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 KingdomSwimming pool is in very poor state. Tiles and pieces of concrete in bottom of pool. Tiles missing from everywhere in pool. Steps have been removed from the deep end. Also pool is only accessible by stairs making it difficult for people with walking difficulties. Only one set of keys which are needed to enter the complex so you must go out together. Late check in charge of 30 euros after 10 p.m. Shower not great.
Good size room. Clean and well equipped. Good location easy access to beach and Marina.

PortugalThe pool is not in the finest state. It is old and broken. The poolside also is not particularly appealing. It is a shame because the pool are could actually look pretty cool.
The location is outstanding. Very close to the town center, the marina, and the beach. Everything you might need is at a walking distance. The apartament is huge. You could comfortably sleep a family of four here. The kitchen is fully equipped and the AC works well. You get a pretty decent balcony to chill in. Staff is nice, welcoming, and quick to respond.

IrelandThere was no safe. No free wifi in the apartment, WIFI available only in the reception across the road, another building with limited hours. We were told at check in, that the pool was not available, one of the reasons for picking this property was because of the pool.
The Location was very good, near the beach and lots of nice restaurants.

NetherlandsThere's no internet in the apartment. Finding how to pick up the keys was complicated (although the hosts helped a lot with phone calls), and the reception times were awkward (i.e. difficult to check out before 0900).
Very well equipped apartment. And a nice price. Pool was very quiet.

United KingdomI’m afraid this property needs some TLC. While it was clean it was very tired and things were broken. For example the balcony doors in the bedroom did not lock so the room was not secure, the outside of the fridge had been painted with a strange white paint and really badly to cover the yellowing trim. the sofa bed looked very old - I’m glad we didn’t have to use it. The handset to the fan unit in the bedroom had gone missing so we couldn’t use it so had to have a plug in fan provided instead. The other problem we had is that booking.com did not tell the agents who rent the accommodation that we had booked an apartment with single beds. So we had to have quite an uncomfortable conversation to get this sorted. At first they said we would have to pay more for a T2 apartment! The ladies at the offices were very helpful.
the location of the property is really good - very close to the beach. There are some restaurants and bars close by with the marina a 5 min walk. this helps to make it a quieter location.

IrelandThe property is very dated and therefore doesn't look very clean. The lift was unreliable, We booked an apartment with air conditioning but were given one without it. When we followed this up, we were told the property was fully booked. The fob for the front door didn't work very well. We were stuck outside and rang the emergency number. They seemed unconcerned about our situation and told us to gently press the fob against the pad. This went on for quiet some time and eventually we were told to walk down an alley and use the rear entrance. No one tried to help us or replace our fob or fix the problem.
As we arrived after midnight, we were to contact the host when we landed which we did. However we ill waited about 20 minutes outside the property for someone to arrive with our keys.

IrelandVery run down, old fashioned apartment, extremely uncomfortable. Very poor shower. Place was not clean. Had to get rid of our own rubbish, apartment was never cleaned during our stay as we weren’t there for a week. Had to beg for another set of clean towels as again our stay was less than a week. Fob for front door doesn’t always work. Hallways not lit up so dangerous at night time. Opening hours of office not convenient and had to pay late check in fee. Once we arrived the man there to check us in had basically no English so very hard to communicate and he didn’t even show us down to the apartment or help with luggage and I was travelling with my pregnant sister.
Location was the only good thing about the property
