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 Statesthe distance to walk from the cathedral, but we walked many km to reach Santiago with Camino so it didn't much matter, but we arrive to a nice place so it is important.
Martha the receptionist was very helpful and very welcoming, The staff helped to put our luggages in the room. She also was a great resource in helping with directions to bus station and recommendation of transportation. Room was great , beds were comfortable , the view of the cathedral from our room window was so nice.

United KingdomIt was a little loud at night but this was mainly due to the festival that only takes place the weekend we were staying.

FranceWhen I booked I asked about breakfast, I was told they didn't provide breakfast. When we arrived a note in our room said we could have breakfast if we booked before 9pm. It was 3pm so I asked to book breakfast. I was told there wasn't any. The next morning we got up to go to the café at the end of the road. People were having breakfast! If you have a car the car park is a bit of a walk. You cant park outside to unload as its a busy road.
The room was comfortable. We had a view of the Cathedral. The bathroom needs an upgrade.

IrelandWe had a room with a view of the Cathedral. The large room was spotlessly clean. It was cold the first two nights there and extra blankets were available. The location of the property was ideal for sightseeing. Short walk to the Cathedral, restaurants, shops and a beautiful park. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

United KingdomNo negatives
There wasn't a single negative about Hotel Pazos Alba that I can possibly think of. Exceptional value for money, incredibly friendly, smiley, helpful and charismatic young staff. The premises were absolutely spotless throughout. Clear and concise instructions were also sent to me regarding gaining access to my room (as the reception closes at 9pm), so comms are absolutely spot on. The staff also spoke exceptionally good English; although this wasn't a problem for me personally as my partner is Spanish/Catalan anyway. Reception staff also provided good recommendations as where to eat locally, and where to catch the bus from back to the airport. All of this, plus only 5 minutes walk away from the Old Town and the Cathedral. The young lady on reception, didn't even wish to take the tip I provided her with (but I insisted she took) for her exceptional service! How humble is that? I would stay there again, at the drop of a hat.

Our room had an incredible view of the historical downtown and was a short walk from all the attractions. The staff were also very kind. We would certainly return again in the future.
