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.).

I was lucky so I had the room all to myself, breakfast was buffet (and very good quality), also it was very quiet at night!

Very nice hostel, clean, rather modern, solid breakfast, and right on the Caminho.

MalaysiaLocation is slightly out of town. Between centre & train station. Will be great if breakfast could be earlier 7am instead of 8am especially for those walking the camino . Might consider having covered area for hand washed laundry.
Well kept hostel. Everything was clean. Bonus was the heating in the room. Excellent breakfast Towels were provided.

PortugalThe fact that the room was very cold. We were having an exceptional cold wave and the heating system did not warm enough. It was explained that it was because the room was at the enf of the corridor. We were offered a small portable thermoventilator to compensate.

PortugalNo complaints!
I felt warmly welcomed upon arrival by the staff - something I really appreciated on an otherwise terribly rainy day. It does get pretty cold in Cerveira during the winter months but the rooms are equipped with central heating and warm duvets.

PortugalThe kitchen (especially the fridge) could be bigger, given the number of guests who are using it. The doors of the rooms can be noisy sometimes.
I have been to Cerveira several times and I really appreciated the location of the pousada (close to buses and trains), the team (always ready to help), and the atmosphere (mainly pilgrims). The space is very clean and well maintained. Plus, the pousada is constantly trying to improve its services. One example: they recently added fresh vegetables to the breakfast. I also recommend this place for solo travelers as it feels very safe.

CanadaThe amount of vegan options is generally on the low side at every place I have been. While this place is no exception, to their credit, I could get soy milk upon request and could make do with the fruits, bread, cereal and jams available. Some hummus, plant based yogurt and roasted veggies would be a huge plus.
This place was my favorite stay during the Camino. Not only it was comfortable, very clean and well located, steps from the center of Vila Nova de Cerveira, but the staff was very pleasant to talk to, and they also had included a very nice buffet breakfast with lots of options. Well done. The city is a little Portuguese gem, known as City of the Arts, with numerous art pieces throughout to be contemplated. The core center is very lively with plenty of restaurants and tables outside.
