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 KingdomNo Host to meet. No information in the apartment (about local info like buses etc.) No “front” door. I think it had been damaged. The gardens and landscaped areas were incomplete with pipes and cables everywhere. Walls unfinished etc. Building materials everywhere. 4 Euros per day to park car on the roof was a joke! In cash!
The apartment was very clean and looked new with terrific views. The apartment had everything we needed. Very comfortable.

United KingdomSome basics such as milk, bread & margarine on arrival would have been good, as we arrived late, so couldn’t get anything until the next morning. We would have been willing to pay extra for these, so maybe that is a service the owners could consider offering, as the local shop shuts at 2pm in the afternoon.
We loved everything about this accommodation. It’s fairly new, so everything was in great condition and I think it was exceptional value for money. As you will see from other reviews, there are a lot of steps up to the appt. but that wasn’t an issue for us. It’s a short bus ride in to the town, or about €8 in a taxi, if you don’t like steep hills! However, the benefit of staying a little but further out of the centre is that the views are wonderful and the local pub & cafe prices are also much cheaper. There is a small shop just down the road for basic supplies and a pub at the end of the road. We found a great cafe - with fresh home made food - on route into Funchal. All in all, I think this is a great location with easy access to everything that you might need. We didn’t use the pool, but I think it would be great to help cool off in the warmer months. Hopefully, we will be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay. 10 out of 10!

United KingdomThe apartment itself couldn’t really be improved, it’s lovely. However the location was a disadvantage for us. If you have a hire car it would probably be fine (steep hills and narrow roads are everywhere). We were using the buses and found the number 19 the best option back up the hill (if you are there for a week I’d recommend getting a Giro card with a number of rides preloaded - like the Oyster card in London). It meant that we often didn’t feel like going into the city centre in the evening after a day’s sightseeing. We didn’t find any restaurants, bars, supermarkets etc locally. Taxis from the city centre up to the apartment were between €5-€8. From the entrance doorway at street level there were approx 150 steep steps up to our apartment. If you have a car you park up behind the apartments so could avoid most of these steps. Despite this, we did enjoy our stay.
The apartment (10) is a stylish studio with modern styling and furnishings. The small complex seems very new and consequently all the furnishings etc are in excellent condition, and everything was spotlessly clean. It is situated in a residential area. The bed was really comfortable. The balcony has a fabulous view over the bay. The complex manager was friendly, speaking good English, and was able to help us with transport questions etc. A hair drier was provided, plus salt and pepper, washing up liquid and a few washing machine tablets. The swimming pool area was nice, with loungers, etc but the water was too cold for us to use it in February (not surprisingly).

HungaryEverything was good.
It's on a beautiful place, the landscape is amazing, we could see Funchal from the terrace. The room was clean, large and very comfortable. We used the kitchen almost every day to make dinner, we had everything, what we needed. The wifi is good, we didn't had any problem. The parking space is not big, but its because Madeira. Maybe we could have a parking space on the streets, but it was okey for this money. We recommend this apartment for everyone, one of the best, that i ever booked.

United KingdomThe access up very steep stairs can be daunting and tricky when carrying suitcases etc - useful to give some advance warning. It would be helpful to provide some paperwork eg about how the hob and microwave work and the arrangements for washing and cleaning.
The apartment was lovely, with great facilities and fabulous views. The staff were all really helpful.

RussiaThe property have 2 major flaws: 1) slippery high stairs with NO handles. Once it rains, it is impossible to walk without falling, so my husband felt and slided down the stairs 2) the property is uphill, so roads to the city center are difficult to walk because of high incline, better use taxi. Same applies to returning from center to the hotel. Also I have seen couple of worms in the bath sink after a rain. But I guess it is normal for Madeira.
The view is great. Rooms are designed properly and the personnel were helpful.

IrelandEverything at the property was great. We got there very late because our flight delayed but everything was ready for us. The cot and the sofa bed was ready for us. The place was very clean and we had everything that we needed for kitchen. Carla is exceptional. She even bought milk for my little girl. 😊. Mariza picked up us at the airport. Lovely woman, so energetic person . The apartment is very well located, the view is stunning and we were delighted with the fireworks show. There’re bus stop with 2 routes to the centre. The táxi is very cheap and if you want to walk to the centre is not to far. We used to go by foot and come back by taxi. We are already planning to come back if possible for summer and December too. Highly recommend this place.

CroatiaIt's worth noting that there's a steep climb, which might be challenging with heavy luggage. Also, there are no shops or restaurants nearby, so having a car is preferable. Taxis and bolts can be unreliable, especially with the hill climb, so plan accordingly. Access to Netflix but no subscription. Huge bathroom but no towel hangers. It would be nice if coffee capsules were provided.
My week-long stay at Carla's apartment in Funchal was nice, especially with my son. The cozy atmosphere and lovely views made our stay delightful.
