How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Our 3rd visit here and this time we had a different apartment which was adjacent to another, so we noticed neighbours noises. Disappointed that we couldn't have exactly the same apartment as before but understand why.
Location, very clean, good value for money.

We chose this hotel because of its locations and the location was perfect as it was not too far from the motorway. Also it was super clean. Ok for one night, rooms are quite outdated but you can see it in the pictures.

The timed lighting in the underground garage turns its self off very quickly and leaves you blundering around in the dark, torch/ head torch required, but this is just a minor grump.
we have used these apartments over a period of several years on trips to and from UK, they are very clean, very self contained, good secure parking and in the center of a small village,they are very good and feel like a home from home brilliant patio areas for the dogs and good walking areas close by. nearby shops, kebab shop and bars all within 2 mins walk. loverly town and the local people are great. recommend to anyone. If we were not time constrained by travel/ ferries, we would love to spend a longer time in the apartments/ village than we actually do.

Nothing everything was perfect.
Gorgeous modern appartment with it's own patio, perfect as we had a small dog with us. Parking available. The village is very pretty and has everything you need. Also very friendly and quite lively on the Friday evening. Good spot to visit Madrid and surrounding areas. We used it as a stopover on the way to Granada.

There is nothing else that springs to mind , has hair dryer which is a bonus for me .We wouuld really love to stay longer ,but always rushing to catch ferries , hopefully one day soon .
We have stayed here many times before as its ideal for the northern Spain ferry terminals , it is an apartment which is perfect if you have a dog , has an outside safe walled terrace with table and chairs .The town has several resturants and has a small supermarket just across the road and a bank and further supermarket and bars very near .The apartment has every thing needed for a short stay or longer , washing machine , dish washer , micro wave , well equipped with kitchen uteniles , most things needed to make the stay comfortable , and wifi too .
