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 KingdomNo criticisms, just suggestions for improvement. We were late checking in due to issues with previous guests, and would have appreciated an earlier message to warn us as we ended up having to kill time at a café as too hot outside. An extra thinner pillow option would have been welcome. A few basics such as salt and oil in kitchen are always appreciated! There's no lift, so guests should be aware there might be up to three floors of stairs.
Location was perfect! So close to old town yet close to best car park which was very cheap - we paid less than 10 euros for a two night stay! Lots of shops and restaurants nearby, including a butchers and mini market/grocers just downstairs as well as two cafés and yet very quiet and felt very safe to come back to at night. The view from the top floor studio overlooks the outskirts, including the car park and we found it really interesting. We were there in very hot period and loved having our breakfast and evening meal looking out of the window.. we highly recommend pushing the table over by the window! Good spacious bathroom with good shower.

United KingdomVery loud festival outside with music until 3am, an unusual event I think but check your dates if you don't love that noise level!
Excellent location, and absolutely spotless.. Lovely powerful aircon (and it was extremely hot outside so we needed it!). Large carpark very close by for 6 euros/day. We had a slight mix up with beds which Samuel immediately went out of his way to help us with - an excellent host.

United KingdomThe apartment is immaculate. Equipped enough for all your basic needs. Although the 3 story climb to the top is tough, for us over 60 years, the balcony provides pleasant views of Penha church and the general surroundings.

United StatesOnly draw back there was no lift, but it's an old restored building. Nothing else, even this was not a real problem.
The location was wonderful, right around the corner from a very large square where holiday decorations were being installed. The room was clean and comfortable. We were able to prepare a couple meals in the apartment after doing some shopping at the local grocery. The room was also very quiet, and the shades were awesome for anyone light sensitive. The staff was there to greet me, and show me how to use everything. It was very welcoming.

PortugalSomeone with a screwdriver should check the hooks etc in the bathroom, as many are loose. Also the LED light above the bathroom sink kept flashing a lot. There's only 1 place for a wet towel to be hanged for drying. A second one would be welcome.
Breakfast was not included but the appartment has a kitchen and a large fridge. Due to the location just outside the historic centre, it was easy to get breakfast at one of the many pastelaria. There are two of these within 20m of the appartment.

United StatesNot much space to hang clothes but there were many empty cabinets in the kitchen area that worked well for storage.
Wonderfullyresponsive host. Samuel met us at the apartment, gave us the keys, showed us around and gave helpful advice about parking. Exceptionally clean apartment that was well furnished. Functional kitchen. Excellent location just outside the old city, so less noise, no tourists, but easy access to sites and good restaurants. Public parking ramp VERY convenient and inexpensive just a 2 minute walk down the street. Great coffee and pastries 3 doors down.
