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...).

Very charming house with specious bedroom overlooking a beautiful countryside. Very friendly welcome from the owner, who recommend a couple of good restaurants for the night. The property is located in the old part of the town with a walking distance from the car park. Good breakfast served from 9am. The location is very quiet so you wont get any traffic noise. The house has many different "corners" where you can take a seat and rest with a book or simply enjoy the cozy atmosphere of this lovely property. Also it was a very good value for the money.

United States of AmericaThe only real change I would ask for is to have the information about not being able to bring/have a car at the site. It was quite difficult to move baggage, and our tired selves at the end of the day, up the long hill. I understand this is part of the deal with medieval towns, but as I do not live in one, I did not have the imagination to guess that we could not have a car there, or park it nearby, and that was quite difficult. We did hear about this, but only earlier that same day we arrived. I am glad we stayed there, and probably would not have booked if we had known, but I have a significant injury to one of my legs and though there 'are taxis', there really were not taxis when we needed/wanted one, nor did we get a response by calling the taxi dispatch. So that was a fairly large issue for us, but otherwise very nice.
Owners were lovely and helpful. Place lovely if small [undersatandable]. Breakfast very nice with terrific setting and view.

United KingdomI don't think we have ever stayed in accommodation as beautiful as La Casa de Bovedas, with such an incredible view. The bedroom was enormous and decorated with lovely and fascinating objects and pictures, obviously chosen with care. The entire house is picturesque and comfy, with patios and lounges which can be used by the guests, and even a terrace with a small pool, all overlooking the valley beneath Arcos de la Frontera. Cecilia and her daughter Anna were very friendly, and found out bus times for us and gave us lots of other bits of information. The house is right in the centre of the old part of town, handy for all the main sights. And make sure you visit the nearby Mayorazgo Palace, with its arcaded courtyards, the exhibitions of contemporary paintings (produced by the local artists' cooperative), and the very moving displays which cover the village's tragic past during the Spanish Civil War (all in Spanish, but Google will instantly translate any photos you take with your phone). We loved Arcos, and we loved La Casa de Bovedas, and we hope next time to spend longer there. Oh, and the breakfast was excellent!
