Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United StatesVery far from the Camino way. However, the hotel staff were willing to give us a free ride the next day.
The staff were wonderful. The area was a lot of fun and accessible to busses. The room was clean.

United StatesIt wasn't really near anything but I doubt you'd be staying there if you didn't have a car.
It's very clean and bed was comfy,. It suited my budget and as a point at which I wanted to stop driving. I was told there were restaurants nearby but I couldn't find any open--it was a Sunday -- heading towards Aquacadouro; so I headed back to Apulia and found a chingurito and other places on the beach. The area is a delta with a lot of agricultural concerns. To me I think of Motel 6 vibe. Clean. No frills. Visit Barcelos if you're in the area.

United KingdomThe hotel was great, but a little far from the Camino Coastal path.
This family run hotel was great and we were made very welcome. Having walked from the Camino coastal path the owner gave us a lift to and from a local restaurant for our dinner, which was lovely. The rooms were ideal for what we wanted. Breakfast was fine, and we were given another ride back to the Camino path. We could not have asked for a better place or the service provided.

United StatesThe location was a bit tricky as a Camino pilgrim but that is so minor. I can’t really find anything wrong about this place.
The staff was UNBELIEVABLE! They were so friendly and helpful. I felt very welcomed as a solo traveler. They even helped me by placing my pizza delivery order and escorted the delivery person to my room, for safety and security.

SpainThe kindness of the staff was exceptional. We were there on a Sunday and with no restaurants open in the evening nearby the owner took us to an excellent restaurant in the evening, then picked us up later. As we were on the Camino, and the path was about 2km away, they also took us to our following day's starting point. Incredible !

The proprietors and staff were so kind and welcoming. The room was comfortable and sparkling clean. I was offered a sandwich and coffee in the evening, which I gratefully accepted, as I was very tired after a long day on the Camino. Sitting on the front porch with these refreshments was so peaceful and relaxing. In the morning, the buffet was very filling and varied. This hotel is not only a great bargain, but one I consider exceptional! There was no problem leaving my luggage in the morning for the transport company. The day of my arrival, I walked 7 miles on the litoral by the ocean from Vila do Conde and then veered off through dirt roads and farming community to reach Route 13, requiring a 15 min walk on a busy 2 lane roadway, but this posed no problem. I'm a senior solo female traveler. Do yourself the favor and give Hotel Contriz a try! They take great pride in what they do, and it shows!
