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.).

ItalyRooms are slightly small but really comfortable. I would have loved having a full size mirror in the room
I loved Villa Bulan: you feel like at home and it's really calm and quiet.

BrazilToiletries could be better. (shampoo) Better lighting in the bathroom. A bit dark
the friendly and efficient staff. Lorena was very nice! Katia’s breakfast is delicious. Flash, the cat. So friendly and cute. The pool, nice warm water. The garden and decoration. The peace and quiet. A short walk to the beach. Easy to get transport into town.

United KingdomThe location was so peaceful but just a little far from the centre of Arraial d’Ajuda, about a 15/20 minute walk or a 5 minute taxi journey. We knew this already and which is why it was a peaceful area. Other than breakfast there’s no other food or snacks served through out the day.
We absolutely loved and appreciated the fact that Villa Bulan were happy to cater for us to have a vegan breakfast each morning, it was delicious. Ramon & Gustavo were excellent and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible.

GermanyThe room was bellow standard. Lack of maintenance, with things that were broken / didn’t work, or broke at the first touch. Not enough practical aspects such as power sockets for charging phones and a big gap between the mattress and the bed frame. Breakfast also not tasty, not good quality and store bought. Tapiocas dry.
The pool and garden were beautiful. Reception team was lovely and helpful, which was a relief because we had many issues.

United KingdomAesthetics covered very poor facilities and service. Bed was very uncomfortable and aircon poor. The breakfast was terrible - the worst I've ever had at a hotel. The butter was rancid, Hot chocolate arrived as powder with no milk or water, cake was raw and scrambled eggs had separated. The worst was that the rooms were not cleaned and on our final day they forgot to serve breakfast at all. Terrible service and no compensation - avoid
The hotel looks very impressive upon arrival. Staff friendly and room very pretty.
