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 KingdomIt was hard to find a plug point and we had to disconnect TV to use one. A round of repairs/renovation would do no harm.
Host was very polite and welcoming. He also served us well at the eating areas. Breakfast was a bargain for 7 euros. restaurant has a nice view of the creek. Hotel is just across the street from beach and closeby to restaurants and bus stop.

NetherlandsOur room stank of stale smoke. Reception suggested this was from people smoking on the balcony. It clearly wasn't. The room was ingrained with the stink of stale tobacco. I suspect this may have been from the sofa bed which had several burn marks on it. Bathroom was very small, the toilet seat wasn't well anchored, the shower screen was only a metre above the level of the bath and the shower hose was very short. We were directly above the restaurant and there was a singer performing there. It was extremely loud and hard to get rest before an early start.
Reception friendly and helpful. Room ready half an hour before official check in and a nice view to the river. Beware though make sure you wear mosquito repellent as I got bitten several times. Room was clean if a little tired but beds were comfortable.

United KingdomThe biggest challenge - even though I like a firm mattress - is that the mattresses were pretty much solid. And only one pillow each which was a bit annoying. Also made me laugh but if you want to use the kettle you need to place it on the floor as the lead doesn't reach the table.
This is a lovely little hotel with friendly staff, right next to (but not on) the beach (it's on the river) - the beach is literally just over the road - had a proper ocean view to look on in the morning before my swim. It is clean and functional - yes it's a bit dated (the hairdryer was, err, well ... if you want power take your own!) but it was good for our 3 night trip. If you don't want to be on the road - ask for a river-side room (all rooms get some kind of view which is nice) If I went back to Faro I'd definitely stay in this area again rather than the town (I love the beach and ocean) and would probably stay here again if I couldn't get a beach-front place. I can't comment on the food as we didn't eat in the restaurant - we don't really do breakfast and took our other meals at the beach-side restaurants.

IrelandI didn’t mind it, but I think the older bathrooms might not be to everyone’s taste. The shower was certainly too small and low for me.
It’s a family-run small hotel that kept most of its 70s charm, directly on the beach.

Staff really nice. Location is perfect, frontine beach and close to the airport (no noise). Some nice tea and cookies for free when you arrive. The view was amazing from all angels as you have water around you and sunset on one side and sunrise on the other.
