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.).

GermanyThe wifi was a bit weak at times. A small bedside lamp would have been great.
I really liked it. I had a room on the 3rd floor and a great view of Ksamil from my balcony and the sunset in the evening. I had everything I needed in the room. A small kitchenette, a dining table, wardrobe. There was also a TV, but I didn't use it. The bed was super comfortable. The complex is in a (still) very quiet area. However, you can quickly walk to the centre of Ksamil and thus to many restaurants and supermarkets. The big plus, however, was the pool. Perfect for a bit of relaxation.

Excellent! The owner was willing, drove to the port for us and finally took us there. The room was clean, the bathroom was great, the kitchen had everything we needed. The pool under the room was great too. Total satisfaction for the money! Thank you.

Beautiful little apartment with lovely swimming pool. Away from the hustle and bustle of town and the noise but close enough to enjoy all amenities. Beach 10 minutes walk. Excellent value for money and lovely hosts. The studio was immaculate and bed comfy. Gorgeous terrace to have breakfast on and friendly kittens that came to visit.every day.

UkraineThe main issue was wi-fi quality. It either worked terribly or didn't work at all most of the time. I had to use my mobile phone as an access point literally all the time One more thing to note is that the road outside is not good and there are some construction sites on the way to the center
The location is what I expected, easy to get to the beach, there are grocery stores and cafes nearby. There is enough space and 2 rooms that allow some privacy for work-related phone calls. The kitchen is well-equipped and functional. The hosts are friendly. The view from the apartment's balcony was good. Overall, I enjoyed this stay

United KingdomThe owner was great picked us up and dropped us back to the port in saranda, the studio was perfect for my wife and I. If your one for cooking you only have one cooking ring, but that didn't bother us as we eat out every night, Albania needs to get kettles in rooms. For making Tea. Ksamil is a great place to visit.

KosovoWiFi could be more Stable, but the Owner assured me that he's working on it. Rooms are actually smaller than shown on the Pictures so... try to avoid the Rooftop rooms if you're tall. Or you're gonna have a hard time avoiding hitting the ceiling. The Beds could be a bit bigger if destined for couples. A 140cm (wide) Bed is certainly not enough. The Kitchen Supplies are pretty old, hhmm... try replacing them with Materials which can handle mishandling (for example "Cheramic Frying Pan") that way... even if the Guests use the Hard Side or the Sponge to wash it... the Frying Layer will not be destroyed.
The Pool was Nice, with Outside Showers/Toilets, every room had Balconies with nice Views on all sides. You had personal kitchens if you want to avoid the crazy overpriced restaurants outside. For the amount of people & rooms, it was surprisingly peaceful/quiet. Staff was very friendly & helpful everytime for any inquiry.

New ZealandIf you go by bus, ask for directions to arrive at the place as google will suggest the shortest but the steepest and in bad conditions. The longer path is way better through a sealed street.
Nice views to the mountains. New apartment. Basic kitchen utensils enough for a quick meal.

AustraliaWifi was very very average. There are no photos of the kitchenette in the listing. FYI - The kitchenette was small with bare minimum of equipment (as expected from a kitchenette!). We managed to cook a decent pasta, but it required a bit of juggling as there is only one small countertop electric stove. Didn't impact our rating. FYI - Not the owners fault, but Ksamil in general is a tourist trap, we didn't do enough research before coming. The private beaches really ruin the experience. Really hard to recommend Ksamil to anyone during peak season. Didn't impact our rating of this hotel.
Aircon was great (necessary for the 40C+ days). Pool was good, but could use more sunbeds. Room was as described in the listing.
