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.).

NetherlandsA beautiful house with courtyard in a quiet location close to the center of Funchal. And last but not least, a relaxed host who is there for you at the right times, who will pick you up from the airport, spoil you with wine and delicacies and with excellent tips for trips and restaurants.

GermanyNothing to complain about (maybe except of mosquitos but this is out of Hugo's hands)
I travel a lot and I won't exaggerate if I say that Hugo was the best host I have ever had. He went above and beyond to make our stay unique. Not only did he pick us up from the airport but also offered a drop off after our stay. We were welcomed with exotic fruits, cookies, cake, local wine and a bottle of water. Hugo also shared with us all his recommendations on where to eat/drink, what to see, how to organize things etc. Our stay in Casa da Avo Clementina was truly amazing and if we are ever back to Madeira (one can hope!) we will definitely stay here again. It was one of my best trips! Obrigada!

SloveniaVery friendly host who provided us with plenty of awesome information! The appartment is also amazing with a small terrace in the middle. All the ameneties that we needed were there. The location is also perfect as it really does not require a steep walk on the streets on Funchal (5min walking Mercado dos Lavradores). Would recommend to everyone!

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing
Quite possibly the best place we've stayed while travelling! The host and the accommodation were amazing. Hugo went above and beyond as host. He gave recommendations through WhatsApp and a personally annotated map of Funchal and Madeira island, left local wine, fruits and biscuits upon arrival, and picked us up from our accommodation in Porto da Cruz and dropped us off at the airport. The accommodation was absolutely brilliant! It was clean, had bath towels and beach towels, a small garden to sit in during the day and a living room with a TV.

RomaniaEverything was just perfect!
We fully enjoyed every single minute we spent in Funchal and Casa da Avo Clementina exceeded by far all our expectations. Located only a few minutes away from the city center, the house is so comfortable, clean, well-appointed and authentic. We particularly enjoyed the vintage feeling with the heavy wood furniture which reminded us so dearly of our own grandparents' homes, yet having all the modern appliances readily available. But the best of all was our host, Hugo, who kept in touch with us the whole time, greeted us with fresh fruit, cake, cold water and a wonderful bottle of Madeira wine. He took the time to suggest what we could visit around, recommend restaurants that were excellent, made sure that we had everything we needed and more. Thank you, Hugo, for everything, we hope to be back some day!

The host was extremely helpful and friendly. His advice regarding places to visit or restaurants to eat out was very precise and up to the point. The location is perfect: you can reach everything in the city on foot.

RomaniaI am a VERY demanding guest. I rarely find a place that exceeds my expectations. And I almost never find a place that I don't need to clean a bit on my own or that doesn't a few "glitches". But I did now. We spent a month at A Casa Da Avo Clementina and by the end of our stay, we felt it was our second home. You'll have everything you need here, from dishes to a washing machine, towels (even beach towels!), outlets, and more. The house is impeccable! Think 5-star hotel cleanliness and sheet brightness minus the dust that typically gathers in hotels, no matter how luxurious they are. But here, everything was spotless, from sheets and towels to dishes and surfaces in general. It's not a big house, but it's so well decorated and furnished that it feels very spacious and comfortable. The backyard is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening Barbeito (thank you, Hugo!). A Casa Da Avo Clementina is also ideally located: it's close to the city center, bus stops, market and supermarkets, pastry shops, and more. You have everything you need within walking distance with an important bonus if you're a light sleeper: the house is on a quiet tiny street, away from the main boulevard, so it's wonderfully quiet. To top it all up, you'll have wonderful hosts. Hugo and Benvinda spoiled us with local goodies and always took care that we have everything we need. We constantly received tips and information about local events, restaurants, places to try, and a lot of other things. This made a world of difference for us because we usually avoid tourist-crammed spots and go for the ones where locals hang out. Having recommendations from a caring local is far better than researching things on your own. In the end, we just hope we were good enough guests to deserve the kindness and hospitality of our amazing hosts. Muito obrigados para tudo, Hugo and Benvinda! We can't wait to see you again!
