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 reviewIt's very well maintained. Spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly. Good air conditioning, comfortable beds and great location.
Maybe having a kettle in the room would have been nice but not necessary either.
Thank you very much for your comments, Ms. Anette: We are glad to know that you had a good experience during your stay at our establishment. We hope to have you again with us. Greetings H ** Alhambra.

Verified reviewCouldn’t have asked for more from this hotel. It is described as 2 stars however it would meet 4 star criteria in Ireland. The staff were extremely friendly and showed us to our room when we arrived. The room was beautiful with Moroccan/Turkish style decor. It was absolutely spotless and spacious perfect for a couple. We had a view of the street and sea below as well as a mini fridge. Air conditioning sufficient. I would definitely recommend this hotel and we will hopefully have the the pleasure of visiting again!
the aircon/ ceiling fan sometimes wouldn’t turn on during the night. Usually resolved itself a few hours later.

Verified reviewVery clean everywhere. Comfortable beds, good shower, fridge in room. Plenty of bars & restaurants close by. Beach not far away.
No outdoor space - little balcony was too small to sit on
Thank you for your feedback, Jan! We're glad to hear you found the place clean and comfortable, and that you enjoyed the bed, the shower, and the great location near bars, restaurants, and the beach. We're sorry to hear the balcony wasn't spacious enough for you to sit comfortably. For future visits, we recommend booking our **Superior Double Room with Terrace** — it’s more spacious and comes with **a table and chairs**, perfect for relaxing outdoors. We’d love to welcome you back soon!

Verified reviewI stayed for 6 nights, the location was good, not far from the beach and short walk to the main area, where there's plenty of places to eat I liked the fact that they had different pillows from the ones on the bed on arrival, I didn't get a good sleep the first night, but a change of pillow and the rest of my stay was comfortable. Staff all said hello when I saw them. The rooms are small, but had safe, and a small fridge which was handy for drinks
There was only a main light which was very bright, could do with a table lamp to turn on when you need the bathroom in the night
Thank you, Carol, for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your 6-night stay with us, especially the comfort of the hotel, the convenient location near the beach and the main area, and the friendliness of our staff. We appreciate your suggestion regarding the lighting in the room — a bedside lamp would definitely make nighttime visits to the bathroom more comfortable, and it's something we’ll consider adding. We're also happy to hear that changing the pillow helped improve your sleep. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Thank you for choosing us!

Dear Ian, thank you for sharing your experience. Indeed, you booked a Double Room with “Patio View,” which is our most compact and budget-friendly option. This type of room is very popular among guests planning short stays and looking for an economical choice in a central location.

Verified review4th time staying here. Super cute Hostal that is super clean, great location and amazing value for its location.
Usually very quiet but we’re some noisy guests in the hallway in the early hours. Not the hostals fault, some people are just disrespectful.
We're so glad to hear this is your fourth stay with us! We sincerely appreciate your loyalty and your kind words about the cleanliness, location, and value for money. We're sorry you had to deal with inconveniences from other guests; as you say, we can't always control these situations, but we appreciate your understanding. We look forward to welcoming you back for a fifth time soon! 😊🌟
