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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Although the hotel is a block back from the beach, we could see the sea from our window, which was a pleasant surprise. We could get to the beach in less than a minute and could hear the sea through the open window. The room was very pleasant, spotlessly clean, very basic but tastefully decorated, and the bed was very comfortable. We had a bit of a problem with the shower but the staff were super helpful and the problem was fixed in no time. All in all, for the budget price this is a great little hotel and we would definitely use it again.

Outside of the building is a bit ropey, but don’t be put off by that, for the money great little hotel. No staff present, key lock to get in which was fine for us but maybe not for everyone.
Lovely room, very clean and comfortable. Great location in a very nice little town.

As we liked Carboneras so much we wanted a second night as the initial hotel could not accommodate we looked at alternatives. By far the best value with ease of parking nearby and the beach a minute away we selected Be Free. The ladies that run the place are exceptional in terms of hospitality and help. ( We went to check our booking and requested an earlier check-in than the stated 1400hrs we were WhatsApp'ed at 1230hrs with room ready. ) Lovely room second floor (203) super size bed, small balcony (enough for great views & towel drying) and absolutely spotless. While this residence is advertised as a one star hostel, it is by far one of the nicest places we have stayed in Spain. With bars , restaurants and shops all within a minute to a couple of minutes walk and the beach literally a stone throw away - what more do you want?! Would definitely stay here again.

Beautifully styled room, excellent value, and we received a free upgrade to a room with a sea view! The location is just a stones throw from the beach and promenade. The bed, shower, and AC were all excellent. Carboneras is a small but charming town close to the best beaches in Cabo de Gata and has everything you need for a comfortable stay including a grocery store, restaurants, and bars. Our interaction with the hosts was limited but positive. We did not try the breakfast as we preferred to eat out, but the host was kind enough to offer a complementary breakfast to us on our final day.

A very pleasent host who guided us to the local tapas bars using a map on which he outlined 4 or 5 tapes bars. We tried 2 and they were excellent. Located only a couple of streets back from the seafront with a small balcony overlooking the street but you can see the sea. We opted for breakfast here which was traditional Spanish fare of toast, tomato, cheese ect. However we were offered as much as we wanted which was great as we were on a cycling trip. Would definitely stay here again if passing through. Carboneras is a lovely town in a nice part of Spain
