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.).

New house very well done in a traditional style. There are a few houses next to each other, but it was not noisy or anything. We had each a good privacy. Each house is on 2 floors with the bedroom upstairs.

United KingdomWe loved the warm, friendly Greek welcome from Eleni. A true gem of a lady. I have been travelling to Crete twice a year for 10 years and explored all over the island. This is one of the most exceptional accommodations I have stayed in. The house, the attention to detail truly shows. You can tell that Eleni and her husband have put their heart and soul into creating these finely crafted traditional homes. This stay was towards the end of our travels and we are only sorry we didn’t book here for the whole 2 weeks.. we won’t make that same mistake again ;) if you want to get away from tourists, explore the very best beaches Crete has to offer, experience a little bit of heaven on earth and a warm traditional & tranquil Greek stay then you must visit xerokampos and Lithos houses :) can’t wait for next year ❤️

ItalyThe time I spent there, just 1 night: too short
This is an outstanding property. The building is designed to resemble ancient Minoan dwellings but every detail is meticulously cared for, materials and colors are carefully selected and the result is stunning: you live in a 4-thousand-years old house with a very nice and pleasant decor and all the modern comforts (such as private - and free - parking, air conditioning, refrigerator, coffee machine...). Manager very nice and enthusiastically welcoming. Abundant supplies of food for breakfast. I wish to go back there and spend more time in the (near, hopefully) future.

BelgiumWe had a perfect stay at Lithos Traditional Guest Houses! The house (made with high quality materials) was very comfortable and beautifully decorated with an eye for charming details. The place is situated in the natural splendour of Xerocampos and really close to superb beaches, traditional tavernas and a couple of minimarkets. Our host Eleni was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. She made us feel at home <3

United StatesLeaving :(
Beautiful location, quiet, convenient. The residences are designed with love and attention to detail. From the decor to the electrical installations, you will find thoughtfulness behind all things. The kitchen is well-equipped and you will arrive to a stocked fridge so you do not have to stress about much until you find your bearings around town. There are two mini markets nearby and more stores 20 minutes away at Zakros. We stayed for two weeks and the place had everything we could use in terms of amenities. The owners are incredibly hospitable and discreet, ready to take care of you or leave you alone. Little treats will await you at times. The owners also have a boat and could plan a trip to the nearby island if the weather permits. The location is a good balance for privacy but not total isolation from civilization. There are no bars or clubs in the area thankfully so there is no noise besides the cicadas ans the birds :) There are numerous beaches walking distance and driving distance. You can go to a different one every day and not get bored. Even when windy, you can usually find a nook to swim in that is calm. There are many good places to snack and eat in the area or at the nearby villages. The location is great for excursions to several places 30 to 60 minutes away. Overall, you will not find much better for the value. Whether you come for three days or three months, it will be a hard place to leave. We look forward to returning!

After going to Lithos for two years in a row, we would like to thank Eleni for her hospitality, kindness and her positivity, as well as her warm welcome. Eleni is much more than a host, she is a person full of happiness, kindness and respect. We highly recommend this very typical apartment, filled with charm and calm. It is 10-15 minutes from the beaches on foot and 5 minutes from the restaurants. Plus some restaurants deliver directly to the apartment what is convenient! We highly recommend this place and wish all the best to Eleni and her husband ! THANK YOU Amandine and Noa

AustriaThe atmosphere in the traditional stone house is great. I feel very secure, like at home. The house is designed with great attention to detail, there is a niche in the wall, there is a small table and it is very, very tastefully built. Not only is the house built in a traditional style, the furniture is chosen accordingly and fits perfectly. Very, very neat and very clean.

United KingdomIt is a little distance from the sea side, about 700/800 metres but that I would say is worth it for the quality of the accommodation. Other places nearer to the beach just don't look as nice.
Elena the owner is incredibly welcoming and proud of her fantastic guest house. Everything has been taken care of and the design inside has clearly been very thought out. Each room has the best espresso machine which I highly recommend in the morning with a sunrise over the sea.

UkraineIf you look for a really quiet place, you shouldn't expect a big supermarket around. There's a minimarket with fresh bread and all the badic things, but you should think if you need anything special beforehand. We were happy to have the last pack of cornflakes our kids like from the shop, still.
Fantastic place. Kids called our maisonette 'a magic castle'. The interior is as beautiful as the exterior. Even more, it is comfortable down to every smallest detail, including super comfortable beds and Illy coffee machine for your best morning espresso with a seaview. Eleni and Konstantinos were 120% hospitable, made us feel at friends' home, gave us many good advice. We loved the location, with a seaview and short walk to a perfect beach. Quiet as you can imagine in October. Once again, the traditional look + modern comfort design is just fantastic.
