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.).

IndiaI have no issues with the property but the area where it was located catered more towards the retirement community. So if you’re looking for very quiet and walking distance from the beach then this is for you. However if you’re looking for a bit more buzz and a younger crowd then you may want to consider other towns along the Algarve.
I booked the private double room. Which was on the ground level but was spacious with its own attached washroom. The staff was lovely too but the location was ok.

United KingdomThe staff couldn’t have been more helpful. We arrived late due to delayed flight and the receptionist stayed until we got there. The kitchen was well stocked with food and drinks which you could help yourself to. The room was clean and tidy and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was lovely, everything we needed was available. Would highly recommend, very enjoyable stay.

PortugalI was unlucky with the people I shared my room. They snored loudly and slammed the door when coming into the room past midnight. It was not the hostel's fault but it did sour my experience.
Everything was perfect. The location was super clean and very accommodating

United KingdomI have tried to think of something negative but honestly can't.
Located just a few streets away from the beach at Armacao de Pera and a short walk from local shops, pharmacy, bars, restaurants. We had a room with 4 beds and a private bathroom, which was perfect for our family. Air conditioning included. The staff were very welcoming and friendly both at the time of our arrival and departure. They helped us to book our UBER. This was the cheapest and most convenient way to travel. The pool was a welcome sight at the end of a hot day and for a quick dip before breakfast. The breakfast provided was basic, but plentiful. Breads, ham, cheese, fruit, juices, hot drinks were all unlimited. Thank you. We will definitely be back.

BrazilDuring the night, the AC wasn't enough to keep the room fresh, we all woke up sweating and some of us couldn't even get to sleep. Maybe another AC or a bigger one should be installed at the dormitory. I missed some fresh fruits at the breakfast.
The location, easy access to the beach or bus stop or the main supermarkets. The pool with relaxing chairs around.

LOVED the staff, super helpful and friendly. Bathrooms in the room was great! Only stayed one night but I wouldve stayed for longer if I wasnt going to next destination. The walk to the beach was a little longer than expected but still OK. I like walking so wasnt really an issue for me :) Big continental and Lidl shop close. Breakfast was pleasant, coffee not the best though (coffee nerd)
