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 KingdomNothing about the property, next door is an abandoned development which will hopefully get finished sometime. You feel that you’re in an unfinished development!
Very well presented and comfortable, excellent bathroom. Lovely balcony with a view of the sea. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. Nice swimming pool with loungers.

MaltaThe side road that leads to the hotel and village is not tarmacked properly and it is not lit well so you have to drive with caution.
The apartment is spotless and very comfortable with spacious veranda overlooking the sea and mountains. It is located just outside the small village where you can have breakfast and buy amenities from a local minimarket and have a fantastic meal in one of the local restaurants. Maria is very sweet and welcoming and was available on whatsapp throughout the stay. The welcome cake and honey on check out were a very nice touch. As was the daily housekeeping that is not usually included in self catering apartments.

Absolutely wonderful experience in beautiful new building with awesome host. Rooms are brand new and clean, there is shop in reasonable vicinity (short enough to walk in flipflops, long enough to not hear traffic), swimming pool is clean and pleasant to jump in (however water is cold in October ;)). We were delighted and strongly recommend

GermanyNothing - everything was perfect
The location is quiet but still in short distance to the Center of the village. We loved the room, it was spacious and well equipped. Also the bed was really comfortable and the room had exterior blinds which made the room dark and good to sleep in. The staff is caring and super kind and makes everything happen, what they can. The rooms where very clean and the housekeeping cleansed every day properly. We really would recommend staying here.

This property is phenomenal. We were greeted by our house and she was so kind and even let us check in early and had our accommodation ready! We were in a smaller town in Crete, but close enough to walk to a tourist area for dinner, which was only 10 minutes away by foot. It was the perfect location to be out of the very populated areas, but still near accessible places to eat and shop.  Great view of the ocean!

United KingdomUtensils for cooking are basic but adequate. The hot water in the kitchen wasn't very hot - surprising as the bathroom was great. If everyone used the pool it would be very crowded. The pool area is quite compact. Only room for 8 sunbeds - could be difficult in high season. Location was ten minutes walk from the town which seemed OK on the map but it's up and down hills. It's next to a hotel water park which isn't very peaceful if the wind's in the wrong direction (music thumping, children enjoying themselves loudly). There is a car park but it's quite stony - better to park on the road. I chose the family suite even though there were just two of us as I wanted extra space. We thought it could be a bit crowded with four people. The bed was too hard for me and I barely slept the first two nights, my husband thought it was fine though. I spoke with the manageress about this, she told me the mattress is only three years old so I think it was just too firm for my liking.
Modern and stylish apartment. Spotlessly clean. Shower excellent with both overhead rainwater showerhead and hand-held shower. Always plenty of hot water in the bathroom. Complimentary toiletries. The pool was very clean, also surprisingly warm, we had it to ourselves most of the time in late June. There's a beautiful olive grove to two sides of it and it's hidden from the road on one side, so very private and pretty. The sunbeds and outdoor furniture are of good quality and very comfortable. We liked the fact we had two sunbeds and an umbrella in our private garden at the rear of the apartment which had views to the sea and the evening sun, so lovely and warm in the late afternoon. TV reception seemed good, we only turned it on once or twice. WiFi good. Air conditioning is very efficient. The manager made herself readily available at all times and responded quickly to requests. She is very professional in her approach. Thank you for the cake and croissants. The wardrobe storage in the apartment is excellent. The safe is very, very useful. The lighting is great and very atmospheric which leads to a sense of luxury (try out the lighting behind the bedhead and the two spotlights over the dining area). There are pool towels and a laundry service which we weren't expecting. The fridge is a reasonable size. Cleaning is every day and you can have towels and bedding changed as often as you want. Little extras like salt and pepper and washing up liquid and sponge supplied. Security is very good as the ladies who clean the apartments are there most of the day.

IsraelThe air conditioning device is super sophisticated - you cannot turn it on until all windows are closed and even then I had to restart the electricity. Suggesting the owners to turn this function off as it is a bit cumbersome to deal with it.
the room was nicely designed, modern, clean, it had a nice view to the sea, there is a very nice pool area which the kids loved. it is a short walk from some restaurants and the beach in this little village. there is a little kitchen in the room which is fully equipped - would love to have some coffee/tea there too to start your stay. Maria who is also the owner, gave us a very welcoming and warm welcome. She also gave us excellent recommendations for eating and beaches around.
