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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

PortugalWe had a nice time at Splanada poilon. The rooms are spacious, the breakfast was nice and the staff is really nice. If you have the possibility, taste their grog from their own production. We also had dinner at their restaurant and the food was incredibly good.

GermanyThe room was way too big with just basic furnature, felt almost empty and the bathroom had a terrible smell.
The view to the mountains with the morning sun and the breakfast area was nice. Location was great, but not for being in the centrum - there you have to walk 15 minutes.

GermanySome minor things in the room needed to be repaired. Staircases have no handrails which is a bit cumbersome/dangerous for a toddler

United KingdomNot a lot of vegetarian options.
Location unbelievably beautiful. I did leave the car further away so wouldn’t have to drive on the very narrow two way street, so a 5min walk. Room was super clean and spacious. When we stayed there there was very little other people so very nice and calm. Food was simple but good. When we went, the employees didn’t really speak English but we got by. Pool was cool.

Magnificent views. Good breakfast. Huge room. Someone from the hotel picked us up from the airport and dropped us into Praia, at a good price. Otherwise, we would never have been able to get to and from there. Good to see another side to Cape Verde as mainly staying on Sal.

SenegalThe shower facilities in the room were not exceptional compared to the rest of the structure.
Really nice hotel in a lovely location, with a great view on the surrounding valley. Spacious and comfortable room. The structure also has a nice swimming pool overlooking the valley, and also provides an excellent local cuisine.

United KingdomLocated on a steep cobbled unlit lane around a mile from the centre of Assomada but taxi is only €2 max.
Nice views, high up and comfortable accommodation. Good leisure area with shallow pool, loungers, tables and chairs. Staff were really friendly and helpful, despite, at times, language difficulties.

The very friendly welcome and the exceptionally accommodating and helpful staff. Spotlessly clean rooms The small swimming pool to cool off in. The location (in a quiet end of this already quiet town) and the beautiful views. The walk down the hill to look at the tree (why take a taxi?)

NorwayThe curtains in my room didn't offer adequate coverage, and although the terrace wasn't overly crowded, it still made taking a shower a bit less comfortable.
The breakfast was not only delicious but also authentically local. Dinner at the hotel was equally delightful. The staff, with their helpful, charming, and warm demeanor, added to the overall enjoyable experience. The rooms were comfortable, boasting an incredible mountain view that added to the overall charm of the stay.

PortugalI loved everything, Hamilton the owner received us with a great smile and a lot of attention to detail. Ni the chef prepared us a wonderful dinner, and local breakfast freshly made. Danielle and Steve served us, and shared their culture with us with a lot of sympathy. The swimming pool was clean and has an awesome view to the Malagueta mountains and valley. The bedroom was very spacious and immaculate. And had an amazing view. I would totally recommend the place to anyone who's searching for a nice, comfy and "it feels like home 🏠 place". The music in the esplanade was local and really pleasant. Amazing and thanks for everything dear hosts.
