Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

IrelandParking is a big issue there if you have a car rental. There is paid parking down the road but unfortunately we found out the hard way that the car park closes at midnight and does not open until 8am. An inconvenience if planning on getting up early.
Good location with sea view balcony. Hosts were exceptional and very helpful throughout our stay.

SlovakiaThe kitchen was very tiny. Overall it was a nice place not too big for a family but for me and my 6 year old son it was big enough!
I love the view on the ocean! The best area in Funchal San Martinho area! Close to the beach and the downtown!

FranceLack of wine glasses, limited items to cook in appartment (eg. no oven), appartment is on east side so after 11h00 it’s just cold on the balcony as you don’t have sun- but remember we were in January :)
great ocean view, location of building, free car park, confortable bed, close to bakery or grocery, clean appartment. Perfect appartement for these who spend active time and come back after sunset

Czech RepublicStreet parking as there is just few places by the hotel, but mostly used by residents. In case you come later it is full, you can park in the paid parking house nearby or far away on a street then.

New ZealandFacilities are well-used and outdated, very low water pressure, no English instructions on how to use the washing machine and probably it was faulty, Only one key was supplied and no information on how to gain access if you get locked out.
Perfect location, View, easy access to shops and restaurants

United KingdomUnfortunately apart from the convenience of location, the apartment/building is very dated and dirty. Very run down and needs immediate updating. Building not well maintained and security breach as access reader into level 1 (car park side) is damaged and not replaced so anyone can walk in. Building/room condition - very dated and old. Lights in corridor leading to flat have burnt out but not replaced. Condition of room is very dated (very 70s). Sliding door very flimsy and because located near ocean, very windy hence the noise of door rattling against the frame at night. Sliding door not double glazed and doubt they were ever replaced. Windows in same condition. Can be very noisy in the morning due to windows and sliding doors not being double glazed. There's no curtains but just thin layer of liners so when sun rises very early in the morning, the room lights up completely and very difficult to rest properly. Toilet is ok. There's a huge crack under the toilet seat and there's signs of water ingress in the ceiling (bubbling of plaster) right above bathtub. There's bit of mould. Hot plate not working. Landlord mentioned upon check in it is due to be replaced. But, upon checking reviews, this has been going on for awhile and still no replacement. Fridge not maintained, huge ice crystals (picture) Cleanliness - very dusty corridors and room. Not sure if room was dusted and cleaned before we moved in but I assumed it was cleaned after the previous guest(s) moved out and never touched again? Floor was very dusty upon check in, hanging light above dining table also very dusty and greasy (refer to picture with wet wipes). The bed sheets so dusty we could not breathe properly at night due to dust, itched throughout the night. Had to deep clean flat on our own. Mopped floor 3 times and wash sheets. Washing machine took forever to complete (4 hours) cycle (due to old age). Pretty sure needs replacing.
Location was great and facing the ocean. Very central as well, close to shops, restaurants and public pool.
