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.).

PolandThe room is in the center so expect a lot of noise during the night. With closed windows it's not a problem. Huge advantage of this place is (besides the location, close to all main attractions) the washing machine!

AustraliaThere is no lift in this building which is not great for families with babies (which was the case with us). There is no on-site parking, there is a paid parking station directly across the road which is very convenient, just offput by the misleading information on the listing saying there is on-site parking. There was some evidence of mold in one of the bedrooms and a bathroom, given that it is an older building it's to be expected, we just chose not to use those rooms.
Excellent location central to lots of interesting sights and great for shopping area. Very spacious 4 bedroom apartment with big beds in every room and 2 lovely bathrooms, immaculate presentation and everything catered for, a full kitchen with all utensils etc. provided, even had coffee pods available.

South AfricaThe responses from host initially was poor. Only responded a few days before check in after funds were deducted from my card despite follow ups. The unit above noise carries through so struggled to sleep due to loud noises until 1am and then from about 4am again. Sound proofing would be highly recommended. Also club / restaurant noise next door.

United KingdomI was a bit disappointed because they have different rooms and they do differ a lot, so when I arrived at the property I was expecting a very bright room with stairs as per the picture or a one floor room with plenty of windows. However, I got the studio A which has only a small window on the top floor where the bed is located. For me, the lack of sunlight is not appropriate so this made me a bit upset since I didn't get what was promised/as per the pictures. In addition to it, during my stay there was not a tea towel to be able to dry dishes so had to pick a towel. Lastly, I believe due to the lack of windows there was a mold smell in the studio which didn't feel that good when arriving in the property. As well, the toilet flush wasn't working properly, I communicated with them and they came to fix after texting them 2 times but it was a bit unprofessional because I didn't know what time they would be coming and the person to fix started to talk Spanish with me (I do speak Spanish and Portuguese so it wasn't a problem), however, it just felt a bit overwhelming and out of the blue.
The location of the place is great - close to Bolhao metro, as well as the famous Mercado do Bolhao. Besides that in front of the property there's a PINGO DOCE (chain of supermarket) or 10 min walk for a CONTINENTE (another supermarket). I didn't use any public transport during my stay as Porto is quite small and if you like to walk then this is a perfect spot. In addition, the rooms/studios are quite spacious so also fells nice.
