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.).

MaltaLack of communication ended up with a difficult port pickup, owners are not on property to resolve any issues, like broken wine bottle opener, locked safe. Also, if you take the breakfast option, it is rather unclear where their beach taverna is. If I understood correctly, it is rather far away. Could be wrong on this so please clarify with the owner. That said, it was a pleasant stay and we had no problem with a late afternoon checkout.
Great location and awesome view of the harbour and of the Kastro on the opposite hill. Beautiful by day and fairytale like at night. Apartment was cosy, had a lot of extras such as a clothes iron, hair drier, coffee machine, full refrigerator, hob, and more. Owner even left us a complimentary bottle of wine, orange juice, large water, and a beer.

Large room and bus stop in front if the house, supermarket opposite 2min away, 5min to the beach. 2min to 2 delicious taverns down the hill, too. Highly to recommend!!

ItalyBooking x Caldera My husband and I, with friends, stayed at Caldera Studios for a week. The rooms are comfortable, clean and nicely furnished, and the view is gorgeous, right in front of the Chora and the line of charming windmills that decorate the top of Astypalea. The terraces are also well furnished with couches, comfortable chairs, sunbeds and a small pool. The owner, Antoni, and his nice family, are incredibly efficient and caring. They were always ready to help and solve any problem we had, not necessarily related to the rooms (there weren’t any) but also, for instance, helping us choose the places that were most appropriate for us to go, or fetching us from the airport. Their restaurant with associated beach, in Livadi, are also nice and comfortable, and the food is very good. When we left Astypalia we were sorry to leave them just as if we had left some precious, newly acquired friends.

SwedenThere was no corkscrew for the complementary wine bottle, which is obviously not a big deal.
Magnificent view of the sea, the port and the Castle on the hill! The room was large and very clean, and the balcony was also quite big for two people, and again with the best view in all of Astypalaia! A perfect romantic, almost luxury, apartment for two!

United KingdomIt would have been nice to have someone on-site to give us our room keys when we arrived at the time I arranged, rather than having to phone to organise. This seemed to be a common thing with guests whilst we were there.
The room was spacious with very comfortable beds and immaculately clean - well done to the lovely cleaning lady. No casual seating in the studio, but more than enough outside. Beautiful pool, with a fantastic view. The property looks over the bay towards the castle and Chora, giving amazing ambience in the evenings, whilst being walking distance to the port. Plenty of equipment if you want to self cater. Parking is limited outside, but on street is perfectly fine. We would definitely recommend if you want peace and comfort with a view.

United KingdomWere initially given an apartment which did not match the description of the self catering apartment originally booked and owner was very reluctant to accept this was a problem. Eventually moved us to accomodation that was as described on booking confirmation after we had made it clear we would not accept accommodation that did not have the specific self catering facilities we had booked & paid for. A stressfull and unpleasant start to a holiday.. Accomodation we eventually got had very basic range of catering utensils. Bathroom had poor lighting and ventilation (window opened out to a brick wall?) Daily room service but concerning that cleaners assumed it was OK to enter without knocking and no consideration for privacy.
Panoramic view over nearby harbour and Venitian Castle from private patio. Supermarket nearby. Beach a short walk away. Free pick up from Airport.

United KingdomNo one to check us in and no information. We never did work out where to find our inclusive breakfast. After asking via WhatsApp we were told some beach (don’t know where) less than 1km walk. Odd !! Air con unit did not work to its full potential. Our room number 6 had a small balcony which was bit of a tight squeeze with 2 chairs, table and umbrella. Needed to rearrange furniture to shut the shutters.
Fantastic views of harbour and castle. Close to port

United KingdomChinese furniture, broken sun bed, pool water not so clean, no customer service. For a “luxury studio” this is not the right standard.
We wish we could leave a great feedback as the location is stunning, but unfortunately we did not have a great experience. The manager refused to pick us up from the port claiming no boat was arriving at that time (we came from a different hotel) so we had to walk and find it ourselves, then we never received any answer when we tried to contact him and the only one we received was in Greek. On the good side we had a bottle of wine waiting on our bed, but the only available bottle opener was broken. Overall a beautiful location but really poor / inexistent management and customer care.
