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 KingdomThere was an awful smell in one of our rooms, to the point we had to move, and then the smell was also on the next room. We spoke with the managers and their response was to ignore us and say it wasn’t their problem. The smell was honestly truly horrendous. We were fortunate enough to have two bathrooms but one was completely unusable and the other still had a smell. We spoke with other guests and they had the same issue with a smell from the drains and the same couldn’t care less response from management. The staff in the bar were unbelievably rude and clearly hated their job and the prices were extortionate. A bottle of wine 26 eur when average in a restaurant is 18 eur. The other room we had also flooded everytime you showered. Overall I would stay away from this hotel. Massive shame as just been refurbed the but smell is just impossible to live with.
The property was clean and located well.

Modern beautiful boutique hotel. Right in the heart of Lagos. Extremely helpful and attentive management and staff. We spent 4 weeks in Portugal and this was by far the most impressive accommodation amongst a number of otherwise overrated, overpriced and photoshopped also-rans.

Ireland- there is a drain/sewage issue and the bathrooms and rooms absolutely stink. We had to change rooms to try to avoid this smell - as did several other people during our stay. The room change took hours and the smell was often even at the pool. - the beds were filthy. We were checking for bedbugs due to the current epidemic and we found dirt upon dirt upon dirt. - the towels were musty, smelly and dirty. We asked for new towels, they were just as bad. - the staff were understanding at first but are obviously very used to these complaints and they don't seem to care too much. They were also extremely slow. - horrible, stinking lift to the rooms
Location was grand, cheap taxis to wherever you're going. But that is the only positive of this hotel

United KingdomCouldnt fault it
We stayed B&B in room 606…one of the best rooms overlooking the pool. The facilities were exactly what we required for our stay very relaxing. Breakfast was excellent everything you could want was provided. Staff were amazing…our breakfast waiter(sorry but forgot your name🫣) was lovely and brilliant as he was working alone. Although a 15 minute walk from the Old Town it was a nice walk and only €4 in a cab…great location. Finally as we left Fernando came out and shook our hands, asked about our stay was lovely and friendly, would definately recommend.

IrelandThere was a terrible smell of sewerage in our entire room. I reported it twice before something was done. The cleaners came in and then the smell went away for an hour but it came back as bad as ever. Clothes began to smell of dampness from hanging up in the room. We feel we paid too much to be left smelling this and I also suffered headaches from the awful fumes. We won't return as we felt that we were fobbed off when we complained.
Air conditioning was good. Location was good. Supermarket and old town were a short walk away.

United KingdomThe terrible smell in the toilet, asked to get moved, which we did, next door, manager stated there hadn’t been any reports of the sewage problem even although we questioned this. Unfortunately when we returned that night the smell was present, only solution was to buy toilet cleaner to mask the smell until we came home.
The breakfast was lovely and the pool area was great, very relaxing and problem get a sun bed. Staff were helpful

CanadaOur stay could not have been better.
Our stay was incredible. The hotel was new, impeccably clean and filled with wonderful staff. Located right near the Tourist train, it was an easy way to get to the beach and around the city. Steps away from local restaurants and supermarkets, it was ideal. The pool was the best way to refresh and end our day - perfect for young family's, like ours, as the pool/bar closes early (8 PM). Shout out to Fernando, at Front Desk, who made our stay perfect. If we are every back in Albufeira - we will be staying here.

South AfricaThe room had a really bad odour. Despite requests to change the room, it was only done after the first night. The cleaners are horrible to deal with. They are miserly with toilet paper and soap. A 200euro cash breakage deposit is required but you are only made aware of this after you confirm the booking. Definitely wont stay here again

United KingdomAs soon as we arrived there was a terrible smell from one of the bathrooms! We went to reception to tell them the problem one of the staff came with us to have a look and was taken aback with the smell! And said he will talk to the manager but no one came to sort the problem. There was 4 of us using one bathroom we were there for 4 days went to reception numerous times but nothing was done. Will never use this hotel again even if it was given for free.

South AfricaThe room had a strench , on the 2nd floor, secondly the hotel took a refundable deposit in cash upon our arrival. This was only mentioned to me at arrival.... i have never had this before.... and they already had my credit card details on file.Also felt that some of the pool staff were extremely rude
Good morning. My staff at your hotel was somewhat mediocre. The only saving grace to our experience was the friendliness and helpfulness of Fernando.... I needed to mention him by name, as he may have been the key reason, we felt the visit was mediocre
