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...).

SpainNothing really, plumbing a little noisy, in my room I could hear water hammer in the ceiling several times in the night.
The hotel was in a very nice location, surrounded by trees. Decor was nice and well maintained as was the room. I rang when I arrived and the owner met me a couple of minutes later. Enjoyed a beer on the terrace later and after speaking to another couple of people staying there it sounds like the food was very good too.

IrelandIt was a bit tired/dated.
This was my third time here so I guess it works for me. We walk in this area so it suits from a location viewpoint. I think we were the only guests when we were there which is a bit of a weird experience😳However a big thanks to the lady who was managing the place for organising a lovely evening meal.

United Kingdomsomething that the hotel cannot do anything about! Mountain roads. the weekend we were there it was also the local festival and there was a diversion. the directions to get to the hotel were not good and we only got there because a local helped us by following him. However, once we got there it was great and the festival was brilliant. Very welcoming village
the staff were helpful and very friendly. location close to the village was a bonus. the food in the restaurant was exceptional and good value

MoroccoThe food in the restaurant wasn’t very good, too much salt and a bit dry for my taste. Maybe I choose wrong. I was very happy that the restaurant was open though!
Very clean room with crip sheets and a bathroom with shampoo and soap. The staff was very sweet, they even made me breakfast while the buffet wasn’t open. The garden is beautiful!

Tranquil location near the main village with its bars, shops, and restaurants, perfect for some day hikes. Spacious and comfortable room. The staff was very kind and helpful.

United KingdomNot exactly the warmest of welcomes - the place had the grand total of three people during my two stay there yet when I showed up an hour early check-in was out of the question until the advertised 1pm. The food was very mediocre - the fish I ordered the first night came in a weak tomato sauce - the same sauce was found the next night when I ordered the meatballs. There were three other food options in the village - one seemed to serve only lager the other two only coffee so you really have no other option. Breakfasts are very basic - bread with jam, pate, yoghurt and fruit and the worst coffee I've ever had in Spain. If you are coming here by train please note the very limited service which stops here - three trains in each direction per day. Wifi adequate but weak.
Superb location with fine views across the valley and if you are coming from Algeciras or Malaga the sense of peace and fresh air is a joy. The hotel is a five minute walk from the train station. Clean ensuite rooms in a very atmospheric designed building - all thick walls with wooden beams. The area is superb for walking the two trails which go through the village.
