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.).

United StatesBeds are somewhat uncomfortable, we ended up rotating the mattress which helped a lot.
Well kept and clean and at the perfect location if you are staying within FLBTB. Loved the location and service, Renee is great and provided us with beach chairs a big plus and gave us tips on where the grocery store and the sought out locations where. This is my second time here and definitely would recommend as a great budget stay!

United StatesThe parking was a little tricky but only because we arrived late at night.
We loved how close this location was to everything you needed! The beach, store , shops! The beach chairs and towels were such a nice touch, the room was clean and even smelled like it had just been freshly cleaned. Everything was bright and beautiful. Would definitely stay again. The front desk lady was super nice and accommodating.

NetherlandsThe building is a bit old and the warm water pipes are not well isolated. In the (early) morning you might need to wait quite some time before the water gets warm. There is a (locked) interconnecting door to the neighboring room, which results in significant noise from the other guests being easily audible. There are some points of attention in the bathroom: * The towel rack above the toilet is loose and not firmly attached to the wall. * The window cannot be opened.
The location is excellent near shops, restaurants and easy access to the beach. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. The staff was friendly.

SlovakiaThe location was TOP. A few days we had bad weather, so the heating swimming pool was great. It was clean with very nice terrace. Kitchen very well equipped. Very kind people there. Late check out was perfect. Very close to the beach. It was not possible to swim in the sea, it was very windy. Close to the publix. We feel very safe there.
