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.).

NetherlandsThe shower did not have a curtain so the bathroom gets a little wet.
The hospitality and helpfulness of the staff was beyond our expectations. They also have good expertise regarding car rental companies. The fact that it is run by a family makes it more personal so it feels like coming home at the end of the day. They try to make your stay as perfect as they can. Another important thing is the excellent location. It's close enough to the main street but far enough to not be bothered by the clubs and music.

Czech RepublicWe were happy. Beach is just 10 minutes walk. Not a problem.
We had really nice refreshing and relaxed time. Malia archeological site is just 20 minutes, to Knossos one have to take a bus from the Malia center.

United KingdomNothing at all!
We had an amazing stay at Danelis apartments. The rooms were very spacious and clean with great facilities. The pool area was definitely ahighlight - we spent many lovely days by the pool enjoying drinks and food from the bar. But our favourite part of the trip was by far the hospitality: Nikos and his family catered to every possible need and were extremely friendly and welcoming. Nikos even organised a karaoke night for us at the pool bar and was always around for a chat, when he wasn't making his signature cocktails (highly recommended!)

PolandFirst night we faced some issue with noisy neighbours but fixed by Makis immediately no issues till end of our stay.
First of all atmosphere created by whole family, starting with both brothers but also have to mention here about Stella (i hope correct writing here) who does fantastic job here by keeping apartments in very good order. Swimming pool which i think covers all guests needs as very clean and quite big + a lot of sun beds - no problem to find place here. Some trees (palms) so also you can find here a shade. Location far away from street where all the night clubs and pubs so no issue with noise in night time but really close to amazing Malia old town where many taverns. Nice drinks and food here.

United KingdomThe property was as expected as shown on photos
The pool and snack bar had a really good atmosphere. But the best part was the staff they were so lovely and would do anything they could to improve your stay. It was a short walk from the strip and from the old town with nice restaurants. Great value for money. Would 100% recommend for other girls holidays

We felt very welcome when we arrived at Danelis place. Nice clean rooms with a terras or balcony. The two brothers (Nikos and Makis) are the host and running the bar, mama does the cooking. Let them know what you want for diner and mama will prepare it. The family let you feel welcome and they are very helpful. They have a lot of humor and always interesting in you. They always ask you if are alright. Yolanda, Karin and Loraine

NetherlandsReally nice hotel near the malia strip but not on the strip so at night it is quiet but you can real easily go to the busy strip. It is also close to the old town of malia were there are a lot of nice restaurants. The rooms are clean with a big balcony and there is a nice pool to relax. There is also a dart board and a pooltable to play some games. The owners of this place made our stay extra fun, they were always up for a laugh and would do anything to make your stay more comfortable. Also they have the best raki in the whole island. We really enjoyed our stay here and I would definitley recommend it!
