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 reviewGreat location tucked away from the main activity centre. Located on a no through road so it was quiet and peaceful. Would recommend having a car, but it's not too long a walk down to Lemon Bay. Owner and family are charming and were very kind to us, especially speaking English for us Aussies.
Bring some repellent for the mosquitos.

Verified reviewThe location was convenient to catch the bus and supermarket . The washing area was good to dry clothes.
The studio was very smelly. Had cobwebs and small cockroaches which went in the fridge. The linen and towels were very smelly. Did not have a clean and fresh smell. Had to wash before using it. Needs a good clean up to kitchen. Had red stains in carpet and couch. The couch covers needs to be washed as well.

Verified reviewNot much, to be honest. I booked this due to other reviews, but I should have done more of my own research. The sea view was good. Cute enclosed garden to have breakfast or a cocktail.
There is a big difference between rustic and rundown. The fridge was so dirty and there was black on the ceiling of the bathroom. The smell was old musty. I feel it could do with a bit of renovation. I have never felt the need to give a negative review. However, I feel if you have an expectation based on other reviews, you may be disappointed. The house is also up a really long hill so you need to be fit to be walking up and down if you don't have a car, and it won't be a quick trip to the beach.

Verified reviewSpotlessly clean. Excellent value. Everything one needs to self-cater in an expensive city. Private, covered courtyard which was really came into its own with the alternating thunderstorms and hot sunshine.
Quite dated. Small kitchen. A hike up the hill if you don't have a car (but excellent exercise). Loose/ wobbly door slider handle finally fell off door, to courtyard, when trying to close the door during a violent thunderstorm on the last night.

Verified reviewAwesome hosts, we arrived in a taxi with no cash and only realised too late. The owner borrowed us money to pay the taxi which we then paid back when we paid for the stay. When we left the hosts dropped us to the port so we could get a ferry to our next location. Kitchen was fully equipped with big fridge meaning you could make your own meals. The garden was awesome, but it gets too hot during the day so ideal for breakfast only.
Aircon could have been newer and cleaner, but still worked well. There is quite a big hill that goes up to the property, if you don't have a car be prepared to walk 5-10 mins uphill each time you return home. Bed pillows were old and worn.

Verified reviewGood location, excellent host and generally very pleasant environment. Convenient shopping, petrol and ATM
As an English speaking and driving guest I found the property difficult to locate. Arriving in the evening the road signs are almost impossible to read. Coming from the North turn left at the Casino Shopping Centre is an obvious guide. Note that The Rue Louis Catalan takes a sharp turn to the right at the top of the hill.
