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.).

IndiaLoved everything about it. No complaints
The property is right on the beach. I did not have to go anywhere to see the sun set. Yazu, which is an in-house restaurant has the perfect sunset view.

United KingdomLots of mosquitos - but lots of greenery so…. Bring your repellent The run off around the pool was dirty and black Mould - difficult to get to clean it I imagine - especially during high season. But still it stained when it touched swim shorts and just looks horrid.
A great hotel in Camdolim - southern tip. Staff were so lovely and helpful. Special shout out to the pool staff. Room was comfortable and clean - make sure you book a view room. Not the basic deluxe double. These were no good. We moved. The food was excellent - we tried many things once breakfast buffet. All was great. Pool was lovely - but can get busy! There were lots of families there on our last day and it got really noisy. But we just moved down to the beach area so was ok. The beach and Yazu beach bar area was fab and wonderful to watch the sunset. Amazing trip - would def go back.

NorwayThe view from our room was a big «garbage dump» where they burned a lot of garden trash every day. The selection on the breakfast was ok, but mostly indian dishes. But since it was almost none western tourist in the hotel or in any place in Goa at the moment, we understand that.
Amazing staff that made us feel so welcome. Ozzy the manager is the best gyu, so funny and chatty and helpful and he did the stay for us. The pool area is very beautiful, the food and drinks they serve is great and good tasting both western dishes and indian. The location is great, so close to the beach.

IndiaThe room was facing the road. The staff at the reception were good. However when I had made a phone call from my home before reaching the hotel, the staff weren't as helpful. They had a tendency to say 'No' quite early. For example, I asked them if they had a kid's toilet seat. Initially the person said no. When I pushed a bit and asked them if they can arrange for one, he said he will transfer the call to reception. He could have been more positive to begin with. Eventually the housekeeping staff confirmed that the seat was available.
The location is excellent with good beach access , and a good hotel swimming pool. Breakfast was quite good with regular as well as south Indian options.
