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 KingdomAbsolutely fantastic, mindblowing view, friendly host. Facilities are a bit basic, with aircon only in the main room not in the bedroom and light smell from the pipes. Overall I would definitely go again though just for the view and feel of it.

United KingdomThe cooking facilities are quite basic but enough to make breakfast or a simple dinner.
Razos was a great place to stay on Ithaki. We took the ferry from Sami, and a short taxi ride got us to the windmill where our host was waiting with the keys. She was very welcoming and helpful, organising our transfers all the way from Argostoli Airport and helping with suggestions throughout the week we stayed. The windmill itself is in a great location, with a beautiful beach for swimming about five minutes walk away, and a half hour walk into Vathy for shopping, cafés, and restaurants. We hired a car for some days e-bikes for others, but often we just walked! The accommodation is clean and comfortable, with amazing views and beautiful gardens. It's a very peaceful place but maybe not suitable for small children (lots of steps and quite wild surroundings). It has air-conditioning (a blessing after the walk up the hill!) but it's location means you often get a nice breeze during the day.

SwedenThe road leading up to the windmill is rather steep and curvy - so a small car is preferable :)
Living in this converted windmill was a very nice experience. Located secluded on a hillside with an amazing view of the islet to Vathy and the beautiful Dexa beach. Very welcoming hosts who offered us a gift basket with fruits and wine upon arrival. The host waited for us at Dexa beach and guided us up to the windmill. Highly recommended and ideal for larger companies to book both apartments (upper and lower). We we’re a family of three who stayed in the lower apartment on this occassion.

United KingdomIt certainly is not as described on the advert. The picture that sold it to me was the view outside the large window, however that is the top floor apartment. There are two apartments not the whole place as it says in the advert. We had the ground floor which had been set up for two single beds. We had to rearrange the room so I could sleep next to my wife. Even once we had done this, the beds were very uncomfortable with the springs digging into my ribs. The facilities inside are very basic. I would not have liked to cook dinner on a small hob and tiny oven. There was no instructions left for anything in the apartment we had no idea what to do with rubbish, air con, electrics etc... The air-conditioning unit is faulty and would not turn on properly most times, which is unfortunate as it drowns out the very loud gurgling noises the fridge makes. As others have said the road to the windmill is very very steep. The first time I just about made it in my very small hire car. In the end I basically chucked the car up the hill making sure I never stop until we got to the top. Good fun if a little scary for my wife in the passenger seat. Overall the only point that saved this place was the view as it was very expensive.
The view from the apartment is amazing. It was very relaxing watching the boats go in and out of Vathi. The terrace is lovely. Ithaca is an amazing island.

United KingdomNo hot water in kitchen and poor water pressure and temperature in shower. Coffee machine didn’t work properly. Too far from Vathy without hiring a car or paying for taxis. It was a picturesque building but too expensive for the facilities it provided. It was quiet but not clear on booking that the windmill is two apartments and you have to share the terrace so lacked the privacy we were expecting. The bathroom sliding door didn’t work and one of us was locked in

United KingdomHosts - communication. It was not at all clear in booking that we did not have the whole windmill to ourselves but that it was split into two separate’ properties’ - one upstairs and one downstairs, with shared outside space and parking etc. The website is misleading and needs to be changed. Communication (emails etc.) was very difficult - No or poor English - and they could definitely have been more helpful.
The location is obviously the best thing by far. Incredible 180 degree plus sea view.

SpainIt has a stunning view over one of the most peaceful bays in Ithaki, a great outdoor terrace to sunbathe in absolute privacy or eat under the pergola. It’s the ideal place if you’re looking for privacy: the only unexpected visitors were some peacocks who passed by in the evening.
