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 KingdomCheck in is chaotic. Advertises a reception but only in name only, reception desk is there but in full week we did not see any one on reception. Room access is not easy.... As the accommodation advertises a reception I simply printed out the payment details and confirmation booking page from this site. BUT you will need access codes to access the accommodation from the street and another to access your room. I did not make a note of these as missed the email. Thus on arrival trying to obtain access details from the Spanish cleaner that spoke no English led to problems. Also 2 other bookings had the same problem and led to us being woken up at 2am ish with guest having to bang on the front door to gain access. Due to no staff on site any idiot guests who are partying at 4am have no one to 'keep the peace' Only happened once but not great.... but to note most guests are couples and not so disrespectful to cause such problems. Air conditioning was a problem as could not get to work... we booked for April thus no big deal but in the hight of summer, no air con would be a problem. Room Safe would not work... did email the management on the first day but got no reply in the 7 days of being there. Bit awkward if you are carrying cash , as we did, for the full use of the holiday.
Location... side of Sir Henry's if you are unsure as not clear on advertt. Roof top pool... very nice. Only small but for size of property it was fine. Price of stay... was very good value.

United KingdomThere was a green security light in the bedroom that we couldn't seem to turn off. We could hear the noise from the square with the windows open but you could cancel that out by closing them and using the Aircon.
The facilities were great - a lovely peaceful terrace with a pool and sun beds, where you could have breakfast. Good shower, kettle in the room. Very close to a busy square so a convenient location. We parked about 5 mins walk away and went down some steps. Check in was easy using key codes. Overall a brilliant stay.

FinlandNot sure if you could leave your luggage after check-out as the codes to get in stop working.
Perfect location next to the old town square but behind a building to keep the worst noise away. There are stairs to climb and no lift. No TV which was surprising. There is no reception, check-in/-out are automatic, so also no one to ask for advice or help. The breakfast hostesses were truly friendly and helpful and the breakfast is very good with toast, pastries, cereals, youghurt, omelette and great coffee.

United KingdomThe accommodation is not very sound proof & you can hear neighbours in the upstairs rooms. Location is good but music from nearby bars can be heard at night, although generally stopped by 12. The breakfast area by the pool is lovely but doesn't catch the sun first thing making it quite cool, so would recommend a covering, although staff did put on the heater & provide a blanket when this was mentioned. Beds were a little 'lumpy' & could benefit from a new mattress.
Clean, but could benefit from a fresh coat of paint. Decor was bright & had a nice "feel good factor". Staff were lovely & helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Pool area was lovely. Excellent shower. Enjoyed my stay on the whole.

IrelandUnfortunately, we couldn't use the bathroom as there was a power cut in the morning. The breakfast was nice but it was served on the rooftop and it was quite cold in January. It must be a great place to stay during summer months.
Great location in the heart of Albufeira. Lovely pool on the rooftop, although we couldn't use it because the water was too cold.

CanadaThere is nothing bad about this place. I gave the staff a lower rating because we did not deal with anyone. We got a detailed e-mail that helped it self check-in, so it was not necessary to deal with staff.
The room was comfortable, and it just had a good feel to it. It was super clean. The rain shower was great. Self-check in was easy. We have stayed here before, and the place is well-maintained.

IrelandOn my first morning at 7.30am, I texted the management about a warning sound going off on the alarm control panel (plus the emergency exit light suddenly lit up in my room). Someone came and switched it off at 7.45 but I could not sleep after that. I never got a response from the management, which I thought was very unresponsive. The lady who makes the breakfast is lovely, but only one egg per person is allowed for breakfast! The noise from the square might be a problem for some people - I was there in Jan/Feb and the music stopped at 11.30pm so it was OK. But really, the stay was lovely overall, and these are small issues in the scheme of things.
Brilliant location in the heart of the Old Town. Spotlessly clean. Nice room (room 4), though the reception and the stairs to the upper apartments is right outside the door, so it could be a little noisy for light sleepers. The pool area is fabulous, lovely to have breakfast in, and I'm sure it would be delightful in hot weather.
