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.).

SwitzerlandWe had a wonderful stay at Luna for a week. It's a perfect place to explore Mindelo. It's quiet because not fully in the center yet very close to the beach. The absolute highlight for us was the staff that cared extremely well for us while my wife was a bit sick -- it feels so good in those moment to be around nice and caring people. We will always come back to Luna if we get to Mindelo.

NetherlandsPool is very small. Construction work opposite the hotel. Unfortunately they are building a new huge hotel, just in front of Luna boutique. So the ocean view is almost gone! The location is a bit out of the centre. We took a taxi several times. To the front entrance of the hotel took several extra streets. Because the hotel street is closed due to the construction work.
Very clean hotel. Nice rooms with balconies. Friendly and very helpfull staff. Receptionist helped me with technical tv and adapter issues. A pool. Excellent wifi. A very good restauarant, almost next door. Where I dined 3 times. Delicious breakfast. Beach in front with Kalimba bar and restauarant.

RomaniaThat we had to leave
Wonderful staff, prompt and friendly communication and they helped out with info or arranging car transfers always with a smile. Breakfast was very good, with local sourced fresh fruits and dishes (excellent cachupa)! The room was comfy, nice mattress and had all amenities one would expect. The hotel is located very close to the main beach of Mindelo, Praia da Laginha- amazing beach with crystal clear blue water.

United KingdomThe only thing negative item was the fact that there is new hotel being built right in front of the balcony/swimming pool, so the view was rather ruined. I've added a photo of this. It does not spoil the hotel, just the view.
Really nice small hotel. Good clean facilities, great breakfast and nice pool area. Staff are really friendly and helpful. There is a gate providing a shortcut to the beach, and the restaurant just outside the gate provides really great food. Easy to walk around Mindelo from the hotel, and it is close to the port for the ferry to Santo Antao.

BrazilThey should have an iron avail for customers.
The location of the hotel is great, just 3 min from the beach. The staff was really nice, they can call taxi on your behalf, they are there if you come home late to open the door for you. The breakfast was amazing, they offer savoury and sweet items and you can watch the news in the breakfast room on tv. If the food is cold when you arrive, they can microwave it for you. The swimming pool is great (the outside shower was warm).

PeruNormal rooms don't have space to put anything in bathrooms. The view outside is not as good as advertised, as there is a gigantic tower block being build opposite the pool. Disappointing beef dish. Staff stand and watch you drag your bag up the stairs.
The suite is a lovely room and comfortable. Staff gave us a takeaway breakfast of fruit, juice and yogurt when we flew early.
