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.).

GreeceBathroom, the shower facility is a little adventurous and doesn't allow the curtain to close 100% which results in a wet floor all over

GermanyOverall it was a nice stay and total fine for the good price. The bathroom was tiny and the water hose for the shower was installed at the sink, so it was a bit complicated for showering, afterwards the whole bathroom was flooded. The door handle was broken.
Perfect location in the center, sea view from the balcony, good air conditioning, good price, really nice owners who help you with questions. Authentically greek accommodation.

Fantastic place to relax. In the center of the village , next to restaurants , supermarket below the apartments . The rooms have a fridge , dishes , a kettle . Daily cleaning and air-conditioning works perfectly. Also the wifi is perfect. The greatest asset of this place, however, is the host. The owner of the apartments and the supermarket is just a wonderful, warm and smiling man. Also the rest of the family members are very nice.

NetherlandsOur room was double booked apparently, They gave us another room in another building. Location was closer to the occean but very oud dated. We got a double room instead of a triple, it was small. We requested an non smoking room but there was an ashtray on the nightstand and the room smelled of smoke. Noisy building.
Good AC, fridge and bed. Close by the beach. .

GermanySee above
The room which I had booked was not available and they didn’t tell me before, so they just put me in another house at „Anna-Maria” nearby. That room was nicely located with view to the mountains and the rise of the moon :-), but was really dirty in many details and badly maintained. Cooking facilities where damaged - not even a chance to get some hot water for a tea. People where nice and apologized, but I would have expected a discount for all this failure.

GermanyEverything. Katerina and Stelios are wonderful hosts, very friendly, helpful and accomodating. The family-run hotel and supermarket have everything you need during your stay, right at the center of Kalamaki. Everything is beautiful and very clean, with daily room service. The long sandy beach (cleanest beach on Crete 2021!) is just ~2 minutes away, and two tavernas are across the street, as well as other shops and bakeries (one is even inside the supermarket). I warmly recommend this private little hotel! P.S.: A special highlight was getting to know the entire family, including the grandmother and children, who sometimes treat you to a little concert of traditional Cretan music! A wonderful family atmosphere!
