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 reviewI stayed there for a night during the Camino. It was good enough for one night and not too far from the Camino route.

Verified reviewBreakfast was very good. Room was clean
The bed and pillow was the most uncomfortable on our Portuguese Camino trip. Very hard mattress and pillow. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The entrance to the hotel was on the backside of the building in relation to the Camino.

Verified reviewThe breakfast was very good , selection of cereals, breads , yogurt , fruit juices , coffee machine for coffee which was great . Excellent staff , very friendly and helpful.
The hotel is tired , needs modernisation , the room was adequate but needed a re vamp very basic , no kettle or fridge . If you hire a car there is free parking underneath , however it’s extremely narrow and tight if you have a large car .

Verified reviewThe staff was friendly and location was good. We felt safe.
The air conditioning didn’t work and the doors to the outside were sort of broken, which made it hard to hang our clothes up.
Thank you for your feedback. We are gradually improving. We hope to see you soon. Best regards

Dear guest, We appreciate your comments. We apologize for not being able to meet your expectations. The high demand left us with no possibility of exchange. Regarding the AC, it is still in heating mode, as the weather forecast requires it. See you soon. Flag Hotel Barcelos

Verified reviewThe WiFi was terrible. The room was old. Musty closet smell. The bed was small, low and uncomfortable. The room had a small balcony but it was surrounded by stucco walls, no view at all and also no chairs or furniture of any kind, just an empty space. Bathroom old , shower very small and shower head broken.
Breakfast was decent.

Verified reviewThe location is within walking distance of the town centre and right on the Camino de Santiago. The solid wood shutters on the window allowed us to sleep soundly during the daytime. The shower pressure was amazing. The thermostat is easily accessible and we got to adjust the room temperature to our taste.
Unfortunately, the bed was a bit hard, and the pillows were uncomfortable. We got four pillows for our double bed, but all of them seemed old and were falling apart. I had to sleep without one.
Thank you for your comment. We hope to hear from you again soon.~ Best regards, Flag Hotel Barcelos
