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.).

United KingdomThe room was very good but the view across the valley was spoilt by a large tree right outside.
Excellent breakfast made with produce grown on the farm. Antonio and his son Daniel were great and helpful hosts.

AustriaA nice house in the hills, not far from Lagos and the west coast. A quiet place to relax. Nature pure. Antonio and his son Daniel are really friendly and always very helpful. Very nice room with a really comfortable kingsize bed. The breakfast was more than perfect. Different good restaurants for dinner not more than 15 min. by car.

United StatesA bit of a challenge to find and you have to drive along winding roads up and down the mountain but you get used to it.
The guest house has 6 rooms which are excellently and ecologically designed with modern amenities. Set amidst an organic farm with fruit trees, chickens and 2 donkeys, it was quiet and peaceful yet in close proximity to the beaches and commercial areas of Algarve.

GermanyMe and my boyfriend absolutely enjoyed our stay in this beautiful Appartement surrounded by the calm nature. Also Antonio and Daniel were so welcoming and nice! The breakfast was a blast, we could enjoy freshly homemade yogurt and fruits from the garden and much more local treats. We also made a hike in Monchique and enjoyed the mountains and Caldas de Monchique. All in all it was a blast!

Cozy agro/eco Quinta; very quiet, clean, comfortable, surrounded by orchards, donkeys, chickens with a magnificent view towards Portimão and Lagos. An escape from the busy tourist towns in the Algarve yet only a 30-40 min drive away. Perfect place to hike, bike and just relax on your private patio or in the spacious living areas. Our host Antonio is delightful and made us feel right at home. (See photo with one of his solar ovens). He served fruits from the garden, homemade yoghurt, jams, savory sauces and has a big pizza oven on the property. We will definitely return!

Hosts Antonio and Daniel were very friendly and welcoming. Pizza night was a bonus got to meet lots of lovely people. Breakfast was very good, with fresh fruit, freshey cooked eggs and homemade cakes. We had a very comfortable bed and the room was nice and dark so great for a good night's sleep. The location was peaceful with amazing views. The building itself was very tasteful and finished beautifully.

I really loved this place in the beautiful area of Monchique, with an amazing view over the lush mountains until the ocean. The perfect spot to step out of your daily routine and enjoy nature and peace. I travelled alone and it was perfect, I met the very friendly hosts Antonio, Claudia and Daniel. I especially fell in love with their two donkeys, which are beautiful creatures. Thanks again for making my stay so comfortable - we will definitely come back :)

SpainWe liked everything there! Starting with a friendly host meeting us outside of the property, to modern and comfortable rooms with amazing views. The location is perfect- moderate driving distance to the beaches, but tranquil and relxing for those looking to escape from city. The host Antonio was super nice and welcoming- he showed us around his property, let us taste his apples and berries straight from the trees and even let our 2 year old son feed the donkeys and play with chickens!!

Hong KongWe have to park on a gravel parking space a bit far from the front door on our second night as all the parking lots are taken. That makes check out the next day slightly more difficult as we have quite a lot of big luggages.
Great stay, Antonio is a friendly host. The B&B is designed by the host's wife who is an architect, with views over the sea. Most impressive is that the entire property is step-free, good for wheelchair and big luggages. That is helpful for us as we brought bikes to cycle to Foia. Highlight of the breakfast is homemade jams, sweet melon and fresh fig Antonio just picked.
