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 KingdomBreakfast needs a lot of improvement: not fresh juice, not fresh pastries - only processed baked cakes. No fruit. Only sandwich bread to make toasts. Some fresh bread would have been great. You can hear your neighbours.
Very cosy hotel. My room was small but big enough for just one person to spend one night. Right temperature at night. Comfy bed.

SpainThe mattress was too soft and clearly in need of replacement. We both slept poorly and woke up sore. The temperature is controlled externally, so we were cold during the day and too hot at night. The room is tiny and it is difficult to move around in the space. Our shower leaked and flooded the bathroom, and the solution provided was to put a rolled up towel next to the shower to absorb the water. The breakfast was ok but there was nothing fresh provided.
Friendly staff, easy check-in. Nice location by the beach and a short walk from several restaurants.

ItalyThe room was very small and the double bed even smaller and quite uncomfortable. At our arrival were not towels in the room and after our request the receptionist provide something like towels (there were more like rags rather than towels). We assume that because the cleaning staff were off those towels (rags) will be changed the following day. It didn’t happen. It is a shame that a hotel that call itself boutique does not reach the proper standard expected for that name and the staff is not up to the standards either.
The location is great for the beach (Sardinero). The hotel has charme as an old house.

Michele
United KingdomThe tiny bed was rockhard and very squeaky. The bathroom needed a deep clean. The room had far too much furniture for such a tiny space. The photos on the website must be taken with a wide angle lens. You needed to do a 12 point turn to get in and out of the bathroom. Very airless room , so needed the windows open which created a security issue with the windows opening onto a courtyard. No sound proofing as every toilet visit and movement by neighbours was audible. One night was more than enough. No shared lounge area for additional space
Friendly staff and close location to the beach...looked quaint. Great to have a kettle to make a drink. Hairdryer and iron/ board available . Presented beautifully.
