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.).

We received a warm welcome from our host with plenty of tips and suggestions on places to see and visit. The location was a little out of town (perfect for us getting used to a hire car) but this meant amazing views over Sintra. Supermarkets and food options were conveniently close.

ItalyThe apartment was very clean, but the only negative thing I would point out is that there wasn't a great smell in the bathroom. But it didn't bother us that much, so all in all I would highly recommend!:)
Cristina was very kind, offering us a bottle of wine and water on our arrival and giving us advice on the places to visit in Sintra. She was also very flexible about check-in time. While booking our night, these little houses immediately caught my attention and they were in fact very cute and had everything we needed. There is lots of space for parking and it's not far from Sintra by car.

United StatesWiFi didn't really work in the cabins, so it was hard to look things up to get directions when coming and going from the property. The shower reminded me of an RV. Basically the whole floor of the bathroom becomes the shower floor and it gets tight. A very tiny living multi use space. It was totally fine in operation, but not my favorite shower or toilet experience on the trip. It did get the job done though!
The view was gorgeous and tucked away. At night we sat out on the porch and drank wine with a view of Pena Palace, which was unique. The host is very friendly and the grounds are well cared for.

A wonderful stay! Christina made this home from home, giving us useful local advice and making sure we had all we needed. The pods are clean, well equipped and peaceful. You need a car to head into Sintra, but we found this the perfect spot to get away from the bustle of the tourist spots. Plus the dogs were a lovely bonus as a welcome party!

LuxembourgThe bathroom could have more hooks to hang up towels or a nécessaire. The flush for the toilet could have been stronger. The App for opening the front gate was sometimes not working well or had to be restarted. A small guide/handbook or introduction for the air conditioning would be helpful.
Very quiet area with a beautiful view on the national park of Sintra. Very clean space with a fully equipped kitchen. Good parking conditions. Hammock included. Very space efficient housing.

The first week of our travels throughout Portugal quickly became a very special experience and an unforgettable memory. Our charming cabin was exactly as pictured, with no detail overlooked by the owners/property managers. We loved the attention that was dedicated to the construction and aesthetics of this property. The tiny kitchen was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything necessary to prepare simple meals. The location is convenient, located close to town but in a quiet, tucked away setting. The view was lovely, and we particularly liked hearing the birds singing in the morning. Best of all, we had the pleasure to meet Cristina and Nuno, our hosts, who we now consider our friends. Our hosts were friendly, responsive, generous, attentive and accommodating. Thank you again; we plan to return for another stay in the future.
