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.).

PhilippinesWe didn’t like the foul smell in the toilet and room. The screen door is broken so we couldn’t leave the door open for some fresh air. There is no double lock from inside and in the morning someone opened the door although we had the “DO NOT DISTURB” sign.
Breakfast location was good. Overlooking view of the airport and see. We arrived late and self check-in was smooth. Due to late arrival, the staff was kind enough to wait for me to have breakfast before they close the kitchen.

United KingdomWe were eaten alive by mosquitoes during our very short time in the room, would recommend bringing bug spray or a plug-in.
Great location for an early next-day flight as only a short drive to the airport. Stunning view from the balcony too, featuring the Sao Lourenco trail in the distance.

UkraineWe take it for one night as the closet hotel to the airport. Unfortunately, the way take more than 30 min to them and more part of the road you will climb up, We booked it for one night as it was the closest hotel to the airport. Unfortunately, the trip took over 30 minutes, and most of the way involves going uphill. Be cautious — Google Maps may provide inaccurate navigation.

SwitzerlandI was quite scared after seeing the reviews but honestly i was really pleased to see the room. It was nice and comfortable, my room had a great balcony with sea view and also view on the airport landing strip which I thought was cool. The only two things that bothered me are that the plug doesn't work with light turned off which is impractical to charge your phone when sleeping and they were really loud at 9am working in the building with drills etc so impossible to sleep after that. Overall great for the price

IrelandWhile clean & and comfortable, Al Moniz had a strong & very strange smell throughout all areas, which was more than a little off-putting & had permeated all linens in the room. Also, there were blankets, no duvets & cheap foam chip filled pillows. There is no lift between floors, as the hotel is built into the hillside this is a disadvantage as the stairs are steep for transporting luggage. It is handy for the airport, being just 5 minutes away. & taxis are cheap. No breakfast option is.offered.

Czech RepublicOn the property add, it's mentioned that it's located 1km away from the airport, which is actually 1km as the crow flies. We walked from the airport and it's actually about 3.5km, all uphill.
The accommodation is close to the airport, which is usefull in case of late arrival or early departure. Nice room, clean.

Czech RepublicMosquito net only on the window in the room, we left the bathroom window open one night and several mosquitoes flew in during the night. Sometimes weaker hot water pressure (probably shared plumbing with other rooms). But for the price of the accommodation these are very minor discomforts.
Clean and cozy room and bathroom. Clean and dry towels every day (which was great because of the high humidity overnight the wet towels couldn't dry - THANKS!). Well cooling small fridge, fan, hairdryer, TV included in the room. Comfortable bed. Parking right in front of the building. Super fast online check-in/out (only two messages via WhatsApp and handover building and room access code). Close to the airport (within walking distance). But the noise of landing/departure planes in the room not hearable.

NetherlandsNot a lot of parking space, and people with bad parking skills made it difficult for us to fit our small car and get our luggage out. No elevator. Small, uncomfortable bed. No AC. Dated interior made it feel a little dusty.
Close to the airport, we arrived around 2AM but we had received check in instructions beforehand so we were able to get into our room easily. Nice balcony
