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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

SloveniaThe room was a bit cold at night, no heater in the room.
Beautiful property, stylish, and wonderful garden... a real paradise! Even though it is nearby the airport, it is not a problem at all, as there is so little traffic. The owners went above and beyond to accommodate us, and we would recommend this stay to anyone who is looking for a boutique getaway!

GermanyAna and all the staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was very cosy and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. The farm is lovely so take some time to walk around. Some of the buganvílias were still blooming, making the whole stay even more admirable.

NetherlandsNo good restaurants within 5km, you need to do groceries and cook for yourself before your stay or drive to the city to have a good meal.
Everything! Very nice bedroom, nice private bathroom and a shared kitchen! Parking spots are outside the gate. From the moment we enter the gate, we're surrounded by plants and flowers, beautiful buildings in harmony with nature. Fruit trees, big garden on the back offers a relaxing walk. Owners are very kind.

This place was just perfect! Such a lovely house with a nice sea view and a beautiful garden. The breakfast at the terrace was amazing. Although it is very close to the airport, it is very quiet and relaxed. There is not much air traffic on Faial. We wished we could have stayed longer. This was one of the best and most comfortable stays on our trip to the Azores. Highly recommended!

Czech RepublicThe atmosphere at the accommodation is very friendly and easy-going, the host lady is super nice, the whole property is a farm with the beautiful garden, cows, chicken and one very friendly dog :) We especially liked the breakfast at the terrace overlooking the field with cows, sea and the airport runaway. Despite the location very close to the airport, we didn’t hear any noise at night and slept very well :)

PortugalI loved my stay at Quinta das Buganvílias. Ana gives attention to every detail and you can feel that she puts her heart into her work to make sure guests have a memorable stay. To start the day on the breakfast terrace is just perfect. The occasional landing of an airplane offers a nice entertainment in the calm environment and should not be a point of concern. There are only few flights, most are propelled aircrafts and flights are only during the day. The garden with sea view is lovely and invites to spend some time on the comfy long-chairs or in the hammock. My room was full of light, super clean and lovely furnished and decorated. When the sky was clear I could see the majestic Mount Pico. Easy parking right at the entrance of the Quinta. My rental car was not ready when arriving at the airport and I walked the 7min to the Quinta. Perfect spot to explore the island. I went several times to Capelinhos to see this magical area in different day lights. I will definitely go back to Quinta das Buganvílas!

United StatesThis place is a gem!! The gardens here go on and on, and are filled with huge philodendrons, bromeliads, and orchids. There is even a tunnel to the ocean! It truly is a magical place and the staff was amazing.
