Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

PolandWhile using the shower, the water doesn't for down for a long time. Also there is a lot of water on the floor all the time so it's slippery. In the room, there is no kettle or fringe, which would be useful.
Good localisation, especially when you have a flight soon ( it's very close to the airport). It's also close from the city centre and the bus stop (you can go to santa maria or to the airport for 1€). You can use the swimming pool with no charge. It's pretty cheap for a sal. It's very near to bakery and to market.

United StatesThe mattresses were old style springs, which are not the most comfortable (ok for a night or 2). The main problems were the water and kitchen. The shower was hit or miss...either scalding hot and impossible to use, or really low water pressure...to the point it was difficult to wash soap off. The kitchen was a disaster: dirty dishes everywhere and generally unclean. Wifi would frequently cut out.
It is located fairly close to the airport (you could walk about 30 minutes to get there if you wanted), and is generally a good location! Near to a couple of nice cafes (Girasol and Bom Dia; 5 minute walk) and minibuses to take to Santa Marta (6 minute walk). There were 2 fans in the room for some ventilation in the warm night. Absolutely nothing special, but for 23 euros, totally fine for a night. Pool looked clean and nice! Hosts allowed us to use the rooms until 8pm the day of check-out while we waited for a flight....that was totally awesome!

SpainThere was no one at the door when we arrived, even though we told them the exact time of our arrival and we arrived on time. Thus we were waiting in the street at night knocking on the door until someone realized we were there. (To make things worse, there was a black out in the whole island so it was entirely dark in the street. Luckily our taxi driver waited with us). Cleaning should be definitely improved.
The premises is located in a good area in Espargos and it is very close to the airport. Great if you just want to rest a few hours before your flight departs. The room is equipped with fans and the window has net in case you want to keep it open. The price is convenient and they drove us to the airport without any charge, which was very appreciated. TV and free Wi-Fi

United KingdomEvery thing was great
Exceptional hospitality. There was a little water problem with my room before I got there, and was greeted by the chairman of the football club, Carlos. He explained things over a drink, or 2, and Carlos asked if he could upgrade me to Angela apartments. I was a little dubious because of the reviews. No problem. It was superb. He personally took me there and any bad reviews are not true. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were exceptional and the apartment was more central. I was still allowed to use the facilities, for free, at Acedemico de Sal. It was graduation weekend and football against Sao Vincent, Espargos won. The City was buzzing. I was so happy to be there to see everyone, and myself, enjoying a Saturday night. I felt part of the community. No extra charge for accommodation, and they would not accept payment until everything was sorted. Unbelievable hospitality. Thank you all

NetherlandsThe location is perfect for business: WiFi is good, and all government services are within 2minutes walk. (immigration, tax office, municipality, chamber of commerce for opening company, tribunal, lawyers, bank). For good breakfast, there is opposite hotel a Panideira bread shop place, very well priced too. A supermarket is opposite the Panideira. If they add just 1 water kettle (for cooking water) in the big lobby (after when the bar is closed) and just 1 hairdryer also in lobby, the stay would be even better - but it was not promised, so this is just my suggestion ;) - , and this extra, would be without costing the hotel anything :) :)
