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...).

IrelandLovely location, with a Seaview room, had everything we required, large Bedroom and living room with a big balcony Kitchen and big Bathroom with excellent WIFI. We arrived in the middle of a storm with floods at Faro airport and the roads were flooded, so it was wonderful to arrive to the Complex to be greeted with heat inside as we were soaked through and so were our bags. Our Room was also lovely and warm which was an added bonus, as we could get our clothes dry. Apologies for not getting the ladies name on reception who was very welcoming and was always smiling through out our stay, nothing was an issue for this lady. 2 minute walk to the Beach. Lovely restaurant along beach front, where you can walk to the Old Town.

LatviaOne of the towels had a stain on it as well as there were hairs in the toilet. There was a lack of kitchen equipment (cutting board, oil, salt/pepper, dishwashing soap and sponge). You can use pool from 9am to 6pm, it would be nice if pool worked in the evening hours aswell.
The staff was very nice, location was good, room was bigger than expected.

United KingdomWe have stayed at these apartments several times before, this was the first time back for 4 years . Apartments are looking very tired now, badly need a refit of kitchens and bathrooms. The bar and restaurant have now shut down, nowhere to get a drink or lunch if you want a day by the pool
Apartment was clean and comfortable, in a great position, central for beach and old town

LuxembourgService is ok, but could be more pro-active. Pool is not accessible after 6 PM, a bit of a shame, who does not like late night swim :-). Wifi is poor, internet is slow, nowadays it is something that counts a lot if you plan to remote work and the 200+ €/day is much too high for the quality of the old habitation even if it is big ! Could have more equipment in the kitchen (new toaster, capsule coffee machine…) and provide washing product in the apartment and some water.
Beautiful location. Spacious apartment. That’s what you pay for : a stroll to Albufeira by the beach, long beach, small beach, you name it : you are in front of the ocean in a small neighbourhood of Albufeira, pretty quiet which was not expected. We were able to check in earlier, so that’s a plus.

IrelandThe pool was little smaller than I expected based on the image. However it was still great and had lots of fun and chill time at the pool. There was also a lack of restaurant or spa. Which I think would be a great addition. But there is easy access to lots of food places and shops around the hotel.
The main receptionist was a very kind lady and all the staff had good energy. One of the cleaning ladies also helped me find an earring I lost. The room was really big and the access to the pool view we had made our trip. The location also let us walk to a lot of places which is great to avoid the traffic.

United KingdomWas in a great location just minutes from the beach. Pool area was nice but needs more beds or somebody monitoring who leaves towels but doesn’t use. Apartment was lovely and spacious with a huge terrace. My only complaint was the musty smell from the bathroom and fridge. The fridge had been off while no one was in the room and also with taking key out it turns off the electric so we just left one of our keys in so the fridge stayed on.
