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.).

United KingdomSharing the apartment with a friend so we needed the sofa bed. This only worked as a single, which was fine for us. However the bed was very close to the kitchen area with hum of fridge etc. got used to it after awhile. We were lucky we were there early in season so otherwise it was very quiet. On our last night people moved in next door and we could hear them quite clearly.
Great location by the harbour and beaches, and the pretty village. One of the few unspoilt villages on that bit of the coast - highly recommended. Lovely manager, very helpful.

United StatesWe liked everything.
Our one bedroom apartment was very attractive, comfortable, and well equipped. Best of all it had a balcony overlooking the church and harbor and a great view in the opposite direction from our bedroom window. We would come back to Crete just to stay there in Panormos, a quiet, lovely village on the sea. Magda was a very kind, helpful host.

United KingdomThe beach next to the apartment block was very neglected. Apparently the local council do not regard it as a beach and therefore it has no facilities. It is such a pity because its used to be a nice little beach but is now becoming a bit of an eyesore.
The apartment was next to the beach and the village centre, so handy for everything. We had wonderful views over the harbour. It was well managed by Magda who was always cheerful and helpful and immediately available to deal with any issues. I left my ring in the apartment when I left and Magda parcelled it up and posted it home to Scotland for me. The cleaner provided a good service and we appreciated having fresh linen every third day.

GermanyThe kitchen were not really equipped for cooking. It did not disturb us too much because in the end we went out into one of the nearby restaurants which were all very good and economic.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Our rooms were located at the top with large balconies overlooking the sea. The rooms were really clean and the ladies at the reception very nice and helpful. The nearest beach was literally a one minute walk away, two more beaches nearby and all of them quite nice.

Romania- Fridge is abit small ( think mini-fridge) , not an issue for most people but worth mentioning - A certain humidity in the rooms .This is most certainly due to proximity to the water (<50m) , but it might be important if you have sensitivity to such things
- The beach was very close, you could hear at night the waves from the apartment with the windows open. We went every night to check how the waves break. - Magda and her colleague (hosts) were amazing. Good recommendations, always happy to help and very good communication - Panormos had such a nice spirit at night as it filled up with tavernas - In apt 1 we had a nice private garden opening from the bedroom, and there were lovely plants around - The hosts even managed to save a parking spot in front of the apt. when parking was full at night - internet was good enough for 2 people working remotely - good water pressure and hot water was always available - Adorable cats in front of the hotel. Many people bringing cat food there. Also minor charity for good cause available (e.g. collect bottle caps for wheelchairs) - Very close to tavernas around. (O' Makis was something special) - Cold water was waiting for us in the fridge upon arrival - Sheets/ towels / were changed once every 3 days, but trash was taken out daily - Small safe available - The view was amazing

GreeceThere was a bit of noise in the building, I think the soundproofing was not very good. And it was also close to a church, which meant hearing the bell sometimes early in the morning. So if somebody is a light sleeper, it is something to consider.
The location was very good, close to everything and to the beach. The apartment was spacious with a bedroom and a living room with a couch that could be transformed into a bed and a little kitchenette. Magda was very nice and hospitable, she offered a warm welcome, and she explained everything for the hotel and the area. She also offered to provide an umbrella if we needed for the beach.
