Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomWebsite says breakfast offered at the property- no breakfast offered at this time of the year. Central heating was off (except for Saturday night). My room was heated with an electric heater, so while it was warm, the air was so dry it hurt to breathe. Few showers at the property. I can imagine long waits if all rooms with shared bathroom are occupied in season. Sink in my room and those by all shared WC had cold tap only.
Very clean, surprisingly comfortable bed for a cheap accommodation, good price and good location. Good place for a night or two to travel on budget but perhaps not in winter.

United KingdomBed clothes a bit just (not bedspread). And I may have not read properly when booking (maybe confused by the fact that there is still a photo of the dinning room which turns out it has been closed for years), but there was no breakfast available, which wasn't very practical when you want to catch early carrilet to Nuria valley. The place is not for people with mobility issues, as the old building has no lift and to enter the small bathtub with sliding screen may be tricky.
Good location (to reach easily town centre, carrilet and train stations,...); the mountain view from the balcony and basically the bed was comfortable enough. To my request, the owner provided kindly an extra pillow.

BoliviaThe staff attitude (very distant and closed to any question), the place decoration, spaces and lighting made it look kinda creepy, a bit like a horror movie. The place was closed untill the very minute of the check-in (4pm), so we had to wait outside on the cold weather until then.
Very warm room with nice bed. It was very cheap and well-located.

SpainThere was no hook to put your jacket and the light bulbs have this cold hospital light, what is not cosy at all. There is no service during the night and after checking out you cannot leave the luggage.
I liked the simple "vintage" furniture, the great heating and the cotton sheets

United States of AmericaNothing. Owner was friendly and attentive, an excellent choice for my needs.
This is not a hotel, so do not expect such. These are traditional old rooms, some with private bathroom, some shared, and the traditional terrace all Europeans enjoyed when visting their aunt or grandmother. For a long stay in Ribes, living as a local, Fonda Vilalta is perfect, quaint, even nostalgic. The rooftop terrace is a hidden paradise.

SpainI think that 50€/night is too much for what you get. We had just a very small room with no bathroom and a window with closed blinds. There was a toilet and shower in the hallway that felt quite exposed. Also there was no breakfast included and we didn’t feel that the building was very secure. So I think 30€/night would be a much more reasonable price.
The bed was comfortable and the location is good.

SpainCleanless: I have found spiderwebs. Noise: is possible to listen all that is happening in the surrounding rooms. Very basic facility, but is justified by cheap price.
Cheap price: was the cheapest solution found in the area of Val di Nuria, that was possible to be reached by public transportation. There were other solutions in same village of Ribes de Freser but were much more expensive and it was necessary the car to be reached. Ok for a 2 nights stay. Location: is in the middle of the village, near shops and restaurants and less than 10 minutes walking to the train station that connects with Barcelona and rack railway station, that connect with Val di Nuria, a beautiful mountain resort that is possible to be reached only by this public transportation starting from Ribes de Freser and have only 1 stop in the mediavial village of Queralbs.

SpainThe room was decorated with christian/religion stuff. The bed was OK but not too comfy. The front desk person leaves around 9pm. We asked for a knife to prepare some sandwiches and were told it wasn't possible and that we needed to go to a bar or restaurant to do that (what?!). People would arrive after midnight and make noise all the way up the stairs with their suitcase (3rd floor). Other rooms would also make noise and weird hours like 2, 3am. We could even hear the flushing and reloading of the tank on the shared bathrooms of each floor. We must have had very bad luck but we barely slept here.
the location was very good - next to the city centre, most basic shops and some bars within walking distance.
