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.).

As returning visitors to Giorgos & Maria, we were delighted to be back. A quick trip at the end of last season had us staying elsewhere and ‘elsewhere’ is not as good! On this visit we chose one of the first-floor apartments - very similar to those on the ground floor, but with an elevated view and a slightly more private balcony. As always, the hospitality from our hosts made us feel welcome right from the start; friendly, full of advice and local knowledge and always happy to help in any way they can. Equally, if you just want to be left to your own devices, they sense this and you’ll hardly know they’re around… apart for the immaculately serviced rooms and the smells coming from Maria’s kitchen. Speaking of Maria’s kitchen: if you’re lucky enough to be invited to dine on their homemade food, usually served on the patio, think hard before turning it down. Maria is famous for her moussaka, fish and beef stifado. When we were there, an evening meal with salads, breads, a main course, beers and after-dinner fruit & raki (lots) was nicer, and cheaper, than many of the surrounding restaurants. Overall, our stay with Giorgos & Maria was exactly what we needed, the perfect blend of relaxation and exploration, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommended - thank you both.

We had a great stay at Giorgos' and Maria's. They were attentive and friendly. The apartment is roomy and it looked newly built/renovated. All appliances in the apartment worked smoothly. The terrace too was very comfortable. Totally recommend!

NorwayWe thought we could have nice dinners there. According to old reviews it seems to be nice to eat there. But now they have stopped serving dinners. Sad, but i can understand it, because they do must of the work themselves.
Everything was fine!

RomaniaBest place to stay for a relaxing vacation. Far from the crowds and close to great beaches. Very clean, spacious and with every necessary amenities. The homemade food was excellent and we appreciate (and very much like) the olive oil we received upon departure. Ευχαριστώ πολύ! Maria & Giorgos are very nice and kind people, we can't wait to revisit.

NetherlandsThis is more a luxury issue but the mattress could’ve been a bit softer for both of us. It was fairly hard.
View from the balcony. Room and balcony are very spacious. Close enough to the center to grab the car and be there in a few minutes, but far enough to enjoy the silence in the area.

RomaniaThe hosts locked one of the remotes temperature for the AC. This made it impossible to increase the temperature for continuous cooling during the night on a higher temperature or for decreasing the temperature when we needed extra cooling. This could be fixed with a phone with IR but still an inconvenience. Some of the furniture and equipment was on the older side of things but still not bad. It was hard/impossible to sit 4 people on the balcony protected from the sun. If you don't come by car I would probably reconsider if I were you.
The rooms were clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were very nice and provided tips and advice for visiting the area. Both bedrooms had ACs and there was also a fan available. The "living room" was pretty large. Pretty good view, relaxing. The location allows you good access to some of the south attractions on the island and provides easy access to Heraklion (via car).

ItalyEverything was fine, the room got just very hot during the day and the air conditioning took some time to refresh it.
Maria was extremely kind and gave us all sorts of advice. It was a pleasure staying here, she is just the most amazing host ever! When we left we wished we could have stayed more. The room was big enough, the bathroom was super clean and we had a nice balcony too. The location is great!! Near some amazing beaches but very quiet too
