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.).

United KingdomSome outside space would have been nice, other than at the front door area. But, this didn't spoil our stay and isn't possible anyway.
The host was absolutely fabulous. Although Paula was in Madrid, looking after her sister, her contact and communications were excellent. Paula was very friendly and accomodating. The one bed apartment was spacious and well kitted out. The bed large and comfortable. The shower was good.

This lovely place was perfect. We were so sad to leave and will return. The home had everything that you could need and was spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed, great shower and the host provided beach chairs and an unbrella. There was a little patio set also. The spectacular promenade and beach are a minute away. Great shopping, restaurants and lots of very kind local people. Fantastic! Our host was the kindest we have ever met in many years of travel. She was kind, helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. We will not forget.

United KingdomNothing to report here. We did our research so knew about the tram and parking - approx 5 minutes from the apartment. No problems.
Space indoors and outside - we loved the balcony for breakfast and the garden during the day. Very clean and comfortable. We used the washing machine and did some cooking - all equipment worked really well.

United KingdomJust returned from 10 nights at the smaller house that makes up part of Casa de Agua. It is a fantastic large room with kitchen and seating area just inside the door and then up a couple of steps to the really large bedroom and bathroom area. A small covered seating area outside the front door which looks straight down a pedestrianised cobbled street to the main road and beachfront. Paula the host was really helpful and friendly throughout and the cleaning team did a great job as well. Excellent location, really handy for the beach, station and Old Town and really nice local people living on the street as well.

United KingdomPaula is an amazing host, we loved the house and it was beautifully decorated and impeccably clean. So many extra little touches that you don’t normally get with self catering. Very impressed. Noticed previous comments about the tram, but it wasn’t a problem for us and it lasts seconds.

NorwayNothing to dislike here!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at a hidden gem that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were overwhelmed by the exquisite interior, perfect location, unmatched comfort, impeccable cleanliness, and above all, the exceptional service provided by our host, Paula. She went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of amazing. Paula had thought of every detail to make our stay truly memorable. The beds were incredibly comfortable, adorned with an abundance of pillows, ensuring a restful sleep every night. The house was stocked with a generous supply of utilities, soaps and cleaning products. We were even pleasantly surprised to find a fully equipped laundry area, complete with a washing machine, detergents, and a drying rack. It was evident that no effort was spared to ensure our comfort and convenience. Communication with Paula was a breeze, as she was always prompt and helpful in addressing any inquiries we had. Her dedication to making our stay enjoyable was evident in her warm and friendly demeanor. We were truly touched when Paula surprised us with a basket of freshly picked oranges and fruits from her own garden. It was such a thoughtful gesture that made us feel truly welcome and appreciated. The attention to detail and the level of service provided by Paula was unparalleled. It is rare to come across a host who genuinely cares about the well-being of their guests and goes the extra mile to ensure their satisfaction. Paula's genuine warmth and hospitality created an atmosphere that made us feel like we were staying at a friends house rather than in a rental property. We were so impressed by our experience that we have already made arrangements for a return visit. This hidden treasure is a must-visit for anyone seeking a remarkable and unforgettable stay. We cannot recommend it enough. Thank you, Paula, for providing us with an exceptional home away from home.

United KingdomI hadn’t realised that I had booked the basement apartment,I thought it was the property above.The basement is very old & so suffers from damp & needs de-humidifiers on when you are not there.I didn’t like the fact that there were no windows to look out of & really no place to sit out.
The apartment is very unusual & very spacious.The decor was clean & the apartment was equipped with all the necessary essentials.Paula the host was very helpful & gave us a lot of good recommendations of where to eat & what to do.Was nice to have a complimentary bottle of red & tea & coffee in room.Location is very good within east walking distance of beach & old town.

United Kingdomthe windows are high up the walls near the ceiling and only at the front so you couldn’t actually see out of the room. there was only a tiny snug outside the front door if you wanted to sit outside. you can also hear the trains running underneath Altea - they don’t start until about 6.30 and finish at 11 and didn’t worry us as we were out a lot but hadn’t expected to hear them.
the room we stayed in was similar to a cellar - it was lovely whitewashed walls and had been finished really nicely. it was located 5 minutes walk from the seafront of Altea and a 10 minute walk uphill to the old town. it was extremely well equipped and comfortable with lots of space
