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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesI do think there should be mosquito screens for the windows. That way we can keep the windows open at night so it’s not so hot.
The host was awesome, she was so sweet and an overall lovely person to talk to. Her property was just perfect for our needs.

United StatesThe apartment needs a small desk and chair for a computer.
The best part of the apartment is the huge balcony with a great view. The apartment is spacious, and the hosts are friendly and make recommendations of places to go and things to see. In my opinion, the best time to reserve the apartment is in December. The Christmas lights and decorations are beautiful. Children sing Christmas carols on the city squares. Some Christmas lights can be seen from the apartment balcony.

United KingdomWhilst the views were amazing, the very steep roads and high bridges on the island are a challenge for anyone like me with a fear of heights. Nothing to do with the apartment though the glass surround on the balcony meant I kept away from the edge! I suppose the location wouldn't be suitable for anyone with mobility problems.
The owner Louise was helpful - nothing was too much trouble and she is a lovely friendly and fun person. The apartment is gorgeous and views over the harbour are amazing.

NetherlandsAs far as we are concerned, there are no downsides!!! Even the bed was fantastic and that is sometimes not the case in Madeira. Some accommodations are also fantastic, but have a bad bed. At Number 15 Ocean & City View Villas everything was perfect for us! YOU DO NEED A CAR, but that is a must in Madeira anyway, we think.... Thank you for the fabulous stay!!!
Number 15 Ocean & City View Villas is a super accommodation!!! The location is great! You have a beautiful view of Funchal and the ocean. The apartment was super clean and huge. The terrace is great. The hosts are also fantastic and helpful. If we go to Madeira again, we will definitely come back here! Funchal is definitely the best place to stay and Number 15 Ocean & City View Villas is a fantastic choice!

United KingdomNothing, everything was great.
The apartment was lovely, it had everything we needed for our stay, it was very spacious and comfortable and the views over Funchal were stunning. There was about a 15 min walk down into town which was fine and the walk back up worked off our lunch and dinner although you can use the buses which are very regular. Louise the host was lovely and very helpful.

United KingdomThe location is wonderful view wise however it is high up in the town so be prepared for a steep walk down and we would suggest an albeit cheap taxi ride back up!
The apartment is fantastic, beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable bed and sitting room and included all we needed. Lovely to have a coffee maker. The view is stunning and the pool is a real bonus. Louise is a great host, so helpful, her recommendations were very useful especially some of the restaurants.

United KingdomThere were no mosquito screens on any doors or windows and it would be helpful to have them on the kitchen and bathroom windows so we could leave these open all the time.
The cottage was beautiful and spacious. Extremely well equipped and the bed and pillows were some of the most comfortable i have ever experienced- just wonderful. Great off street parking. It was also beautifully clean. Excellent host who was very helpful and brilliant instructions to find and access the property.
