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.).

Patricia and her staff were amazing. They helped me book a guide to Santo Antao, made a dinner reservation, booked taxis when I needed them. The space is beautiful and well-maintained and the staff really take it up a notch.

BelgiumNot much really. If we have to pinpoint something, we would say that the street (while central) is a little deserted at night, but well: nothing happened.
My partner and I stayed at Casa Da Djedja for 3 nights when landing in Sao Vicente and liked it so much that we booked it for another 2 nights when coming back to Mindelo to take our flight as we returned from Santa Antao. The place is an island of paradise in Mindelo, with its elegant architecture, white walls and beautiful little garden in the common area. The staff is absolutely lovely and helped us find our bearings on the island.

GermanyThe mattress could have been a bit more comfortable.
The staff were super welcoming and helpful while we had some issues to sort with the local airline. Breakfast was very nice and the overall feel of this hotel was amazing. Very quiet location close to the port.

Every single thing! No need for you to look any further - just book this place! A BIG highlight to their AMAZING staff! I travel quite a bit and I can tell you, it is rare to find such an amazing team of competent, empathetic and kind group of people. Our flight was cancelled (which almost ruined our entire trip) and they went above and beyond to help us. Of course, the hotel in itself is great, constant hot water, very comfy and big bed and a hearty breakfast to kick off your day.

BelgiumThere was nothing to dislike.
The staff was very welcoming, did most everything to make us feel @ home. Very good recommendations on where to eat and tips for our onward trip to Santo Antao. Room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was served early (from 7.00 onwards) in buffet style and packed everything you needed. Overall very much enjoyed our stay.

GermanyCasa da Djedja - that’s not only a quiet and well designed Guesthouse or Boutique Hotel in the vibrant center of Mindelo where you can reach each hot spot in a walking distance. Casa da Djedja is much more, it’s an enchanted place with a very professional, warm-hearted team that creates a home far from home for you. I am sure, you gonna miss that place directly after leaving.

NetherlandsThe common areas are all beatiful and well styled, but the rooms itself are quite basic as well as the bathroom. You do have everything you need but it could use the same attention as the other spaces. I would definitely still recommend the place, but that is what was stopping me to give a 10 star rating.
Very friendly and professional staff, which you notice from arrival till departure. My bag was delayed and they were checking in with me on that regularly, see if they could help, and point me to nearby shops, restaurants, atms. The place is beautiful as well and very peaceful, just a bit away from the busy Mindelo with an inside courtyard where you can relax, read a book. Walking distance from everything you need in Mindelo.
