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 KingdomEverything was perfect.
My apartment was large and spacious - well-stocked kitchen/lounge, bathroom and double bedroom with excellent amenities and facilities and in excellent condition. Very quiet during the day and night. No car noise at all. Spotlessly clean with a good shower and comfortable bed. A welcome-pack of fruit and drink was gratefully received. The apartment has two balconies with the front balcony overlooking Souda Bay and the back balcony off the bedroom looking into the hinterland with wonderful views of the mountains. The bedroom balcony had full sun all day and was protected from wind. The apartment has an excellent position on the hill overlooking Almyrida town and beach yet it is only an easy five minute walk to the glorious beach, shops and restaurants. Almyrida is a very close approximation of paradise - I have stayed in Almyrida many times - so to have the Manos Apartment as a base added so much more to the experience. The family who own and run the apartments are endlessly helpful and available for any problem that might occur. I would particularly like to thank Manos for looking after me like one of the family. I am definitely returning to wonderful Crete, Almyrida and the Manos Apartments.

Hong KongNothing.
This was one of our favourite stops on a tour around Crete. Perfect for couples who prefer an apartment to relax in and cook. We would have happily stayed longer there! Great views, and close to a beach with good restaurants. We had only a brief interaction with the owner, but he was friendly and seemed like he would have been willing to help had we needed anything. Free parking was a bonus!

SwedenNothing really, it would have been nice with some roof/shade on the the front outdoor seating, it got quite hot in the sun.
Nice apartment, full kitchen, really great beds and place to store your clothes. Beer and water in the fridge when we arrived, Outdoor seating both in the back and the front of the apartment. Parking just outside and the steep uphill is fine if you just give the car a bit of acceleration :-) Very friendly host there to help you. The view over the bay is fantastic and it's nice and quiet during evenings/nights. Happy to stay there again.

The host was extremely accommodating, gave us plenty of recommendations for restaurants and beaches, that were all excellent! The property was in a beautiful part of Crete. It has all the essentials you would need, close to restaurants, shops and a supermarket (yet still situated in an area away from the rest of the town). Our apartment also had a nice sunset view. Highly recommend!

AustraliaI think the AC would struggle a bit in summer in this apartment.
We had the whole top story apartment and balcony. The view and sunsets were amazing from there and the free beers in the full size fridge were an unexpected bonus. The rooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean and Nikos was so friendly. It is really only a short walk to the beach and restaurants. A bit of a hill walk home but well worth it.

United Kingdomneed little bit more cutlery and glasses but I am being picky !
lovely location up a hill but the view is worth it. stayed in apartment 4 and had large terrace with loungers and table and chairs . it’s a sun trap. Son does all the communication on line very helpful , his father manages the properties x 5 . Always on hand to help , cleaning every 2 days , not intrusive always arranged a time to suit . The value for money is great , May be a bit older style but quaint clean and larger style rooms with vaulted ceilings . insect nets on windows and shutters . air con in bedroom . garden for children swings and sun beds . just overall a great price great service and very helpful when we asked for our daughter to visit last minute for 4 nights . resort is typical seaside Greek resort , lovely restaurants few choices of beaches sun beds etc. walk to Kalyves 40 mins , plaka 15 mins . Go on Kalyves boat cruise it’s a nice day out from Kalyves . taxi services very good based in almyrida . we didn’t need a car airport 45euro

United KingdomNothing, it was all good.
Lovely clean comfortable apartment in a very quiet area. As I was on my own it was important to feel safe - and I did. Manos was waiting at the apartment for me when I arrived and had kindly left wine, water and fresh fruit in the fridge. The apartment was on the ground floor with a large terrace, where I spent most of my time. The view was gorgeous, and I understand it's even better from the upper floors! The bed was comfortable and I slept well. The town and beach is 5 mins walk - down a steep hill so be aware it's uphill coming back!
