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.).

NorwayVery little to mislike - luckely we had good neighbours - without nosie and loud chatting. The garden personal can thoug send out a message if they start bigger renovations. Then we choose orher options than the pool that day.
The view over the city and ocean, (but steepy roads if go to the center). But waking up in the morning we could listen to beautiful birds song. The athmosphere is great, the pool, spacy apartement room, well equiepped. We choose the breakfast basquet every morning, it was so lovely to start the day like this. The personal was very helpful.

United KingdomWe were aware that a refurbishment is due in the room that we used, as the kitchen units are deteriorating and some paint in need of renewal, but this did spoil a great stay and holiday.
Everything was great. Check-in was welcoming and professional, room was lovely and very clean. Beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed the pool and Club cafe/bar. All the staff were great and friendly, from the cleaning staff up to the two lady working owners who were always happy to answer your questions.

Lovely and quiet area, nice place to relax around the pool, apartment was very comfortable. Staff arranged an early morning taxi to the airport for us at a good price which was very appreciated.

GermanyThe roads are very steep, so you have to be fit to walk downtown or to the botanical garden and be careful when you drive.
The property is really large and beautiful with many gardens, pool and cafe. The rooms are spacious and the balcony has an amazing view on the harbour. The apartments are cleaned regularly and the staff is super friendly. A bakery and Mini market is only 5 minutes away and downtown is 15 minutes. Free parking is available.

IcelandMaybe bad research on our side but good for the next ones. It's quite high up the hill and the hike from downtown will tear your muscles :) So great with a rental car otherwise count a few euros to get back with taxis :)
Lovely place, homey feeling in the heart of a lovely neighbourhood in Funchal. And above all, a really friendly staff, always up for a chat!

United KingdomThe rusty and chipped enamel bath and blackened shower head. Pretty sure the owner of the apartments wouldn’t accept a bathroom in that condition. Just glad we didn’t have to actually use the bath. Also the incessant dog barking at night is not acceptable. We live in Portugal and know that dogs barking is “a thing” but there are also laws against noise between the hours of 11pm and 7am (I think) we have had to involve the authorities in a dog barking situation. We are dog lovers and find the barking disturbing and upsetting as the dog must be distressed to keep on barking. Finally we received a leaflet saying that our room got cleaned every other day. We arrived on Friday and on Sunday our bins got emptied and the towels changed. Can only guess that’s what “cleaning” means!
We loved the pool, large balcony and view.

IrelandA little bit far from the action of the city but there are buses just outside. The walk is up a very steep hill and not for everyone.
A nice place in beautiful gardens with amazing views. The staff are all really friendly and good and the swimming pool is great in the evening. The cafe and bar are really nice too. The room was spacious and nice if just a bit dated. Clean and well kept place.

UkraineWe liked everything
If I could, I would put 20 stars! Everything was perfect: stunning view, comfortable apartment with everything you need, helpful and friendly staff, clean and well-kept territory, room cleaning, nice swimming pool. A lady from reception helped with car renting, it was very convenient to get it directly to the hotel and return there. Private parking had places all the time. It was really comfortable to stay here, seemed like you are a welcome guest but nobody bother you. Absolutely can recommend and hopefully will come back one day!

United KingdomThe beds could have been more comfortable but this is a minor point
The hotel we had booked in Funchal was overbooked. We were then transferred to two other unsuitable hotels. We were ready to give up and go home and saw and booked this apartment. We are so pleased we did. The view from our room was spectacular, the pool impressive and the staff excellent. We would highly recommend Quinta Mae dos Homens

SloveniaThe only problems we had were little ones, like some things being broken, which were fixed right away. But the most bothersome were the ants, because they came for our food and were quite hard to get rid of :/ We'd recommend some ant traps in all the apartments for the future :)
The apartment's surroundings are absolutely wonderful, the pool is an amazing addition that can be used any time of the day, since it's always open. The apartment was nice and very clean. The staff was also incredible, if we had any problems we contacted them and they resolved it in no time, so we were really happy about that. Everyone working here is simply lovely, from the two girls we met working at reception to the cleaning lady that talked to us on the hallway. We would highly recommend this stay.
