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.).

The house is so wonderful, it has everything, location, cleanliness, all that you need. Hugo made our stay in Funchal very special. Thanks for everything.

United KingdomThere is nothing about this property we didn't like. A perfect base for exploring, which we did a lot of!
We liked everything about this apartment! The beds were very comfortable, it was spotless, had everything you needed including a washing machine. We particularly liked the location which was walking distance to all of the main sights in the old town. Our host, Hugo, was absolutely the best host we have ever had. He collected us from the airport, gave helpful and useful advice on everything. Can't be faulted! Would definitely recommend - and he has another nearby property for more people which looks stunning. Madeira has something for everyone and we loved it! We would recommend hiring a car if you're staying a bit longer (we were there for a week). Drivers are courteous and polite on the whole.

The communication: Hugo the owner of the house is a very welcoming person, explains and suggests what to visit, where to eat, where to rent a car, where to and not park. He was in contact with us almost every day, asking if all was fine. Kindness: Hugo picked us up and dropped us at the airport, welcomed us with so many gifts ( exotic fruits from Madeira, wine, chocolates). He arranged a tourist guide. House: as described. All what you need is there. Although we stayed only 8 nights, Hugo arranged the cleaning. It is situated near everything (buses, shops). Hugo will hand you a map and will explain what's best to visit. We really can't complain. We have enjoyed staying here and are recommending you too. Hugo speaks English so don't be skeptical. Thanks Hugo for making our trip comfortable 🙂 🤗 🙏

GermanyNothing to complain about (maybe except of mosquitos but this is out of Hugo's hands)
I travel a lot and I won't exaggerate if I say that Hugo was the best host I have ever had. He went above and beyond to make our stay unique. Not only did he pick us up from the airport but also offered a drop off after our stay. We were welcomed with exotic fruits, cookies, cake, local wine and a bottle of water. Hugo also shared with us all his recommendations on where to eat/drink, what to see, how to organize things etc. Our stay in Casa da Avo Clementina was truly amazing and if we are ever back to Madeira (one can hope!) we will definitely stay here again. It was one of my best trips! Obrigada!

The location is also perfect as it really does not require a steep walk on the streets on Funchal (5min walking Mercado dos Lavradores). Would recommend to everyone!

Quite possibly the best place we've stayed while travelling! The host and the accommodation were amazing. Hugo went above and beyond as host. He gave recommendations through WhatsApp and a personally annotated map of Funchal and Madeira island, left local wine, fruits and biscuits upon arrival, and picked us up from our accommodation in Porto da Cruz and dropped us off at the airport. The accommodation was absolutely brilliant! It was clean, had bath towels and beach towels, a small garden to sit in during the day and a living room with a TV.
