How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified review10/10 – Absolutely Perfect Stay at Casa Bom Dia! Our stay at Casa Bom Dia was unforgettable thanks to Cristina’s warm hospitality and attention to detail. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel incredibly welcome, showing us around and sharing amazing local tips that truly made our visit special. The room was beautiful, spotless, and comfortable, with a lovely view that we enjoyed every morning. The entire staff was friendly and kind – it felt like staying with family. Every recommendation Cristina gave us was spot-on, from restaurants to hidden gems in Mindelo. And we can’t forget Bronk – the best dog tour guide ever! His charm added an extra touch of magic to our stay. We genuinely didn’t want to leave. Thank you, Cristina and the whole Casa Bom Dia team – we’ll be back!
Hey Frini! Wow, thank you so much for the awesome review. We're super happy you felt at home with us and enjoyed everything — especially Bronk’s tours! It was a real pleasure having you, and we can't wait to see you again. Safe travels until then!

Verified reviewChristoph and his manager Christina have created a peaceful haven in Mindelo to relax and enjoy all Sao Vincente has to offer. Close to the town centre but away from busy areas. Breakfasts are plentiful and there is a wide choice of food. Shared fridge and sun terrace. Very good value. Perfect for sundown playing Ouril on the terrace!
Hi Jacqueline, Thanks a lot for your kind words! We're happy you enjoyed the chill vibe, the breakfast, and sunset on the terrace. Hope to see you again soon!

Verified reviewThe house is very close to bars and restaurants. The room is big and bed comfortable. AC and fan are appreciated. Cristina is very helpful and nice. The best of all is the breakfast and the terrace.
The house is not sound isolated so you can listen to guest leaving and entering to their rooms as well as noise in the street. Not a problem is you are a heavy sleeper.
Thank you for your review! We're pleased you enjoyed the convenient location, spacious room, comfortable bed, and the terrace breakfast experience. Cristina will be delighted by your kind words. We appreciate your note regarding sound insulation and will keep it in mind for future improvements. We hope to welcome you again soon!

Verified reviewWe had a great stay! The location is excellent, and we loved the roof terrace with its beautiful views over Mindelo. Our room was equipped with both a/c and a fan, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and everything was spotlessly clean. Christophe was a great host and Cristina was especially helpful with making restaurant reservations and arranging a taxi. We would definitely recommend staying here!

We would have appriciated if construction works had been communicted beforehand. Rooms are about to be equiped with air condition.
Thanks for your review Joerg, and sorry for the inconvenience that the preparation of the air condition installations might have caused.

Verified reviewWe had a really pleasant stay at Casa bom Dia. The room was ver clean and the roof top terrace was amazing. The location was very good as well. Restaurants were in walking distance as well as a small grocery store right next door. Christophe was very uncomplicated and really nice and provided us with all information and recommendations. When our arrival was not going as intended due to the flight condition he was very flexible with the arrival dates. Also he provided us breakfast as a to go package when we were leaving for an early tour! I would defitnetly stay there again and recommend the Accomodation
Hi Aslar, it was our pleasure. You both were great guests! I very much appreciate your feedback. Take care and good luck in Ireland or in the place you continue your adventures.

Verified reviewHospitality of the host Christophe and the abundant breakfast. Nice views from the sunny and relaxing roof terrace. We could stay another night after our flight was cancelled
It's a subtropical region with abundant sunshine. Therefore, our room became too warm, despite fan. In walking distance from village centre, however, late at night sometimes annoyance from grog-loving persons.

Verified reviewPerfect place for a stay in Mindelo. The provided breakfast was much enjoyed: fresh fruit platter, very good bread, yoghurt and a good shot of caffeine to get your day kickstarted. All this served on the wonderful rooftop terrace overlooking the bay of Mindelo. Room is spacious and has a nice, warm shower.

Verified reviewThe roof terrace where breakfast is served and is available at all times. Table tennis table. Dan who served breakfast was very personable.
We booked a room with a balcony. When we arrived one was not available. Shower wall was moldy and water did not drain away quick enough, so a pool developed around our feet.
As we said at your arrival the same room was booked via booking.com at the same time (a glitch in their system). We only had you pay for the room you had. We are in the process of fixing the shower wall now, as we want to offer the best experience for our guests.
