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.).

PortugalVery noisy, sorry. The place echos voices and doors loudly and the bathroom next to the room means you'll hear every time someone uses it.
Great location, friendly surferhouse vibes. Bed is comfortable.

UkraineThe room and the bathroom did not lock which may be a bit comfortable to some people. The shower did not have enough pressure. The bathroom could be cleaner.
Good location, very comfortable bed and a nice garden. Clean room and strong wi-fi.

United States-Booked a room for 3 beds, was put in a room with 4 -No wifi in rooms or in house, only in the backyard -Several guests “quarantining” with Covid on property and owner hid this from us. Other guests told us. Unethical and illegal

GermanyThe Hostel is amazing if you like the surf livestyle! Most of the decorations and furniture is self made and the staff is always there to help. Since it is a pure surf hostel the people visiting it are really chill and nice to talk to!

IndiaIt could be cleaner.
Place with an amazing vibe. Great and friendly people, loads of fun, just perfect for surfers (with all the facilities like outdoor shower, sheds for surfboards and drying wetsuits ....), amazing garden for chill and meeting other people. If you wanna take it easy, chill, surf and meet new cool people, that`s the place. Good for coworking too.

GermanyBest basecamp for a surftrip. The Highway to Swell Motel attracts definteley only the best people in that area. You will find surfers with open minds and open hearts to share sessions and memories with, beyond your stay!

Germany- the room had a strange smell that did not go away even though I opened the windows all the time - it could have been cleaner. I have asked one of the employees if I could borrow a sleeping broom as I have brought in sand from the beach. She gave me one that had a lot of dirt and hair attached. It looked disgusting. - the property seems to be a lot into upcycling old things. But at times I wondered if it was really intended to have for instance dishes that looked broken or if it was just neglect
- I have booked a room for 2 people with shared bathroom and kitchen and was upgraded to a room with private bathroom and kitchen - the WiFi was good in my room - the property separates garbage - there is a small garden with nice trees
