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.).

Czech RepublicGood location. Not a big hotel but nice and very close to the own beach. Umbrellas at beach for free, bar is just steps from beach. If you want to discover Crete and live close to seaside at same time, it is very good option. Not far from Heraklion airport is good as well.

NorwayWe booked a superior studio and it was not stated anywhere on the description or pictures that it will be like a walkout basement. Had I known this I would have booked something else. For some it maybe a good choice as it’s very close to the beach entrance and pool.
The breakfast was good and varied. Wi-Fi works ok. Plenty of space at the free parking lot. Location is within walking distance to restaurants. Beachfront property with sun beds.

PolandIn general, the internet connection was very poor. So if you need it, you need to rely on your own. Also, the communication with the reception staff has room for improvement. There was one day with no running water due to an incident in town (obviously not the hotel’s fault), but we could not get a hold of anyone at the reception to get information. There is a deposit fee for the beach towels, and if you want it back you need to plan that in advance.
The location is simply perfect. Right by the beach and a walking distance from the town’s center. The apartment was spacious and had a very nice sea view. It was clearly renovated. The kitchen has all the essentials if you prefer to do your own cooking. The cleaning staff & bar/ restaurant staff were amazing, very helpful and attentive. The food & drinks at the restaurant were really good.

United KingdomThe fridge was very loud and it got very hot so we had to unplug it. There was no 'do not disturb' sign so the cleaning staff just came in and did the bed and cleaned the room. At one time we were asleep as the heat was too much and they let themselves in so that was awkward. You get a sink and microwave in the room but there is no washing up liquid, it would be helpful to have that. No one at the hotel asked us how our stay was which was a bit rubbish as I would hope they would want to know and improve. The lunch at the restaurant was very bland but its well priced,we only had it the once as it had no taste unfortunately.
The breakfast was nice, the location was incredible, the private beach was absolutely fabulous and very clean and the fact that you get free access to the sun loungers was much appreciated!! We had aircon in the room which was fantastic given the 40 degree heat!!!

LithuaniaThere are some details that should be fixed, but they are not essential. Our bathroom smell was bad, maybe pipes are not working well. Kitchen. If you are planning to use kitchen, take or buy all you need, because hotel doesnt provide any kitchen sponge, towel, fairy, solt, pepper... Just dishes. There were some moskitos at night and no mesh or other "security" on windows. We had funny accident, when we realized that during morning room cleaning our personal small towel was missing. So husband went to stuff premicies, but there where no stuff people. But fortunately he found all those dirty hotel towels and our little one was also there. :)
Very good place for family with children and teenagers. Nice pool. Sea is also in hotel teritory. Nights without parties. Special thanks for early breakfast packs. We had to leave early in the morning, so we asked for some food for breakfast, and got hudge packages. We liked our room orientantion - seaview was the best. We had almost 3 spacious rooms in our number with big balcony, that was so good. Breakfast is basic, but all of us found what to eat. For 3 days it was enough. Hotel is just near tawerns, markets and center of Malia. But at the same time not in noisy area.
