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.).

SwitzerlandAbsolutely nothing.
The house had everything we needed, the pool and garden were beautiful. Christos and his father were such lovely hosts and looked after us so well. For example, we arrived around 2 a.m., Christos was still waiting there and he had also cooked a meal for us. They had lots of fruit and sweets ready for us, we couldn’t even eat it all. It was just perfect, thank you so much for everything!!!

The house had everything! Equipped very well, there where a lot of beach/pool toys for kids. There were complimentary fruits, water, juice, breakfast stuff waiting for us. Rooms great! Pool amazing!

NetherlandsGreat and quiet location. It's a bit in the middle of nowhere, which we loved. The swimming pool is a great asset, it's nice and big. The house itself is a bit basic and actually felt a bit outdated, but since we didn't spent much time inside this didn't matter at all. Everything you need is there though, from two bathrooms to facilities like a toaster or a washing machine. The same goes for the garden which in itself is a bit basic. It does however have some very nice touches like a table around the base of a big olive tree. The view though is amazing. You look over some hills right to the sea. And it's very quiet as well. There are a lot of supplies laying around. Stuff you can take to the beach like umbrellas and even a cooling bag to (water) toys for the kids. The fridge was fully stocked with many bottles of water, juices and fruits. And there were cookies, bread, coffee, etc. on the table. Also a lot of information on all the local beaches. These were all a great touch and made us feel right at home. The house is right next to a building on one side and it's attached to a similar house on the other side. The gardens are for the most part separated by a wall/fence so the feeling of having a private home stays pretty much in tact. There are a couple of nice taverns in the area and some mini-markets, as well as a nice variety of local beaches.

ItalyThe master bedroom is a bit small; in fact the right side of the bed coincides with the wall. There is no bidet in the bathroom. Outside, the lawn / garden area could improve and be more cared for
The house is in a quiet and strategic position, very close to White Lake beach and the Chrysoskalitissa Monastery, a few minutes drive from Elafonissi and Kedrodasos beach. The house has everything you need for a holiday including air conditioning which works well. Christos was always available and present throughout the stay.

NetherlandsFrom the pictures and the description it was nog clear to us that this was not a stand alone building. On Google maps the pin to this place is not correct, so we did not see that this is a building sharing a roof with two others on both sides. When we arrived, we saw that we had neighbors; we could look directly on their property and their pool as well as they good at ours. They had really loud music on, which was not a great start to be honest. After an hour or two they stopped, but for the rest of the day we did not sit very relaxed, as we were not sure if they would start up again. In the end we were not bothered again and we had a lovely stay, but just to inform that a nice and quiet stay does not seem to be guaranteed here. If you do have quiet or no neighbors, it’s all fine ;)
Overall we had a good stay! Christos gave fast responses and clear instructions for us. The airco was nice and quiet and the pool was very clean and the sun did shine brightly on it all day. There are nice toys and stuff for the pool or beach available as well! In the village there are some nice Taverns within walking distance (we ate at Glykeria, which was great) and the supermarket has quite some things to offer. We had a good start of our round trip of Crete here :)

IsraelNothing. Everything was outstanding!!! We are very grateful and we will return. Thank you very much !!!!
It was our best holiday in Greece. The host met us to give us the keys. The house is completely furnished to allow to enjoy the beach: there were several sun umbrellas and chairs for the beach. The kitchen and fridge contained free food and drinks for us. The coffee machine had free coffee for a whole week. The house is new, and the pool is fantastic. The owners are so nice and hospitable, that when our car broke down, they came exclusively to help us. We are very grateful and we will return. Thank you very much !!!!

The best place in Crete! Brand new house, extremely well equipped kitchen, clean and enough big for 4 person swimming pool with seaview; on arriving we received a box of fresh tomatos, a bottle of delicious olive oil and plenty of food in the fridge; there was lettuce and herbs in the garden and fantastic table around the olive tree near swimming pool. There was tavern with cretan food just few minutes by foot. And owners - father and son were really friendly and helpful, every problem was solved immediately, thanks Chris for 2 additional glasses for wine!
