I stayed at during my time in Brazil. There was no AC in the room, only a ceiling fan, but I was extremely happy about that because ACs make me sick. All common spaces were very cozy. I loved everything about my stay at Lamparina!

GermanyThe girls room was not good. The beds are really loud and wiggling with every movement.
The mixed dorm was fantastic! There are curtains at every bed, plugs and light and it really feels like a private place. Can totally recommend those. Staff in the hostels speaks no English but still is trying their best and is amazing!!
