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.).

Great host, and very knowledgeable about Tomar and its surroundings. My only comment was that the room felt at times cold even though a small heater was provided. Otherwise great location.

AustraliaCould be a bit hot in summer as the top floor rooms are directly under the roof.
The host was a wonderfully friendly man who couldn't do enough to help us. He is well versed in many topics but is a mine if information on Tomar and its importance in Portugese history. He even looked after our car for a few days while we went to Lisbon. The hostel is well appointed and there are interesting decorative touches throughout. Close to everything.

New ZealandEveryone in the hostel has to share one mini bar fridge. The large fridge in the kitchen is only for the owner. I personally don't think it is enough. The bathroom was tight. You also had to hold the shower head (there was no wall mount) which made hair washing annoying.
Great hostel, light room. The dining area is super nice a light and well put together.

ItalyOnly little thing, in our room the shower didn't have the support to hold it up, so washing long hair was a little challenging. But it's only a minor details, no complaints at all.
Very peculiar place, the host was very kind and the overall mood was very welcoming and relaxing. It is just out of downtown,which is great as there is a lot of parking. The host suggested what to see and where to eat, and even share some tips for our upcoming trip.

NetherlandsThe only thing that was a bit of a downfall was that the bedroom was very hot and there wasn't (as far as I could tell) an AC only a fan which did not provide a lot of cool air. But other than that I cannot think of a reason not to stay here.
This place was very good! We stayed here for two nights and it was great. The kitchen was very good and the residence was close to the city centre. Would definately recommend staying here when you're in Tomar. The host was very kind and even told us about the history of Tomar which was great!

United States- Soundproofing is not really good. That is okay if you are a heavy sleeper, but otherwise you may be easily woken up. - Unfortunately, breakfast was not available the day I stayed there, but apparently that was an unusual, one-off situation. Still, the property should have let us know in advance, even though the breakfast was charged separately (and so, naturally, I was not charged for it).
- Good value for money (about 50 euros/night, booked in very short notice) - Very centrally located in Tomar - Owner was flexible despite my late check-in

United StatesJust some issues with the room, which is very clean, but fairly small for two people to share, even couples. The shower has plenty of hot water but inconveniently has to be hand held. There’s barely place for toiletries and no place to hang towels. It’s kind of a spartan experience, which seems to befit the philosophically inclined owner, whose presence makes the slight inconveniences more acceptable.
Simple, inexpensive rooms very near the historical center of Tomar, a small but historically significant city. The kindly, and very knowledgeable owner of the hostel gave us a very interesting introduction to Tomar’s significance by way of a 15 minute explanation of places of importance to visit which made the stay worthwhile. There’s a nice common space and kitchen visitors are welcome to use.
