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...).

DenmarkIt could be nice just to be able to buy and ice cream or a soda/beer on premises as nothing is within walking distance.
Nice, big pool in lush and green gardens. Very large area with bananatrees, orange trees etc. Also a playground for the little ones. Parking for everyone behind gates. We stayed in a big appartment with two bedrooms and a kitchen/living room. A big terrace and semi-private garden (semi-private because open for everyone, but every appartment had their own limited space and I saw no one going into our part in our 9 days there). We loved our stay here.

Hong KongThe room has mold smell..The aircon does not help as the air coming out also smells mold. The mosquito screen in the living room patio door has a hole on the side which we did not realise. A cat came into the apartment and did not want to leave. She seems to know the apartment well. The fridge has rusty stain in the surface. The freezer has ice built up. The kitchen cabinets also smell mold. The sofas are dated and also smell mold.
The garden is beautiful.

United States of AmericaA very sick receptionist checked us in, she should have stayed home. The coffee was horrible, should have guessed it as Everybody was drinking tea. The charge €10 pp for breakfast. Breakfast was decided in seating groups, we were the 9.30 group and not much was left available. The apartment and pool are very nice though. The area not so much, more industrial area, no restaurants nearby, but if you have a car it is only 17 min to Ponta Delgado.

United KingdomThe apartments have sliding doors instead of windows (which is great!), but some of the locks didn't work that well, and probably need adjusting. The coffee machine is located in reception, but it would be better in the room. The hotel would benefit from some indoor facilities. They have a big room, which they hire for events with nothing really for guests. There is a pool table, but unfortunately they have no balls or queues (we asked at reception). These are all minor things. This is a great hotel, and I would recommend it.
Super friendly staff. Fantastic housekeeping (I was very impressed). Large, clean, comfortable apartments. Good beds. Good air con / heating. Nice clean outdoor pool, open all year round. Even though it isn't heated, my kids still enjoyed a refreshing swim. Lovely gardens. Friendly cats. Our room had a fridge freezer, microwave, kettle and toaster. You can request a small portable oven from reception at no charge. Check-out is until 12:00, which was really helpful! This is a really great place to stay.

BelgiumThere seems to be some kind of a humidity problem going on, since I read in several comments that people experienced some weird smells and stains on ceilings/walls. Our room smelled very humid as well, which was not too big of a deal since we only stayed 3 nights. If you are not a fan of cats, this place is also not the place for you, since there are about 10 (adorable!) cats that call this place their home. Lastly, if you do not travel by car, this place is a bit far from the city center of Ribeira Grande and the city center of Rabo de Peixe did feel a tiny bit unwelcoming in some parts. We went there on foot one evening and did not feel too much at ease.
The personnel was very friendly and professional and helped us find a nice place to eat not too far from the hotel. The swimming pool is not very big but definitely big enough to cool off after/during a warm summer day. There a plenty of cats on the premises, but they are well-behaved and some are even shy. I saw some remarks that you cannot eat in peace, but for us this was not at all true. Furthermore there is the option to have breakfast at the hotel, which was okay (bread, some sweets, fruit, eggs, cornflakes).

ItalyA pond next to our building unit caused the presence of the only mosquitoes we met on the island in the whole week. The mosquito net at the windows left small but not-negligible openings and a large beetle took advantage of that to enter our apartment. We found the pillows uncomfortable.
Beautiful position. Large apartment on the first floor of a two apartments' unit (Gladiolo) with well separate rooms and all comforts. Large bathroom. Room service was unexpected and appreciated. Immersed in beautiful gardens with great vista. Nice pool.
