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.).

South AfricaThe wind!
I loved the quaintness of the place. It reminded my son of Bag End in Lord of the Rings. It was very conveniently located within walking distance of the sea in a quiet neighbourhood. . Each unit had lovely outdoor areas where one could tuck in with a good book on rainy or windy day. Roy was the perfect host.

The place is beautiful and cosy with your own small garden with hammock and braai stand in the beautiful bigger garden. Roy is an excellent host, who tries to help you with everything. Even when we forgot something he sent it to one of our next stays, so kind of him. We would absolutely go back or recommend to stay here.

This place is so calming. It's perfect for our needs. Extremely safe area close by to shops and restaurants. Kitchen well-stocked with any dishes/utensils you'd need (and coffee etc.). Back porch is serene: hammock, couch, outdoor breakfast table, lots of vegetation, birds chirping. However, the highlight was Roy, the owner - had a great time chatting with him over our few days there. He even drove us to the airport on our last day - a very nice man.

PortugalI can't point anything out because it was all wonderful.
Exceptional accommodation (if I could I would give a score of 20). Located about 300 meters from the beach, every night I fell asleep listening to the sea. I had the apartment all to myself, comfort, space, decoration, conditions, everything corresponds to the photos, and exceeded my expectations. The owner, Roy, an exceptional person, offered to go with me to the supermarket by car and on the last day he took me to the airport. The garden is wonderful, the bed very, very comfortable, warm blankets (it was winter), cable tv where I could watch the Portuguese channels, emergency lights for the frequent power outages, the huge bathroom, the shower water with a lot of pressure, equipped kitchen, One of the best private accommodations where I stayed until today. I recommend it 10000%. The area was very safe, you could walk on foot, close to the sea and the waterfront.

One should not forget the most cooperative host I have ever met ROY!! He will do anything & everything to make your stay comfortable, you ask him about weather, news, sports and he will bombard you with information. Thanks Roy.. will definitely come back whenever I am in PE.
