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 reviewThe hosts at the Casa da Djedja guest house were incredible. They were so knowledgable, gave great recommendations, and organized all of our reservations. We highly recommend the breakfast at this hotel, as everything was homemade, fresh, and integrated the best parts of Cabo Verdean cuisine. Aesthetically and comfort-wise, Casa was wonderful. The room was beautiful with comfortable beds, reliable hot water, a well-functioning AC, and a large TV. It is walking distance to some of the best restaurants in Mindelo and the ocean. Thank you Patricia for an amazing stay!

Verified reviewA true boutique hotel that would earn top ratings anywhere in Europe. The building and the courtyard are stunning, with the smallest details carefully and tastefully thought out. Room was spacious, bed large and comfortable, and shower with great pressure. Breakfast was delicious with lots of variety. But the best part was the staff. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. They helped us areange transport and gave us great local recommendations. If we ever return to Mindelo, we're definitely staying here again.
It's on the pricier side for Cape Verde, but they absolutely deliver.

Verified reviewThis is a very tastefully designed hotel with lots of love for detail. I found it to be my most beautiful stay on Cabo Verde. Everyone was very friendly and accomodative. The room had lots of space and very high ceilings. The breakfast was delicious and rich.
Breakfast: As a vegetarian I didn't like the cheese to be placed right next/under the ham. Here and there I noticed a bit of hair (not just one or two) of previous guests on the floor.
Dear Steve, Thank you so much for your kind review and for the kind words about our Guesthouse. We sincerely apologize for the oversight regarding the hairs you found in the room. Cleanliness is extremely important to us, and we take such matters very seriously. We’ve already addressed this with our housekeeping team to ensure even more thorough checks are carried out moving forward. Your comments help us improve, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better experience on your next visit to our beautiful island. All the best, Patricia and team
