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 StatesWe were only given one towel to shower with. By the time we got around to showering, there was nobody at reception to ask for an extra one.
Great location, staff were friendly. We didn’t try the restaurant, but the food looked good. We had a room with a balcony. The balconies are small, but good enough for two people to sit outside and have a drink. The bathroom was fairly recently renovated so it was nice.

United StatesNothing, everything was good. Maybe they could have breakfast for their guests in the morning. It was difficult to find coffee in this sleepy beach town in the morning.
It was a nice location at the end of the beach. It had an attached restaurant that was very good. The paella was amazing. The wine was also good.

Latvia2 things: The sound proofing is almost nonexistent. We could hear almost every word spoken from our neighbors, although the man had very loud voice, but still. Also, the glass door to bathroom in bad solution. Nobody needs to see and hear me on toilet, not even my wife.
The location is perfect in the middle of old town, center of town and the beach. The terrace is also really nice to have, although it does look over the parking, still it’s cool to have large terrace.

BelgiumI couldn’t think of something, really…
Among the best travel experiences I had. And there’s a lot of them… Excellent! A 5* experience at a 2* accommodation is absolutely exceptional! Paco and his son are wonderful people, who could easily become my friends. Thanks so much for the short but great time at Barra Alta guys! I’ll be back soon!

New ZealandDifficult to find parking, but that’s not the hotels problem. If you have a car, you can actually drive right up to the hotel, and you may be lucky enough to find a park there. A little noisy from the street, but it didn’t last too long.
Absolutely brilliant location, close to shops, restaurants, old town, and beaches. Lovely restaurant downstairs with great food. Friendly staff, who let us check in early. Would definitely stay there again.

United KingdomNothing
We have just had a fabulous stay in this family run hotel. We stayed in room 3 which has a small balcony with a table and chairs and overlooks the castle and the square, perfect for an evening drink as the sun sets. Good size room, with small fridge to put your drinks in, safe available for 3€ per day, large bathroom and great shower. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the decor was modern. The breakfast for €6 was basic, toast, juice and coffee but freshly prepared and we had enough to eat. We ate in the restaurant on one evening and had a good meal. We were able to park the car in the square in front of the hotel and were lucky to get a space and didn’t move it for 3 days, it was free until the 1st of June then it is pay and display. There is another large car park a few minutes walk from the hotel if you can’t find a space. Peniscola is a great place to stay and we spent a whole day around the castle and there are some good restaurants up there We would like to thank Paco, Juan and all the staff who were very friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble Would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to come back in the future
