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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

CanadaThere was nothing that we did not like. It was a great stay.
Breakfast was very good with a selection of homemade preserves, eggs if you liked, and all served by the very friendly helpful owner. The location was a bit isolated but well worth the extra drive.

LuxembourgIt was a little bit difficult to find, as there are no signs for the "Arca dos Animais", and you have to drive through an unpaved road. We called them and they were helpful in guiding us down the path to the Arca.
The owner decorated the place with great attention to detail, displaying her love for mixing antiquities with a modern touch. Everything was very clean and the staff was really helpful

NetherlandsWe are Genius level 3 this year and have been in many places. The compound is in the middle of nowhere 10 km outside Castelo Branco. The pool is really small and when another big family is in the pool the whole day from mornings till closing it is ridiculous to think we will be relaxed there. Especially if there are multiple babies and toddlers. We just had to leave there to have some comfort. We paid very much per night and we did not want to be there, there is no place to go to where you can relax except for the small pool. The breakfast was not good. The first day there was very little bread only 3 slices and they were hard and dry. The toppings were warm and simply insufficient. The second day we brought our own bread and food to the breakfast. Bread was better the second day, but same problem with the rest. This time the owner was there and that was a big improvement over the day before, but still not good. We ended up spending the day at the public swimming pool of Castelo Branco where you can relax on the grass in the shade and swim. Another thing is that in one of our rooms there were a lot of mosquitos, we killed around 20 of them, but still the kids got bitten a few times each. The other room had no mosquitos.
Rooms were nice
