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.).

CanadaAn amazing location, beautiful grounds, the pods are private and clean and comfortable, the owner is no nice and helpful, he also responds really quickly to any questions, very warm and welcoming atmosphere, there is a gym and a sauna, laundry on site, a pool, so much to see and do, it’s close to the city but very quiet with beautiful gardens. The private pods are like having your own small apartment, they put a bed in the living room for my daughter (very thoughtful and appreciated), the kitchen is fully stocked with small appliances and dishes, it would be very easy to prepare meals, the bathroom is large and the master bedroom has a very big comfy bed. We are very impressed and can’t wait to come back!

Finland10s across the board. The property is located in beautiful Lagoa, just a 15 min drive from the center of Ponta Delgada. The facilities were spotless and furnished beyond what might be needed, including a SPA room, a sauna, a gym, up-for-grabs mountain bicycles and more. Everything about the location, the property and the stay itself could not have been better. Thank you so much 😊

United StatesWe liked everything
Lovely family hotel. Fantastic restaurant - try the desserts! Very nice staff. Family establishment. We felt right at home. The bungalows we're clean and comfortable. The daily cleaning service was much appreciated. Although breakfast is not available on site, there are great places for breakfast such as Charlenas a close walk away. There are events going on a couple of times per week, and very occasionally the parking lot was full, but there was zero noise. It is a very quiet, peaceful place. Laundry facilities were easy to access/use.

Top comfort, very modern, safe parking inside the compound, supermarket within 5 min WALKING distance, friendly hosts, air conditioning in both living room and bedroom, big TV with lots of channels. It even had a laundry machine in the compound. Swimming pool. QUIET. Close to the capital.

NetherlandsLagoa isn't a great place, but if you have a car it is very easy to get around the island and make (dinner) trips to Ponta Delgada. The provided parking spaces are spacious and secure.

Czech RepublicIt's in the nice garden - which unfortunatelly brings very wet conditions (inside and outside as well). No problem for us, just take in mind. The dishwasher in our apartment was not working and they did nothing during the week we were there. Furtunatelly the cleaning lady cleaned the kitchen every day, so it was not a big deal.
Cozy private area of small houses. Each apartment is its own house. The apartment is quite big, with veeery comfortable large bed, working space in the bedroom, big living room and big bathroom as well. Nice private terrase in front of each house. Absolutely quite in the night = the best sleeping we had in Azores. Swimming pool, jacuzi, sauna and steam which you can use whenever you want. Free bikes for discovering the area around (don't expect super sporty equipement, but okay for riding around :-)) Cleaning every day. Very good location if you would like to travel around the island by car - it's 1 min from the motorway and just in the middle of the island. You can't find better location than Lagoa. If you don't want to use car, you have to walk - 15 min to Lagoa (where are just some local bars); or 10 min to bus and 20 mins ride to Ponta Delgada.

PortugalDue to high humidity, the only thing I missed was any kind of a tumbler dryer for the wet clothes, but I've never seen this facility at any hotel. I believe that COVID-19 restrictions probably do not allow this option.
The hotel is very well situated, with a tranquil environment and has a nice garden. Parking inside or outside the property, always available. The house was quite spacious, we were 4 and felt really well inside! excellent beds and a good kitchen, which had all equipment one could ever need. A reach delicious breakfast liked all the family. The restaurant is excellent, serves a vast list of traditional Portuguese and international cuisine. We were glad to meet the owners, who are wonderful and highly professional people! We really had a perfectly relaxing holiday and will stay there next time.

SloveniaWe almost always forgot to hang up the CLEAN THE ROOM sign and therefore the cleaning ladies didn't clean our room and make the beds. This was our fault.
-We were able to borrow bikes for the whole family. -There is a large supermarket in walking distance. -They have a friendly dog Princeza. -There is a good restaurant a just few meter away which is actually a part of the whole property. So its easy to "go out" to dinner. The small kitchen has a small dishwasher which is a big plus.

United StatesThe parking is shared with the restaurant in the same compound and some nights it was difficult finding parking as a result. At check-in, we had to go to the restaurant and wait for the host to meet us because the reception area was closed even though it was during the regular check-in hours. The room was nice enough and spacious but the kitchen was lacking in quality of equipment (e.g., pans were very scratched) and didn't have some of the basics (e.g. oil, salt, coffee, tea) that most accommodations with kitchens typically have as conveniences. Many of the spa facilities were not usable during our stay (the steam room and jacuzzi were not working and the pool was not clean). Overall the stay wasn't bad but it was pretty disappointing relative to what we were expecting when we booked it.
The room was mostly clean and pretty spacious. It did have a fridge, stove, microwave, and oven in addition to a couple of other smaller appliances for cooking in the kitchen.
