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.).

United KingdomOld building in need of a little TLC. There were some homeless people sleeping close by but it is a big city so can be expected.
Fantastic location. Although an old building in an area close to the gardens in the square, I felt safe, including late at night. There are lovely bars & restaurants nearby and it is very close to trindade Metro.

United KingdomA small leak in the bathroom sink, not a big deal, still usable. Studio on top floor with no lift, which was fine for me but may not be suitable for other visitors.
The studio was very comfortable, clean and had good facilities. Kitchen, seating area and TV added bonus. Good location, a short walk from the main sights. Very good price. I arrived early and was able to check in which was great.

United StatesI wasn’t sure if we were getting complaints from neighbors or if the staff were coming to us themselves, but we were asked to be quiet at 9:55pm, then again later when we had quieted down. I just thought it was weird they would ask us to be quiet so early in the evening in a hostel where young people (college students) tend to stay when they are traveling. We could really feel the springs in our beds.
Breakfast was a perfect European snack and coffee. Everything was very clean and well-kept. High ceilings, lots of light, the perfect hostel! Towels were free, breakfast was free, etc.

PolandI didn't like the fact that the cleanliness of the kitchenette was not the best and definitely hated the lack of noise isolation of the studio (towards the outside street). They should definitely improve this last point, as it strongly worsens sleep quality.
I liked a lot the location (very central), the mattress quality and the restroom facilities (properly renovated). The staff was also quite nice.

GermanyThe room had just 1 mirror in the bathroom and we were a group of girls. So, getting ready took longer as we had to wait around for our turn. A full length mirror in the outside of the bedroom would have been nice.
The staff were extremely friendly, accommodating and helpful. They even gave us complementary breakfast. Totally worth for your money. It wasn't loud or too crowded. We were very happy with our find.

The location is very central and the studio was well equipped: Wi-Fi- kettle - mini fridge - kitchen stuff.
