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...).

This hostel is beautiful. The owner explained that it was originally his grandparents house and that it was totally refurbished as a hostel. It was done in excellent taste. Very modern and spotlessly clean. Bright, spacious and comfortable kitchen and seating area offers a lovely space to meet fellow travellers. Staff were most pleasant and helpful. Great location. Would highly recommend.

NetherlandsNot that it bothered me, but there is no TV or fridge in the room, but there is in the common room and the kitchen.
Very modern, super spacious rooms, with neutral and minimalistic decoration. Overall, a well renovated building, right in the city centre of Ponta Delgada. The terrace on the 5th floor offers great views over the city. The location is excellent, and there's free parking right nearby, and if full, the alternative is a couple hundred meters away. Breakfast was nice with some regional produce.

PortugalBest hostel I've ever been to. João and André were truly exceptional, always making sure I had everything I needed. The place is perfectly located, right in the center of Ponta Delgada. The rooftop balcony is amazing, and the common areas are great, with attention to every detail. The room was really tidy and in excellent condition. Even the breakfast was really good. Amazing value for money. I cannot recommend this hostel enough.

Polandelectric kettle was missing in the kitchen or rooms. It would be great to be able to drink some tea in late afternoon. In the room you could also add some small wooden shelf where you can open travel bags. Now it has to be done either on the floor or on the bed. It would be a shame to damage them.
We were able to check in early and also after check out the host allowed us to store our bags and use the common areas. A good breakfast was served. The room we had was spacious with a nice balcony and good-sized bathroom with shower and clean towels. The bed is super comfy with nice sheets. Air-conditioning works well. Even though the building is located in the city centre right in front of the main street the widows are sound proof and we had a good nice sleep.

Special place. Very cosy, new, clean, modern. Nice terrace on the top with the view over the city, you can use provided mattresses and chill there for a while. Hosts are extremely nice. You have a possibility to rent a bicycle, the hosts just pick it up for you from the nearby rental company. I needed a bicycle for the Sunday when all the companies are closed, but Joao just picked it up for me on Saturday and the bicycle waited for me in the hostel building from Sunday morning, and after I finished a delicious breakfast I could just go for a ride! Joao and Andre, thank you once again for your kindness, you've been really nice hosts!

United States of AmericaOur stay at Sky PDL exceeded our expectations. We stayed in the private loft room which had a gorgeous view of the city and was next door to the terrace that had an extraordinary view of the ocean. Andre was incredibly helpful, attentive, and knowledgeable about the history of the Azores and local activities that catered to our interests. The included breakfast was also extensive for a hostel and was very convenient and appreciated. My partner and I have traveled extensively and stayed in various types of hostels but the facility and the staff at Sky PDL were the best by far. We highly recommend this hostel to any friends, family, or fellow travelers!

CanadaThis has nothing to do with the hostel, just for anyone renting a car, be aware there is limited free parking in the area, & it can be challenging to find a spot.

FranceEverything was great, but maybe more hanging space for towels in the rooms. And a way to organise the fridge when it will be the full season :)
The whole building is beautiful. The open kitchen is great, makes you want to spend time there. Lots of area outside but I was very windy when I was there. In the summer time I would have like to eat outside and just enjoy the view on the balcony. The high ceilings, the elevator, there is even a dishwasher in the kitchen ! Joao and Andre were present and available to answer our questions, our needs and give advices on what to visit in the area. They even packed a « to-go » breakfast for me as I had and early flight 🙏

The room was bright and clean, the bathroom was fabulous, and both were super spacious! The location is perfect, right in the centre of town. Loved the upstairs terrace perfect for a pre-dinner drink, and the patio for breakfast outside. The fact that this was the owner's grandmother's house, that he has refurbished impecably well just adds to the charm of it. Owner and staff are really friendly and helpful. We had a 4am wake up for an early flight and they left us out some breakfast to take with us. All on all, a superior experience and amazing valie for money! Highly recommend it!
