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):
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.
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.).

SpainOur room was in the next street not actually where it is shown in the picture. The rooms are very dated and could do with being upgraded a little.
It was very close to the centre and easy to park nearby. The owners were very helpful and caring.

UkraineThis is not a negative point, but rather advice for future guests: if you plan to stay at the hotel during city celebrations in the central square, it may be quite noisy.
Perfect location, right in the city centre, surrounded by many cafés and restaurants. The room is not luxurious, but for the price and considering the location, it is an excellent option. A simple breakfast (coffee/orange juice/toast with ham and cheese) is included in the room price. The room also has fully functional air conditioning. The hotel staff are polite and welcoming.

United KingdomCentrally located a 10 minute walk from the central bus station. A perfect location in Vila Real itself and good value stay. We arrived at 10.30 in the morning and were able to leave our bag in our room with no problem as it was already available. All the staff were pleasant and very helpful despite their not speaking English …. we got by without any problems at all.

United KingdomIt can get a bit noisy at night due to the heavy doors. I wouldn’t stay longer than a couple of nights, but honestly, why would you stay more than a couple of nights in Vila Real?
This was a last-minute booking, and it turned out to be a great choice! The owner is a very sweet and welcoming lady. The location is perfect, right in the middle of Vila Real. The accommodation is simple but very clean, with everything you need for a comfortable night’s sleep. Plus, the breakfast was excellent, especially for the price. Highly recommend!

United KingdomThe man who initially came to us on check in was very grumpy, he wasn’t much better at breakfast. You get brought what he brings you to eat, ham and cheese in a baguette and a croissant. Unable to park motorbikes outside but free parking a 5 minute walk away and it’s opposite the Police Station. The Police thought it funny we were locking the bikes up.
Check in is in the cafe underneath. The lady was nice and we managed despite the language differences. The rooms are a little tired but comfortable enough and with plenty of beds. 2 out of the 3 rooms booked had 3 beds in. No hairdryer in the rooms. Very central and despite there being some sort of celebration going on the room was quiet.
